Also, in 1992, when this article came out: you couldn't just walk into Walmart and get a CD with Debian or Slackware on it (still cant but thats another story). If you wanted the latest reliable word processor, email, hardware drivers and access to excel you basically had no choice but to slap down $100 for a Windows or OSx install. Only enthusiasts, academics and scientists had the bandwidth capacity to download and update an entire OS in 1992. CD burners themselves were $10 000 in 1992.

good thing the earth is so tiny and most of the universe completely misses this shit.

excuse me but, while the US torpedoed an Iranian oil tanker in the strait of Hormuz I was able to recycle 17 aluminum cans.

in the OG Matrix: Cypher isn't evil because he betrays everyone and gets some people killed, which is undoubtedly an evil act. No, Cypher is inherently evil because he not only doesn't care, but he actively chooses ignorance. He CHOOSES to go back to sleep. This is the avg American. They chose ignorance because they WANT to be mesmerized and lied to, Americans enjoy and celebrate it. IGNORANCE IS BLISS.

yeah alright sure: maybe SOME people will get hurt and SOME people will die, I get it. But now just imagine, if you will: the fabulous wealth and PROFIT generated for our shareholder and stakeholders by exactly just such a scenario! People, (human beings that is) are replaceable, quarterly earnings reports are NOT!!

All we need is a bit of election fraud here, some regulatory capture there and... voila! As long as the long term profits (for a few) out pace the short term investment(everyone else), than who cares?!

Whats goiong on tik tok and insta and roblox??

Anyone who questions us, well call them communist antifa and throw them in jail. which jail you ask? NOBODY KNOWS!!! ITS DEMOCRACY.

i mean /s? really tho?

also invoked unconstitutional back to work legislation to break legal and legitimate federal union strikes: postal workers, rail workers, airline workers, CUPE. just to name a few

Back to work legislation violates the charter: https://hillnotes.ca/2025/10/07/constitutional-protection-of-the-right-to-strike/

Liberals (led by trudeau) and cons team up to continually violate this right.
