this has been me for the last six months updating ansible playbooks written by people that no one remembers because of problems documented by managers that no one also remembers because they all quit 10ish years ago due to the shit pay. lol

i wonder if trump sees nato as dead weight since most of it’s members didn’t bother with defense spending as much as the united states does.

either that or spain has to do a balancing act between criticizing fascists/genociders and ensuring that those fascists/genociders don’t foster political violence for spaniards… again.

i guess it’s just another example of people not bothering to look beneath the surface of a soundbite or slogan that sounds good.

i wonder the same thing myself. lol

dang! got me/you there. i didn’t know i/you was that smart. lol

i was going to say this.

are you me? lol

the most galling thing about this is that most will continue to insist that we’re still following the rules based world order.

this is especially heinous knowing that a good portion of ice agents are brown and black people.

i wonder if something like this would ever happen given that the united states is practically un-invadeable compared to germany with the 2 biggest oceans on opposite sides that include an american dominated navy along with 2 buffer states to the north and south that are economically and politically dominated by the united states.

were germany in the same geographic spot and had the same economic and military dominance; the 3rd reich would still be a thing.

Given the vast Western funding flowing through Ukraine’s security apparatus, violent infighting over control of resources has become increasingly common.

it’s strange to image that mafia style hits are taking place during a war, but i suppose it makes sense given how much money is flowing into ukraine from europe and the united states.

this happens a lot when i have to use the shift for control key.

im a linux user, so the control key hits me particularly hard.

i hope she does; she’s so well spoken and accomplished.

i also hope that she’s rich and well connected enough so that she can continue her work and afford a decent living.

do you buy directly from tongeng? i was always under they assumption that they didn’t sell to individuals.

mine’s on its last legs since i’m such a klutz w it; but it’s a trooper like my tuxedo was.

i’m referring to its notoriety, not its origin.

very true and i’m waiting for them to expand further into their laptops for my next purchase.

i like how you use the incel mascot; never seen a freudian slip as a comment before.

how long before the united states joins into the fray to counter the chinese monopoly on rare earth minerals?

(assuming that they haven’t already).

when i bought one, they were nothing more than re-badged clevo and tongfeng laptops.

that means that they costed a little bit more than windows based laptops with the same specs; but it also means that there was no headaches with hardware compatibility and that the battery life was better if you chose your hardware correctly. (it’s also smooth sailing if you pay for the support).

i bought from kfocus most recently and it turns out it’s not any different than tuxedo and i suspect that all the linux laptop companies are the same; besides system76 who have started building their own laptops instead of re-badging clevo/tongfeng.
