I thought up/down wasn’t for approval/disapproval, but to vote if the post was worth reading. In other words, a well written, factual article about a topic you disagree with should have a good number of up votes.

So the actions of one person, from one country are indicative of everyone from that country. Wow, how intelligent!

Religion is a great scam.

1. Convince people there is a god.
2. Convince them that you know what god wants.
3. Tell them what god wants (here is where you tell them whatever you want in order to take advantage of them)
4. Convince them that if they do not obey god (what you tell them) that they will suffer for eternity.

Now you’ve got them in the palm of your hand.

Selling out.

If the top bar is set up as a menu bar, it could save space on the screen when multiple horizontally placed windows (without individual menu bars) are on the screen. Other than that, I think the general top bar stuff can just be in the bottom bar.

The thing stopping me from using Arch is that most programs come out as debs and you have to wait for them to show up in the AUR. Example: when Mullvad VPN first came out it was only available as a deb. How long did it take to show up in the AUR? Who made that available? Was it the Mullvad folks or someone else? That’s the kind of thing that concerns me.

How many years would a loan have to be before it would just be considered rent? Is that the plan? Never let anyone own anything, just keep paying “rent”?

The are realizing the true power of religion.

I find tiling more efficient because

1. I can have predetermined layouts per desktop where my often used programs are.
2. I only have to purposely move windows out of the way if I’ve made the floating on purpose, and
3. Less mouse use and more keyboard use for changing the layout, resizing windows, changing to another window …

The more I use tiling, the more advantages I find. At this point I think I could use any desktop as long as I had Krohnkite functioning tiling.

Profit first, anything else a far second.

I wanted to give tiling a chance. I decided to use Krohnkite for a week to give it a chance. At first I didn’t care for tiling but quickly got into it and now I love it. Sometimes to really know if something is going to work for you or not, you have to give it some time. I’ve used this approach for other things (not all work out) but for Krohnkite it did for me. Also, don’t forget to check out all the Krohnkite options.

Do RSS feeds count as a “service”? I fear one day they will go away and that will be the end of my efficient way of keeping up with things I am interested in.

The true powers of religion, controlling people and taking their money for your own enrichment. People need to wake up!

Aren’t the pot smokers more mellow and less likely to fight/shoot/kill someone. I think drinkers stand a better chance of violence. How about we leave both groups alone. Case closed … next?

So the Christian God of the old testament caused autism by being infatuated with dick tips. Oh the Christian Nationalist are going to lose their shit over this.

Join a bunch of communities that you may be interested in to fill up your feed with a bunch of stuff to read. That way, if you want to take a break and read stuff, you can look here rather than on Reddit. You can look for communities here that are a close match to what you had on Reddit. Over time, you can dial them in and hopefully not feel the need to go back to Reddit.

I never go back and just to read Reddit. I only go there if a web search looking for something in particular takes me there.

I was thinking that these companies would be making a lot of money and people with money would love to invest in them. This would further split people as those invested would want the companies to thrive and those that couldn’t afford to invest …

I do see how being private corporations would work too.

Since not many people have answered, I’ll share mine even though it would happen outside the 3 year window.

All pollution standards will be dropped. The air will become so bad that homes will have to have active filtration and people will have to have active personal protection when they go outside. Both of these active devices will run on a subscription plan controlled by publicly owned companies. Can’t pay, can’t breath. The same will apply to water.

Private equity suck the life (value) out of a company until there is nothing left. That is probably what will happen here.

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Both Republicans and Democrats want it that way.
