The Great Rock ‘n’ Roll Swindle was a cheap cash-in thrown together with various outtakes, oddities, and such…and yet it’s as punk as it gets. On a meta level, it brilliantly deconstructs the music industry, rock & roll itself, and a few other things as well.

It’s fun, too.

Honestly, no. I actually prefer a bit of background noise.

Maybe the next generation of Rickrolling should involve providing a link to a real video but disguising it to look like the Rickroll link?

Wasn’t that part of the point?

Yeah, if I hadn’t been so committed to Rexit, I doubt I would have stuck around long enough to find a UX that I liked. Just to name one, it’d be nice if MLMYM were a default skin.

Not sure why anyone is surprised…they’re all bootlicking corporations that don’t want the mob boss to fuck with their mergers and/or investigate them for their various crimes.

I can’t wait for every vehicle to introduce this, thus leading to a perverse incentive whereby drivers go out of their way to avoid stopping as much as possible. How could it go wrong?

The most pissing thing is that the Microsoft “support” forum is always the top search result. Sometimes it occupies 5 or more of the top search results.

…but I haven’t had to deal with that since I switched to Linux last year, so…yay!

Yeah, every time I think about getting Doordash, they sucker me in with promises of $1 delivery fees, etc. Then I take the time to find out what I want, put it in my cart, get excited, and…then I see the final price.

That’s when I close out of my browser and go preheat my oven so that I can put in a frozen pizza.

You mean to tell me that I DON’T need an AI-powered faucet?

“Make America Great Leap Forward Again”

Linux Mint isn’t perfect, but at least it’s not constantly trying to steal my shit or force something on me that I don’t want.

Good. Can every other company please do this too??

Reminds me of something they used to make us chant in elementary school assemblies when our principal took the stage.

“2-4-6-8, who do we appreciate? Dr. Thomas!”

I know this has nothing to do with my home computer, but this just further affirms my decision to switch to Linux earlier this year.

Those were very interesting reads! Thanks for sharing.

“After all, a lot of sensitive data can be accessed via the web browser — including emails, work files, and even banking details — so Google must place a safeguard around Project Jarvis and its future developments to ensure that it doesn’t unnecessarily access your private information.”

Narrator: They did NOT place any safeguards around the project.

Thank goodness for Linux.

Wait until they hear about cell phones.

Philosophy students: Turn up with the textbook along with all of their notes, and write a dissertation on why it all qualified as “one-sided.”
