Our best hope is that companies outside the US stop buying Microsoft. People will need to produce computers for them. Then we in the US can import them and run Linux.
‘Someone, do something about our problem so we can take advantage of it’
Fuck this is exhausting
"Some adult needs to come fix my problems for me" seems to be super common these days. It's partly why the US is in the state it's in, but certainly not limited to the US.
Its a reality. Why does apple use usb c now? Because someone else got tired of their shit.
Do you say similar about all the corporations and governments who have relied on the US for decades? Hmmm?
Yes. Yes we do. But please fix you god damned country
Yep, spoken like a true American.
I suppose you mean tech? Many parts of the world offer value for money products. Had it not been the US in anything any corporation needs, someone else will step up.
Besides which most corporations rely on China more than the US now.
Another thing shared and cooperation offered.
Fix your problems instead of expecting others to step in.
