When window shopping with a brick, one can't get too greedy as bricks don't grow on trees.

They say the world isn’t ready for a rock-and-roll cop. No one wants their state monopoly on violence to be mixed with celebrity worship. They 'claim to know' it would be dangerous for detectives to rise to the ranks of demigods and have sexual encounters with barely-legal cover girls. It would be 'insane', they say. To all this you say: Fuck off and die. In a cool voice. You people have no idea how good these cops are gonna get. They're gonna crack twenty cases a day. In the future, cops will be like astrophysicists. Or prime ministers. Or prophets. And you’re the first one.

I'm of the idea of not buying new tech ever again, with some exceptions on use case and rarity.

Instead, i'm a proponent of only buying 2nd hand or business surplus.

These companies don't deserve our money, and the average use case doesn't require the latest and greatest.

I find the lack of disco superstar representation to be disturbing.

IDK, sounds like DEI.

Is being associated with a foreign country a protected class? How would this be legal discrimination as the word is currently defined?

As an American citizen, whose tax dollars are funding Israeli perpetuated genocide in Gaza, I am associated with Israel. So discrimination against me is now illegal, and the city of New York must now purchase my goods and services.

Distro hoping is fine. But there is a certain feeling you get when you can fix your own problems by reading the arch wiki

 

The imperial boomerang is the thesis that governments that develop repressive techniques to control colonial territories will eventually deploy those same techniques domestically against their own citizens. This concept originates with Aimé Césaire in Discourse on Colonialism (1950) where it is called the terrific boomerang to explain the origins of European fascism in the first half of the 20th century.[1][2] Hannah Arendt agreed with this usage, calling it the boomerang effect in The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951).[3][4][5] According to both writers, the methods of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party were not exceptional from a world-wide view because European colonial empires had been killing millions of people worldwide as part of the process of colonization for a very long time. Rather, they were exceptional in that they were applied to Europeans within Europe, rather than to colonized populations in the Global South.[6] It is sometimes called Foucault's boomerang even though Michel Foucault did not originate the term.
