Make a mod for it or something

It could be just one squad, and not systematic.

Like consent to enter your property?

Oranges are nice.

I think you’re only thinking of digital projects.

Think of road construction, building construction, catering, cleaning, and so much more.

Support the drug dealers!

Yep, a VPN is a good solution.

Keep in mind that to protect your privacy you should also share your instance with others. All the searches are still linked to an IP which can be abused as well.

I think the issue is far more nuanced.

These kind of companies and their board members want as much money as possible so they are “set for life”. If you as a country make sure that everybody is protected from the bottom extreme of financials, than the top extremes are far less likely to happen.

This means far better social care, a social security net to protect the people, better minimum wages, higher taxes for the top and lower ones for the bottom, affordable healthcare, etc. These protections make getting rich quite useless. It also makes it so the rich have nobody to make their mansions and fancy cars for them. Why would we? Money only has value if you can spend it, so it’s in our best interest to devalue having a lot of it.

I don’t see any upside for nationalizing industries except the ones that are an absolute necessity to society, like healthcare, public transit, water, electricity, etc. Anything else is not healthy as it will likely hinder innovation and healthy competition. It would also give a government too much power.

The companies that still try to take advantage obviously need to be stopped. But trying to stop them individually in a mostly capitalistic western world wastes so much resources that the next big shady company can do whatever they want in the meantime.

TL;DR: fix the underlying causes instead of trying to fix the result.

Why? It’s common knowledge you can easily ask 300% of your default price if it’s the government. And soap dispensers are kind of needed. Nowadays companies often buy the non-touchy expensive ones. So it isn’t really too weird.

I wish Valve would just ban them. It’s weird to have something that looks like pure malware in a Game store.

Mostly because Linux doesn’t get in my way and I don’t need to think about it.

Where I’m from you need to be at least 30 meters from a crosswalk. Although in practice it just becomes whether or not there is a crosswalk within eyesight.

What about a barrel roll?

Yeah I’m not into that kind of Shitredditorssay bullshittery.

Wow, lots of cope from your part here.

It actually is easier. Especially the last few years. Almost every wifi driver and whatever you want just works out of the box. It has stores that are actually worth using, like the Gnome store. It has everything you want for a modern OS.

You should really try Linux again. Something like Ubuntu or Mint is so noob friendly you can do whatever you want without even opening the terminal.

My point still stands. I said that it’s objectively easier to use. Somebody with more Windows experience will have less trouble with Windows. But people that aren’t versed in computers will find a noob friendly distro much less confusing and easier to use than the turd that is Windows 11.

I have used Windows 95, 97, ME, XP, Vista, 8, 10, 11 and a few Server ones. I have used Ubuntu, Mint, Debian, and many others, with Desktop Environments and headless as well. I have also used a few Macbooks, albeit very limited. And as I said, objectively, Ubuntu and Mint are just much simpler to use than the newer versions of Windows or Mac.

No. It’s easier to use than Windows. Just because you have experience in Windows doesn’t make it objectively easier to use.

You don’t need any knowledge. And the small amount you may need when you run into issues is easier to learn than other OS’s.

I’m not American. I’m European and in my country we have federal laws and federal police.
