The crossover I didn't know I wanted.

Great explanation! That makes a lot of sense. No real value for them to rock the boat.

I like this

I wonder if that'll end up being true. I'd guess these constituents represent voters that watch porn at least as much on average as anyone else. I'm going to go ahead and guess above average. They might get tired of this and push for change. But I'm also admittedly less educated on how our political system works than I should be and might be overestimating how much influence Florida Man has because he's disgruntled at having to jump through hurdles to fap.

Yes, you're right. But that doesn't fit with their "think of the children" moral compass. Which isn't even pointing the correct direction, but good luck convincing them of that.

I feel like my compass analogy isn't the best, but eh.

Or unix beard. Though perhaps not as tidy, stereotypically.

Looks like Win7 came out in 2008. So did KDE4 https://timeline.kde.org/. I've pretty much always used KDE so it's a good measuring stick for me.

My completely subjective opinion is they were pretty equivalent. Win7 wasn't bad. But neither was KDE4.

I have an account there that I use as a junk email account and their android calendar app. Nothing else. I used to use davx5 and caldav via my primary email provider but I had issues with it losing notification settings on recurring events. I may go look for a different calendar solution. I'll probably still use it for junk mail.

I use the following services, and have for a couple years now I think.

Mailfence for email Mullvad for VPN

I feel like the cost would come from the quantity of cybernetics and time to install them. So I imagine if the dog was about 14% the size of the Six Million Dollar man it'd work out to be about the same.

I live between the tech conservative and tech paranoid with a splash of distro hopping.

I skipped the iPod as well. Had a Creative Zen Touch, which I thought was a great device. Same kind of deal, it showed up as a removable drive or MTP device or something like that. Can't remember for sure.

I thought Apple was cool back in the system 6/7 days. I don't know if it actually was. I was a kid back then and just got to use it a little in school. I didn't daily drive it. But I did like it based off the usage I got.

When they switched to a BSD* derivative, it became less the the thing I remembered liking and my interest waned. Then they switched to x86 and it became something I felt was completely disassociated with what I considered to be a Mac. And while I could see those were smart choices on their part, I no longer cared for what they were offering.

And now I hate the company for the sorts of things the meme touches on. Not that consumer hostile practices are anything new for them, just more opinionated about it now.

That was rantier than I'd anticipated when I started, but already made it this far.

• no hate intended on BSD. I run OpenBSD and FreeBSD on some things. More that it failed to match my nostalgia, I guess.
