Making a better product is the least efficient way to make a profit in capitalism. You’d make far more by forming a cartel and price fixing, partnering with a capital management fund to undercut the market until you drive your competition out of business and become a monopoly or simply selling a shit product for a premium and using the extra revenue to suppress bad reviews and fabricate good social media buzz.

Update your browser, OS and other software promptly. Same for whatever network devices you use.

Don’t use an admin/root account as your daily driver. Use an unprivileged account and elevate as needed.

Keep a backup of your important data in offline / immutable storage.

McConnell has killed far more people than Bin Laden. Just the number of people who die from lack of affordable medical care is 15 9/11s every year.

I kind of get it for fundamentalist Christians. If you believe in a god who is both a murderous psychopath and practices collective punishment, it makes some kind of sense.

I have zero desire to see genocide apologia and Russian propaganda, so that sounds good to me.

There’s a huge difference between leftists and tankies. They’re obviously the latter. Nobody but tankies want to deal with tankies.

Hating tankies is a neutral stance, as is hating fascists and neo-confederates.
