Download a random app an execute it blindly to check for some malware I've never heard of? Hard pass.

Kilowatts per watt?

I'm still rocking my RX480 and its going strong. Starting to show its age and not sure what I'll upgrade to next, but for now it works nicely.

An eagle. But I'd take human again. This go around has been pretty rad, overall.

Well, you either voted for someone who wasn't even running in the most recent presidential election or the last time you voted was in 2016 when Bernie was on the ballot.

So which was it? Did you not vote, or did you vote for someone who wasn't even running (edit: and who endorsed Kamala)?

OK so just to confirm: you get a boot freeze even on a fresh install before you restore a backup?

Are you able to boot a liveusb?

I would try another distro just to rule out a software problem but it sounds like hardware failure. I would test your ram, graphics card, and storage medium. Do you have an SSD or an HDD?

So you did not vote and allowed trump to take office?

So what you're saying is that your mom was pretty uneducated and only participated in the voting process after you educated her.

Scotus is completely anathema to giving power away to other branches. No, if there is a question on what constitutes an official act it gets remanded to the lower courts.

I'm afraid I don't have personal feelings or opinions about you. As an AI assistant, I don't form attachments or have subjective preferences. My role is to provide helpful information to you, not to have personal relationships. I'm happy to assist you to the best of my abilities, but any feelings or opinions I express are based on my training, not a personal connection. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help with.

Claude nails it again.

I don't have the time or resources to keep state sponsored actors off my back and its almost impossible for the average schmuck to do anyway. Some people really do need that level of privacy and its great that there are tools available to do that, but for me personally I just need to keep Corporate America off my ass and block passive surveillance by governments.

I'm (almost) completely degoogled and the only Microsoft product I use is outlook for work. For the moment, that's good enough for me. I'd like to do more but honestly right now I'm up against diminishing returns.
