    I'm offended. Remove this at once dang. This is gender stereotyping and misogyny. We don't need this kind of harangueing in here.

    I asked "why doesn't apple allow or support it", not "why can't it be done?"

    Why was the harangueing ok when Adrienne was doing it? Was it because it was done with the proper political bent?

    I wonder why apple doesn't allow or support Linux? I would happily buy a Mac pro (trashcan) or a mbp if it had solid Linux support. I think their hardware is awesome. But I have no…

    I wonder if you could compromise and use powdered concrete in a closed system? High powered fans could blow the fine powder upward in a silo so it would act like a liquid. Then lar…

    The same "they" you are referring to. The ones writing the checks. I don't care about the precise technicality that enables wage suppression. I literally don't care. The constituti…

    > but then the government pays... That's my point. They have the money, but something-something..."policy"...something-something.... It goes to corporations instead of people.

    Shows a contradiction/hypocrisy. They have the money, but just choose to spend it on corporations and not humans.

    I'm surprised they didn't do something truly clandestine like embed encrypted texts into photos of merchandise and list them on amazon/alibaba

    It's wasteful, but probably no more than injection molding factories that make cheap plastic junk.
