There’s indeed some decent people in this world. Don’t throw away your perfectly functional PC because the corporate overlords think it’s time due you send more of your hard earned money their way. Remember this with your smartphones as well. Once I degoogled my phone, I increased the lifespan of this 2017 Samsung hardware I’m writing this comment on. It released about 5 GB worth of software bloat, the battery runs longer, and there’s no breaks in performance. I’m tired of “programmed obsolescence”. If you don’t know what this term is, you should. It should be illegal for companies to do this!!! And the software “injection” to render hardware obsolete is the most obvious pathetic display of it. Thank goodness that there’s people like this still battling back.

Great callback. I haven’t thought of Thank You For Smoking in ages.

That is a prescient little film from my teenage years back in earlly 00’s. The film was a nice stab at the culture of “spin” and how lobbying was gonna dig us into the hell we are now.

Hmmm, Thank You For Posting would be an actual relevant sequel in the time of endless sequels. Backdropping it with the lobbying for the Turd Reich and the ascension of Fascism and you got something there…

Thank you for reminding me of Thank You For Smoking.
