I haven’t been able to come up with a good explanation yet. Previously, I thought it was just plain stupidity and ignorance. Now, I think it might have something to do with the way media manipulates the masses. Still not satisfied with my own explanation though. Is it the culture? Modern tribalism? Cognitive biases? Who knows.

A Washington Post-ABC News-Ipsos poll found that 39% of U.S. adults approve of Trump’s handling of the presidency; a CNN/SSRS poll found that 41% of Americans approve; and a NBC News Stay Tuned Poll found that 45% of U.S. adults approve.

Turns out, Trump is more popular than Musk, but all of these numbers are still amazingly high.

It’s basically just an alternate home feed with the first 2 videos mildly related to what you were looking for. The rest are there to distract you from getting stuff done. The whole point is to boost engagement, watch time and all the other social media cancer terms.

Well, that explains a lot. You must be new here.

It’s a long standing tradition in c/nottheonion. You stumble upon a strange article, link it here and wait for the sweet sweet upvotes to roll in. As it stands, it looks like you were aiming for a different community, and missed.

And the link?

Simon Clark also made a video where he comments on that press release. It was tragic, hilarious, horrifying, surprising, disappointing and everything in between.

Really depends on how you intend to use Windows. Once upon a time I thought that was a great solution for communicating with an ancient piece of windows specific hardware. Turns out, you really need to keep that old W98 computer around unless you are willing to upgrade to new analysis hardware that costs about as much as a nice car. Home users probably never run into issues like this.

Nobody does.

You missed your stop. You were supposed to step off at 1930s Germany, right? Well, now we’re already headed towards medieval Spain. You might like the inquisition though.

What about those 2% days when you do need windows? Every time you boot to it, you’ll have gigabytes of updates waiting for you, which is seriously annoying. In order to do “just one thing real quick”, you’ll end up wasting an hour each time. I propose you make those days less infuriating, by booting up windows a bit more frequently.

Ideally, you would just uninstall it entirely, and use the disk space for Linux. Unfortunately, many people still have some ties that are difficult to break, so I totally get it why dual booting exists. If that one thing you do in windows doesn’t require much performance, you could also dedicate some old heap of junk laptop for it.

It was a risky comment, and people didn’t like that. Fair enough. Occasionally, taking these kinds of risks produces interesting results though.

Exactly. There were only moments of relief between being chased by a t.rex or a bunch of velociraptors. Even when the protagonists ride into the sunset, the seeds of the next disaster are already sprouting.

Thanks for taking the time to analyze my wrecklesly risky comment.

I’m kinda curious, which part you found so offensive?

It’s like that t.rex scene in Jurassic Park. It got really scary, there was plenty of damage, but it all worked out in the end. Peak entertainment. 🍿

Well, except if you’re that one guy who got eaten alive. I guess Americans might feel like that.

My guess is, he looked on his desk, saw 3 coke cans, 5 burger wraps, 2 sharpies and 1 diaper. A new trade policy was born that day from such an inspiring sight.

Maybe President Musk can just tell secretary Trump to pull some strings and make sure his best buddies at the courts turn a blind eye to all of these shenanigans.

TL;DR they’re using solar power to run a CCU plant.

Cognitive dissonance, sunk cost fallacy, modern tribalism, etc. bunch of psychological stuff going on with this mess.
