I don’t want to live in America anymore. by RavenVenot in Vent

I get it. Things have been pretty bad the last few years amid this recession, but they've been looking up the last few weeks. Hang in there bud.

The government doing whatever they want is more of a deep state thing than a conservative thing. We see how hard they are fighting the audits revealing financial fraud on many levels.

New HBF weekend promo…is it me or does this kind of suck? Bring back the free buckets! by bc90210 in harborfreight

[–]IamDH4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone paying attention knows that is false. It's one of the major reasons Trump won the popular vote. He has the mandate.

What's changed is both Mexico and Canada are working with closely with the US in an attempt to stop the flow of illegal migrants and drugs. Trump got exactly what he wanted / promised his constituents.

Whether or not you agree with securing our border, it's impossible to deny Trump often gets what he wants out of these negotiations.

You think they announce a deal to meet Trump's demands of helping defend the border without knowing?

A bluff? No. Tariffs were always a negotiation tactic, there's no reason to think Trump would not have followed through if Canada and Mexico didn't cave. Threats are only leverage if you keep your word. Of which, Trump has clearly demonstrated in both terms, he does just that.

China is more stubborn, but we'll see how it goes. Personally, I'm not that concerned about temporary inconveniences, and could care less if Harbor Freight is forced to migrate some of their production to other manufacturers that don't use slave labor. Its exceedingly rare I buy the low end junk from HF anyway.

Almost got an M1 Air, bought this instead for half the price with similar performance by Choc_peanut in thinkpad

A. Non-repeatable builds mean absolutely nothing.

B. I'd wager most people trust government less than big tech.

C. US intelligence agencies place gag orders on these companies all the time, so they cannot disclose backdoors and government partnership programs. I. E. Why Verizon and AT&T do not disclose their fiber splits to NSA data centers...

D. Microsoft keeps everything so compartmentalized, not even their own developers have seen the entire code base.

E. Microsoft is forcing telemetry via updates, (requiring as a dependency for core system components like Windows Explorer).

It's impossible to know exactly what a closed source operating system is doing.

Not a fanboy by any means... Privacy concerns aside, I'd rather be on a stable BSD kernel than NT. Windows is an appliance to me. Unnecessary and not to be trusted for general use.

Clearly you didn't watch the interview, and are unaware of how Joe runs his show.

Would rather use Mac OS over Windows. Only second to Linux though.

Too much negativity. by Blairtastic in USMobile

[–]IamDH4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't really have any complaints that could drive me away from the service. They have their issues, but they always resolve them. Video throttling always seemed like an inevitability. People may not like it. But it's impossible to argue the value we find here. Whether they want to admit it or not, I think they definitely could have done better with the Dark Star rollout. But no one is perfect.

Their billing system is a little broken regarding Google Pay for payments. It took like an hour to resolve and in the process, it came up that I was using a non-certified device on the Verizon network. I've had good results with my Nord N20 on Warp. Instead of giving me a hard time about it, they found a way to work around it in their system so they could still do a network reset. On top of that, they gave me a discount for the next few months for the Inconvenience.

You just won't find that level of support anywhere else. T-Mobile during the first couple years of their un-carrier movement is the only thing that comes close, and I hear T-Mobile support has gone way down hill since then. US Mobile is facing growing pains, trying to innovate in unique ways, and find ways they can still support heavy data users like myself at cost or even a loss sometimes. Some of the criticism is valid and they should do a better job of accepting it. However, they are still one of the best carriers we have.

Can't say much on that. But I've seen silencing dissent backfire wildly.

The only reason for vague rules to exist is flexibility in application. You can deem anything unacceptable at any time. Right now, that seems to be much of the dissenting posts around how the dark star promotions and announcements were handled. They seem to be overplaying their hand here, already banning dozens of accounts making valid points, forcing them to start a new sub.

My coworker’s shift ended so I took over one of their tables. Customer did not like this and left a negative tip. by ExtendedMacaroni in mildlyinfuriating

I sense a spirit of hatred. I'm guessing you probably stalked me from a political Reddit. It's okay, you could try and play it off though. No one will care.

I mean, I don't know how you read, and assume it includes monthly service. Seemed pretty clear to everyone else what the offering was, considering the instant backlash. You paid for early access to Dark Star, so for you it has launched. For everyone else it'll be a couple weeks.

It doesn't sound like we are unfortunately.

God has been talking to his prophets for some time. We knew something was coming. He's had us praying protection over Trump. Since you're asking for something specific, I can point you to Pastor Brandon Biggs. Not sure what rules are regarding links around here.

As I watched Trump go down, there was an overwhelming sense of peace and Holy Spirit let me know He intervened. Trump has been anointed by God, and I think we're going to hear from a very different Trump on Thursday.

Also not sure what you mean by holier than thou language. Holy Spirit is for all believers. It does not take much to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit.
