I have a pretty new Bosch that runs on the grid, love it. It’s extremely silent unless I turn it up to the max, in which case it’s crazy powerful.

I’m always happy with my Devold socks, but it’s probably hard to go wrong with anything on the list. :)

The handful of people boycotting will change the handful of people boycotting. And each one of y’all being here makes it easier for the rest of us to do the same. Well, except the teolks and leninists, but you get my point.

Independent thought is an act of resistance at this point.

Think tanks are the worst. They are pretending to do research and are sometimes taken seriously by the media and those who don’t know better, but their research and findings are ordered by their funding bodies. None of that shit is worth the paper it’s written on. If research is not independent it’s not research at all.

You shouldn’t need a long analysis that picks apart public statements and interprets them in a specific context to conclude that they probably didn’t mean it the way it is obviously interpreted by anyone reading it.

It’s not hard to be outspoken against fascism. Proton likes to forward themselves as visionaries, yet they completely fail to. Maybe they privately think Trump is an idiot, but I don’t care. Resistance needs to be public in order to exist at all, especially when coming from actors like Proton.

Praising tweets by Trump wis sucking up to fascists. Had this tweet been contextualized with a long history of effective public opposition to the Trump regime I would have been willing to accept contextualization. It is not.

TLDR: my conclusion is that it is far more likely that Proton and its CEO are actually liberals.

Ugh.

I really do not care which ideological basis they use to suck up to fascists.

The lead developer celebrated Charlie Kirk and whined about how white men are discriminated against in tech. Comes in addition to some earlier comments indicating he has fragile white man views on gender as well.
