  • Windows XP was the last good Windows.

    I think you’re really only remembering XP after SP3. XP in its original form was clunky, buggy and unreliable.

    It had zero bloat

    Wait are you trying to be funny?

    it encouraged you to use an admin account as your daily account.

    This is bad. You should not do this, especially not on anything connected to the internet. You should definitely not do this on an XP system connected to the internet.

    There was no built in firewall until a later service pack, but you could just opt out of that update.

    I’ve eaten the onion, haven’t I?


  • If there is a valid point being made here, it’s that long-term outcome-dependent strategy is more effective than short-term protestation or performative moralizing. And make no mistake, the right wing has plenty of people with long-term visions who know how to manipulate their voter base.

    The left needs to start planning beyond the next election, or reacting to the latest atrocity, and develop a vision for what the country could be, what it should be.







  • Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
    Everybody knows the war is over
    And everybody knows the good guys lost
    Everybody knows the fight was fixed
    The poor stay poor and the rich get rich
    That’s how it goes
    And everybody knows

    Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
    Everybody knows the captain lied
    Everybody got this broken feeling
    Like their father or their dog just died
