Theft, as usual

Okay I’ll take your word for it, I should read it though I suppose

I didn’t either but I don’t need to; it’ll be shit when it comes and my decision is made going forward.

It’s too late, it’s pretty much done.

The system I have is running Win10 Education, which is still updating, has no bloat ware and I’m having no issues with.

Others in the house have PCs with Win11 and they hate it. This and the outside world has shown me where it’s going and I’ve had a gutful of Americans and their shit so whatever I can break from of theirs I’m doing.

So next system of mine, which will probs be an old Thinkpad, will be a Linux machine and every one after going forward will be.

Yeah I’d have been involving the ACCC from a very early stage.

Another lesson here is to pull out the camera and get some evidence before you give the part back too.

This shits me because I’ve always viewed Umart as a good place to get stuff from. I’m really annoyed with them over this.

Welded to the motherboard

Which ends any further dealings I have with Umart. I’ve bought a couple of boxes and sone parts through them, no longer. Thank you for this.

Their chooks turn into emus and kick their shithouse down.

This kind of lawsuit only makes things worse for musicians who are already struggling with making money performing and recording. This will be challenged, beaten and leave a bad image for artists as not everyone is going to draw logical conclusions from it.

It’s not about artists anyway despite their claim, it’s about labels. The artists doing well are doing their own thing recording, touring, selling merchandise and making sure their followers are getting value for money. The traditional labels are losing control the same way the magazines did.

This is me. I’m casually looking at a used Think Pad for Linux purposes and like you say, I know a well looked after second hand business class T model is better than a brand new shittop

Still doesn’t mean I should be okay with some meta glass hole filming me.

These glasses and the people who wear them are disturbing.

Sounds like Americans

Yep, spoken like a true American.

corporations

I suppose you mean tech? Many parts of the world offer value for money products. Had it not been the US in anything any corporation needs, someone else will step up.

Besides which most corporations rely on China more than the US now.

governments

Another thing shared and cooperation offered.

Fix your problems instead of expecting others to step in.

‘Someone, do something about our problem so we can take advantage of it’

Fuck this is exhausting

Fits the country like a glove he does.

Truly he is their president and they love taking his shit.

If they come, someone will build it

still throws money

I did, you can tell it’s frightened

We hear you

Yeah I bet you do.
