"...it feels so fake and so capitalist." Is there some genuine, socialist Internet somewhere?

I said "F-this" 20 years ago, moved to the middle of nowhere, paid cash for my property and live on next to nothing. Best decision ever.

Once I moved to the middle of nowhere and limited my contact with people---besides my wife and children---I became very happy.

Draw salary as long as you can, save as much as possible and buy land outright somewhere cheap. No mortgage. I saw where it was all headed back in the early 2000s. I was in my mid 30s and feeling the grind back then. Rent? Fuck that. Your l

I raise my own cows on grass, slaughter them and fill my freezer with the beef. My wife and children help with the process and love the results. (I can't wait to see how many downvotes this gets.)

It's not going to work. I happen to be friends with a top AI researcher and he laughs it off completely. "No way." He referred me to this: https://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-biz-tesla-self-dr...

I was given an Onkyo TX-108 as a gift in the 1980s. I used and loved it up until I left the U.S. for good in 2006. I gave that receiver to my sister and she's still using it. Fantastic sound.

I nearly stopped using it with the terrible color changes to the tabs (no contrast) in v92. I mean, I thought, this is finally the last straw. But I found that I could customize some colors, especially the active tab, with an add on called

It's a great life! I just wish I'd been in a position to do it earlier. (I'm in my late 40s now.) I do a bit of IT, but nothing like before. Very basic. It amounts to desktop support and basic networking. I do other stuff too

I left corporate IT for good back in 2005. Then left the U.S. Moved to a small farm in the middle of nowhere. Never went back. Regrets = 0. Well, there are no Mexican food restaurants here.

As someone who gave up on Apple in the late 1990s, I experience schadenfreude when they are having these totally unnecessary issues... Year after year after year after year.

I've just had my "last straw" moment with Firefox after over a decade of using it. Several addons broke with their developers saying, in effect, F-it, and then it lost all of my saved logins. So, yep, F-it. Firefox has been m
