Let's not forget Liz Truss. She may not have been as good as a lettuce but she was nonetheless.

I just prefer cable for those two. For the keyboard cable makes no difference to me. Mice cables have come a long way and a good one is barely noticeable.

Headphones though, I'm never going back to the cord. Both Sony XM and Bose QC work great for me.

This isn't the zombie apocalypse we wished for!

Brain dead people who don't eat each other? I want a refund.

Despite making records profits, supermarkets want to apply fascist-level tech to profit even more.

It's all connected. Countries want to donate less. Supply is smaller, not in small part thanks to Russia's slaughter of Ukraine. The energy crisis that prompted costs rising, again, Russia. Greedy corporations increasing their slices of the pie at record rates at our time of need. Crops increasingly being lost due to the effects of the climate crisis.

Not an exhaustive list, just what comes to mind at this moment.

These problems are still workable but not with the current greed and zero-sum mindsets we get from our own population (e.g. the right in many countries letting out their fascism).

While we argue and fight, millions starve. It's not just a possible outcome, it's already happening. People who refuse to acknowledge the climate crisis, people who support Russia, greedy corporations, etc. Their hands probably haven't been as bloody since the colonial times.

If only stupidity generated power then perhaps we'd have endless energy.

How can you fix anything when you're too busy attacking the LGBT+ community, breaking international immigrant / refugee laws, stealing privacy and civil liberty from your citizens?

They haven't been doing nothing. They have been degrading democracy.

Invented in the 50s, Fortran = FORmula Translating language. It was basically created to solve this sort of problem.

That's exactly what I had in mind but I'd rather not give it any sort of mention. I hope it dies in obscurity.

Reddit has been going downhill for a long time now. People are looking at this and expecting it to be the nail in the coffin. When really, it's one of many nails and probably not the final one. Many powerful people still got a lot of money riding on it.

Yeah. They value their stuff so much. Particularly their own soldiers.

Cringy isn't a word I like very much but it's the most suitable word for Elon Musk.
