I like destroying accounts from time to time. Prevents becoming attached, identifying you with your comments, flushes your permanent record, etc.

Besides, it’s a pain in the ass and you might get banned so you end up working fewer hours for the website.

People with careers are getting cancelled because of their opinions published online. Nudging people to identify themselves online is inviting them to dig a grave

Can’t you sideload applications like a hacker?

Our computing landscape has deteriorated if installing an application/extension outside of a walled garden makes you a "hacker."

I believe the comment was facetious.

depends how high the walls are I guess. One other way to look at it is, if 99% of users cannot do it, then it's a hack =) aka users have becomed dumbed down by walled garden...

Servants or assistants might not provide you with the kind of connection that you long.

Or they could, if they care about you, respectfully attend to your needs and listen to you.

>Loneliness is the state of distress or discomfort that results when one perceives a gap between one’s desires for social connection and actual experiences of it. Even some people who are surrounded by others throughout the day—or are in a long-lasting marriage—still experience a deep and pervasive loneliness. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/loneliness

“for a better home” that’s a bold assumption, though

Parallels is an overpriced rubbish with stupid limitations. I’m switching to WMWare or VMWare as of right now

Parallels used to be front-runner with better support for new macOS features. vmWare used to lag behind with weird issues. This is why I switched from vmWare Fusion to Parallels Desktop a few years back. What are these limitations you speak of? And what makes it rubbish?

8 GB max of RAM is a software limitation not present in the more expensive tier. I suspect it is not a technical limitation, just greed.

Probably the biggest complaint is fusion is now free (for personal use) and Parallels is a subscription.

Also you can get other free vm managers on Macs now since it ships with a hypervisor and vm framework.

It’s pre-recorded so they don’t have to censor the audience’s boo

I don’t get why software needs a blank check to report and constantly send surveillance about you

It is information about how the software is operating.

The military budget both in absolute and relative terms is ludicrous.

The nations with a more irresponsible budget than the US are mostly state-terror organisations. Which doesn’t mean that the US isn’t one

So you think countries like South Korea, Greece, Kuwait, Columbia, and Singapore are "state-terror organizations"?
