It's okay, Drag. Some people just need to learn to let go.

Sounds like you'd get more mileage by donating the money to a mental health related charity, or a lobby group that advocates for mental crisis coverage under universal insurance, than buying a bullet resistant car.

I like to make this equation with Hungarian "ingenuity" under communism: We were producing canned goods for the population, but the design of it was so bad, regular Russian can openers couldn't handle it. With lack of P-38/P-51 in the eastern block, we had to come up with our own specialized can openers specifically targeted at these poorly designed cans, and also distribute them to the population. But really, all that would have been necessary is to just simply redesign the can again so that it's compatible with standard can openers again.

Bullet resistant cars and gun violence are an effect of bad design. The bad design is lack of social services.

At that point why bother? Either accept it and move on, or axe the partition and start browsing forums full of furry pfp gentleanimals advising you on how to fix your latest issue with your new linux installation.

Sounds like regulations are in order, yes. EU (and ironically China) doing the good work. But it's hardly a monopoly. They just have a successful product, like it or not.

They've creeped back from another angle after IE was killed.

It's frightening how God it is.

Intentional?

Meh. Feelings are louder than facts apparently.

What exactly does Apple have a monopoly over? Or Amazon? Both have plenty of competition, while, let's be honest, Google cornered a segment the market really well with Search + Chrome. Google is basically dictating direction of Web based standards towards an ad-driven, zero-privacy, centralized internet.

If anything, after Google it should be Microsoft again.

I order to get something, you have to learn to let go first.
