Modern bots are bad, but the old school IRC (maybe early Battle.net?) bots... I'm cool making an exception for them if you are.

Stupid adults being stupid and paying for their stupidity is one thing. But 1) this affects their kids, and 2) this can affect my kid (<1yo) and anyone who can't get vaccinated because they're immunocompromised/etc.

"middle class" usually means household income of 300k or so.
CC "debt" that's paid off in full every month is debt in the same sense that eating at a typical restaurant puts you in debt.
Don't get me wrong, unmanageable CC debt is a real thing, but that's not what we're talking about.
A six/seven figure donation for these companies is...nothing. While I'm all for grabbing my face eating leopard popcorn, I'm not sure I'd say this falls under that category. This amount of money doesn't feel like trying to buy favors
more like "please don't specifically target us with your wrath of incompetence."
This title makes it sound like he wouldn't be a good Klingon, either. Which...is definitely true.

Here's January of this year. San Francisco, so pretty moderate weather
typically don't run heat during the day, and low 60s at night (if at all) during the winter. Large temperature gradient throughout house, typically.

it is "incrementally free," although I guess if you count tire wear and tear that's not even true.
You're just gatekeeping.
ThinkPad with a generator? Nothing wrong with that
maybe add LoRa, get a ham license and add some packet radio or digital modes and you have a neat disaster setup.
MacBook that you don't want to scuff? Well, I'm not that precious with my gear, but you do you. Many Mac laptops last a very long time, and the performance of modern Apple silicon is really, really impressive
and you have UNIX out of the box. Plenty for a tech enthusiast to like.
