I'm not a political party, or in charge of anything.

Maybe you should direct your anger somewhere useful, like at those who were in power, or those who are seeking it.

Or not, you do you buddy.

For people who can spare $100-$200, I recommend buying an old ThinkPad or Dell business class laptop off eBay. Install Windows, update it, and stick it in your closet.

Because yes, sometimes you just need a Windows machine. VMs will cover most one off Windows requirements, but nothing beats a bare metal install.

Obviously this is not a solution for gaming, just the odd piece of Windows only software you need to run, or hardware you need to interface with that doesn't have Linux drivers.

They are modeling this after Apple's technical response to being forced to allow other app stores.

Would it shock you to learn that Apple revoked the certificates of developers who published apps they didn't like on other app stores e.g. torrent client?

Google will do the same exact thing with apps that impact the profitability of their native services e.g. Newpipe.

Stationed, or based, is not deployed.

You deploy to missions e.g. combat.

You labeled these them as being rich assholes who deserve whatever bad things that happened to them.

My electrician and construction worker friends will be so elated to hear that they've joined the ranks of Elon Musk, and every asshole hedge fund manager.

Would you mind creating a list of class-appropriate hobbies that they can partake in?

I want to make sure that if they get injured or killed doing one of their hobbies, that they won't posthumously smeared as class traitors who deserved it.

Union construction workers and skilled laborers/tradesmen e.g. electricians, plumbers, etc., in America regularly make six figures, I imagine it's not too different in Western Europe.

And how many blue collar workers like that do you know? Because the ones that I know all have what you apparently consider exclusively wealthy hobbies, such as boating.

You just looked at the picture, didn't read the article, much less follow up on details in the article, and now you're spinning your wheels trying to paint middle class workers in sailing cooperative as ultra wealthy.

There's a big difference between rich and being middle class, and if you have to pay into a cooperative to afford the experience of sailing, you're not rich.

Do you think anyone earning above poverty wages deserves bad things to happen?

I take it, you have no empathy then for construction workers or unionized skilled laborers.

It looks like the boat belonged to some sort of sailing cooperative meant for people who can't afford their own boat.

At least that's what comes up when you search for the owners of the boat that are referenced in the article.

To all Google and Microsoft employees, don't worry about the ethics or morality of your collaboration - you're just following orders. Right?

Another win for New Labour.

Lack of education and an abundance of farmland.
