I didn’t care up until he tried pulling the billionaire card to jump the transplant line. If you want to throw your life away on some crystal bullshit be my guest, but when it fails as any rational person would expect, take your L and pay the consequences, don’t fuck over someone with less money who followed the system.

He didn’t have to die from cancer – he got a relatively early diagnosis and could have engaged in advanced medical procedures to fight it. But instead, he fell into a new-age hippie-dippie "treatment" plan, and when that inevitably failed, he tried to use his money to skip the line on a transplant ahead of people who had actually listened to their doctors and believed in medical science over quackery. For such a business and tech genius, he was incredibly foolish in his final years.

It’s almost as if regulations are in fact good for the consumer and crazy libertarians are fans of shooting themselves in the foot – or in favor of swindling less savvy libertarians and keeping it all for themselves.

I wonder how certain… outside the box elements of the endgame will work in other OSes.

Windows Defender has grown into a pretty impressive AV solution for most users, especially as AVG and Avast have descended into freemium hell for users who don’t pay for them. My buddy had issues with AVG basically rendering his system unusable, I told him to uninstall it and just use Defender, and things are running so much better for him now.
If you are at least halfway intelligent with how you use your computer and think before you click, Windows Defender + uBlock Origin is the best security suite around.

This person lives in an apartment and probably has no contact with their courier – the door person or mailroom likely accepts the package, and good luck getting them to get into an argument with a courier.

This person was totally inconvenienced and may have permanently damaged their relationship with their landlord because of the incompetence and stupidity of Sonos. If all Sonos is offering is a straight refund with no other compensation, the right thing to do is to extract value from the major corporation that feels fine fucking over a person. Companies are not in fact people despite what our idiotic courts think. I feel no remorse taking from them, especially in this case where they have actively taken from the person.
