Do RSS feeds count as a “service”? I fear one day they will go away and that will be the end of my efficient way of keeping up with things I am interested in.

Good question. Along the same lines, if your disk is encrypted and you make a simple backup (say using cp) is the backup encrypted and if so, how do you restore from that?

Join a bunch of communities that you may be interested in to fill up your feed with a bunch of stuff to read. That way, if you want to take a break and read stuff, you can look here rather than on Reddit. You can look for communities here that are a close match to what you had on Reddit. Over time, you can dial them in and hopefully not feel the need to go back to Reddit.

I never go back and just to read Reddit. I only go there if a web search looking for something in particular takes me there.

This is the start of normalizing a higher level of violence against people by the government.

So US tax payers are paying for the tariffs. Who would have every guessed?

I was thinking that these companies would be making a lot of money and people with money would love to invest in them. This would further split people as those invested would want the companies to thrive and those that couldn’t afford to invest …

I do see how being private corporations would work too.

Since not many people have answered, I’ll share mine even though it would happen outside the 3 year window.

All pollution standards will be dropped. The air will become so bad that homes will have to have active filtration and people will have to have active personal protection when they go outside. Both of these active devices will run on a subscription plan controlled by publicly owned companies. Can’t pay, can’t breath. The same will apply to water.

In some way, a similar thing needs to be done to any entity supporting or bowing to Trump. From countries to colleges to people in the government and so on. The big question is how to do that, how to get people to come together and do that.

Private equity suck the life (value) out of a company until there is nothing left. That is probably what will happen here.

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Both Republicans and Democrats want it that way.

Wait, religion is coming back? How will they ever pick the right one? 😆

People so often have thought the rapture was coming and … it doesn’t. How often can people be fooled? Why are they so gullible … oh yeah, religion.

How is this even legal? Who in government should be challenging this?

I believe some amount of people support the assholes because some how they think (or hope) they will benefit by giving that support (especially so many of the assholes have so much power and money.) The “trickle down” effect from the assholes. Oops, might not have been the best phrase … on second thought …

Fair to say an economy by the rich, for the rich?

So one outcome is that in the end, one person on the planet has all the money and in that instance, all money becomes useless.

By removing the vaccine for 65-74 year olds, no kids in that age range will die from the vaccine… I did the math :)

People are here to praise, worship and obey him. All others will be punished.

More ways to divide us into smaller and smaller groups. “United we stand, divided we fall”

It would be great if everyone realized how controlling religion is. Hopefully this one wakes up women to this … but I doubt it :(
