@Daojoan Once Upon a Time, the History Channel used to be just that. History.

I remember the good old days.

@Em0nM4stodon They're still planning to rolll this out so I would push for alternatives in the meantime.

@AAKL @mike805 With already rising electric and heating bills, it will get worse over time. Expect dark times ahead I feel.

@bh @zackwhittaker With Apple squarely on the US government's side, those days are clearly over.

The Apple you see today is not the Apple you saw years ago.

They're all in to authoritarism and even fascism.

@AAKL Yep, I posted that yesterday. This will affect every form on electronics over the next ten plus years guaranteed.

@AAKL The Sony and Valve news over the past 48 hours proves that it's only going to get worse.

And now Valve is feeling the pinch much like every other consumer-focused company.

Once again, AI needs to die and burst already.

Case in point: Western Digital has maxed out their 2026 HDD capacity.
