Thank you for explaining it. I haven't been in the *nix world for years, keep thinking I'll get back into it.

That's honestly what it's going to take, is a collapse like the French experienced in 1789. It's not going to be pretty. We have tanks, machine guns, bombs, all kinds of chemical weapons (tear gas is a chemical weapon), etc.

They're systematically dismantling everything, including farming and social programs created to help feed poor people. What do they think is going to happen when people can't eat? There's a reason Rome did bread and circuses. Feed the masses, entertain them somewhat and they stay relatively complacent. They're not doing that here.

I mean just watch that video of Eric Schmidt of Google that came out last year. It's pretty shocking how bold they are in their willingness to break laws and social norms for money.

Right, but its specifically a slavic/russian derivation of the word ceasar.

It's one of those projecting things the conservatives like to do. It's stupid, and needs to stop imo.

His name sounds like he's a ferengi from star trek. "Listen here, female hoo-man". Kinda makes sense, they are like ferengi.

Yea, this kind of blows me away. Maybe I'm out of the loop, but 3-4 processes each eating away that much memory? Just to deal with the network stuff? Holy fuck.

They have similarly aligned goals, especially right now.

Nah, they're a megacorp, you gotta hurt them where it counts - in their bottom line. Make them use their super expensive lawyers to defend this shit. Honestly more people/entities should do this. Even pro se, these corporate lawyers cost these companies literally hundreds of thousands of dollars to go into court. Just imagine how much you could cost them if everyone started suing them for any little thing. Even a response to a lawsuit requires a lawyer, which requires time and effort.

Its literally the only thing they care about - money. Strongly worded letters and protests aren't enough. They can ignore those.

Nope. But in case you hadn't noticed, we don't really have much power to stop him.
