I see this being a common theme over the next year. Trump supporters shocked when policy changes impact them negatively.

All those groups really didn't expect the leopard to eat their face.

I agree that manned space programs are unnecessary and unmanned should be very limited. Starlink shouldn't have been allowed. Unfortunately the US government let telecoms off the hook when it came to serving rural areas.

I've met very few people in the US with more than a passing interest in AI and everyone in my friends and family circle has left X/Twitter. #ven the hardcore conservative folks.

That's because tech peaked a while back. Tech news is basically about the next hustle to keep the funding coming in while producing nothing truly useful.

I'm fully remote now but when I was in the office it was only 3 miles from my house. Many days lunch was a quick bite, 20 minute power nap, and head back to the office.

Not only does it cause compliance it creates a perfect setup for exploitation, extortion, and trafficking.

I'm guessing the reason they didn't want to say who they voted for is cognitive dissonance.

I use it for the same reasons as you and I also follow local news outlets and local government since Twitter went to crap. I follow a few special interest groups but political posts, probably by bots is making most of these groups unusable. I couldn't care less about the content. I go to other platforms for that

I can't decide if Gaetz or Mike Johnson has the more punchable face.

I'm sad because it's true.
