And it is indeed a good shape for things like cookies.

Oh, King Crimson is the finest wild ride ever. They did things that couldn’t be done anywhere else. However, I don’t know anything about Jojo. I just started listening to KC in the 90s, when they were producing their last memorable original works. They are truly amazing. My favorite albums are the one you mentioned, Discipline, Lark’s tongues in aspic and Thrak, though, Red is highly praised by most people. Also, if you can watch them live, even these days with the band getting old, they are an absolute delight.

No, I get it. My phones should last at least five years and some of them even have longer uses after being my primary phones. For example, I still plan to use my Redmi Note 4 Pro (mido) as a Kodi entertainment center with postmarketOS, even after six years of heavy daily usage. Every time I buy a phone I try to make sure it’s officially supported by Lineage OS, but people in general just want the new thing. Honestly, the mobile phone industry doesn’t even change that fast anymore. A 3-yo phone is basically as good as the new shiny thing.

Every three years? Lol.

King Crimson’s Epitaph lyrics, from 1969, sing:

Well, knowledge is a deadly friend, when no one sets the rules. The fate of all mankind, I fear, is in the hands of fools.

Wow, you got booze!?

Mexican here. I don’t agree with you at all. To me, Mexico is finally turning into a democracy and, while things can always be better handled, things are turning for good after the horrible 2006-2018 period. About 2000-2006, yeah, it was an okay period. The president was a clown, though, but at least he was not an assassin en masse like Calderon.

Don’t bother replying to me. This is a message for the other people who reads your comment, so they know not everyone thinks like you do.

Don’t forget to stop buying those fancy Starbucks coffees.

Yes, it is a free and open source app for Lemmy.

Ahhh, finally! Peace!

It’s like the wall, really. But so much bigger, as big as it is reshaping global trade. Like the wall, it will never become a reality, except in some specific parts of the border. Well, some specific parts of the USA economy will still work, the American consumer market is irreplaceable in some extent, for now.

I would think regular Americans are already being affected by this?

Was it ever?

It’s like the USA won the Cold War and found themselves with nowhere left to go, exhausted. The state became less relevant by the year as it was intended by their neoliberalism, and greed is always everywhere taking over as many spaces as possible, it’s just its nature. But an ever disappearing government is just a milking cow, why it even exist if it’s been taken by the greedy? In this scenario, instead of being hopeful about its mere existence, because it should be one way for the people to regain power, it is just another way to take more wealth from the people, and an instrument to control them.

My point was that Trump, Trump-Putin, are just a consequence. The USA government showed critical weaknesses and they are being exploited. At the same time, you point it out well, the government found weaknesses of society to exploit. Americans should exploit them too, usually it’s done politically, but both of the American parties are basically the same (I know politically involved individuals do hate this statement, but from outside of the USA it’s very clear); it’s time for the people to regain power, and they will, this tariffs craze is gonna make them have to fight back.

Own your president Trump. Even if your theory was true, and I won’t qualify it, nothing of this could have been possible without a ruined education system and mindless propaganda. All of this starts way before 2013.

It’s like electrons.

A deal with the USA means nothing, but that is as true today as it was in 2014 and 2022.

Time for TheLuigiAI.

It also reads fine in Thunder. Maybe it’s something in the app, the post seems quite heavy on the markdown side.

I wish I could take credit, but tbh, it wasn’t intended. It’s still staying.

You must have been av very popular kid in your neighborhood.
