Best I can do you is decades of hell in a virtual prison only you remember.

Some one should sue them for the maximum highest costs calculable for the travel time of having to return their products buying a new substitute brand, and going back home + legal fees.

Then that person should buy the product again to see if there's still an agreement in place, and sue them again.

Almost like there's some sort of "The Great Game" being played.

Colbert was never the right guy for the job. He plays a snooty conservative, from a bygone era (that role stuck to him).

It's supposed to be an everyman show. You need a comedian whose an everyman comedian. Bill Burr, but I doubt he would have gone for it. Charlie Day. Even H. Jon Benjamin if they had a good enough writers room.

You need someone who can pretend to be clumsy, and a bit discombobulated - but hold the train on the tracks still (like David Latterman could). That's not one of Colbert's skill sets. He's too well put together to be an everyman.

The media will once again over play the hand of leftwing politics.

Just like how they recently helped Trump woth his health problems by pointing out his swollen ankles.

They just never know when to just let a win ride.

I really don't think you can convert this Simpsons meme to being about the history of the US throughout all time (seems to be about the modern digital global, post 24 hour news cycle period of humanity we're currently in, I mean, it's an internet meme, so globalization and the Internet are the bounds of it)...

I think people like you, who get into this large political arguments with a totalistic "this debate in the comments will sort out the truth for all time" over a modern day meme are lame and stupid. It's just such a stupid game to be playing.

"This Simpsons meme is a commentary on the rest of the world's view of America during the civil war" is just - a stupid take in my opinion.

I don't think so, they've had fairly high transparency on most pf their elections, have a gopd numeracy and literacy rate, much of the protection of right has been pretty good outside of the enforcement side and some of the Children's rights issues (eg. Marriage laws and the private Child punishment industries).

I think most of the time they've been much better than most theocracies and authoritarian states. The US has had some prison labour but no where near as bad as say the Saudi system of slavery.

The US has bad patches, but they're far from the worst. Political freedoms there have mostly veen good up until recently.

I just meant that America feeling like the center of the world's criticisms isn't the same as them being the center of the world's criticisms.

Really the rest of the world has said they're the worst during the Iraq invasion and subsequent tortures, and then there was a big gap, and now that same sentiment of "America is doing the worst thing right now" has only just been coming back recently (with the rise of Trumpian Fascism).

...so it's mostly when America shows its fascism that the world makes this complaint. Bush and Trump were both unprecedentedly bad times, and both on the right Republican side. The world had a point both times.

....but generally the rest of the world is off doing its own bad things, with huge gaps between saying America is doing "the worst thing right now".

Not really.

Unless you have had three independent data recovery companies confirm the data can't be recovered - I'm not buying it.

For the software erase it says:

Even if power is interrupted during the data wiping process, the drive will automatically resume clearing data the next time it gets power, says Team Group.

We aren’t sure of the wiping algorithm or tech, so we would assume there remains a chance of data recovery after this software-powered wipe, or partial wipe.

For the hardware erase, it says recovery might be more effort than it's worth. So sounds like neither mode gets proven results.

It's essentially a dangerous scam.
