They make the money flow, they earn a living, and they have job security pretty much ensured. That sounds like legitimate employment as far as Capitalism is concerned:-?

I hate Safe Mode.

#capitalism

I honestly don't think I am. They are both affected by the same elements, although degrees may vary.

Let's not forget the at times almost resentful detachment from all things American which has been sweeping Europe (and I'm not criticising it, don't get me wrong), and an increase in the prevalence of opinions which are in opposition to America is to be expected as well, both in the people and the politics (one feeds the other, always).

Well, for one, now that the economic pressure to stay on America's good side in terms of Liberal (i.e. what passes for Liberal nowadays) minutiae has been mostly eliminated, public support of things which would oppose America's interests has become less taboo.

Also, yes, the joke was that America left Europe's sphere of influence, and now Europe can speak its mind.

Funny, kinda' like how everyone unwinds after that person (America) leaves the room:)))

(not all Americans, hope the joke factor is clear)

No, but seriously. I see this said everywhere and I think most people take it as a sort of superstition, but, like... your entire thought patterns change once you give it up, it's like an engine being allowed to slow down after over-revving it incessantly. All these things do is waste our cognitive bandwidth. And, yes, I'm including any social network where "me" is the main focus.

Fair point, fuck the lot! Having to use a Macbook for work has been the uncontestable low point of my career, awful UX.

Apple... just... just shut the fuck up. Really. Keep your overpriced shit away, better yet. We'll build our own smartphones, and it's hard to make'em worse than yours. Just shut up.

Sorry, I am so sick of that company...

Lol? Lmao, even?
