This is a time where it’s hard to be away from politics. I switched to all tech news after the U.S. election, and the tariffs are strongly influencing the supply and demand, and the convict is skewing crypto ponzi schemes in his personal favor which has a lot of influence on hardware. He has Musk that’s trying to influence hard on AI which also impacts a lot of our hardware.
Can’t fucking get away from it, really.
I also bought a lifetime VPN via StackSocial, and it ended up limiting the VPN to a browser extension. That VPN was IPinator, and it was a helluva time getting that refund because nowhere in the sale did it state the VPN service was only for web browsing. StackSocial and IPinator both pointed fingers at each other as responsible for the refund. Once I posted out to StackSocial that the “satisfaction guarantee” was also posted on their website, it was hard for them to back out and they eventually refunded me the money.
I deleted my bookmark to StackSocial and have never bought from them again.
