Only 2 years, since the revolutionary war didn't end until 1783.

The board of peace is basically Spectre brought out of the James Bond films into this fucked up reality where a bunch of morons elected Biff Tannen... twice.

Not being able to run ai spyware 11 sounds like a big entry in the plus column to me 😅

Well that sucks. I assumed the ram, ssds, hdds could be recycled into useful forms.

Can we all buy cheap hardware when the bubble bursts and the billionaires decide not to pay the electricity bills for these ridiculous datacentres?

Completely agree and I'm on the same train. I boycott as much as I can from the USA.

When the rest of the world catches up, dumps us bonds, treasuries, stocks, and revokes ridiculous copyright protections that prevent repair or circumvention to disenshittify, then I'll be satisfied.

I think Americans need to be more concerned than I do about that. Sorry state of affairs when education is a criticism

Brave New World has to be on the list. In many ways we already walked into the brave new world while worrying about 1984

Sweden have been leading the way in extracting screens and digital services from schools. Worth reading this: https://www.afterbabel.com/p/sweden-went-all-in-on-screens-in?publication_id=1221094 Plenty of data referenced for the reasons why...

A fair response. Just couldn't see anything except US references when I looked at the site.

Love the princess bride reference. Thank you for acting on behalf of those of us with less technical skills.
