I already barely watch the TV I have, and it never goes online.

The Internet sucks now, and I've got shit to do. Gimme a reason to stop looking at screens. I fucking dare you.

Oh yeah, our ideas are super persuasive these days.

As an American, No.

Well there's always dual booting. I'll consider VR again one of these days, maybe. I early adopted the Oculus Rift way back, but I've never had the space for full motion and stuff. Did a fair amount of space travel with it though. That was nice.

This right here. Got a Steam Deck. My Surface Pro 4 finally died. So after years of hassling from my best friend, who runs Arch btw, I got a Framework 13 and put PopOS on it. Zero issues, to the point, sadly, where I haven't really learned to troubleshoot it much yet. We're gonna install Bazzite on my home theatre PC this weekend when he comes down.

The only Windows I'm gonna run from here out is on my work PC, and the AI shilling, spyware, and cloud requirements sure ain't changing my mind.

Why won't the cattle enter the chute?!

Millionaire CEO? Who is this broke bitch?

Oh absolutely. Regulating emissions and mass carbon capture by replanting forests, then burying them is the only way. Ain't like it would be even so easy as launching millions of shade satellites. An entire automated zero g manufacturing industry would have to be launched. And while that tickles my scifi nerd fancy, again, we can never allow a scant few humans to gatekeep space resources for themselves. That's too much wealth and power.

He probably means it'll feed the poor into a wood chipper.

This exact same technology naturally allows capitalists to force everyone to pay not to have their sunlight blocked during the day.

I mean, the technology certainly has benefits, not in reflecting sunlight onto the dark side of the Earth. Nobody fucking needs that. Instead it should be used to shade a few percent of sunlight in order to control Earth's warming climate.

But rich people gotta fuck things up. No single entity must ever be allowed to control orbital megastructures.

I say let him fly a jet.
