    I’ve read that one differently all this time. I thought It is what it is when it’s handed to me a mess. I can’t change what made it a mess. I can only clean it up. Coming to terms with the fact none of us can change the past and finding blame is pointless if i still have to clean it up.

    EG: when faced with cleaning up a hoarders house. We might not have caused it but it still needs to be cleaned up. That’s when it is what it is so we don’t keep blaming what is usually the dead person found in it who can’t do anything about it anyways.

    Yeah I’ll give you that for the life of me I don’t understand why exFAT drives seem to trip over permission issues and in such stupid ways. I don’t seem to have anywhere that same problem with ext4.

    Like what is a person supposed to do with that? More partitions? While linux does have permission issues of its own I haven’t really run into a problem I can’t fix easily with one command line.

    I don’t know if bush can be really defended in comparison here as after 911 terrorism rhetoric ended up withsevere racism against anyone not white with a beard getting on a plane. He’s the one who kicked that one off.

    Driver permissions ……in windows? What on are you talking about?

    I use both Linux and windows. I’m confused what it is you’re doing exactly to have so many issues.

    Because the moment they go public the stock market demands they constantly have an improvement basis to keep their stock holders in a state of security to keep invested. So like get this: there’s a company that makes medical machines to keep people alive. A founder retired and the stock market dipped to half the price. Which only lasts less than a month and it recovers. Of course anyone who’s leading teams would then panic and get flustered

    …like this is a company that should have its target about human life. And all the stock holders are worried about is the suit. Like it’s not even an improvement of a product. Improvements are all bullshit announcement for Wall Street.

    That is…until crypto collapses it all.

    Tax the rich and fix this shit.
