You had to pay for OS X updates before, but they changed that around 15 years ago. I remember paying I think $60 to upgrade from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
12·1 year agoDon’t feign ignorance, Pyotr. Your agitatsiya doesn’t work on me! Begone to your Russian Soviet KGB troll farm and tell Putler we’re not swayed by cheap provokatsiya.
The cost of rent/mortgages is going up, the cost of power is now higher than ever,
Wow, I never thought I’d be seeing Russian Soviet KGB dezinformatsiya and provokatsiya on Lemmy. While it is true that the costs of these things have increased it’s simply because we’re all in this together the together of punishing Russia and Putler with sanctions so that we can assure endless and resolute Slava Ukrainye!
The fact you’re complaining about all this leads me to believe you’re not at all a hecking good human being but instead a Nazi bigot chud Putler apologist. You probably don’t even think Sam Smith’s nonbinary identity is valid. SMH. Do better, sweaty.

No, it’s not parties that are entrenched, it’s laziness and complacency. America could have a viable third party, the status quo could be shaken. But it would require a bit more drastic measures than just canvassing and making YouTube videos. It would require an election boycott campaign to shake the legitimacy of your democracy (and with two parties that serve the same corporate master, just how legitimate is it in the first place?), it would entail a period of instability with perhaps something even worse than Trump emerging for a while…
But by and large, Americans are comfortable. Despite the economic downturns, despite the drug zombies in the streets, most Americans are not ready for the hardcore sacrifices that are necessary to drastically change a political system.
So you trudge along, always choosing between two piles of shit, carefully weighing which pile is a bit smaller and stinks just a bit less. And you say, this is democracy in action!
