I was in a computer store a few years ago watching a young guy trying to sell a tablet to an older woman. He said “the good news about this is that it can’t get viruses because it runs apps”.

News@lemmy.world•EPA administrator announces huge rollback of environmental regulations
20·2 years agoHe says that instead of regulating the environment with bureaucrats he is going to have partnerships with polluting industry business owners who will do what is in the public’s best interest at lower cost. Instead of using science, they are going to rely on talk show hosts, social media, religious leaders and other more reliable pundits. Scientists are geeks and can’t be trusted.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do Americans not understand what has happened?
6·2 years agoI would add that most of us aren’t allowed to talk about politics at work, and outside of work it is usually so explosive we avoid it there too so we can still have freinds and family. That leaves some social media as the only place these conversations take place.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do Americans not understand what has happened?
7·2 years agoThere is nothing we can do. We haven’t actually been represented by our government in many many years. That doesn’t appear to have changed. For all the talk about owning guns to stop fascism, it is the vehement gun owners who won. A few of my friends and family are trying to leave the country. A few are too old, and a few still think their cult leader will actually make things better.
