So I looked around and almost all Lenovo, HP and Asus computers are sold with Windows 11 or no operating system. There are a few Chromebooks with ChromeOS. Lenovo have a few workstations with Linux, they are targeting small businesses with

Not surprising, in this environment you either have much more money or much less depending on which side of the wage gap you are on as inequality keeps growing, and yet nobody would buy a new computer that doesn't function better than

Supporting people staying healthy, preventing diseases is a whole lot cheaper eventually. The idea behind universal health care is that you don't want to be overly stringent because it comes back to you down the line with vengeance. In

That's a funny take, conservatives stubling with digital technology in 2022, though it looks like the lack of company management did them in. They had big dreams and a drunk CEO spiking his Red Bull with alcohol, screaming at investors

I mean the distribution of that money was upward. It's not like the wages were fixed or anything, or housing or any of that. The United States shouldn't even start with an approach like UBI. Universal health coverage should be the
