You put it in a much better way than I ever could. But there is something fundamentally wrong with how the leaders of America thinks of themselves in relation to the public. They act like Kings, not servants.

I don't think that's true anymore. Google employees value their careers higher than anything else, otherwise they wouldn't put up with all the bullshit. Just working for Google itself is a huge red flag in their personalities

I heard that Google has decided to force everyone to get vaccinated before the end of August if they want to remain employed. I don't know if people leaving has something to do with that, but personally, I would leave immediately.

Both Microsoft and Apple are treating users like they don't care now. And probably 99.99999% of the users don't. Today you have to run Linux to control your computer yourself.

The media freaking out is because they get payed to freak you out. Not only will you watch what they are saying - you will also be more open to getting the vaccine.

It makes no sense to take that vaccine to me. But I'm watching the absolute majority go and inject it into their bodies.

Zorin is based on KDE, a Linux desktop environment. Typically looks like Windows but here they have put effort into making it look nicer.

We are never going back to normal. I don't know how to make people understand that. It seems they keep believing that if they just go along and do what they are told, things will be normal again. You will see more variants of covid, mo

Getting payed less is an idiotic thing. You use LESS resources working remotely. I suggest you use that statement as a screener for finding companies worth your time.

That's a proper slave mentality right there. I suggest you instead think like this "what will I do to continue working remotely? Which company will I pick?".

Don't worry, they are working on population reduction... I think it's more likely most of us are not around in 20 years. So we don't have to worry about it. :)

I think for us computer guys, the noise in the office is not something we miss... People interrupting eachother with loud conversations and loud laughing is what I remember. I don't miss it.
