What constant churn? Nothing changes on my system unless I desire it to.

You can't win the argument with facts, so you rely on downvotes and flags. When that doesn't work either, you turn to a shadowban--in the process fully demonstrating your psychopathic nature.
What a toxic, censored cesspool this place is, inhabited and controlled by demons. Your nature is very clear.
It's Sodom and Gomorrah 2.0. Can there be any doubt you're gonna burn?
Good luck with your coming war against Russia and China. I'll be sitting that one out, thanks. Hopefully your LGBT army will comport themselves well. lol
I realize this is a radical concept for your society, which at this moment is thoroughly unjust. Familiarize yourself with this concept now, as it will come up later on the test.
No wonder you keep getting robbed and fucked over all the time. You think it's somehow morally wrong to strike back! It's like you were born and bred to be a victim.
This also explains why so many others get victimized while you stand by and watch idly. Because you think there's nothing wrong with your fellow man getting fucked over!
I could explain more, but it would be useless, as your confusion is at this time far too thick and heavy to be dispelled by just one guy like me. What you're gonna need is somebody like me in your local area to help educate you.
My recommendation is to just double park your big ass honkin truck or Maserati somewhere, then just watch and see what happens. Eventually, you will reach enlightenment.
The first weapon to be employed is a Middle Finger. If that proves ineffective, it's followed by a lugnut taken from a coffee can that I keep handy. If and when things get to that level, the person usually wises up quick and finds a new hobby. There are other tools available if the nutcase decides to escalate further.
No, in this case it was just people speeding along at 95 (in a 70) who were terribly offended at my dangerously slow driving, who wished to register their indignation as they flew by, momentarily held back but undeterred as they sped off to their Bright New Tomorrow. Message received, loud and clear.
The solution is just to stay out of Atlanta, or drive faster. I'm OK with that.
Not really sure where you were going with all this. Sounds like pretty extreme, weird behavior that you are advocating.
Theft? HA! Nope, they attempted to rob me, on multiple levels. Categorically refused.
> Even worse is that you can't know what it may cost you in the future. My friend couldn't open a business account the other day. After many phone calls he was lucky enough to find someone that told him it was because he left a bank account $67 overdrawn when he was younger.
Oh no! How will I ever conduct business without the government or bank's permission? I guess the only alternative is slavery to some giant corporation, or death! What should I do?
As an American, I would probably like to consult with Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine, Smedley Butler, Lysander Spooner, Mark Twain, etc and get their thoughts on this matter.
While looking something up just now, this old saved quote from years back popped right into view. Couldn't have said it better myself:
"Why work at all? Just live off the system. The aristocrats do it lavishly. The welfare rats do it slovenly. Both know that working for an 'honest dollar' in this empire of lies is for suckers. This is why they set up artificial barriers of entry such as needing a 'college degree' for so many jobs so you have to wade through all that propaganda bullshit they spew these days. It's also why they have to make sure property prices stay high to keep the cheese dangling in front of the mouse. The system is designed to keep you churning the wheel while the others sit back, relax, and enjoy a life of leisure at your expense."
Ah! Found a serious problem. Not the problem, mind you, but a problem. There's a reason the self-described "elites" like to hole up in that place.
(It would be a shame if they never emerged from those holes. What would the world do without their 'leadership'?)
> I strongly suspect he never would have found out the reason in many countries.
Yes, I agree, there are many shithole countries in the world. I live in one, too. One learns to adapt.
> His only recourse was to use a more expensive provider (maybe $600 per year).
Yes, this corrupt country tried to screw me in a similar type of way, years back. I refused to play ball and just did what I wanted instead, very carefully and quietly. Now that problem is permanently resolved, for a fraction of what it would have otherwise cost.
> Please don't assume I am tolerant of abuse. I vindictively avoid some brands (and even all products from some countries).
One time, I went to the local Wal-Mart a couple days before Christmas. I parked at the back of the lot as the place was packed full. No problem, I don't mind walking. But then imagine my displeasure to observe that some complete asshole in a giant lifted pickup truck has double parked near the front of the lot.
That guy was way more important than anyone, in his own mind, clearly. Someone just had to educate him about how so very wrong he was. The job fell to me, as I was the closest warrior at hand.
So I sent a shopping cart sailing at warp 11 into his truck. ("Engage!") It just so happened to impact right on the corner of the cab, behind the door (the worst spot possible--thanks, God), and fucked it all up. Mission Accomplished. I returned home and celebrated.
I know of another funny incident where a similar type of person was similarly unimpressed by some douchebag in a Maserati (this is hillbilly country, home of Chevys and Fords) who likewise felt entitled to take up two parking spots on a busy main street where parking was limited. In this case the guy dumped a tractor bucket load of wet hay into his open convertible top.
The "victim" of that incident was raging on Facebook, offering a reward for whoever turned the guy in, etc, but everyone was just laughing at the SOB.
You'd be surprised what you can get away with, when everyone around you is quietly wishing somebody would do just that thing.

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.
One bank pissed me off due to an extremely dishonest thing they did. So I overdrafted the account to the max ($500) and left them the bill.
(Not the first time I've done something like that to someone who deserved it. I've done much, much more in some cases. Endless painful papercuts? Nope, I do not accept that.)
They weren't happy about this. I think they hit "my" "credit" with that for years. I never noticed, as I don't borrow money; the machinations of these "credit reporting" agencies are beneath my concern. They have no credit in my eyes. I don't consort with crooks, I just punish them.
> Second example: I use an iPhone because I judge it to be more secure yet I'm constantly fighting the same bugs and misfeatures that seem to never get fixed/improved.
I haven't had a phone in decades at this point. Don't want one. I refused to be tracked, monitored, or abused by anyone. And no, I sure don't give a single fuck about any of the many people (and there have been MANY) who have tried their best to shame, cajole, insult, ridicule, harass, intimidate, or bully me into getting a phone. Fuck em all.
> Your chain of reasoning is broken? Or is it your model of the world?
Maybe it's you who's broken. Why do you accept slavery? Just to fit in?
Since you're hardly the only one with a similar way of thinking, maybe we could say it's the entire society that's broken.
I simply do not tolerate the things that you tolerate.
Who could have POSSIBLY foreseen any kind of dire consequences?
At least I can be thankful it's not as crowded here as East Tennessee, North Carolina, etc are getting to be. Yet. The very bad reputation of Alabama among a certain crowd seems to keep more of those types away.
The views of rural people can be disregarded in favor of the superior City Person viewpoints, since that's what we're all secretly striving to become. Before long there will be nobody living in the country at all, because why would anyone want that?
No more fresh air or clean water for me. Nope, I'm moving to some city somewhere so I can enjoy living in a 300 sq. ft. luxury apartment with a pet cockroach. The only people still living out in the countryside will be my backwards hillbilly cousins, like in Hunger Games.
Is this where you believe things are headed? Because we all want to be you so much?
(Which quite frankly isn't much of a "standard" when there's about a dozen different real world interpretations of the code depending on which flavor of which compiler from which year that you're using.)
I also don't have to wait eons for my code to compile. Really, the mental and computational load of C has got to be 1/10 of C++.
What a nightmare C++ is, and it just keeps getting worse every year thanks to the incompetent standards committee.
I do.
> People say, out loud, "I use C and not C++" to say something about themselves.
Just like you are telling us something about yourself right now.
> ISTM that certain circles there's this perception that C is somehow more hardcore.
That's not why we use it.
There are certainly many noobs who think C is hardcore. That just goes to show how low the bar has fallen since the masses rushed into computing.
Many of these people also think of changing their own oil or a flat tire as being a superpower. Some could not identify the business end of a screwdriver if their life depended on it. Their opinion on the relatively difficulty or impressiveness of anything is to be taken with a huge grain of salt.
There are many good reasons to use C. If nothing else it demonstrates that the user is a free thinker and not a fucking muppet. It's the sort of thing that attracts me and drives you away. That's valuable.
> Nobody's impressed by using it over a modern language.
1) The word "modern" is not a magic talisman that makes anything it's attached to automatically worthy.
2) "Nobody" does not mean what you apparently think it means. Free clue: others exist in the world beside yourself and your self-absorbed clique.
3) Nobody with a brain is impressed by whatever the midwits are doing. Anyone who can fog a mirror can follow the herd off the nearest cliff. It's the outliers who are impressive.
4) Technically anything since the 1500s is "modern." It's such a vague, useless word that serves no purpose other than "virtue" signalling.
C++ is fucking garbage. Always has been. Keeps getting worse and worse every year. Enjoy your PAGES full of indecipherable gibberish ("error diagnostics"), your miserably slow compile times, and your closet full of footguns and decades old sticks of sweating dynamite. Slowest language by far, other than the so very modern abomination that is Rust. You can keep it.
The problem in both cases is the massive attack surface at every level of the system. Most of these proposals about "security" are just rearranging deckchairs on the Titanic.
If you can't keep a nation state out (and you're referring to your own state, right?) then you can't keep a lone wolf hacker out either, because in either case that's who's doing the work.
