Facebook will announce some new feature, spin up a few million more bots, and have a glowing report for the investors next month.

Did Bernie read my Terminator fanfic? The one where the 1% are living it up on some islands with T800 butlers while the Terminators clear out the rest of humanity?

If I were a conservative strategist, I would be desperately trying to figure out ways to get rid of that guy before the midterms. The only question would be is it better to have several months of damage control, or go for an October martyr situation.

In Jon's defense, Reddit was fairly good and useful (unlike Twitter or FB) at one point many years ago. If you're not active there it would be easy to think things are still good.

I would be more suspicious of starting the year at 3.5% and dipping to 2.23% in Feb. If we ignore that oddity it makes for a less exciting headline, but jumping from 3.5% to 5.33% in the months after Microslop canned Win10 and slopped up Win11 tracks.

I hope you are correct. If we extrapolate out, Linux could easily approach 10% as more people leave Win10 and split. There may even be a positive feedback loop where people leaving Win10 (and frustrated Win11 users) see that Linux is completely viable for gaming.
