I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

The Obama Hope poster, but it's a frog and it says "Hop"

Meh. I'm good with strong arming.

Nah. See about about making win 11 do what I want.

That's impressive for Windows 11 and you know it, Bill.

I use Windows for the fun stuff too. I installed it on a computer with only 4 gigs of RAM.

Ubuntu Linux.

I switched back to Windows because I still have authority over what the OS does.

It's more profitable for them to ban old hardware?
Too bad. Install it anyway.

They make more money if they choose what's installed? Too bad. You don't get a say.

Did you know you can enter McDonald's Monopoly game for free and get 20 times to win a day?

I have a bunch of snacks piled up, today I cashed in an entire meal.

I'm not in the poorest 10%, what do I care?

That's a lucky find! You can take this, make a vector with inkscape, and extrude it as thick as you'd like.

That's all that's need to send over for printing. Once you get the hang of it, it's not much work, maybe an hour.

Peter - Wackomedia @wackomedia.bsky.social · 2d

Running this right now. Way easier than then how I was doing it before.

If you intend to keep using Windows, you can remove the "AI" garbage and telemetry with Windows 11 Debloat.

It also works on Windows 10, because Windows 10 ALSO has Copilot.

‼️ this is one of the reasons why the Musk shutdown of USAID broke me, like

Congress said 'we're allocating these funds to save lives'

a random asshole with too much money and unresolved bitterness about the end of Apartheid said 'no you're not'

so the funding disappeared??

and people are dying??

Hunter @hunterub.bsky.social · 3d

There's literally no reason for Congress to exist if any random freak in the presidential orbit can nullify laws and seize federal funds. All of this is plainly illegal, but Mike Johnson leads the most corrupt Congress in US history (and by a wide margin.)

Look man, I'm not complaining that it's too expensive, we're saying CELINE doesn't hit.

You want luxury? You want REAL bespoke? Buy a 4K handmade jacket from Gabi and you get higher quality and greater exclusivity.

Kept seeing photos and vids of celeb people wearing CELINE merch. I was curious what kind of luxury I was looking at.

$3650 for a letter jacket

WTF. Me and my sewing machine just clutched our pearls in poor.
I've made two and both were easily under $100 in materials.
