    There's a lot of people saying "well, not the year... but 2026 is going to be quite the year for Linux desktops" over the internet.

    It's easy to see where they are coming from. They just have more faith in Humanity than me.

    Nobody's said "this is going to be my year" in many many years.

    I'll throw a party when Trump is out of office or dead. Both times if they happen on different days. I'll be hoping for just the one party though.

    It will be a very interesting period when he dies, but for 4-5 days nobody dares to remove his body from the White House, thereby leaving his rotting corpse in office.

    It's the white house. You think they don't have a fridge/freezer capable of holding a body somewhere in there?

    I predict a whole "Weekend at Bernie's" DeathGate scandal where a whole bunch of executive actions and auto-pen shenanigans happen posthumously under his name, even though Vance is right there. Why? Because it's exactly the same kind of greedy and stupid this administration has demonstrated so far.

    No kidding. I'm in my late 30s, and for awhile I would tell myself that this would finally be the year that I finally make enough money to get my shit together and be a real adult, with a wife & kids, three cars, investments & money in my savings account.

    Gave up on that dream by age 30, and now I'm just trying survive another year with my fingers crossed that yet another body part doesn't join my shoulder, neck, knees, and back, and start hurting 24/7 just for shits and giggles.

    I already learned my lesson here.

    Last time I said something like that was November of 2019.

    "I'm calling it: another global pandemic-free year! And the sweet song of Lady Liberty spreading from that shining city on a hill in Washington, D.C.!"

    << The Monkey's Paw Curls >>

    2026 marks the first year in American history where a completely home-grown pandemic forces borders to close, and air-traffic to be redirected as to avoid receiving American passengers. The EU, Arab League, and countless other countries congratulate themselves on rapidly orchestrating the containment of the disease to the USA; truly a landmark moment for international relations. Meanwhile, a Georgetown-based super-PAC "La di libertine" gains untold amounts of influence in government, following an uncannily well-timed short-sale of AI-based stocks. When asked about speculations as to their ties to Italian crime syndicates and fascist hardliners, they declined to comment.

    It might finally be mine, maybe the job I want and I have a date with a girl I like a lot after Christmas... But I was doing great in 2019 as well 🫣

    2026 will have to do as my year simply because 2027 will surely be worse.

    So, if I slap you, it's assault, but if loads of people make slapping you a regular occurrence, we should stop caring?

    Wee, another person who doesn't understand how analogies work. You see, class, saying A is analogous to B is not a statement of equivalency, but a statement of structural similarity. The response 'welcome to the internet' is sarcasm meant to imply the previous responder is foolish for having standards of some kind and should simply accept and expect that people cannot be held to any standard. The further response asking the respondent, via analogy, if more people doing something is all that it takes to make it acceptable, asks them to consider the implications of the belief that repetition makes right.

    Now that you have a more fullsome understanding of things, will you demonstrate the maturity and intelligence to integrate that knowledge into action or will you demonstrate an inability to comprehend, only to raise a pretense of reason?
