Schematic: "2022 - We've updated the circuit design to use widely-available part AB1234DL rather than the impossible-to-find one the original design used!"

<search Newark/RS/Element14>

Website 2025: "AB1234DL: obsolete, not available to order"

Sigh.

@LinuxAndYarn @GossiTheDog I've to applaud #WSJ for showing how much #Apple is shafting #consumers with overpriced #parts, because even if the #battery had only 10% tariff there's no reason for a #replacement part to cost more than $50.

Politics had totally changed, instead of having politicians, you only had puppets for the big tech companies: all those puppets did, was make sure that it's companies kept getting more financially powerful, and kept getting even more invasive, as if that were even possible

I mean they were a literally up your digestive track already, all the way to your spinkster.

Don't let me talk about flying; it takes you literally 72 hours to book a ticke; 8 hours a day you have to follow those dreadful procedures of which 90% is just ads, to finally get the seat booked with six screens pointed at you only bombarding you with advertisements.

Trains were even worse; Walls of screens, almost no place to sit, let alone sit comfortably.
In busses they left you alone, but what they did, is make the bus almost totally transparent and make sure that all the of the massive screens at the buildings were pointing at you, giving out all your personal information for everyone else to see, including your menstrual cycle, the size of your prostate, and everything else that's supposed to be medically sealed, just to show you walls and walls of advertisements regarding those medical status parameters.

And do not think that when you're finally at home sleeping, away from your dreadful job, and asleep that you sleep cycle was normal
Remember those devices that implanted in you at Birth? Those devices injected at advertisements in your dreams making your sleep horrific and tiring.

Suicide rates were skyrocketing; it was normal to lose a friend every month who succumbed to suicide because of the horrific carpet bombing advertisements raids. There were more psychiatrists than regular physicians. Funeral parlors were the only places where business was booming for the private sector, owned by fairly regular people.

Mercedes-Benz almost exclusively made funeral cars because that's what's sold the most and the best and asked for the most, by those who could still afford cars

I've just woken up from a horrific IT Nightmare.

Only commercial companies were providing services on the internet, Open Source did not exist, Linus Torvalds was never born, Netscape has never come into fruition.

Every website you went to you have to go through 12 pages of advertisements bombarding you with all the flashes all the sounds and even even HTML5 did not exist everything was Flash!

There are only two browsers available Google Chrome and Microsoft Internet Explorer. Browser extensions were non-existent; everybody went on the internet like a drone and endured the horrific bombardment of advertisements like carpet bombs falling on your mind, as if you were in Vietnam, getting bombarded by The Enemy Flying B-52 fortresses.

All the Services constantly changed their end-user license agreement, your mobile devices had eight cameras pointed at you and none to the outside world. Those devices also had seven microphones of which the worst was used for you to talk into with your people and Friends, the six others were used to listen to you environment and sent everything outside.

Tracking devices were planted in your body at Birth, you are constantly itching because of all those devices in your system, giving you skin irritation and making your complexion like that of sandpaper.

Even going outside in your garden was horrific, micro drones were constantly following you, listening and looking at everything you do, even if you don't have any mobile devices on you.

Stores were even worse, everything you bought had tracking and tracing, even The Food you ate had tracking, and traces were going to your digestive track all the way to the toilet.

And while you were sitting there you had to endure advertisements for every time you use the toilet.

There were 12 financially Rich families on the planet everyone else was economic slave.

All religions were converted to advertisement bombardment Systems and to subjugation of people to Ads

Elon Musk Finally Admits Social Security Is on the Chopping Block

The richest man in the world is trying to convince the American people that they all deserve less.
In an interview with Fox News on Monday,

Elon Musk spread debunked lies about Social Security and Medicare to justify eliminating them.

“The waste and fraud in entitlement spending … that’s the big one to eliminate, that’s the sort of half trillion, maybe six or seven hundred billion a year,” Musk said.

“That is also a mechanism by which the Democrats attract and retain illegal immigrants, by essentially paying them to come here, and they’re turning them into voters. This is why the Democrats are so upset about the situation,”
he added, unsubtly echoing a white nationalist, #Great #Replacement #theory talking point while #Larry #Kudlow nodded along.

“If we turn off this gigantic money magnet for illegal immigrants, then they will leave. And they will lose voters.”

👉Trump has said he won’t touch Social Security or Medicare, but Musk’s entitlement math makes it clear that both those programs, as well as Medicaid, are on the chopping block.

Millions of older Americans—many of them red-state Republicans—will lose the vital benefits they rely on.
And the millions of younger Americans who’ve been having those benefits taken out of their paychecks for years will never see the fruits of that.

Musk’s lies continued:

“Why are there 20 million people who are definitely dead marked as alive in the Social Security database?” he asked.

“Why were hundreds of millions of dollars of Small Business Administration loans given out to people aged 11 and under? We have an enormous number of people marked alive who are 160.”

⭐️This has been long debunked.
“The reported data are people in our records with a Social Security number who do not have a date of death associated with their record. These individuals are not necessarily receiving benefits,”
acting Social Security commissioner Lee Dudek said in February.
