I’m guessing a search on Candace Owens will bring up other non-RT articles on this for those who cannot/will not access RT.
Let me know 
Happy No Politics Day!

you know that this is harder than “no breathing day”, “no eating day” and “no complaining day” together right ?

Am I still allowed to be a cynical carnaptious bastard though? Just non-political with it?
And I’d like you to point me to the part where it says I have to take anyone elses feelings into account.
I may grudgingly admit to this if you will provide clarity on the above points.
Oh and it ends at 23:59:59 UTC tonight - OK?
Yes you can be a “cynical carnaptious bastard”. But out of respect of the holiday lets forget about politics until 23:59:59 UTC tonight!

Only if you deliver us all a slice of this cherry pie seeing it sneaked in with the “No Politics Day”.
What holiday do you Yanks have for us tomorrow?
If we are going to have to suffer this cultural hegemony, then its only fair to give us some warning.
I am a Southerner (FL), not a Yank. Regardless, tomorrow is national sticky bun day!

I am thoroughly supportive of National Sticky Bun Day and intend to celebrate it most assiduously. {{insert bun emoji here}}

Politics discussions in general is for Off-Topic and that has not changed.
Plenty of topics there to discuss whatever
Lets keep this to “What’s up today” with as little political discussions etc out of it.

Anyone remember “Micronet”. That was when Microsoft in the mid 90’s decided they were going to be the internet and own it. They were first charging to access the internet using their browser, with subscription model. MSN was the name they were giving it initially. Then Micronet later on when they had the world on subscription model.
But some annoying people wrecked that for them. A browser that was free to use and almost every tech installing it for their customers/business. Bahahahaha
Resistance was not futile

It wasn’t really public. But the name shows the intent that microsoft had back then. Gates really thought he could own the internet and totally gate keep it.

I remember CompuServ installers on the front of just about every computer magazine!
No thanks… I was never interested in walled gardens!

I had CompuServe when I was in Saudi, it was great then, but as soon as I was home it was a linux server and life was amazing. It held such great promise back then, the internet. I was amazed estate agents and recruiters were still a thing and here we are 30 years later and they still exist. It’s crazy how slow humanity is to progress.
The immune response system of a society is very strong, unless faced with immediate adversity, even then only when the adversity is at your door

It’s why I’m hoping we will all have some time to adjust to AI!

That was a major issue and in the uK no patent meant you were a scammer, so we had patents we opened up. That way we could be seen as really and prove it, but had to work hard to adapt and move things along. The patent trolls though were mental crazy vicious and killed a lot of innovation. Although the big corps were patenting like mad to try and stay able to operate. It was a crazy crazy time for stifling humanity for sure.
I feel that’s mostly over now an open source won or is very close to it anyway.
