Would you like to equip the Chicken Hat?

White is whatever the rich white guys say it is. It was never about skin color for them. It is about maintaining power, wealth, control, etc. Othering is like a hack to get people to do whatever they want.

And of course, they control the hardware and software. I wouldnt risk it as a foreign national who has occasionally done work in the defense industry, but everyone has a different risk tolerance.

I am surpringly annoyed about Americans somehow finding a way to make this about themselves

Me too, bud. Me. Too. Alas, there is no escaping them for me. I do wish more Americans could travel abroad and see the world beyond our borders. I would wager fewer than 20% of Americans have been 50 miles from our borders and it can lead to a pretty insular world view.

For the time he had, the distance he brought the Church is pretty impressive. I will go to my grave believing that organized religion does more harm than good, nothing they ever do will change my mind. That said, he really was an agent for positive change, especially compared to Darth Benedict, who preceded him.

Or you could live within your means in a low cost of living area. I know a software PM in rural Appalachia.

edit: I guess the caveat is that I dont know Apple's remote-work stance. It is certainly feasible at other aoftware companies

Nah, youre not my supervisor. I get that you hate me for having been successful. It is typical. Keep downvoting, Ill keep living my best life. And actually, I did it in less than 20 years of income.. More like 15 of actual work punctuated by periods layoffs and disability. I still made it happen though. So keep hating. 😘

Thats just what I did. I was fortunate to have a well paying career for a while and I prioritized getting free from debt. Now I have time to be my own chef. Took almost 20 years. Not that complicated. No servants tho, thats just you being salty. I never had a rich family, which you assume is the only way. I grew up in poverty. My good luck came from elsewhwere.

All I did was use CAPS and spaces. My client doesnt show it in a different font. I am using the latest Thunder client. I will check tesseract later.
