@stux Trump is demented. They aren't windmills. Windmills mill things, like wheat into flour. I just saw some windmills in Schiedam in Rotterdam. Lovely things. Bought some flour from one of them.What Trump rails against are wind *turbines*.Turbines generate electricity.Trumps generate bullshit.

@stux I wonder if Iranian hackers are attacking Lie Social? If they aren't, shouldn't they be?

@stux How about Lorene Powell-Jobs, Steve Jobs' widow? She bought The Atlantic and is 100% fighting against the fascist regime in America, and I'm pretty sure she gives a ton of money away for causes that empower women.But in general, yes, I agree. They're all narcissistic pricks. They get so much money then seem to get scared of losing it or not being the richest person to ever exist, and tread on everyone else to stay on top. Absolute arseholes.

@stux And absolutely the singular reason no one should ever buy any of his products ever again.Don't use Twitter.Don't buy a Tesla.Don't pay for StarLink.Don't use Tesla chargers or Powerwall batteries.The man is a stain on humanity, and unless we all stop giving him our money, he will continue to get rich off of us, and stay protected against his actions - even when those actions kill millions.At what point will the term "mass murderer" finally stick to this asshole?

@stux Jamie Raskin is working on it, but he said he needs some Republican votes in Congress to pass any legislation to stop it. Bryan Tyler Cohen on YouTube has an interview with Raskin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwLq0c95IlcAnd Glenn Kirschner talks about how this is blatantly illegal here (again with BTC): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnObkurmldk

@stux 3D chess is normal. Pieces move in the x-/y-axis, and the z-axis when you pick them up.If you add time as a 4th dimension then you may think Trump has planned his moves in advance or is reacting to a move, which is again like normal chess, but 4D.What we're experiencing is not chess at all. Rather, it's a bully in a playground who thinks he's winning but needs his mates to back him up, but his mates know he's a loser and won't help.He's in a sandpit throwing sand in everyone's faces.

@stux I have some apps on the iOS App Store. One has an in-app purchase, but the app is perfectly useful without it, it's just limited to 3 'things' rather than about 5,000. I barely get any sales anyway, definitely not enough to cover the annual developer fee.Two others are free games that have been on the store since it launched in 2008, and I keep updating them for free. They do not and have never had ads because the user experience is horrible.
