I’ve seen worse. My coworker and I had been booked into an AirBnB once, as hotels were all full. We’ve been told “One bed and one couch” - not good, but works in a pinch. Wrong. It was one double bed in the flat of an absolute, over the top gay males couple. Not only was the double bed a thing we would not accept, but the worst was that the room was all over decorated with pictures of naked men. NOPE. Not our style.
So we went bed-hunting, and were extremely lucky to find two hotel rooms that had been cancelled by someone else that day. When we sent in the invoices to the accouting department, they were not happy - Why would we book hotel rooms if there was a booked and paid AirBnB? I sent them two photos I had taken of the AirBnB room, and they paid the hotel bill without any more questions.

I once gave our telco/internet provider the permission to call me on my main number if they have an interesting update regarding our contract. That went without problems for over ten years. One or two calls a year, and usually something worth thinking about.
Then their marketing decided to pull all stops and call us, on all our numbers, not just the main one, but also the kids personal phones. And not only from their official numbers, but random numbers all over the country. We suddenly got a dozen calls a day(!) from them, offering the same two products (at least where we picked up and declined the offer) again, and again, and over again. We blocked numbers, and new ones came up. The block list went from two entries to over thirty. I had to threaten legal action got get our numbers blocked again, and get them marked as such according to our privacy laws.

I’m boykotting Canon and Birkenstock. The first for being total idiots, spurting “open source is theft of intellectual property!”, the second because I know the owner family (the son was in my class) and they are assholes that would make Trump proud.
I think a lot of people would just be happy to see Trump cut out of the race for good. There will be no majority for DeSantis, because the Trump disciples will shun him, cutting down any possible Non-Trump REP candidate.

For many it is simply frustrating because it is not Windows. Just think about how many people have a hard time already to get the most simple things done on Windows. Can you imagine those people to switch to another platform? Those people who cannot find their banking app anymore when something moved the icon on the desktop to another position?
Who in history (either present or in the past) do you think has had the biggest positive impact on humanity?
