I Tried Pre-Ordering the #Trump #Phone. The Page Failed and It Charged My Credit Card the Wrong Amount
Source: 404media.co/trump-mobile-phone…
I tried to pre-order the phone and pay the $100 downpayment, hoping to test the phone to see what apps come pre-installed, how secure it really is, and what components it includes when it comes out. The website failed, went to an error page, and then charged my credit card the wrong amount of $64.70. I received a confirmation email saying I’ll receive a confirmation when my order has been shipped, but I haven’t provided a shipping address or paid the full $499 price tag. It is the worst experience I’ve ever faced buying a consumer electronic product and I have no idea whether or how I’ll receive the phone.
I wonder how much of the smartphone is made in #China like #MAGA caps... 🤔

[A supermajority congress would serve] to embarrass the administration, to destroy the energy of the government, and to substitute the pleasure, caprice, or artifices of an insignificant, turbulent, or corrupt junta, to the regular deliberations and decisions of a respectable majority.

what this future post-capitalist world would look like. Some later
Marxists interpreted him to have suggested that, but it's hard to find
within Marx's writings any idea like that. He never wrote a book about
the state, because it wasn't the center or focus of his analyses. That
focus was rather the relationships among people as they go about
producing their existence: relationships such as master-slave, lord-serf
and employer-employee. In each one of those relationships, a minority of
people makes all the key production decisions: masters, lords,
employers. They decide what gets produced, how it gets produced, where
it gets produced, and what is done with the surplus appropriated from
productive workers.
