South Americans must be some of the dumbest mother fuckers on the planet.

FTFY

I count myself as one of the lucky ones that isn’t forced to use Windows by the company I work for. We even have our internal (ubuntu-based) distro, and despite being passable proficient with Linux, I can count on having support if I ever need it.

That’s all fine and dandy but at work I am forced to use Windows, Office, Teams, and all that.

Yeah, me too. But all of those (except Windows of course) can be used on the browser

I feel you, I’m in the same boat

it would be cool if there was something like the Game Boy Magnifier for those modern systems

I mean, the Marshall Plan was benevolent.

No, it wasn’t. It was meant to stop the URSS from expanding further west, and as a bonus shackle the rebuild countries as loyal lapdogs that attended to any and every USA whim.

USAID and similar may make us net beneficial to Africa.

Mostly posturing. If the USA were serious about benefitting Africa they’d do something similar to what China is doing right now, partnering and building infrastructure, instead merciless exploitation and throwing a few breadcrumbs here and there.

Let’s not talk about South America.

But we should. What the USA has done here can only be labelled as evil. Overthrowing governments left and right, supporting murderous dictatorships, merciless exploitation like what it did in Africa as well. Foul, evil stuff.
