  • Attention Californians

    From Matthew Munson@VERT/IUTOPIA to All on Tue Jun 23 19:33:00 2026
    Your downloadable software and internet services will become EVEN more expensive when sales tax gets added. So if you pay for GMAIL 100gb plan
    it will be 19.99 plus sales tax, your digital video games will also be
    sales tax charged too.

    I also stopped paying for Office 365 when they raised the cost to $150.
    There are ways to stop feeding the state and big tech.

    I just use Libreoffice, works great for me.
