The list goes on. There's 24 years of history you can comb through. The DHS' security theater exists solely to compromise the constitutional rights of American citizens. To this day there's no evidence they're even that successful at their job. The fact the impeachment of Mayorkas failed was quite mind-boggling but characteristic of a government that doesn't truly believe anyone, even citizens, have certain inalienable rights.

The DHS was and still is bipartisan. It's America's Staatspolizei.

Anything with touch interfaces.

So far aside from cell phones and tablets nothing has worked right.

Counter point I have a harbor-freight drill that has lasted almost a decade. I recently replaced it because I needed more torque.

If you're careful there are so, so many harbor freight tools that likely come off the back of the same Chinese factory name brands do. Their "professional" line is about 50-70% less expensive and performs as well. The impact wrench is better than a Milwaukee, and their professional torque wrench comes within tolerance to a Snap-On.

For someone who doesn't need a QA cert for insurance/licensing reasons harbor freight is a miracle. Likely because it's the EXACT same stuff. Nothing is made in America anymore.

The Dell XPS line I have bought once and will never buy again. I believe mine was a souped up 92xx. Less than a year later the battery bloated for no reason. Put another one, bloated again. Turns out there was some manufacturer issue with the charging unit in the motherboard and by that point it was out of warranty.

I will never buy another XPS. For all of apple's faults, with the exception of the 2018 model pros, I have never had much of a problem.
