The American Prospect has some really good recent articles about this. We've entered a new age of personal pricing. Companies have so much data on us that the price that I see when I visit a website is no longer necessarily the price that you see.

My Asus zenbook, purchased in 2015, is still going strong. They're pretty affordable and at least from my experience have held up well. I'm pretty sure you can run Linux on them too.

Democracy Now is my main source

I also listen to NPR to hear what narratives the state department is pushing

Ho Chi Minh City:

  • Man Tu Vegan - Wonderful vegan buffet, pay what you want style
  • War Remnants Museum - incredible, powerful, and devastating museum focused on the Resistance War Against American Imperialism

Hanoi:

  • Temple of Literature
  • Đồng Xuân Market
  • Ho Chi Minh Museum

In general, eat lots of street food. When crossing streets, don't stop midway, the motorbikes will go around you.

lol this comment is a great example of a lib grasping for a weak explanation instead of criticizing Hillary Clinton.
