Clairvoidance

That’s monitoring you and your closests’ other behavior, as well as monitoring then nudging you towards wanting certain things. The ad itself is the last nudge in that chain that tries to go “you wanted this, don’t you?” after all of the other thinking it’s making a case for your life being better with it.

That’s a nice rice even, what the hey, kinda makes me wanna fuck around in wms again

She contractually cannot complain

probably the judicial branch actually

schumer the secret (public?) accelerationist

blue contrasts the wall better, even with the auto-white-balance taken into account

Well, always felt that.

I’ve had that feeling over photos taken 2 days prior.

I can’t tell if it’s just some mild version of body-dysmorphia

What they should do is one of those replace-words add-ons making rightwingers talk positive about DEI or talk shit about anti-immigration, see how quick people above 60 nationally change their mind

My parents had some of the ancient ubuntu (or ubuntu based?) distros that they let me play with, I myself tried Manjaro in 2017 for a month (very scuffed back then), and then full Arch Linux since March or Apr 2021

Haven’t bothered switching since, but if I did, I’m lightly curious on the NixOS hype. Why yes, I just installed Arch Linux for the archbtw, but also it feels like it just works for me at this point (yknow, till the next fuckup akin to the grub2 fiasco)

Power Off to secure that things get updated and resetting float integers in case they would go haywire

Poweroff could use more write cycles on the SSD because it has to read everything at startup, but suspend has to keep supplying power to the RAM

for this, I would say SSD is more valuable personally, so if that was my only reason, I’d suspend to RAM every time

My computer’s generally doing stuff I have it set to do, so I don’t suspend to RAM

Laptop gets turned off when going outside, also encrypted

2 with 3’s handle,

2’s head is just weirdly always satisfying

but 2’s handle is a bit comical

Fair

Sorry, I don’t mean to say it’s unnecessary in the event of a breach, you’re absolutely correct there, I was just spitballing on the idea of encryptions without self-destruct buttons in majority non I-am-highly-targeted-by-CIA scenarios, how vigilant you’d have to be. With house warrants for instance, I was like “well, as the likelihood of them going being able to decrypt increases you should be on the look-out for alternative methods or harder encryption yeah”

I was by no means saying this is an ‘after breach’ scenario. Modern solutions don’t save you retroactively, that wasn’t the point.

Modern solutions for modern problems, ie, update as needed (and algorithms potentially invented)

Alternatively hide it under the floorboards, with a nail over it and a hammer nearby as needed

Yep, if they can control thought patterns, they can control what you do, and then they can control what you want

The end result being “well why wouldn’t I want ads that show me personalized ads? I’m likely to give more of a shit”, not knowing that you’re signing yourself up for potentially even limiting your nuances Surveillance Capitalism style

Keeping away from X is more of a health thing honestly,

I know at least for me, it leaves me worse off reading through posts on there even if I’ve tried to fight them

yeah they just work to get their own Shariah-Law

LETS GOOOOOOOO

Bernie and Warren were definitely contributers to making Biden move on minimum wage,

but everyone who actually remembers when the Democrats had the majority knows better than that

the democrats did not have the overwhelming majority (60) that can surpass a filibuster, and yeah, the big-tentism hurts to an extent with more conservative democrats, but the states they come from don’t have a lot of alternatives in terms of what type of politician is going to get voted.

Democrats have the power to stop Trump right now, which they’re failing to do

Trump is engaging in a lot of bypassing that the judicial branch should be taking care of, but the judicial branch is compromised. They could in theory prevent bills that require overwhelming majorities yes.

They can and should protest it, but a lot of it is on the judicial branch saying no and reversing demands by the executive branch
