Doing anything on Facebook is the opposite of private.

One thing most have done is incorporate more air, as part of shrinkflation. That makes it more soft because it’s less actual product.

I’m on LibreWolf. What made you switch?

The US is the primary military force protecting Taiwan, by treaty. That’s likely why.

Apple One+

Music, TV, Games, and 50GB storage for $10/month via Verizon.

Investing billions

Weren’t the headlines a week or two ago about Microsoft trying to get taxpayer funded aid for reopening 3-mile Island? Companies shouldn’t be asking for taxpayer funded handouts when they are basically printing money at this point.

Isn’t Microsoft Copilot just ChatGPT?

Nope I’m just awful.

People on the opposite side of that tolerance spectrum look at us avid ad avoiders like we put in too much effort to do that, so I see it as two sides of the same coin. I started blocking/avoiding ads due to the nuisance, long before privacy and security became even more prevalent attack vectors through advertising. That was just a benefit to the time saved by blocking ads, but not it’s a primary use case.

When developers commit source code to a shared repository (for integration in software people like us use), they have the often-squandered opportunity to summarize the changes they are submitting. Linus (rightfully) thinks this opportunity should be leveraged more appr9opriately and more often, with more quality.

Unlikely all 4 though. Give people 1-2 they can map services two, instead of multiple wasted (branded) buttons.

I’m like 80% sure they were being sarcastic in that comment. I hope so anyways.

I guess that means the US will send another $10B “self defense” aid package, again. Sigh.

In the iOS app, it was Settings > My Profile > Data & Privacy

My daughter that is under-paid because she’s a teacher and they are all under-paid is asking me for financial help, and I’m a scumbag outing her for trying to have a better quality of life with a medical procedure early in her working career.

Man, I hate the internet sometimes…

I wonder if/how many of them will be unwillingly forced to the front lines in Ukraine within a year…

I’ve had sets of LED under-cabinet lights powered on 24/7 for about 14 years. I think one bulb went bad, out of 12.

If you don’t pay for something, you are not a customer, you are the product. If you pay for Youtube, you don’t see the ads, but you are also still their product. Lose /Lose

I wish they’d propose a mandate on having the option for disconnected vehicles sold in the US, instead. Privacy-conscious people should not have to resort to finding and disconnecting antennas to reclaim privacy from sketchy data collection. I get that China is the big bad wolf in this discussion, but American companies are just as bad with the data hoarding and erosion of privacy.

I always considered atheist to mean “don’t believe at all” ans agnostic as “willing to believe, but won’t live any differently”
