Lemmy only has the information that I give it.

And it demands fairly little information.

I’ll take that in exchange for nobody privately owning as much of my shit as they can get their filthy hands on.

Yeah that’s a little unhinged

There’s a pretty big difference between stupid declarations about things that simply aren’t true, and trying to start a conversation. I just assumed with an axiom like that there was no conversation to be had.

Hamas is a jihadist organization though…

If they don’t represent the majority maybe they should hold elections and let a party that represents the majority take the lead?

There’s no extermination. Quit getting your talking points from Tiktok and Twitter.

It’s technically our second place and it’s bigger, newer, but needs a bit of updating.

It’s not everything we wanted and between closing costs, moving costs, the exhaustion of moving and adjusting to the move I don’t think we’re going to do it again before we’re priced out of the thing we want.

We were hedging against either a bigger market correction or a bigger price explosion. Instead we just got weird global stress and fatigue.

Right, it’s just a front door lol. I never considered that was a thing.

Pyramid scheme, not profit scheme.

Pyramid because the shape is a pyramid.

The first person, the one who sent out the original picture, received X books and sent none.

The next layer sent one book, and possibly received up to 36.

But those 36 each need 36 new people. It’s impossible. You’d hit the population of the earth in just a few rounds.

The companies BUILD IN backdoors so that they can steal your data.

But because the backdoor is built in, they have to constantly monitor and update the security around it so that “bad guys” (they don’t think they are the bad guys) don’t get in.

They only do security updates to prevent liability iirc.

The whole thing stinks.

Note: I’m not a software developer just an outraged bystander with tech hobbies and techy friends, it’s possible this isn’t true.

But if you tell the customer how much things cost they won’t buy as much.

It’s just layer upon layer of dishonesty. The only time businesses get honest is when the government forces them to.

There’s no place like home Reddit.

There’s no place like home Reddit.

There’s no place like home Reddit.

You pick songs, they squeeze ads and other songs in between (IIRC) and can gather data from how you interact with all of that.

You’re understanding the value of big data.

It’s why I reject all of these services. CDs, baby!

And the volume is cranked too high.

And they are intentionally annoying.

And the last time I had a video on without my adblocker, an ad came on that was literally a person acting like they were a content creator. It was over 3 minutes long. I was only half paying attention (I was driving and just listening to the video) and when I realized it was wrong I thought I had bumped the phone and changed videos. It was so disorienting.

All the ads are lies or propaganda. I hate them. I actively avoid products that find a way to force their ads in front of my face.

Yeah I’m as confident about the shit chocolate as this guy is about the chocolate shit.

Literally all modern evidence points to the healthier tribal and nomadic humans having animal-based diets.

Healthier teeth, healthier skin and hair, longer lifespans, better musculature.

I hate Elon Musk and I still like the cybertruck.

I’m ashamed but I’d probably buy one and be happy with it, 100% in the city, doing mostly light hobby work, towing a boat, or locally camping.

Look at the tires, they are pretty suboptimal.

I switched to an EV 3 years ago and there is way too much torque at low rpm. The power curve just probably isn’t designed for loose dirt. Not to mention the cyber truck weighs a billion pounds.

Firefox with Adblocker Ultimate working fine for me as of last night. I’ll check again tonight.

Seriously, I don’t know why this is news.

Wait, yes I do, half the population is stupid.
