Alan Rickman, what a treasure.

Yep I do the email thing. And yeah, I know they all share everything, but at least I make them work for it.

I don’t know how much my privacy is actually being respected but I do go for the “use as many different services as possible so no company knows absolutely everything about me.” Approach.

I have a Garmin watch. I press a button on it twice, and within a minute or so a group of people I selected recieve an email with a live link, that shows my path and current location. Once I press the button again my live location ends but the list of people can still see my whole “activity”. I think that expires on 24 hours but I’m not sure on that.

It’s use is supposedly to show off exercising? I use it when I’m out hunting public land and might be wandering away from my truck or driving to several nearby trailheads in a day and don’t want to have to remember to tell my other half “I know I said I was going to Fish Lake but so got distracted and stopped at Deer mountain and then drove to Owlfield but I parked on the south side of the trailhead but ended up walking north 3 miles…”

So I paid for nebula, but it seems totally vacant. I’m not mad, I’m happy to spend the money supporting small creators/any independent endeavour, but am I missing something??

I appreciate you sharing your views on this. You make some good points.

Everyone’s got such a huge hate boner for this bot, but I have no idea why.

In this case, by saying it doesn’t have info on the source it clues user into the fact that it’s not a very large or popular source, which is an extra bit of data readers can take with them even if they don’t do any more research beyond that.

If it was my bot, I would probably program it to do that, rather than do nothing in cases like this.

Just make sure to do it from Walmart or Lowblaw or some other government teet sucking price gouging corporation.

That’s already very common and should be shut down, but usually it applies to the particular service you are using… Not whatever this bullshit is…

This article explains what happened and where and what kind of bears…

Where did this happen, and what kind of bears?? Is it just me or is this article lacking…

Where is Yukon Canada? And is Ontario Canada inside it? Or was she visiting from our of town? This Grizzly attack was black bears?

Very interesting take, Very Talented Technical Dancer. You really gave us all something to think about.

You’re either right or pleasantly surprised. Win win

What makes you think these decisions were “ad hoc?”

What do you think ad hoc means? And what part of “we checked out this athelete and she met all of our criteria to compete in womans’ boxing” don’t you get?

What failing do you think the IOC commited in allowing a cis woman to compete in womens’ boxing?

Oof that hurts.

I really, honestly hope you never make that kind of mistake, because while it would open your damn eyes, nobody deserves that.

“Haven’t killed them yet!” Would be an awfully terrible thing to have rolling around in your head in the days, weeks, months and years after…

Thank you.

If we are just putting our own ethical limit, for me it’s 2.

1. Main residence, a traditional home like house, townhome, condo, whatever, but with full service like garbage hydro ect as is standard for the area.

2. Land, sort of what you are saying a country home, but it has to be zoned as such, not just another home in someone else’s neighbourhood. So purpose built seasonal homes, or off-grid properties with an outhouse. Not somewhere most people would be comfortable living as their primary residence year round.

After that taxes should be extreme. And companies should not be able to purchase the main residence type homes. At all. Must be a person purchasing.

Thanks, makes sence I thought it was an ACAB thing.

ACAB

Thanks, thought it was an ACAB type thing and didn’t use my thinker.

K I duckduckgo’d it and still don’t know what SPOG is. Help?

Simple example from yesterday: My stupid pixel 8 phone has a green line on the screen. I look up how to get warrantee and think “wow, at least Google knowing everything about me will be helpful in this case” and after a few misdirects to garbage online user forum to try and get me to solve this problem myself I get prompted with “which device is the problem?”

Google pixel 8

Some camera I had but was stolen, and google knows this because they refused to replace it even though I went through the bother to report it stolen to police because they claim they will send a new one

So I click the phone next page says “this phone?” -serial number

Click

That you bought on this date from us?

Click

Good news it’s under warranty! Would you like to start the process?

Thought I’d already started it but… Click

Please enter the serial number or IMwhatever code. Click here for instructions on where to find this on your phone.

… Click back 2 pages, copy and paste the # they told me

WRONG CODE

take the space that was at the front for some reason

Great! Here are the next steps…

Me: wtf is this garbage…
