Thank god! Touch screens on the stuff in cars are a huge pain in the ass if you have hands as big as mine and the icons are all tiny

Even though I’m disabled and can’t work, I don’t have the time or the energy to maintain something like that

Greed. And the genuine belief that “the world is not enough”

Yeah, AI is really just a surveillance tool than anything else.

When AI “creates” something, it’s just pulling up things related to words you typed in and making an amalgamation of what you typed in out of what it has.

The real purpose is for corporations and governments to look through people’s devices and online storage at super speed.

this is why you all need to be using end-to-end encrypted storage for everything and VPNs with perfect forward secrecy

do your own research into the history of each provider of those things before you buy it

yes.

There’s never an equal number of each bacteria though.

I responded to a different comment explaining more.

Micro biology changes a lot faster than what you see in complex multi-celluar organisms.

So there’s an odd number of each kind of bacteria in the gut?

Also, one bacteria isn’t equal to another of a totally different kind, there’s some that can survive better than others, there’s good and bad bacteria that has a high survivability against the invasions of others.

There’s probably trillions of different kinds of bacteria and each one has its own capabilities…and let’s not forget, they share genetic information with each other all the time.

So after the snap, there’s probably a lot of people who have fucked up gut biomes and other people with extremely healthy ones. Because there’s a different quantity of each kind of bacteria inside of each living thing.

That would probably cause some insane mutations in the next coming months after the snap too. Half the bacteria being gone means there’s 50% less genetic material for them to share.

50% of each living thing, so each kind of bacteria you have in your gut is reduced by 50%

Not 50% of all the bacteria

wikipedia isn’t a real source of information

And yes, I use multiple layers of adblocking. Including an ad-blocking web browser

I don’t like Brave because the CEO is a homophobe

too many false accusations like that go around for me to believe any of that crap. Google makes all kinds of propaganda for all kinds of stupid shit, they want people to stop using adblocking software, why wouldn’t they fabricate that bullshit too?

brave?

I’ve only been mistaken as an employee in one store I used to frequent. I was very disappointed when all three of those other customers actually accepted I didn’t work there.

I was in the camping section checking out the flashlights and the idiot that actually worked there wasn’t expected to learn what those lights will actually do. Told the customer it runs at the maximum output for the runtime of the lowest output because the employee only looked at the simplified status on the side of the box.

I had to show the customer the chart on the back of the box where the runtime and brightness of each mode is listed there and talked at length about all the different lights on display that I saw and was familiar with.

When I stepped away three different customers asked me about stuff in different departments of that store and I told them I didn’t work there. Some of them gave me a dirty look, others were more chill about it.

You can make anyone believe you’re supposed to be somewhere if you just act like you know what you’re doing. But in this case I actually did know more about those flashlights than the employees did.

they do. They also accept bitcoin

The first was ivpn but their server speeds were trash.

Their server speeds are great now. I tried them. They just have a very small number of servers compared to those other three

those things are very poorly made and all the most important parts are made of cheap plastic that an average person can literally rip off with his or her bare hands

Our ancestors exterminated anything furry or tasty and wore the skin of those animals we hunted.

obviously the shitty VPNs like NordSurshark, TorGuard, Tunnelbear, cyberghost and PrivateInternetExpress suck…pretty much every VPN that’s part of some giant conglomerate sucks ass in terms of privacy and security

But then there’s iVPN, Mullvad and ProtonVPN and even Adguard VPN which do very little to no advertising at all and allow their products to speak for themselves. I mean…Kitboga and RionaPoison are sponsored by Proton, but Proton is a good company that takes their security and the security of their swiss-law-abiding users very seriously.

Don’t be a scumbag and Proton won’t snitch on you.

roundabouts with more than one lane are stupid, it’s a round about, it only needs one lane.

I don’t know how to repost on lemmy, but yeah.

Your accent is made up, you’re only putting extra effort into saying and spelling things wrong.

your roads are designed by idiots. Why does a round-about need more than one lane? You have too many old buildings that are always on the verge of crumbling to dust, either tear them all down, or stop using those old ways of construction. People stopped making buildings with those methods for a reason.

Also…over in the UK, you can be locked up for posts on social media that that powers that be determine are “offensive” You also don’t have to show yourself in court when you accuse someone of something in the UK

And the only reason you have nuclear arms or 99% of the other military equipment you have is because of your partnership with America the great. Without our support you’d have been overrun by your current and former enemies many times by now.

Suck on Florida if you don’t like it
