Bananas are for scale, not mass. Gah! (lol)

Don't Panic, Go Organic!

If he "privately expresses" an opinion, why then must we be bludgeoned by it? Can't wait till I no longer need to know or care anything about #45.

This just in from WRPSA (World Rock Paper Scissors Association) a breakdown of different variations on the game: https://wrpsa.com/breaking-down-the-different-variations-of-rock-paper-scissors-played-across-the-world/

What's a good FOSS replacement?

More or less like that regarding work. And on weekends it's nice to go places, and/or have a vehicle to haul stuff. But that's not everyday. So yeah, common ownership of a vehicle for roadtrips, and/or hauling stuff would be an elegant solution.

LoL, I must be living the 'life of Riley', then. My commute is less than a mile, and almost always by bike. And most of my errands, etc can be done by bike, as well. And yet the need for a car in our family is indeed extant.

Thanks, that's helpful. I'm reluctantly considering purchasing a vehicle, possibly even relatively close to new. The ancient beater I drive when the bike won't do the job isn't subject to these issues, and might even be proof against an EMP. Tho' where the hell I'd get petrol in a post apocalyptic landscape is an as yet unanswered question. lol. I like the idea of the 'bells and whistles' of modern conveyances, and do so much in other spheres to limit corporate access that it makes sense to consider how to minimize in the case of a more modern car.

Wouldn't end-to-end encryption with, for instance, Signal sidestep some of this data collection? Specifically related to text, telephony, video conferencing? Could one use a masked email to put a layer between oneself and one's car/ car company?

I'm just 'brainstorming' as this is a big issue, and I"m sure there are folks that have done deeper study and thinking on these impacts on our privacy. What about using a VPN?

Good!

Why not both?

Awesome!

Congratulations Mann! It's a win for the whole world.

Useful Idiot.

Happens every time. yep.

Biggest shoot yourself in the foot gaf the republicans have ever done, so far. I have confidence in them... alas.

Add it to the list. Keep prosecuting till the end of his days.

Nutritional yeast, tamari, and red chili powder for me, please. I thought I didn't want any but it smells so good, and this is getting entertaining.
