It won't hurt no one, but it's the same principle as yelling fire in a loaded theater, in that it can get someone hurt if they freak out.

One of the things I warn people about privacy is that it's not about what they might find, it's about what they might pretend to find.

Plenty of dirty cops plant evidence. Who's to say they don't like someone and keep a flash drive full of Cheese Pizza to plant on their computer. Usually that kind of logic gets people on board more easily.

The fun thing is, old AI slop helps new AI slop look more believable. The main tells is line work and fonts. Chat GPT has a very distinct art style, with a lot of soft lines and generic fonts. It's also extremely consistent. You could look up a dedicated sub for Chat GPT memes to get a feel for it. Then you'll start to loathe it.

Making your own food is normal for a lot of people here too, but I know a ton of people who just eat garbage all the time. My grandmother just eats all the time. She will just sit down and eat an entire pan of fried potatoes back to back, and my dad and stepmom just eat fast food every day. I had a nightmare where I was forced to watch my family eat junk off a table and then they got taken away once they got so fat to be butchered. I've been getting sick lately thinking about it, and my room mate keeps nagging me to eat way too much. I hate how fat I've gotten.

Yeah, but if they didn't they might actually have to interact with the poors, and they can't have that.

I guess if I had to throw some shade at M$, I really hate how garbage the registry has become. Back in the day it was great for very specific solutions and some personalization, but now I have to crawl through hundreds of drop downs on a fresh install just to fix simple things on Microsoft's own software.

You can move the taskbar back to the left, it's a setting in the context menu. But by all means, please don't let that drag you away from Linux. Windows is going to get a lot worse in other ways soon. It always does.

What a waste of good butter.

The last number I was given was that anyone who makes more than a converted $20,000 per year is in the global top 10%. There used to be a global income comparison tool that showed where you stand on the global scale. I feel 90% confident that any individual person reading this is someone who is above that line, especially if they can afford things like internet and electric together. Those kinds of guys are driving cars to work and eating out, instead of making their food every single day and listening to radio because they can't afford any luxuries.

I agree that it ain't exactly smart to say everyone in a developed economy is doing well, but I want to remind anyone reading this to count their blessings and consider their own impact just as much as they try to hold the worst offenders accountable.

I had a Philippine friend who kept getting called Mexican in high school, and the same people who said that are voting for Trump. Extract from that what you will.

For these people, brown skin = Mexican. Kind of like how they attacked Sikhs after 9/11.

They don't actually care about the difference, they just want to hurt brown people.

Undeniably a majority. We can't ignore the fact that we have impact on climate too. Big interest want us to argue over blame rather than try to fix the problem (Them). That said, I don't commute by aircraft daily like Taylor Swift and every other rich person.

If you're reading this, you're in that 10%.

Deepest sleep of today vs the deepest sleep of all time.

Teens are a really bad workforce to rely on. It's always been understood that kids work for their own benefit, and the business just happens to benefit from that. They need a savings so they can move out on their own when they graduate. This isn't for their benefit, this is so companies can fuel their needs for wage slaves.

When you go to hell, you're strapped to a chair and forced to watch ads that spoil major plot points of the movie.

Then when you watch the movie in theaters, the pre-movie ads are ads that spoil the major plot points of several other movies.

An eternal chain of ruin, for your sins.

Ah great, now the hub is going to be flooded with this.

I'm not sure if I want to work for a company that doesn't. That seems incompetent.

Incompetent management is the worst to work for. I can handle people who make bad decisons or assholes, but I can't stand assholes who make bad decisions. Which is probably why I hate myself.

I wish he did so people would realize how much of an idiot he is. But then again, this is Maga.

I hadn't really gave it much thought, but the coloration of the hat is pretty similar to the arm bands. At this point, I'm not convinced it was an accident.
