Taken down long ago. I think on day 3

For example, my sleep apnea machine had a wifi for home and a LTE modem. Data gathered by the machine was sent off-site...no reports available on the host. Privacy policy read it would gather info, run diagnostics on itself and the local network without explanation of what it was doing.

My sleep data could not be viewed by me, only through the 3rd party, so I ripped out the wifi board and LTE chip. I haul the machine into my doctor office so he can cycle through data on the tiny display.

He hates it, but I remind him he picked the machine without asking me if I agreed to to the data collection.

Buy good shoes, a good mattress, and a good chair. You'll spend 95% of your life in them, be comfortable

So many devices come with those now.... I open up my products and remove the card, the antenna, or the whole board if possible.

No, he lives on a host in your data center.
He tried to get to the cloud but githubs actions threw him down to the ground.

He's as disappointed in the witcher as the rest of us

I tried running a forum.... With 24 hours I had 10k posts for Russian porn... And I followed best practices to set it up.

Yes, it was exactly that.

We dont need open borders, we need a immigration system that can deal with the number of people seeking asylum.

You want a steady stream not a flood.

But I get why people risk it to come here. You can walk down the street without worrying about getting killed, kidnapped, tortured, raped.... How about we send some of that 895 billion of pentagon dollars to Mexico for law enforcement instead. Like 10 billion, 1 jet fighter. Make Mexico safe for civilians, create job opportunities, and illegal immigration will slow.

So, food stamps so that people don't starve.....
Oh and just an FYI, immigrants can't vote. Just so you know.

During the Obamacare debates, we were sooooo close to getting a public option....you could taste it. But powers that be didn't want to introduce Medicare as an option because it would upset the status quo and for profit health care aystem

If there are 4 people in line for a cashier, take away the cashier and you still have 4 people in line waiting for the kiosk.... And it will take longer because ordering from the kiosk is a slow process.

Nope, just faster and easier.

If 42% of crimes used a handgun, we should ban those too.

Fuck all, I hate those things. Just pay a teenager to take my order with a judgemental expression. I hate self checkouts, I hate self order kiosks, no I do not want to use a phone app to place my order, I just want a double cheeseburger with no pickles GODAMMIT

I personally HATE those places where you walk inside and you need to use the stupid touchscreen. I've asked someone to take my order, they say no. So I get in the car and go to the drive through where you still get a person taking your order.

And don't forget about separating parents from children, holding illegal immigrants in overcrowded cells made from chain link fences inside buildings.... They are America's version of the Show me your papers patrol.

Iirc, either the Colbert report or John Oliver did a story on Sinclair owned stations and how anchors were forced to read prepared stories that were obviously right leaning propaganda.

I see the difference as Would is indicative of intent. E.g. would you drink coffee Could us indicative of ability. E.g. could you drink coffee

And this we get the best ending lyric from Alice in Chains..."if I would, could you ?"

Pihole is great. Easy to setup. Runs on $80 worth of hardware on a raspberry...
