Ironic...

Once upon a time, long ago, I did it for reddit but they burnt that good will to the ground. Give a corporation an inch and they'll take as many miles as they can before someone stops them: I block everything now and if it won't load then I don't bother with it. If it's really important I'll still find a way to view it but never again will I allow ads anywhere I can help it. Advertisements are a very serious threat to security and privacy. Malware and scams are routine in ads, even ads from known corporations that are supposedly safe, like Google.

TL;DR? I'm not going to hexbear.

Let's DuckDuckGOOOOOOO!

It don't mean butt if it don't got that jut.

Stormy looks so weird, did he have work done or something?

I look forward to skating or riding to work most days, but some days I struggle to find motivation.

Oh, also coffee.

Not really these days but I used to do Muay Thai until I ran out of money for training. Did a couple types of Karate and some TKD as a kid as well. My skills are relatively basic though, I was always kind of a middling student. I could probably still hold my own in a fight against your average person but anyone who really knows what they're doing would probably smoke me in short order.

Did someone say something about hexagons in here?

Yeah, spall was my first thought when I read they just shot the propellers.

Remember like 2 weeks ago when Google's very own ad networks were distributing malware?

Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Didn't they also put some sort of armoring on the propellers back then?

Speak for yourself, I am a fool.

Hell no.

I like my Pixel 8 just fine, but I turned Gemini off the minute Google tried to foist it on me. I am also considering just installing Graphene OS instead, which Pixels are pretty good for.

I thought there already at least kind of was, but then I also heard that a GOP judge shot down the precedent that the arbitration clauses don't mean shit, but then I heard another ruling that said it doesn't apply in the context of NDAs. At this point it's probably kind of a legal grey area as fucked up as it is.

Corporations re-confirming that they are evil AF and money is their god.

Ironic.
