Agreed, but things act differently at scale and it’s not like there’s 10 billion+ hammers being used at the same time, almost all of the time, for years on end
Yeah I think blanket statements either way are misguided. Some tech does help the disabled, other tech makes their lives much more difficult. It’s like any other tool, when it’s used at scale by something aiming for optimizing profit it will have terrible side effects
You see, it actually did still save you time from finding a local shop that sells it and interacting with your neighbor
Maybe not be sexist by comparing asses to blow up sex dolls? You don’t make many friends by shitting on your friends to shit on your enemies, yeah?
Yeah, with the Vault 7 releases and recent leaks showing NSA follows homeless people’s connections (who tend to hang out at libraries due to a lack of 3rd spaces), I don’t doubt there’s specific tracking, malware and other unwanted software at libraries. I don’t have any sources of this, but it wouldn’t surprise me
Maybe I’m overly parandoid because ::gestures at everything::
So issue here is privacy, the library is likely scanning whatever device connected, not just the files and file metadata
Obviously. My local thrift stores can’t keep DVDs in stock fast enough and tend to sell out every other week. Who is paying $100/month for all the streaming services when a used DVD is $3
Awesome, thank you!
Just so I’m understanding games can be ISO format and then install diredtly?
Thanks for the info. Well, if I’m using SteamOS anyway could I do it without the steam client and no internet connection?
Would you have rather it said “pedophiles adopt and rape children” or “government fails to protect children despite background checks on potential adoptive parents and dragnet surveillance”?
I suppose I’ve never seen “straight married couple does evil act” it’s just “married couple does evil act”
Hard to suspend belief that this human became an astronaut, and can speak but couldn’t read English
Yeah I’m pretty tardigans won the organic life supremacy competition already
So if a government is going to print money, might as well print it for the citizens who are going to pay more in taxes. And wildly and sadly, citizens receiving social security will pay more in taxes if they have more to spend (and also get taxed on it as income, oddly enough). Modern Monetary Theory states this, giving tax breaks to corporations increases inflation further and only puts the burden on the workers
These are a lot of fun!
Welp, that’s enough internet for the week for me
