  • I’ve always wondered what happens in these situations? I got close one time when I went to buy some stuff at Walmart and my card was dexlined(turns out my card was stolen, spent all my money on tik tok, called bank and charges were reversed in 2 days). I had to leave without getting the food I was trying to buy so it was a little difficult figuring out meals for those 2 days but I survived.

    But at a restaurant, I can’t give the meal back. I wouldn’t assume they just write off the cost. If it was out of my control(like my example above) police should not really need to be involved. I doubt the old story of being forced to wash dishes for the night to pay for the meal is true.

    So what actually happens?



  • ? I’m confused… What does my post have to do with placebo? I know the placebo effect and how double blind studies work. But it has little to do with that statement that proving a claim should be the requirement instead of requiring proof of a negative.

    If I claim you’re an armadillo, proof should be on me to provide evidence of you being an armadillo. You shouldn’t have to prove you are not one. Any claim on anything with no evidence to show it is true should be discarded.

    It has nothing to do with placebo.









  • Based on how open source currently is funded and it’s a random github source. I wonder if, hypothetically, could iran send the owner a dm offering say $500k and get complete access to the phones of everyone running this app. I could see this being default installed on company phones if you work for the white house or federal government.

    Don’t make the github changes noticeable, keep the app working, but for example when it checks your location and sends that home imagine a slight change to also include complete browser history or list of installed apps.

    One of trump’s yes men receives a message “do what I ask or I’ll publish that you have grindr installed, your account name, and all the people you swiped right on…” that could give them insane power over the US government.
