I live <.5 miles from Sprouts and Costco, yet it’s so sketchy to cross the intersection as a pedestrian that I have resorted to driving for groceries 🥲

Elon better watch out! Four more of those and they might get a formal warning! A few of those in human trials and that could lead to a write up. Five of those and they’ll be looking at the possibility of a flat fine of an amount limited by the state!

The article literally says they sell your data to advertising partners. You’re paying a monthly subscription to give away your personal data for something as basic as a fucking printer. If HP doesn’t die my hope in humanity will be gone.

Imagine your thermostat sold your data so companies could solicit you with coats to buy, or your fridge sold the data of what food you have so shitty brands can beg you to buy their low quality trash because they spent half their budget on advertising.

I’m preaching to the choir but god I hate the ever growing data broker/aggressive targeted advertising trend.

To be fair, most of the content is written by AI’s, so it’s AI training AI

Just use notepad++?

I also just got a new job jan 1st. Submitted applications for a few positions, got an interview with 1 and an offer. 40% salary increase. Meanwhile my company was talking about how they couldn’t offer any raises because the job market was so bad right now lmao.

There’s a massive network of tunnels with 1000 tons of hummus underneath it.

They probably assumed people would know which state they’re talking about. Classic Maine character syndrome.

Abraham Lincoln.

Maybe let me disable the useless emoji feature that pops up on mouseover rather than right click, maybe make it so copying messages after a triple click doesn’t copy the timestamp and sender by default but rather just the damn message contents, maybe add some of the incredibly useful features that apps like discord added years ago ie adjusting volume of specific people in a call, better noise filters, customization options beyond the extremely basic options they have right now, etc.

That would almost certainly be a better method than superdelegates and corporations/lobbyists/PACs influencing the election. The election is a year out and we already know with certainty who our two choices will be, and at least one of them would never be an option for most people.

California needs to sell all their available housing ASAP, especially for Chinese real estate tycoons with dependent investors

Go ahead and spend $50 to form your own opinion. Be sure to leave a review!

I tried posting a negative review that mentioned a quid pro quo (offered a gift card in exchange for a 5 star review) and Amazon removed it for not being relevant to the product. So baseless 5 star reviews are allowed but not 1 star reviews.

You wouldn’t ask your boomer parents to block ads that will likely get them to install viruses or get scammed? They are easily the demographic that would benefit the most from ublock.

This is true even today. Ads are shady af and even the top link on Google is often a literal scam/virus. Ie for years if you looked up the most popular game client for runescape - runelite - the very first link was a fake version that stole your login info. They paid Google and Google said ‘not my problem’. Not to even mention ads on other sites like Facebook. Even in the cases where an ad isnt a blatant scam or virus, ads are inherently dishonest by design and there is no consequence for using them to lie about your product.

“While another ended up spending nearly a week in jail because he initially couldn’t afford to hire an attorney.”

Regardless of context, this sentence is so dystopian and fucked up.

Neuroscience, not yet. Data science absolutely is though.
