• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google paid a whopping $26.3 billion in 2021 to be the default search engine everywhere⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Is there something about search engines, as opposed to other online services, that makes you expect them to be free?

  Before the human begins to decompose, the essence of the pacemaker leaves its plastic housing (the “accidentals” of the device) and goes to a realm outside of space and time to forever keep pace of the Great Heart for which it was ultimately created. The human, meanwhile, is eaten by worms.

  Also blow out the duct. So many people don’t even know that’s a thing that needs done. Took me a decade until I learned that, and it was so clogged.

  My 9 year old car had it as one of the options to show in the heads up display. It’s pretty convenient. But I can switch to something else or turn it off if I don’t want it. As long as it stays that way, there’s no need for frowny faces yet.

  They doo noothing!

  Fossils? Satan put them there to trick you.

  Light from billions of light years away? God created it in transit.

  Radiometric dating? God just poofed the isotopes to look that way

  Nothing is falsifiable when there are all-powerful beings magicking stuff willy nilly.

  Most people understand how to think without needing to know how to formalize the process.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft Defender Flags Tor Browser as a Trojan and Removes it from the System - Deform⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Taking “If P then not Q” as equivalent to “If not Q then not P” is just straight up broken thinking. Basic logic should be treated as an expected prerequisite to meaningful conversation.

  Dev and QA costs.

  Your car has no impact on them, and neither does you laptop’s hardware. But supporting old browsers would fe more work for their devs, so they likely have limits there, like not supporting IE6.
