Honestly the damage is done. Manjaro has been an instant no from me dog for a long time. The name carries a negative connotation. Trust has eroded.

I mean you could just not use the platforms you don’t agree with. It’s all there in the EULA everyone skips. 🤷♂️
- Comment on GTA6 is gonna be crazy 🔥 1 week ago:
I don’t know if you’re joking or not so I will answer genuinely. It is used to circumvent censorship. Some platforms are strict with words. By obfuscating potentially black listed words it helps get the content past the filters.

- Comment on California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup 2 weeks ago:
This is what happens when boomers never die and stay in office for a lifetime. They don’t understand technology but are allowed to make the laws that govern their use.
- Comment on Server randomly locked up. Trying to find out why 3 weeks ago:
Memory leak eating all your ram them locking up? Is it a one time thing or is it a regular occurrence?
- Comment on Amazon BUSTED for Widespread Scheme to Inflate Prices Across the Economy— Amazon, its vendors, and competing retailers are price fixing, hiking up prices for consumer products 3 weeks ago:
That’s easy to take a noble stance when you can afford it. A lot of people rely on the cheapest prices just to get by.

- Comment on Xbox chief Phil Spencer is leaving Microsoft 4 weeks ago:
That’s a nice opinion but Atari and 3DO were selling consoles at the same time PS1 was out. That makes them competitive, no matter how large the margin.

Sega, 3DO, Atari just to name a few. Soon will be adding Microsoft to the list.

It was mostly in older model Japanese pick up trucks. Like Isuzus or Nissans or Toyotas.

Not sure if joking so I will answer genuinely.
It’s a hand brake. You pull it towards you to engage it. It made loud clicks noises all the way. Then you pull it a little toward you and turn it down, pushing it all the way back in to disengage it.

- Comment on Discord Distances Itself From Age Verification Firm After Ties To Palantir’s Peter Thiel Surface 4 weeks ago:
This is a tangent but I hate that there is very little you can do when someone else actions your picture.
Case in point, I once had a co worker take a picture of me and then (without my consent or knowledge) uploaded it to an app that “ages” you to look older (like grandpa old). Then she shows me after the fact.
I had no control over her uploading my visage to one of those ai data gathering apps. I put effort into not willingly giving the powers that be more information for my profile/portfolio.
But you’re right, that even trying to mitigate all you can, they can still build your profile without any of your own input. Just by association.
