  Do I want people to die? Nope. Live forever, or of old age or whatever. Do I want people to stop belittling others and spreading hatred and lies and for them to cease it forever? Yes. Do I wish that Kirk saw the light or the end of a gravy train and apologized publicly and disavowed all his bs? I wanted this more than anything. I would also love to see the other propagandists and conspiracists maybe think hard about consequences of their actions and cease their lies, but I live in the real world, unlike them.

  Anytime your phone reaches out to towers it’s being tracked. Hell, HAM radio operators can be tracked with gprs just by micing up. It’s part of the reason I still have my license. The other is having a backup if I go somewhere with no phone reception. I don’t have an ear for code but I can pump out SOS or scream mayday on all the frequencies (and yeah, of course it’s a flashed handset, I will pay fines if it means mine or others lives are saved)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft still can't convince folks to upgrade to Windows 11⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I got Windows 11 just because my work pc was Win 11. I learned where everything got moved. I use Bazzite Linux at home now. Loving it. Learned a lot and I’m still learning. Now I need to learn how to overwrite Windows 11 with an older version without fudging my GRUB (again, I really don’t like having to fix that thing)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI Startup Flock Thinks It Can Eliminate All Crime In America⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  How to stop crime in America in one easy step: lose all laws. Runnerup solution: hold wealthy accountable to existing laws and remove loopholes for the elite, allowing wealth inequality to balance and improve access to education and basic human needs. One to me seems more practical, but I’d bet that many see both as equally horrible solutions.

  I use wyzecams cause they’re cheap. I have thought about maybe adding a dvr drive to my nas and adding a docker container for them instead of wyze software. But I also just use them for outdoor use, watching my driveway and doors. Was disappointed that paying for one camera instead of sdcard only mode didn’t retrieve footage when my sdcard failed, so stopped paying. I only show what I view as public though. So not too worried about privacy. I live on a secluded drive, and most visitors are raccoons and opossums (which is why I have one camera on chickens)

  Shipping is still free if orders are over $35. Add to cart, order when you have enough. Their 2 day shipping has become bs these days anyhow. “It’s 2 days from when the order is processed.” I bought the shit, money came out of my account, it’s processed. I have made a legal exchange with the expectation that your mutli billion company can place an order and box shit near immediately from 50+ warehouses. I order in the morning, and you’re telling me it took you 2 days to get that order with a preprinted label onto a truck?

  I’ve always thought a BASIC international language would be great. I mean, there’s already international sign language, and Arabic numerals are pretty universal. Doesn’t need to be poetic, or intense. Just “Me want this, I need this” type of structure. Maybe a modified version of Latin, with all gender neutral variants.

  Our healthcare system in the US is Socialism, only the government funds the corporations with subsidies, not paying outright for the citizens. It’s a man in the middle system where they stick a middle finger up your ass to get money from you three times. With taxes, with insurance, and with actual medical care.

  There are ways to make any firearm fully automatic. Some are even legal. Why anyone wants to blow $50 in under 30s is beyond me though. Even military uses burst for a reason, your aim will be off 10 bullets in. Suppression is a different story, but less likely a situation for avg citizens (for now).

  I’d raise you in that. Companies are people now. If companies break laws, they should be held accountable personally. Even Club Fed would be misery for 14 years on a murder rap.

  By the time H3 comes out your great great great grand children will be reminiscing about how games once were about gameplay and plot and not the 100th version of Call of Duty or Assassins Creed. I’d say Madden too but let’s face it no one will play it 150 years from now unless it’s VR.

  Nah, most likely Veggie Tales. Elmo is too woke and might cause dissonance with supremacists and Christian Nationalists. Oh, wait. I just repeated myself - sorry.

  There are legitimate needs for the mythopoetic male movement. Problem is, it has been abused and warped by mysogyny into the Proud Boys, Andrew Taint, Jordan Peterson, etc. to exploit vulnerable males for profit and power at the cost of cultural degredation. Like all things, it’s nuanced and overshadowed by the bad faith actors

  And yet it is used as the bogeyman anytime someone mentions the dirty word “socialism” in the US. Despite the fact that Socialism at this point would have to be better better than the crony capitalism we have now.

  I really really hate that they call themselves a socialist party… like the KKK calling themselves Racial Unity.

  Yeah I recently switched from cable to fiber (finally available), and prior I was using an old as fuck modem/router that capped at 500Mbps. My internet at fastest was 380. I rarely transfer files over the network, so figured why bother? (I did have Gen1 Google Mesh though to cover dead spots). I had a bit of a shopping splurge when I got fiber. Nothing crazy, just an upgraded mesh and a switch (Why the fuck does Frontier provide an ONT with 8 ethernet ports but only one is active?)
