  Nicotine is synergetic with amphetamines, double win.

  Except if the crackhead wrote what the AI wrote, he’d be prosecuted for conspiracy, solicitation, or whatever.

  There’s nothing wrong with snitching if someone is unduly threatening you.

  I never get back pain, because I get it all in my shoulders and neck instead.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trans people in Kansas are being ordered to surrender their drivers licenses⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Nice thought, but the law says “sex at birth”, they probably know it from social security records or whatever. And your “incorrect” license isn’t valid while waiting for appeals… and it’s not like they’d prioritize it anyways. Messed up situation.

  Is Violet8 the evolution of Mickey7 ?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK Your smoke detectors should be replaced every 7-10 years⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  sends a company to check if they still work every year

  Wtf, isn’t it just pressing a button…? Though I guess you avoid the risk of people forgetting.

  It’s also required in Sweden, but the building owner is responsible for installation, whereas the people living there are responsible for testing that it still works.

  I hope her reports continued to “take an entire day”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Remember when car controls weren't complicated⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve just never seen one like that, it has always been on my right hand side in every car I’ve had.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Remember when car controls weren't complicated⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey grandpa, what does that “push button & turn” thingy do? Handbrake?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uhhhh sure?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It can be, if you’re driving a non-ICE car and plan your driving. But still usually not worth it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's up with "Plex Servers"?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why would that matter? It just looks like HTTPS traffic if you set it up right. And even if they fingerprint it as Plex, they can’t see what exactly is playing. Yes, my Plex library only has public domain content of course.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: starting Feb. 1, passengers arriving at US airports nationwide without a REAL ID or another acceptable form of identification, such as a passport, will face a $45 fee⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lots of Americans traveling domestically. I was also in awe of that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can anyone explain why?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Is illicit Adderall in the US “real”? Or are they usually pressed fakes?

  I never understood why speed is/was so uncommon when I was in the US a long time ago. I was offered basically everything there, but never normal speed (without methamphetamine in it) like in Europe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can anyone explain why?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Stimulants like Adderall and Xanax are often misused to cope with academic and social pressures.

  I never knew benzodiazepines were stimulants.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Noooooo⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The thing is, people usually suck at explaining themselves… so instead of a <5 minute telephone interrogation, it’s suddenly a 15+ minute back-and-forth chat. But yes, I’d much rather answer a quick well-detailed text question.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Make Microsoft's CEO cry by installing Chrome's 'Microslop' extension⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Doesn’t work anymore because “money = good/powerful/special”. You use Linux because you’re a cheapskate, not because Microsoft is shit. Etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X’s deepfake porn feature clearly violates app store guidelines. Why won’t Apple and Google pull it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s disgusting that X probably doesn’t see a problem with it, but it still wouldn’t be legally classified as CSAM, no?

  Did you also go to imagefap and shit brix?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hacktivist deletes white supremacist websites live on stage during hacker conference⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  But they’re invisible, so don’t waste your time looking for them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Never ever ask out a retail worker⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, it’s still inappropriate to ask such a “hypothetical” question because it forces some kind of answer.

  If you’re really set on trying to initiate something with someone who’s on their job, write your phone number on a paper in advance and say directly before leaving “text me if you want to get a bite to eat” or something. But please don’t.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I fucking ♥️ industrial society and its consequences⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I assume this is the US? Is it really cheaper for the company to import chicken wings and some cheese, or why’s it not domestically sourced? I don’t get it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Vietnam introduces tougher penalties on e-cigarette and heated tobacco use⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  vapes harmless

  They’re much less harmful than cigarettes. But we don’t know long-term stuff, especially with all the different product blends that exist. But I agree, it should be legal to vape where it’s legal to smoke.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨i can't handle coffee⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  the shits

  I thought that’s why we drink coffee, no?

  Having even more propaganda control is the true problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. consumers are so fucked up, that they put more than $1 billion on buy-now, pay later services during Cyber Monday⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, the card issuers are already making bank from the interchange/issuer/processing fees, as well as interest if the customer eventually isn’t able to pay their full balance in time.

  But if you’re a perfect person and always pay your full balance every month, there’s literally no negatives with a credit card as a normal consumer. It’s usually even a better alternative, as if something goes wrong, a credit chargeback is much quicker and easier than a debit chargeback.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. consumers are so fucked up, that they put more than $1 billion on buy-now, pay later services during Cyber Monday⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A legally required age verification will be introduced. We want this to take effect as soon as possible to prevent minors from using BNPL.

  Wait, it’s legal to put minors into debt in the Netherlands? In Sweden, a minor wouldn’t be liable to pay any such invoice, as minors can’t sign any legally-binding agreements without their guardian’s consent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We all do this⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  PARKTRONIC has existed on Mercedes for like 20+ years… how is it an unreasonable assumption that you would have such a feature if reversing impacts your stereo volume?
