Do you want all the herpes simplexes? Because this is how you get them.

So weird that my body just decided “Nah, Im good with dairy products” all on it’s own.
That’s actually the normal way your body is supposed to be. Most mammals lose their tolerance a little after they are weaned. Only some portions of humans retained lactase in their guts, generally groups that were pastoralists retained lactase and other groups didn’t. It’s why most east asian don’t have lactose tolerance but Mongolians, some Sub-Saharan Africans, and Europeans do.

I’ve eaten more blue cheese than most, tho
Bleu cheeses are the best. I get some gorgonzola from my local cheese mongers that is to die for. On salads I don’t think there is any better cheese.

The Orange Catholic Bible is against all thinking machines, not just AI/AGI. It’s why they have Mentats instead of using computers and calculators.

It’s not being an asshole. It’s correcting misinformation. Sniffing packets doesn’t mean you understand networking as evidenced by the fact you think the modem is broadcasting your computer’s MAC address.
Just go read up on networking and you’ll realize that wouldn’t make sense.

I believe Kodi supports IR remote controls.
- Comment on Newly purchased Vizio TVs now require Walmart accounts to use smart features 5 days ago:
The biggest differences are speed and max amount of ram per module. For a htpc those shouldn’t matter much. I wouldn’t personally go to ddr3 unless I had some free sticks hanging out since the spec is about 20 years old now.
- Comment on Newly purchased Vizio TVs now require Walmart accounts to use smart features 5 days ago:
Personally i’d rather pay more than have these assholes tracking my viewing habits. But you could throw ddr4 in it. Should be fine for a simple HTPC.

Just build a media pc. Those media sticks have trackers and telemetry too.

No it doesn’t. Go learn about networking, the OSI model, and ARP tables if you believe that.

Routers are not modems.
- Comment on The FCC decided that all foreign-made consumer-grade Internet routers are prohibited from receiving FCC authorization and are therefore prohibited from being imported for use or sale in the US. 6 days ago:
If foreign made routers pose a severe cybersecurity risk then why would you let the current ones on the market stay? If they were truly a problem you’d remove them from the market, not grandfather them.
But like everything with this capricious administration the real reason they’re doing this is probably because someone greased their palms.

Oh no. What will we do.
Oh yeah. just build one in a white box.

I really hope at Nuremberg 2.0 that “I was just following the AI” gets as much punishment as “I was just following orders”.

I disagree with you but don’t worry about the downvoters. There is a certain subset of fediverse users who will downvote anything remotely against their views no matter how banal the statement is.

Both systems are completely arbitrary. It’s weird that you would think using either would be a mark of selfishness.

- Comment on Cyberattack on vehicle breathalyzer company leaves drivers stranded across the US 1 week ago:
According to some stats I found there were about 350k interlock devices in use in the entire US in 2016. That’s a tiny fraction of the amount of drivers we have. Unless they’re all concentrated in the same spot and have tripled or more in numbers this isn’t going to be a problem in a population of 350 million.

You keep replying. If you don’t want to engage in discussion then block me. But getting mad because someone has a different view than you is fucking weird.

I didn’t say it was unfair. I said it was rage inducing.

There is difficulty to be had but not once was it unfair or anger-inducing
I mean, scorpion lord is pretty damn rage inducing. But i love soulslikes so that didn’t bug me too much.

I loved it. The combat can be a bit repetitive but it’s a decent soulslike. There a bunch of secrets in it and i love exploring.
- Comment on Cyberattack on vehicle breathalyzer company leaves drivers stranded across the US 1 week ago:
I agree with you in principle but you could just have the person show up once a week for tamper checking. Those interlock devices are punishment for DUI/DWI so making the user show up once a week wouldn’t be too harsh, imo.
