This is… completely normal amount of accounts? I am at 1083 saved in my password manager. Admittedly it’s a bit inflated with things like crypto wallets and few dozen passwords for 192.168.1.1 for every router I ever saw. But then, I also been on account deletion spree for a year now and been avoiding making new accounts if at all possible, otherwise I’d easily be over 1500

What’s wrong with #8? Looks like a normal trader setup to me.
My setup is off the charts, tho, as usual.

If watching Ukraine war footage has taught me anything, it’s:
- Bring grenades, the more the better
- Anything worth blowing up, is worth blowing up at least 8 times.
- Everything is worth blowing up
- Finish them off by chucking an AT mine at them

Eh, the privacy trend was also s bandwagon. They removed a ton of power user features and touting privacy with things like enchanced tracker protection which could’ve as well be done with an addon. And they integrated pocket in at around the same time.

I honestly hope that it’s just something she made up to get rid of me after she lost interest for some reason. Maybe she fell for someone else, maybe I offended her in some way, or maybe she was actually telling the truth. Unfortunately, that I’ll never get to know.

Well, as a medical student she was quite busy, especially given that she was also working part-time to support herself coming from a different city with barely any support from her parents. So, getting an appointment with her at said work was a rare opportunity to get a little bit extra time together. Her job was as a laser hair removal specialist, and there are only so many places you can get your hair removed from. And I guess she wasn’t very used to working with dudes because it didn’t end up well down there. I got burn marks and had terrible rash for a whole month afterwards. Not sure which one of us was evil, though, but I lashed out and broke up with her when on the only aligning day off for both of us for months to come, she decided to go to a place I told her I wanted to take her to, and do the things I told her I’d like to do together… alone, because, apparently, the stars told her to do so. Usually girls being into astrology that much is a huge deal-breaker for me, but I admit I got so blinded by her beauty and gentle voice that I totally didn’t even register that she was.
inb4: No, it wasn’t creepy, we’ve had a relationship for a few months at that point and it was her idea. And yeah, we didn’t actually have to perform the procedures, but I guess neither of us was bright enough to propose that we don’t 😂

Yet another reminder that all the mentions of Dunning-Kruger are a better display of it’s perceived effect than the original study ever was. In the original study, people correctly predicted their performance relative to others, but the discrepancy was in the scale of that difference, which can be attributed to numerous factors. Dumb people just took it as “stupid people think they’re smart” and run around saying “Dunning-Kruger” to sound smarter… oh the irony.
And yes, given two mentions in the above text, this is, indeed, a suicide by words.

The classic card payment and subscription model is actually insane. You literally have to beg companies to stop taking money from you. Good thing it is changing with more modern payment systems - you literally just stop paying for services you don’t need and it’s on them to stop providing them to you. Nothing is ever charged off my account without an explicit action from me.

No, not really, kind of. VPN protocols are cut regardless if it’s domestic or not. You can still use something like tunneling or proxies, but at this point you’d be better off just connecting to a box abroad directly.
- Comment on Russia targets WhatsApp and pushes new 'super-app' as internet blackouts grow 4 months ago:
It is indeed total ass. Reporting from the ground here, mobile internet is effectively dead - cloudflare is banned and most vpn protocols are cut after 20kb. There are still ways, like ssh forwarding, amnezia and zapret, but the trend is towards blocking all encrypted traffic going abroad. Complete outages are also common as well.
Wired is a bit better, I see disruptions frequently between my ru and non-ru nodes, but it’s usually between two hosts and relayable, no complete ban like on mobile.
Max is on track of becoming mandatory. It already is for school students and their parents. Gosuslugi (gov services) already show an option to use it for auth, there are alrwady deeper integrations on the way that would make it a requirement.
It is pretty openly spied upon. I’m not touching that shit with a six foot pole, but there were already arrests over things said in voice-calls and I’ve even heard reports of FSB agents interjecting right in the middle of the call, saying they’re being too annoying and cutting it off.

Doesn’t work, though. Every other business in Russia is still asking for WA for contact. I’ve been using extremist excuse for the past year for why Im not in it, because I can’t be too arsed to explain that I’m not using agressively proprietary phone-only garbage from privacy violating corporation. They’re still asking, even after the recent ban. Honestly, I should just straight up report them to the police at this point.

But dont try to use it in Russia (or Iran, or anywhere with authoritarian government). That’s how you put a target on your head.
I’d suggest matrix but it kind of sucks as well.
Any other options?

I just find the concept hilarious. Borrow some expensive… sex… to then immediately sell it… then regularly pay lender with small amount of sex as a fee for the sex loan… then when the time is right buy some cheap sex, return sex to lender… and that’s how one gets sex when sex is in decline.

Think I’m way pass that point… My current itch scratchers of choice are Maddie Ashman for microtonal, Means End/Chromaform for harmonic, and Car Bomb for rhythmic crazyness. Surprisingly, I haven’t ever given “Behold…the Arctopus!” a serious listen, even though I’ve seen that meme video a long time ago… guess I wasn’t ready for it yet. Thanks for the reminder, will def check them out!

Not sure I get your point. I wasn’t implying that all the Russian cosmonauts are dumb fucks, just that the only cases I’m familiar with all being Russians.

Didn’t notice it was a woman at first, but isn’t it an appeal to authority? The fact that someone is an astronaut doesn’t mean they can’t also be a dumb fuck. Just look at Russians - Oleg Artemyev, Tereshkova, Rogozin. I’m not familiar with NASA astronauts but surely some of them were also complete idiots as well?
