Seriously. This thought occurred to me the other day when I plugged my power bank into a car’s charging port to check the wattage and wondered “why the fuck can’t my phone just do this by default?” Do we actually not trust people to understand higher number = faster?

Seriously fucking sick of hearing stats about numbers of jobs that completely disregard their quality.

Made me check for my home state of Utah. But looks like they require a “substantial portion” or 1/3 of content on a site to be porn. source Looks like we all need to get busy posting tits to twitter for the good of the children.

Anyone noticed a pricing difference with “local” grocers? Obviously there aren’t many left and at least in my area they rely on a regional distributor that’s pretty consolidated. Just curious if they’ve been treating consumers any better.

Apparently I’m dyslexic enough that I read this twice thinking “what’s the joke?”

As a mormon raised cisgender I used this meme to shutdown a family conversation.

I do not fear becoming homeless. The state should fear my homelessness as it will only signify the next phase of my radicalization.

Expanding on why humans don’t do this (as often) the fleshy part of our ears is functional. Depending on how sound bounces in your brain can determine some additional features that it couldn’t just from two ears. If I recall correctly variation in ear shape between people also creates difficulty in creating identical universal 360 sound. Can’t help but find it fascinating we’ve had ray traced games for a bit now but sound is mostly still just faked and not simulated.

On top of the surge pricing the bastards have been spamming me with emails. Damned if I can remember when I used my email with them, but their opt out mechanism has me pissed. Have to type in my email after hitting the link, then clearly remain on the list. Sure, FTC rules say you get 30 days or something before I need to stop receiving emails, but virtually every other marketer seems to take me off immediately.

Looked it up and you appear to be seriously wrong. Source or GTFO

I recently was looking for apartments and got a lease which included a clause to pass property taxes onto tenants, including any new taxes introduced while you were a resident. The additional expense was counted as rent for non-payment purposes. Another clause placed a lien on the contents of your unit upon nonpayment. Absolutely insane slumlord shit in some nice new apartments. The landlords must be stopped.

NOT YET YOU EURO BASTARD!

Deplatformed from which platform? When your fanatics are deranged enough to follow you anywhere… They’ll be chomping at the bit to hear what he said in his most recent call from prison.

How the hell do you think you put it on though?

Edit: nvm. Semi-hidden buttons at the top of the chest.

Went down a research rabbit hole wondering about doing security research on these encrypted radios. Looks like you’d have a pretty hard time finding a legal way to do it considering it’s illegal to transmit encrypted per FCC rules. So though you can get the hardware on eBay for 100 bucks, even beginning to test for flaws is already a gray area. Probably have to rig something up to avoid transmitting at all. Plus a faraday cage? Modern solutions use AES256, so a major flaw in crypto implementation on top of a failure to rotate keys is the only likely avenue. Even if you found a vulnerability, reporting seems like it would be highly risky with the legal murkyness and arrest happy authorities.

Bit of a tangent but: How dangerous is ripping and distributing web content these days? Like how prevalent is watermarking or other methods that could identify the account the recording originated from?
