If the tech works as it should, that’s what I care about the most.

This is a very clever catch and very true. I didn’t think of this.

It would be par for the course if they just ignored the settings changes when it comes to training their AI on your data, and you’re just turning off your access to the AI features instead.

Thanks for making it easy, friend. It takes a lot of clicking to turn this stuff off lol.

Why the fuck would a McDonald’s app care?

Apparently 96% of elementary school children now have laptops they take home from school? I’m glad I grew up in an era when we all had our own computers not owned by the government. 😂 It seems like absolute hell to be a kid these days. Constantly monitored and tracked by adults who want you to remain pure and innocent forever, not allowed to grow or explore anything on your own. And they wonder why kids aren’t independent and don’t want to learn anything.

I don’t use Spotify, and I don’t have any friends who do either.

This is what they are looking for. They want to squeeze people so that they will snap. They will use any ensuing violence as an excuse to remove more of our freedoms.

I’ve been using Linux exclusively for more than ten years. You’ve made the right choice. As if you needed anyone to tell you 😆

“This will surely fuck me over in some way I can’t predict.”

They always seem to be testing the waters. Razvedka boyem is standard operating practice for Trump and his ilk.

Therapists notes are stored on computers too, you know…

Not to mention the fact that you could get a mandatory visit to a padded room if you tell them the wrong thing, sometimes at your own expense.

Can’t wait to hear about the black market for rainbow gun owners to buy guns. Would probably be more quality and trustworthy than usual.

It would be nice to have my own privately hosted therapist trained on all the mental health knowledge known to mankind.

💯 It’s my experience that humans just don’t want to hear it or deal with it. And for people who don’t trust the mental health industry (many for good reason incl. prior abuse), it’s the only option left other than reading self-help books, websites, etc.

The people in favor of this law would probably try to file it under the mental illness category instead of using the simple fact that they’re transgender.

Good. Those things are such a waste of resources and leave behind too much trash.

This shit happens to me all the time. Sometimes in inappropriate situations, and people think I’m laughing my ass off at them.
