To train Google/Cloudflare’s AI tools, and to double check against DDOS. That’s it.

Bull-fuckin’-shit.

Hey I’m voting for Harris, I just think its important to call out bad takes from anyone, including those who I vote for. I do it for my local and my federal offices. I email my republican congress members (they don’t respond beyond the default robot reply) and I complain to my democratic senators.

Yep. It’s like how you say “I’m voting for Harris but I don’t like her track record of issues important to me, but she’s not Trump and that’s what matters.” and people instantly harass you into being okay with fracking and murder.

You taking a photo of yourself probably isn’t used to peddle scams, plastic, and junk food as autruistic feel-good stories.

You also probably don’t plaster your face across every thing you post online.

You also probably have fun. Mr. Beast doesn’t do any of these.

The two short stories that have really stuck with me are the Ray Bradbury one about the automated home and the Edgar Alan Poe one about the beating heart

“The Veldt” and “The Tell-Tale Heart”? Those two stick with me due to two good readings of it.

The Veldt read by Leonard Nimoy and Tell-Tale Heart acted out by Vincent Price Part 1 and Part 2.

+100 points each for hitting them, Deathrace 2000 style.

Yes.

Depends if the lobbyists want it legal.

Meanwhile I can just use the same shortcuts every other program made in the last 40 years uses. Ctrl+Q to quit, Ctrl+S to save, Ctrl+Z for undo. If I wanted to consult a cheatsheet to relearn keyboard shortcuts, I’ll use vim and emacs.

Nano isn’t even that simple. Ctrl+X to quit? I guess if you use phonetic sounds to figure out how to exit a program. At least Vim uses the idea of “use what the words start with.”

I personally use micro in the terminal, and Kate if I want a GUI to write. Vim and Emacs are fine for those who want it, I have no stakes in the editor wars beyond “I just want my program to do what I want, and I want it to be simple to learn.”

And now we’re voting between “Literal fascist who hired cops to harm minorities” and “literal cop who harmed minorities”. And before that was “Literal fascist who hired cops to harm minorities” and “Wrote the bills to enable cops to harm minorities and protected rape victims.”

Governments don’t protect you, me, or anyone, they never give you the freedoms, only take them. Keep your wits, stay safe, and drink water.

Enforcement of your own rights is protected by yourself. The government doesn’t enforce the right to free speech, it can’t force you to say something. The government doesn’t enforce the right to a warrant, the government is the one who makes cops enter your place without one.

The government also doesn’t enforce gun ownership to anyone but the military and the militarized police. There is no “Government supplied and required to own and use firearm”.

Governments rarely give you freedoms you never had before they came into power, they just remove the limits they enforced onto us. And they never do it willingly.

A rare Aging Wheels enjoyer in the wild! That dude has single-handedly gotten me more interested in automobile history and just how cars do things in general.

Oligarchs are only for the rich outside of the Thirteen Eyes. American oligarchs are called lobbyists and job creators.

I personally have a Yubikey and OTP for mine. Maybe they don’t for your country?

That said, fuck PayPal.

Women are being tied to the same system as you are and not the same system as you want.

Women are the same for other things and I can do 🚯 for the better of them and the other thing and I can’t get to a good and not not not not not not not…

Women are not a grift for being on an esoteric route.

Nothing says “we’re protecting children” like regulating what adult women can do with their bodies.

Conservatives are morons, every time.

Thank you very much!
