bobs_monkey,

make it easier to involuntarily commit people

Yeah, that won’t ever be abused by malicious actors.

It really is easier to just regulate firearms (not take them away, mind you, just actually regulate and enforce said regulations), but politicians are too worried about pissing off the “but muh freedums” crowd.

bobs_monkey,

I don’t need a weed smoking patio, that’s what the living room couch is for (no I don’t have kids)

Capitalists when an average Joe does it: wait, not like that

To those of you with nothing to hide: One day you might have. Because you don’t make the rules. (mullvad.net)

The most common argument used in defense of mass surveillance is ‘If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear’. Try saying that to women in the US states where abortion has suddenly become illegal. Say it to investigative journalists in authoritarian countries. Saying ‘I have nothing to hide’ means you stop...

bobs_monkey,

Problem is that people are essentially brainwashed to cheer in favor of oppressive policy. It should be a crime to make misleading claims or statements, but, such is the world of advertising and marketing.

bobs_monkey,

Lol the fact that you think someone presenting a different opinion means they represent anyone is silly, stop perpetuating the politics = sports teams mentality

bobs_monkey,

Because if we help them pay off those predatory loans, they’re less desperate and less likely to accept a bullshit job to avoid starvation and homelessness. Can’t have people having options, like those afforded to educated folks.

bobs_monkey,

This calculator is flawed. The allowable range of fart duration is 1-5 seconds, and I’ve definitely exceeded that on more than one occasion.

bobs_monkey,

It’s more profitable to be LGBT+ friendly. Doesn’t mean they agree with it.

Am millennial, have never heard ratio’d before

Campaigns Can Now See What You Watch on TV. (www.notus.org)

Televisions that can stream platforms like Hulu or Max usually come loaded with technology that collects information on what viewers are watching, and buyers consent to have their viewing tracked when they open their new TV and click through terms of service agreements. Sometimes, data firms can connect those viewing habits to a...

bobs_monkey,

It’s becoming harder to find TVs that will operate without a network connection

bobs_monkey,

Yeah, I’ve seen it on some Samsungs and LGs that get real pissy when the TV itself isn’t online. I’ve also heard of some brands (that I don’t remember atm) that won’t even let you go through the initial setup without a connection.

bobs_monkey,

Won’t do anything until it is hooked back to the internet

bobs_monkey,

What gets me is that healthy people = healthy and productive workers. I’m starting to think the ownership class isn’t as smart as they think they are.

I’ll NEVER give up.

I’LL NEVER SURRENDER! …

Oh fuck no he did not just commandeer Galaxy Quest. It’s on like Donkey Kong, motherfucker.

bobs_monkey,

Lol good call

bobs_monkey,

Or just a lanyard to keep track of your keys.

Bonus points when it gets tangled around your shifter and prevents a good shift on the highway!

bobs_monkey,

Nah fair enough. I used to like those long lanyards when I was younger because it made finding my keys easier (because why have a dedicated spot to hang them when you get home lol). Now with push to start and a coded deadbolt on my front door, my keys never leave my pocket except at the post office.

bobs_monkey,

Nah, they’ll find a way to skew that too, like Photoshopping in a poison bottle or saying look what he’s wasting time on or some shit. The propaganda machine never stops with these clowns.

bobs_monkey,

Good call, and you know that tree is a plastic piece of junk

bobs_monkey,

Personally I was looking for decomposed granite

bobs_monkey,

As far as I understand, RF is RF. All the truck device needs to do is operate on the same RF frequencies as the tower with the correct data form and handshakes (which I’m sure the cell companies happily provide), and boom, you’re connected.

Phones naturally connect to the strongest signal, which will be these things as long as its signal is stronger than the tower, and then the transceiver on the truck connects to the cell tower and is configured to MITM snoop as traffic is passed through the truck device on to the tower and vice versa.

bobs_monkey,

I think the whole point is location tracking and identification. You figure if they want to go after a group of protestors, all they do is set up their tig near them and they’ll instantly have every device in the immediate area that they can chase down. And let’s be real here, they don’t give two fucks about legality anymore, they’re in full suppression mode. All the more reason to never bring a phone to a protest in the US.

bobs_monkey, (edited )

The medicine itself deactivates the uterine sensitization-associated gene-1 (USAG-1) protein, which suppresses tooth growth. As we reported in 2023, blocking USAG-1’s interaction with other proteins encourages bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling, which triggers new bone to generate. In the ferret study, the drug resulted in the growth of a new tooth (fourth from left), and it also strengthened bone in the existing set. It resulted in new teeth emerging in the mouths of mice and ferrets, species that share close to the same USAG-1 properties as humans.

Am I missing something? It seems like it prompts the body to actually grow new teeth, though I’ll admit I am way out of my wheelhouse here.

bobs_monkey,

And they’ll get right in finding the gum-sticker right after lunch, next week sometime.

I would honestly love to live that less than urgent lifestyle. The Greeks have it down as well.

How easy is it to switch back to windows?

I’m considering switching to linux but I’m not a computer savvy person, so I wanted to have the option to switch back to windows if unforeseen complications (I only have 1 pc). Is it just a download on usb and install? And what ways can I get the product key or “cleaner” debloated versions.

bobs_monkey,

Or, punch this into powershell:

bobs_monkey,

Bingo. I haven’t had a windows install mess up my bootloader in a while, granted I haven’t booted my windows partition in a while either. As long as you create a separate partition for the bootloader, it’s stupid easy to fix with a liveusb.

bobs_monkey,

Iirc, Microsoft themselves were advocating the method I mentioned when users were having issues (I can’t recall where I read that though)

bobs_monkey,

Oh they understand the secularity of government just fine, and that’s the paramount problem with this country to them. In their view, we should all be bound by biblical law, and anyone who strays from those views should be eliminated.

bobs_monkey,

Credulous dipshits is an understatement. They were going to cry foul no matter what, it was already predetermined for them. Same with the 2020 election, and same with the election in November. Fascists gonna fascist.

bobs_monkey,

Well, when you put all of your personality eggs into one basket, and that basket turns out to be a basket-case, people get weird. Almost like linking your identity to a narcissistic douchbag probably wasn’t the best idea.

bobs_monkey,

Bold of you to assume that they care what the plebs people think

bobs_monkey,

And Ubiquiti’s support is non-existent. Don’t get me wrong, I like their hardware, and their software works just fine for my needs, especially at their price point. But if you have issues, you’re searching forums or are SOL.

Ruckus gear is pretty good too, though I don’t have much hands-on experience with it. And it’s expensive. Like really expensive.

bobs_monkey,

They’ll RMA just fine, but I was speaking more to software support.

bobs_monkey,

That website is like wandering around Spencer’s Gifts circa 2001
