She really was.

And yeah, I'll never understand how the overlap of tradwives and rruining one's face works. Logic is the only way to not understand it.

Worth noting that this is basically only able to tell if a human is in your house by absorbing WiFi.

This also only seems to work on a big company's equipment. Verizon equipment in your house can do this. Buy your own equipment and this isn't a problem.

Tambourine only demands a good rhythm.

A very basic "Learn Harmonica" book can get you far enough to improv in the middle of a band and not sound like trash.

... How they paid to look.

Noem paid someone maybe even hundreds of dollars - and took time off work - to look like that.

To quote liberal Amber Ruffin when shown a picture of Kristi Noem circa 2012ish on an episode of Have I Got News For You: "oh my god, she's actually beautiful."

Look, body dismorphia is a thing. Women in public are critizised for aging normally. No getting around that, but that doesn't mean we can just ignore the fact that when ignoring the option of therapy, she asked for "Sad 90's Pornstar Face #44283" at the bargain basement plastic surgeon as a way to win favor in with the GOP.

Because it's also not a great idea to expose your rules files, and tell people first "oh shit, we mentioned rules files. Please don't look!" before

I'll be honest here, I've had less dogmatic conversations with conspiracy theorists about COVID. If you just need to make this a huge problem that later turns out to be a nothingburger and you'll never look back and grow as a human, then hey, you do you. But know that you'll look like a fool to anyone that isn't a goldfish and remembers more than 3 months at a time. Because you clearly don't know what's a big deal and what's not, and this is a Grade A waste of all our time to pitch a fit about.

Because 1 coder used Cursor and a bunch of people on Mastadon immediately went to grab the pitchforks because reasons?

How much you want to bet not a single person having a huff about this pays a cent to Proton for anything, and likely doesn't even use them?

Also crazy is that the thing that brought down the Old Kingdom around 2180 BCE, after nearly a millennia in power, was a megadrought thanks to a climatic change. It took them about 140 years to reboot things into the Middle Kingdom.

A lack of knowing context or considering consequences? Sounds inspirational to me!

I suggest starting with Ground.News and looking at their chart for who is covering a story on the right, and then going with that as a starting point.

Does anyone here realize that one person using Cursor doesnt mean "tHeY'rE vIbE cOdInG aCrOsS tHe wHoLe pLaCe!"

Well, I can't be mad about that.

 

Y'all, the UK's law about needing an ID to be on any social media platform over 10,000 users is the canary in the coal mine. Similar laws have already been proposed by US states and other countries. On a long enough timeline, this is coming for us all.

So, with that in mind, I want to get in early with some good old fashioned forum sites. You know, the kind that have no app and don't need my Fing ID to let me sign up.

Any topic welcome as long as the community is active and strong.

 

You can cut your wild-ass eyebrows!

I love Charger8232's idea of a Privacy Flag. However, I don't love the design they proposed. In their post, I explain my disagreements.

As a form of vexillographical discussion, I would like to propose another design as the flag under which we anonymously toil in secret (I wish).

First off, nods to Charger8232's design - 1400x900 dimensions, and use of EU's Dark Power Blue (#003399) color. Love it.

Where we differ:

Designs

A shield, representing how we must actively guard our privacy. A lock, obviously, to show we want security with our privacy, and a dove showing that we just want to be left the F alone and peacefully not be subject to a mass surveillance state. We're not trying to be sketchy or do illegal stuff, we just want to be peacefully left the F alone.

Colors

Again, same use of Dark Power Blue, representing freedom and a nod to the GDPR. White representing peace. Black representing how I don't want people to see me. Color of field: Redacted.

Extras

Stripes to make it a bit more visually interesting. A lack of EXIF and meta data as the subtle fait accompli.

The color scheme is similar to that of Estonia. While Estonia is a leader in the EU's digital governance space, this is unintentional. As much as I liked Espresso Macchiato in EuroVision this year, there's no direct nod to Estonia.

I didn't want to just say "uh, I don't like it" and complain without doing something. So here you go.
