I was watching "Born in East LA" for the upteenth time and there were comments from 3 or 4 years ago defending the (actor) cop's deporting an American (Cheech). This is not a new thing, this is them carrying on doing what they've wanted to do.

They're so busy asking if they could they didn't ask if they should.

Same with the guys who made the AR glasses that use face recognition to automatically dox people.

Elsewhere in the thread they explain because decryption takes time, they don't cycle it every time you lock your phone by default. Not sure if there's more to it.

The worst part is if I'm using a work computer or something, I can't just type into notepad anymore without considering that a record is being made.

Is there a Windows+R "oldnotepad.exe" that just works pre-installed?

Lol this resonates with me as a disorganized person

The Linux Kernel has a specific one, whereby DRM doesn't mean Digital Rights Protection, only thing I could think of.

That Reddit thread is a very strange experience for someone not of their culture

If you changed it that makes it OC sorta. At the bare minimum it's not a repost.

It's not a film or TV show, but Cory Doctorow 's Little Brother series has this.

I am not sure, since my public university did not require freshmen to live on campus.

The freshmen who did live on campus though had the most limited choice of residence halls and parking lots to choose from, however, because of limited space and wanting to give seniority to the students that stuck with it.

Nothing really that I can remember from my parents. I don't think they were that comfortable with it. But my school had pretty comprehensive health education, including sex Ed. Once in 5th grade, once in middle school (I think I took it in the summer so I could take more electives during the year) and once again in high school, iirc. My college also had pretty fantastic PSAs everywhere.

I remember starting very very early elementary school, like 3rd, 4th grade, kids would ask each other if they knew what sex was, or what 69 meant, or how babies were made, when teachers couldn't hear, but I have the impression that while some kids knew more than others, no one really knew what they were talking about.
