Exactly. Have that as an emergency option or a free substitute to streaming music and news. The more options there are, the better. Surely, this is not relevant for the US, where radio kinda sucks nowadays, and Billboard Top 100 are put on repeat, but in European countries, Middle East, Asia etc. this kind of thing is invaluable.
Yeah, I think that my interpretation was an oversimplification and things are pretty nuanced. I gotta learn more about this stuff if I want to achieve the things I dream of. Thanks for the insight!
There is absolutely a subconscious super-brain within our minds that we can sometimes observe and even control to an extent. It can calculate things a lot faster that we consciously do. It’s how we dream of elaborate things, it’s how we can approximate distances, it’s how our intuition works. It can be turned into your personal assistant with enough training and awareness. I believe you can become a genius if you train this part of the mind to interact with your conscious.
Took me a second.
The Russian misinfo version: ℤ
NSFL is just another name for gore or footage of death or injury. “Not safe for life” is not a thing. There’s no actual image that can kill you unless you have epilepsy or some other form of photosensitivity. I heard “Not safe for looking” but that’s an idiotic acronym, and most people don’t interpret NSFL that way at first, and it still has the connotation that it can physically harm you for some reason.
The AI image has such a cool fur pattern tbh.
I already know Russsian so that’s not a problem for me lol
It’s really neat IMO. It should’ve been there earlier
Now, you can’t perma-crack your new PC with a “real” HWID key, then years later reinstall Windows and keep your “real” license anymore! And you can’t upgrade anymore on that new PC either! You have to patch Windows every time!
If 4chan made Trump win in 2016, Twitter might make Trump win in 2024. Which is a scary thought. Just imagine the level of control one rich man can have over the information highway, Twitter, one of the biggest social media sites in the world, used still by many politicians, journalists and reporters on both sides. It’s happening.

For those who are paranoid about this - some of you have a Facebook account, and half of you have a Google-filled smartphone. Privacy is important, but IMO there should be a balance between convenience and privacy - unless you actually do stuff that requires the utmost privacy or you need to stay fully anonymous everywhere as much as possible.
Division of identity - that is, having unique profiles/identities for different types of things you do on the web, using alias emails and anonymous email for certain things etc. - is a more viable strategy than trying to be 100% anonymous on the web.
Commercial social media that is free does and will track your activity on the site, whether for personalized ads or for algorithm purposes. Lemmy and Mastodon don’t because they’re FOSS, and don’t run on ads (99.9% of the time).
Many stores where I live don’t offer a scanner gun to customers, only like a small amount of big stores offer it. In self-checkout, we have to move the barcodes over a scanner to get them scanned.
Exactly. Generally, I have fun when talking to people, but social anxiety makes me prefer to stay at home and talk to less people.
It’s annoying how a lot of stores ask you to join their club and get their credit card (as If I don’t have enough already), before letting you into self-checkout.

The symbol in the middle was a blindspot? The only thing remotely resembling a flag was on the sides, and even then it surely didn’t look like the 6-color Rainbow Flag.
