I wonder how long it'll be before people start getting hit with dmcas for taking pictures of it and showing it off to people

One minute it's 7: 59 AM and then the next minute BAM

It's almost like the legislators are more concerned with swinging their dicks around than with actual safety and best practices.

I'm willing to bet you're still ending up in their database. Unless you are using some sort of VPN to first obfuscate your location and then a brand new account that has not been used before, then there's going to be some record of similarity.

When I'm installing Windows 10 or 11, I use the Rufus installer to create a pre-built admin account that I can sign in with.

Oh yeah?

Open edge and search for something. Check in the top right corner and tell me you're not signed into some sort of pseudo-created Microsoft account.

Not to mention that Microsoft forces you to use a Microsoft account when you create your account on your home computer which is then automatically logged in to edge and *bing so that they can track and quantize more of every single thing you do on the internet to monetize you

I think it's the second one, because every time I've heard the objection about the Sun not working at night it has always been in the form of a gotcha and not in the form of a question like, how do we deal with this issue?

And it mitigates the current red herring of the anti-solar groups complaining that solar "generates too much electricity during the day, and not enough at night".

With an effective and balanced grid storage system across the country, we can recharge the batteries during the day and then use the power at night.

My mom was still paying for dial-up AOL in 2016. She had been paying them $20 a month for over a decade while having high-speed internet that she was also paying for.

When I asked her why she didn't cancel it, she said she would lose her email.

So I canceled it because AOL provides free email because they make money off of the ads.

Reddit sold whatever soul it may have had to the devil, as does every company that goes public.

It's literally taking our words and our conversations and using them to train an inhuman computer system to sound more human.

And we are not allowed to say no.

It doesn't get more devilish than that on the internet.

And of course, I deleted my account when this whole debacle happened, but I'm sure they're still taking all of my old comments and selling them to any person with a dollar.

They've made it incredibly clear that anything you post on their platform is theirs, and if they do something you don't like you can go fuck yourself.

Fuck Reddit.

You can also find a cheap laptop with like a 7th gen Intel or newer processor and use that with a wireless keyboard and mouse and an HDMI cable.

Bang for your buck it'll be the best deal for you
