That was interesting.
Is there an add-on that changes the header information from an HTTP request to show bogus but common identifying information?
That is crowdsource the most common configurations and set that as the default in the add-on, so now you look like just another face in the crowd.
I also choose this man’s dead wife.
from the site: “Discover a world of immersive and customizable soundscapes that can enhance focus, relaxation, and sleep. Choose from noise generators, nature sounds and ambient music to create your perfect audio environment.”
This is what fucked Bernie Madoff.
If this person had gone to VC’s with a pitch for ‘AI listening model’ with the explanation that “Now musicians can up load their songs to streaming services and AI will listen to make sure their pitch and tonality is accurate and that the beat is correct.” or some bullshit like that. Then it would have been ‘legal’
I do similar things when a task has two physically separate locations like taking out the trash.
While walking out with the trash I will repeat constantly “put in new bag” all the way to the garbage and all the way back, otherwise the task doesn’t get completed.
True. But the people advocating for these laws don’t want to deal with nuance and compromise on what it would take to have a society where you educate people on sex in a healthy and positive way. These prohibitionists see the world as either bad or good - nothing in between. Good (how ever they decide to define it) must win no compromises, and the weapon that they use is unfounded fear of the bad and it works.
And the reason fear works is because it is easy and visceral and reality’s complexity doesn’t work for media’s need for sound bites.
At least nothing like this happens in the airline industry
But one thing that I have noticed is that the people that are mocked for their hobbies are also the one’s that are the most accepting of others.
My guess is they know the pain of being the butt of other people’s jokes and empathize with others more.
but now we have a scapegoat

But I still don’t understand it

If I’m having a conversation with someone and they start looking at their phone while I’m talking, I just stop talking and stare at them. More than a few times I’ve been told “keep going I’m listening” I don’t, I just let them finish and only start talking again when the set the phone down.
It’s very passive aggressive but it does make the other person feel a bit uncomfortable.
yes I’ve lost hours on that game
If I did my napkin math right (which is suspect) from January 2020 to December 2023 the Dow Jones had an ~33% increase.
Who will they elect next? Trump is not the end point on that particular axis.
But Trump is really the glue that holds many of these people together. I don’t follow conservative politics too closely but I don’t see someone else that has his ability to hold the ultra-right together as he has done. Not saying there aren’t a large pool of con artists that are fighting to take his place when he is gone. I think there are quite a few people that want that power and I think that is going to breed a shit show for the far right (lots of infighting).
Of course if he gets re-elected and has a favorable Congress then well established laws and political norms can and will be changed to allow for something of a monarchy which takes the above off the table. That is his family becomes the de-facto ruling family.
But if he doesn’t get re-elected or has a Congress that will fight and make his tenure difficult, and when he dies I think the far-right is going to fracture with 3 or 4 new crazy people trying to take over what Trump has held together.
Its crazy to me as to how many people will use a “comedian” as one of their sources for healthcare information.
I mean if I wanted advice on how to be a shitty comedian then I would ask Maher for advice because he is a pro at that. But I ain’t taking his advice or even his opinion for my healthcare.
As others have said this purchase didn’t really fuck up his overall lifestyle.
Yet when the topic of raising taxes on these people comes up they all freak out, like if they have to pay an extra 20% on their wealth they will be living on the streets.
This is an argument that is used all the time in politics and business when a (partial) solution to a big problem is presented.
“Well there may be unintended consequences to this solution so we can’t do anything until every single potential problem that may arise sometime in the future is completely worked through and solved.”
I mean if you are going into space then that is probably the way to do things but trying to solve childhood hunger? Yea you got time to fix the problems as they arise.
Fuck you Larry.
