I deleted my Google account…

… And damm it feels good! Before starting this step, I had to migrate to a better browser that respects privacy (Brave, because🖕Firefox, I mean Mozilla at this point doesn’t even want you to be safe on the web anymore!) And a better “Google-style” ecosystem (Proton is the best they have an email service, a calendar, a...

Tangent5280,

Whats wrong with firefox? Why do you feel they dont want you to be safe on the web anymore?

Tangent5280,

Hold on, what is this talking about? Do baby bones literally get removed or something? I don’t get it

Tangent5280,

Any non paywalled source?

Tangent5280,

This happened between 1970 and 1991. If I’m not mistaken, those were the years of the AIDS scare, right? How did this go under the radar in times of such paranoia?

Tangent5280,

Buddist monk level zen right there. Hopefully the client hooks him up with a couple boxes of the end product?

Is it impossible to be private online? (yewtu.be)

In sharing this video here I’m preaching to the choir, but I do think it indirectly raised a valuable point which probably doesn’t get spoken about enough in privacy communities. That is, in choosing to use even a single product or service that is more privacy-respecting than the equivalent big tech alternative, you are...

Tangent5280,

Also remember there are many many people like you poking out eyes by themselves, day in and day out.

You’re not alone, and you only need to hold the line till we can bring in legislative measures to hold it for you.

Tangent5280,

It’s the difference between “Suffer little children” and “Suffer, little children”.

Tangent5280,

Damn, so genuinely good people caught in the crossfire. I don’t like how so many commenters are shitting all over them here.

Tangent5280,

I guess maybe they were there more for the humanitarian rather than the religious?

Tangent5280,

shill harder somewhere else

Tangent5280,

correct, but brave is not only shittier, but it is also an active saboteur to the cause.

Tangent5280,

Well said.

For me, it’s “Being a Foodie”. Everybody who has ever lived on the planet has been enthusiastic for food.

I’ve only ever met one foodie I respected as such. He ate everything, even stuff that made him gag, because of reasons only he knows. He wanted the experience or something.

Man could eat a burger and tell you where the wheat was from, how ripe the tomatoes in the ketchup where, the dashed hopes and dreams of the cow, everything. He could look at ingredients from afar or smell things that have no smell to me and tell in how many days it would be perfectly ripe. He ate mono flavored stuff (Like rice with nothing else added or olive oil), used salt like a vampire hunter to detect faint tastes, and I still think he must have some undiagnosed lifestyle thing like Synesthesia, except for taste. He reverse engineered recipes for fun.

It was magic, and until this dude I didn’t consider food to be an actual hobby. Every other foodie I’ve met just liked eating tasty food, which pretty much everyone does.

Tangent5280,

You’re either a skating instructor, or an infantry patrolman in the Taliban.

Tangent5280,

Where did you get your wizard robe

Tangent5280,

Oof, hope you’re better now.

Tangent5280,

Or smack a sack of rice (non-sexually)

Eternal vigilance is our only defence against nap-naps

Tangent5280,

Man knows nothing damn

Tangent5280,

Mom’s spaghetti

Tangent5280,

I honestly don’t think we’ll age that much at all. With the heat stress from warming climates, bodies riddled with microplastics and so on, we will likely have a short, albeit painful, existence.

Tangent5280,

Sends original data vs making a copy of data and sending it.

In meme context you’d be just making a copy of your consciousness and putting it in a machine. Whatever reason you’re doing it for - escape illness, survive armageddon, nothing changes for you. A copy of you lives on though.

Australian police arrest 7 alleged teen extremists linked to stabbing of a bishop in a Sydney church (apnews.com)

Australian police arrested seven teenagers accused of following a violent extremist ideology in raids across Sydney on Wednesday, as a judge extended a ban on social media platform X sharing video of a knife attack on a bishop that started the criminal investigation....

Tangent5280,

“accused of”? What does this mean? Just legalese of innocent until tried and found guilty? Is this just safespeak from the newspaper to avoid getting sued?

In Buddhist view: If all misfortune/suffering is deserved due to bad karma of past actions in a prior life, why advocate ahimsa/nonviolence?

A Buddhist was saying to me that anything bad that happens to someone is deserved because they must have had bad karma as a result of having done something bad, either in this life or a previous incarnation. I don’t believe in any of this personally, but I think it would be helpful to understand the idea of karma a bit better,...

With legs as hairy as mine I am a card holding member of the pollinators party.

Tangent5280,

I am feeling confused with this meme. I am going to escalate this to my manager, secretly hopong he’ll tell me to do something else while he passes this on to the one dude in my team who’s worked with multithreading that one time.
