Yeah, Ken Burns baseball totally needs to be questioned…

I’m more concerned about this loser parent going around stalking 16 year olds being 16 year olds.

This whole story certainly inspires one to despise technology, however.

So, this guys’ whole thing is basically, “GRRR, I’M ANGRY. FUCKOFF AND GIVE ME 6 YEARS”.

Man, you sure showed that judge and everyone else by being locked up for 6 years now.

The fact that some people are ok with, “subscriptions taking off” in this very post is troubling.

The future, where you own nothing, pay a subscription for everything.

I posted on Lemmy about needing recommendations for movies to watch on shrooms…and then minutes later stumble across this article.

Talk about perfect timing, lol.

This is really starting to feel like a perfect replacement for that…other website.

It is very nice to see Mozilla doing quite useful/helpful projects from time to time.

Lol. They are a shit company. (Microsoft & Malwarebytes)

The future:

“Malwarebytes has flagged your entire operating system as potential malware”

Lol… :/

You’re the type that gets excited every time postage stamp prices increase.

Hmm, your statement just made me ponder sort of the opposite…

I wonder if keeps any plans/videos on his phone of sites he has/is worked/working at.

That’s super interesting (given the post context).

I’m going to have to knock this out already then, I’m off work for a week. If I can finish The Hobbit in a day, I can do the same here!

Thank you for the response, I’ll try and report back if I actually keep up my current motivation.

I have a friend that uses Tiktok. He has never posted a video on there, just watches crap.

He went to bed one night in August and mentioned that overnight, as he slept, the Tiktok app sent/received 8.6 gbs of data as he slept, the app was closed, screen locked.

I can only imagine what the Tiktok app does if you have a son/daughter with Tiktok on their phone (whether you know or not) and work for a state/federal government.

Very unsettling.

Yeah, I love looking at homes or lots of land for sale (rarely, for is depressing, ha), find something appealing (though generally still unaffordable), proceed to search for the address and wham-o! - HOA with monthly to annual fee. Plus bonus stipulations of what you can/cannot do to both the interior/exterior.

All valid points. Thanks for mentioning, “mortgage poor”. It’s amazing how many people think that’s the solution to rent…when you’re typically agreeing to pay, essentially rent, for 30 years.

An everyone who gets a mortgage, with rare exception, OF COURSE, believes it will be paid off well before they are anywhere near 30 years. Seemingly forgetting that health issues, social issues, weather events, etc are likely going to stop that from happening.

This post just keeps getting more bleak, lol…

Is this from Neuromancer per chance? I own the book and never read it.

I do not want to acknowledge how long I have owned it though, lol. It is crazy how things can end up backlogged.

It’s really sad that someone had the thought process of, “I bet we can convince people to live in these fucking things”. An despite this small bump in the road, it is seemingly working.

It’s disgusting how many people will leverage housing costs (especially in San Francisco) against their fellow (hu)man.

I remember reading about, “pod hotels” in Akiharbara, “Electric Town”, Japan in the late 90s or early 2000s. I recall them being marketed as a cheap way to see the neighborhood. Even back then, Akiharbara was the global epicenter of anime/manga, retro gaming, arcades, computer stores and repair shops.

Glad to see the concept has now evolved to, “dystopian hell” some 20 years later.

My System 76 laptop I bought a few years back is still alive and well. Ubuntu MATE or Manjaro I typically run now. Sometimes it makes me feel like a sellout running those distros. I know that’s a goofy thought. Is underdog syndome a thing? Ha.

We’re, “Glorified indentured servants”, 1800s USA Irish immigrant style.

…An I think that is the best case scenario.
