Oddly, I don’t think Immortan Joe would waste resources like this.

I wish Bill Gates would publicly trip and fall on banana peels like Bezos does.

I don’t think I’ll ever consensually use Windows ever again.

Most people online are chomping at the bit to dox and therefore murder each other on extremely flimsy pretexts IMO. Every time I see any kind of accusation against a non-famous person that’s what it turns out to be.

Ok. You didnt post anything, but whatever. I’m gonna block you, please don’t stalk me for years.

I don’t agree with calling people “selfish” in this sense.

Imagine that you have ZERO connection to anyone other than your blood relatives in any material way. If you were literally dying on the street, anyone who wasn’t a direct blood relative would literally step over you while you were dying. Everyone who isn’t your literal best friend or your mom is rude or apathetic towards you.

In this circumstance, what material motivation do you have to show solidarity to anyone other than yourself and your first degree blood relatives? Please don’t give me an emotional argument, I want a material one. “It’s the right thing” or “because humanity” or “because Heaven” isn’t going to cut it here.

While I’m sure you’re right because that’s what I’ve seen too, I am also aware that there is a nonzero number of people who accuse people of fascism for no reason other than to harass them, so I’m going to need you to drop a source that will take me less than five minutes to understand.

If you’re unable to explain something to a child, an old person, a stupid person, or an apathetic person, you don’t really know enough about the topic to be an authority.

“If you don’t occupy yourself for 5 hours with this thing I am forcing you to do, it means you’re a fascist or an apologist (implication: and I am therefore justified in potentially harassing you).”

I think this person is just a violent control freak IMO but I could be wrong

Hard to tell with writing, but most AI “art” is watermarked. Other AI can see the watermark. Humans can see it with tools. Google has a free one, so do many other sites.

I’ve learned that it all starts with the phone, and the internet router. The phone is essentially a little computer that people use as a wallet. Phone number is connected to almost everything people do. If someone has a smartphone they should update it every 5-8 years, even if they don’t use online banking.

Personally, if I didn’t want to buy a smartphone I’d just get a fliphone. Those are like $15, $20. You can afford to buy one of those every 8 years. Tracfone sim cards are essentially disposable so it’s possible to use a phone number to create an account and then discard it if needed, or keep it active indefinitely. When I used Tracfone, I’d pay by the minute or by the text, and the time would last until used. I’d pay $20 once and get say 60 minutes of talk and however many texts. At the time I communicated mostly on messaging apps so I’d use the phone number for things I’d need a phone number for, like the doctor. The smartphones are like $40-$100.

I wouldn’t use fake identities for e-commerce but rather I’d choose a trusted e-commerce platform, use a fake email and phone number because they now demand both but use your real name and address. I don’t know how you’re getting things on e-commerce using an alias, because they need to be able to send you the thing you bought. There’s a service called Hushed, requires a tablet or phone, which sells phone numbers in packs of 1-3. 3 pack of phone numbers is $15, so you could have a phone number for personal use, a phone number for work, a phone number for e-commerce. There’s also MySudo, which sells 9 pack of email/phone number aliases for $15. With Hushed it’s possible to login on other devices but MySudo is device encrypted and requires a QR code to sync a limted number of devices.

If you’re interested in investing, want to use a mobile device for some reason but don’t want a phone, you should get a fliphone and a tablet instead of using a smartphone. A lot of smartphone apps, including those for online banking or trading, are also on the tablet. Tablets are a lot more advanced today than 5 years ago, and they’re more like ‘lite’ computers, but they have the same smartphone apps a lot of the time. But, you’d have to feel comfortable spending $200-$800 every 8 years on a tablet instead of a phone.

Yes it is a search engine, it’s also a browser. It’s a good browser for old people.

Yeah, fat chance. You essentially think I’m personally responsible for AI because I occasionally use it to make filler clipart. There is no way in hell that you’re going to accept any of my existing flaws, let alone approach me with anything resembling class solidarity in order to stage some type of revolution or whatever. I don’t expect that there are too many people willing to overlook petty bullshit like that to be honest.
