My theory is that he’s a neoliberal corporatist traitor who decided to sabotage the party because the socialists and progressives did too well in the election. Can’t have success associated with a leftward shift, ever, at all costs – even capitulating to fascist pedos for zero gain.
The exceptions are things like my phone because it’s a necessary device these days and there aren’t a lot of options for something not locked down to all hell.
Graphene is good enough, IMO.
The real problem is that getting to 99% is damn near a full-time job and the capitalist cartel actively punishes it (by only offering owner control in ‘commercial-grade’ products at huge markup, or not manufacturing such things at all and forcing you to DIY).
It’s unreasonable to expect any but the most dedicated (read: stubborn) people like us to be able to handle it; the only viable solution for the masses is to wrestle back control of the government and end regulatory capture of the FTC etc.
Didn’t they already try that? I figured that’s why Amazon wanted to buy them.
That’s maybe one of the three factors I mentioned, and even then cyclist-cyclist collisions are much less common or severe than automobile-automobile ones. There’s a reason even the busiest bike path intersections don’t have fancy safety devices like traffic lights, after all: they don’t need them.
Gas station or truck stop? If the latter, it isn’t that shocking that they might lazily use the same authorization charge amount for cars as they do for 18-wheelers.
Merely asserting something and explaining it to my satisfaction (as a developer myself) are two different things. I don’t want to have to read through both codebases myself, but I would have liked the Graphene OS devs to cite some examples to prove their point.
Username checks out, LOL
And yet the GrapheneOS people recommend their own “Vanadium” hardened version of Chromium instead, for reasons I don’t understand.
I’m convinced that something unique about being enclosed in a car makes it worse. The depersonalization of interacting with other objects instead of other people since you can’t really see the drivers inside all that well. The defensiveness that comes with the fact that a car is not only one of the most expensive things but also that the interior feels like an extension of your private space even though you’re in public. The feeling of power that comes from operating dangerous heavy machinery, and worry that others are doing so too but getting it wrong and endangering you, etc.
The real !mildlyinfuriating part is the implication that the propositions are less important than the election of people.
There are no electric cars that don’t track you except for the really old NiMH Rangers and Rav4s and whatnot that they leased to fleets in California back in the day. Even the very first mass-market Nissan Leaf had unacceptable telemetry from day 1.
You’re fucked. Best you can do is ride a bike when possible, and keep driving old cars from the mid-2000s or earlier when necessary.
To be fair, that’s the intended lesson of regular monopoly as well.
When justice fails, all that remains is vigilantism. These corrupt pieces of shit have to be stopped, one way or another.
But at least they’re setting a good example for other countries to emulate.
On the bright side, they’re right on schedule to build a transit station 1.9 miles away in 2055.
Most people in Argentina and Uruguay are white, and the (indigenous + indigenous-mixed) majorities in some of the other countries aren’t necessarily big enough to be considered “virtually all,” especially when you consider that there are folks with African ancestry there as well.
Half Life: Blue Shift already happened.
(I appreciate the Flintstones joke, though.)
(Epstein is commenting on these emails post-mortem? Maybe I missed something here.)
Mark Epstein, Jeffrey’s brother, apparently.
Already own game
Not bad but I should play more
Oops, it’s a haiku!
