Prayers and likes is assistance right?

Dutch can do the same. You can just keep slapping words together. It never ends.

Not to argue about the privacy issue, but aren’t there better options than a towel? Get a phone without camera? Get one of those phones with physical switches for sensors? Get graphene OS and don’t install anything but signal? I feel the towel wrapping is not the best solution for your privacy issue.

Screenshots are so much faster than a link though on a phone. I do crop mine before sending, but I send a lot of Screenshots in my group chats.

Where I work, it’s a non issue. As long as it doesn’t impact your work and nobody notices it (foul odor or behaviour), nobody could care less.

To be honest, books are the only form of media I don’t pirate. They deserve my money. Sucks that I have to use big shops to get them digital, but it’s so easy…

After some more thinking, I guess the original piracy has to come from somewhere :)

Genuine question : why not just download a pirated version of the book then? Seems like a huge hassle for the same end result

Scroll past them Ignore them

You don’t mind seeing naked titties if they’re from some random model stolen online? But lord, the horror if a girl a tries to make a living from selling pictures and a fantasy without getting ripped off by big companies.

The brainpower some lemmings expend on absolutely trivial things always keeps boggling my mind tbh.

While it was an interesting read, the article is quite outdated and the author is overly negative of literally everything, not just privacy. If a browser has a glowy button, it’s horrible because it’s too fancy… I feel for the guy…

I’d just take a clear stance on something right from the bat, doesn’t matter what. AI is always needlessly careful when you ask it to pick a favorite color/food/soccer team/religion/skincolor/country/…

My Instagram is full of fitness content (and good looking people tbh). Nothing comes even remotely close on pixelfed. No offence to federated social media, but we all ain’t good looking :) (or suck at using filters…)

It’s still a very long way off from taking over Instagram.

Lemmy has a hardon for FOSS, and an irrational hatred for windows.

Aside from that, it’s quite nice imo

Being overly Paranoia? Can’t think of another valid reason.

Swap to a 0 calorie version and just keep enjoying it? Fizzy drinks are a pretty harmless vice in the grand scheme of things. Hollow calories, so if you can replace it with a 0 calorie version, it would at least stop affecting your weight.

I know everyone is against artificial sweeteners. They won’t kill you faster than microplastics, pollution, break pad dust, war, alcohol, smoking,…

Enjoy life! Enjoy a fizzy drink! I thoroughly enjoy my daily coke zero can.

I also prefer electric cars, but goddamn if I haven’t gotten a heart attack multiple times from a sneaky silent ev fly past me minding my own business walking on the road. (not every road has sidewalks in the non-US city where I live)

Don’t want to get into a whole argument, But ltt suggested to stop throwing dirt. GN turned around and just continued slinging dirt. Just feels weird to me.

Depending on your local postal laws and how willing your postman is, it would either get delivered, and the delivery address gets asked to pay, or it would not get delivered. Or it would get delivered, with just a little complaint note attached.

I’d argue the risk of non delivery is probably relatively high in most countries.

Place where I live has super good postal delivery. My workplace gets quite a lot of post. They deliver it with a little note to inform you postal fees should be paid.

A whole lot of shit slinging at LTT for no real reason. At when LTT rebuked the claims and suggested to stop doing so and work together in the future, GN just decided to double down and continue.

A bunch of childish stupid drama tbh, but very one-sided.

To be honest, GN is not worth your viewing time anymore. He’s just trying to stir drama on tech YouTube for the sake of starting drama…

He got multiple olive branches offered to stop the drama and he just threw them on top of the fire. He’s being a manchild for no reason.
