Fucking terrorists

I stepped off a one foot tall wall and fractured one of my foot bones

It’s 2025. Fascism and authoritarianism is on the rise in my country, leading my likeliness to become part of a localised resistance army, or a ‘terrorist’, to rise to 40%. Being a trans woman, I’m probably already considered a terrorist by some people.

Humans first

How about some FACTS BITCH

In 2022 in the USA, there were 285 million registered vehicles. Also in 2022 there were 5,930,496 reported crashes, resulting in one crash for every 48 vehicles in 2022.

In the 7 YEARS between 2015 and 2022 Tesla has delivered 2.6 million cars with Autopilot capability. In the 6 YEARS between 2018 and 2024 there were 956 reviewed crashes, resulting in one crash for every 2,720 Teslas in that period. Ignoring the huge difference in timeframes, Tesla is FIFTY SIX TIMES SAFER than humans in the USA alone

Sorry it’s in the Trans Day of Visibility Insights link from the original page, starting at ‘Most Searched Terms’

I agree that ads can help people be aware of a product’s existence, but I believe, especially at this stage when I am tired of being spoonfed, that a more organic way is preferable. For example - forums, product reviews (REAL ones ofc), product storefronts including online marketplaces…

When someone needs something, they can go looking for it. A door that grates on a frame for example, may be talked about on a forum, which discusses the products others have found to help. In this case a mouse(shaped) sander. The person can then follow breadcrumbs to the most convenient store that sells it.

This is actually the way I find most things I need. The vast majority of products shown to me, passively on various items in the streets or in video format, are useless to me. Regarding VPNs, I first learned about them when I looked for a solution to a website article having an error page stating that it cannot be viewed in my country. Again when I pirated movies. Eventually I saw Mullvad mentioned on Reddit, when I entered more FOSS and Linux spaces

THE DEUCE? damn, thanks for this

Ah I understand now, I was a little slow to get that the “loan” is the $700 and it won’t be repaid for a while… Damn. Well I hope the next update is a positive one! YMMV but I’ve learned that harassing customer service often works, by chasing it up with another email every few days to however often you can handle it

It was so good to hear that in the LA protests

So… Pornhub. Censors the ‘u’ in ‘fucks’. On their year in review. I’m clearly too stupid to understand the obsession with censorship and control of expression

Here’s the thing. The reason ads are bad is because almost every single one is for a product that will exploit the user. Mullvad is a product that does the opposite. They ask for money, but don’t force it. They intend to give power of the user’s life back to the user. Thus, some ads are actually okay. Ads about VPNs, self hosted systems, anti-corporate anticapitalist services, software that is for you to use and only ever takes telemetry for software improvement, and then only if you consent first.

Hell, before this garbage, on TV the only ads were products and charities, and everybody grew really sick of the African child ads because its sole purpose was to exploit the viewer’s empathy and get their money. Same with now, except if it’s not money they want it’s data, and data is money to them.

The trick is for everyone on the seesaw to move as far away as possible from AI, then it’ll balance or tilt in favour of the people

Am a woman, have no clue what this is on about. My dick hasn’t been affected by summer

Body heat, however, is a different story. It’s definitely wider when hot. I provisionally support this claim by the men

This shit is really making me prefer ISIS to any other regime

Erasure, huh

God I loved those disturbed Tom memes

Which god are we talking about? And which heaven! Definitely not Islamic, but one of the Hindu heavens? One of the Jewish ones maybe?

I’d say I’m English gay, so I’m far more reserved and inconspicuous than other cultures’ queers lol

Obligatory fuck Thor of PirateSoftware

My childhood game of choice was Left 4 Dead. That had community server abilities long before Valve ‘stopped’ developing the game. This particular solution is very simple and has been implemented hundreds of times. Here is an explanation of how Left 4 Dead 2 server options work, as well as a list of servers, all of which are run on players’ own machines and, save for the choice of mods, have the ability to host multiplayer games exactly like Valve’s official Steam servers do.

Side note - this was only possible on Steam, because consoles had to run through their respective manufacturer’s proprietary systems and made for a much more restrictive and costly upkeep.

A neodymium magnet could work, maybe even a fake one from Amazon
