Trans woman that lives in a big city here. After multiple scary encounters and one requiring pepper spray, I don’t walk outside at night by myself anymore. It’s amazing that when the world saw me as a guy a decade ago that I could wear headphones and not be even slightly concerned. That’s just not the case anymore.

The various cyber attacks by the CIA done with the “you can’t prove it was us” Anonymous cover.

Can’t hurt.

However I don’t really care what Republican leaders say at all, hopefully Republican voters do.

True Incognito mode is a myth, it only stops keeping a history in the tab of that browser. Everytime you use a browser to go to any site ever, the browser logs you went there. So does your ISP and the site your connecting to. No matter which mode or browser you use, if you go to Google, then Google knows you went there and logs your searches.

The closest you can come to browsing the web anonymously would be with a mix of dedicated privacy OS like Tails and either a VPN or Tor as a middile man, but that assumes those proxys are not corrupted. Free VPNs make money by selling your “secret browsing” habits.

The internet is nothing more than wires, if you connect your wire to someone elses, every intermediatary knows.

I still believe 9/11 was an inside job or at least high level officials, including Bush, were aware it was going to happen

Crazy talk. This was absolutely not a widely held opinion.

The Life Aquatic. I just absolutely adore the sad, disappointed and fragile characters. Fuckin hilarious!

As a pineapple on pizza enjoyer I am not gonna judge, taste is subjective so no one but you decides what goes on your food. Honestly, this is how new recipes are made. If no one tried new variations then we wouldn’t have most of our favorites!

There is a pretty decent chance I saw that on the day it was posted. I feel old. 😔

I’m thankful my father was so insistent on teaching me to type properly. At the time I was super annoyed at him putting a cardboard cutout over the keyboard so I couldn’t see keys. But touch typing has been a boon ever since, I doubt dad was prepping me for typing quickly mid-game but it sure is nice!

It’s not 100% clear why Larian didn’t include these features in the toolkit to begin with, but it may be a case of protecting certain copyrighted assets being scraped easily from the game, or from being altered in a way that is unpleasing to DnD’s intellectual property overlords.

Super duper cool that this was done, I just worry that WoTC/Hasbro will mandate this sort of thing needs to be squashed. The new DND system is focusing heavily on a virtual tabletop system under a subscription plan. While standalone BG3 isn’t a threat, a modded full custom campaign could be seen as one. I wouldn’t even bring this up buuuuut between sending Pinkertons to collect MTG cards and the OGL crackdown, seems like any scummy move could be possible.

Hope I am worried about nothing tho.

Oooh, thank you!

I wish I could stop using Facebook entirely but the only family I allow in my life refuses to leave. And trust me, I have asked for us to switch. Every time I send SMS it doesn’t get seen and she tells me to use messenger. 🙃

L5-S1 disc protrusion.

Happened 4 years ago. Constant pain 24/7, unbearably so when I stand. Spent a year unable to walk, got surgery, could stand/walk for a hour-ish these last few years but had a reinjruy when I pushed myself. Now even with drugs the lowest my pain gets is a 5, walking to bathroom gets me to 9. Picking up my wheelchair on monday, hoping for a new surgery but idk. Just trying to cope day by day now.

So, yeah. Here’s hoping your injury isn’t as bad. ♥

As someone with mobility problems, honestly. I think one could finish me.

above average salary because I put the effort in

And those who doesn’t have a comfortable life must not put the effort in? The unhoused, the disabled, those with medical debt, the people who make below average salary. Say, the minimum wage families living out of their car, just aren’t trying hard enough?

It’s not, but the people who care about ethics and would answer yes, already left.

So now it’s just everyone else. Articles like this aren’t really aimed at us.

Eh. You’re allowed to disagree, and I wasn’t even born when those movies came out so I didn’t really experince it as a cultural moment.But personally I don’t find 'em that fun or interesting. I’ve watched primer at least half a dozen times, but I’ll never choose to watch Back again.

The only time travel movie i would describe as “realistic”. One of my favorite movies overall.

Documentaries don’t generally get sequels, but here’s hoping enough dumbasses buy in so Netflix/Hulu can do another set.

“Anywhere is a bathroom if you are drunk enough.”

-an old roommate

He was fun, but, uh, yeah. He definitely had a drinking problem. Drank on the job, at work, to fall asleep, to relax, when he was nervous, when he was happy. Not sure if he ever put this in to pratice but I wouldn’t doubt it at all.

Some people say diversity pandering

Of course they did. 🙄
