Man if you go in there nodding out and drooling on the desk I feel like they’re not giving you a gun and you couldn’t go to basic training until you went through treatment you would tell them.

What’s there to prove? You showed up high AF on opiates and are very clearly (in their eyes) a drug addict if you do that.

Take an opiate before I go in and nod out in the line or seat or interview or whatever.

Also talk about how you’ve had to be on the opiates to come to terms with figuring out that you might be a different gender.

Boom. No war for you.

(I’m not really conscription age)

I think its the Amazing World of Gumball

I feel like a decade or two (damn) ago now DailyMotion really had a chance man even Vimeo there for a min but then its like they just gave up fr.

It was kind if interesting to see people using Pornbub there for a min and it would have been cool for them to try and lean into that more with like a sfw variant of some sort (called something different) because they are probably one of the only companies that have the ability to do it honestly and even then, idk if they could really do it like YouTube does.

YouTube is the one single thing I haven’t de googled myself from.

You know that’s not a bad idea at all I think the cut is better for them that way too they probably make significantly more for an individuals watch time from a donation on Patreon vs that person watching their video once or twice.

I can’t speak for every government in the world, but as far as the major ones go, USA, Russia, China - I have less than zero percent trust in any of their companies to handle my data in a private and safe way.

It just isn’t happening. They will dissect it, sell the data points they can, surveil you with the other data points, train AI with it and all kinds of other shenanigans. And most people know this.

That’s why you can’t just go right in to doing that, gotta help me adults think they’re helping children and society at large first. Start with something small, just a small inconsequential right they lose (“Oh, I have to input my age to access this site”) and then raise the stakes a little (“Oh, now I have to input my picture ID, ok”)

Until it escalates into full inescapable 24/7 surveillance against you. And far from before that moment in time its already too late.

Once they implement this, its already too late.

I always thought it was Tuta that was the honeypot.

I love signal and use I daily but I will admit the lack of self hosting is the biggest red flag for me. And that the servers are all in USA.

Unfortunately, I don’t have any alternatives that are as readily accessible and easy to set up to others. XMPP I guess is really the best bet for true privacy but a lot of people I talk to would be unable to grasp how to set it up and use it correctly.

Lol, I notice he didn’t say anything in reply to this.

What would you recommend as an alternative to Signal?

Ok so real question to this,

Are they using some sort of equipment that regular civilians (in the rest of the world) don’t have access to or are they really just that talented with this? I struggle to produce good videos of AI “people”.

Don’t get me wrong I know their hacking team is one of the best in the world I understand that but a lot of the time they just seem to be using regular shit like AI and social engineering to do exploits.

Weren’t they the ones that robbed a bank by using an AI phone call looking like the owner?

I had to leave a job one time because I lost my hard copy or SS card and they wouldn’t take a printed copy.

How the hell are these guys able to use AI like this and get away with it for so long??

Boy can you imagine the James Webb telescope they would shove up your ass if someone from North Korea stole your identity and used it to get paid from an American company?

Like would the US authorities just take your word for it surely not right? I’m thinking minimum of like a 30 day investigation and your electronics seized.

Idk just thinking about that scenario though is wild like “Oh man my identity got stolen how the fuck could my life get any worse?” KNOCK KNOCK

Use an unfreezable stable coin like DAI and convert to monero when you want to make private transactions. Never attach the ETH address with the stablecoin to your identity in any way no KYC or anything.

Well don’t worry, every other aspect of our lives is nickel and dimed (or hundred dollared and thousand dollared if you wanna be honest about it) too!

Literally every single thing. And it gets worse every single year! Then they wanna talk about “liberating” other countries its so fucking ridiculous.

I did not expect it to look that bad holy shit

It isn’t dead in the water. Google reversed that decision and also I believe part of a lawsuit against google before said it had to maintain the AOSP.

Because now they have OEM support.

The only thing Linux did that I don’t agree with was remove people with Russian nationality. I think that was more wrong than them allowing you to put whatever age you want at the beginning of startup.

I will say though that this is not the endgame. Porn sites started out this way too just enter an age and good to go. Eventually, it will be pushed to a point you have to upload ID now that might take years and years but when it happens there will be some distros left that won’t play ball.

I’m writing my lawyer as we speak.

Nah but wouldn’t that be legitimately wild if someone pushed that to the point to where California had to make an exemption for temple OS specifically?

Dude now that I think about this I wonder if this could work.

I think this highlights Microsoft’s inability to connect with its customers even more than the AI and shit.

They really just do not give a shit about the consumer, at all.

Its insane people put up with it on their own personal machines I get for work or whatever.
