wtf is up with this coordinated push to tie your internet accounts to your government ID.

what garbage international NGO is behind it this time?

more like Every Person’s Sky

they are working really hard to weasel their way into total mass surveillance where literally everything you do online is known to the government.

very handy to stamp out dissent if you crimialize free speech and then also force everyone to be deanonymized

they really hate that citizens can just criticize them freely

you clearly don’t understand the infinite monkey theorem

monkeys do not have human rights so they do not have to be paid, thus infinite moneys with typewriters are cheaper than junior devs yet can literally solve every problem

the number of extant fish species with human-like teeth is larger than the number of extant human species with human-like teeth, so perhaps we have pacu-like teeth instead

there’s only a very small fraction of communes that actually work and they need very specific people. There’s one I can think of that sells beaded hammocks or something that has actually been successful long term. But who knows that might just be because of a few central figures holding everything together.

it’s more reasonable to reconstruct an old timey village vibe or a family/clan focused community.

personally a commune sounds like my own personal hell. I like privacy and people minding their own business. I wouldn’t mind being surrounded by my close friends though. even then I would probably kill them after half a year if I had to see them every day.

I should enter the stalking industry. business will be booming

you just gotta reframe failures to feighl yores > never experience a failure again

easy

it’s creepy and masturbatury to talk to AI as if it was a human. it’s a tool that doesn’t care about you and will always agree with everything you say.

automation or shrinking business?

they’re not doing it to get you to turn it back on, but your mom who you turned it off for. drives me mad how often I have to redisable privacy nightmares everytime my mom asks me to help her with her phone.

VPN + DeGoogled Privacy Android ROM would be the most practical. That way you should br free from most if not all cross device tracking.

In general having a seperate device for that stuff makes total sense.

Get some sort of device that is compatible with CalyxOS or GrapheneOS, like an older Pixel

not sure what would be best to handle verification.

You also have to be careful to use totally new accounts for everything on this new device, different number, different email, different device, different sim etc

you must not be a radio star

the only thing that can really stop it IMO is mainstreaming decentralized social media and messaging services.

You’d need to effectively replace Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Whatsapp etc… The only thing that totally keeps us from 1984 is that all these platforms for now have decided to be relatively free and impartial (compared to how bad it could be). But that could change at any time if the powers that be decide to on a whim. They could completely ban all privacy, pacificsm or any kind of political opposition tomorrow.

I mean no glass on the oven door is a little bit inconvenient and there is no visible range hood (you can have them built into the range itself), othewise there is nothing wrong with it. cleaning a gas stove is more work, but some people swear by gas. the painting can be a glass print if you really want it. I don’t understand why this qualifies as a meme

You can tell Ross is sick of being the de facto leader. Understandable really, amazing that he even stepped up in the first place.

That’s pretty cool, it never made sense to have all these cloud services for what is really a local task
