What are your thoughts on sewer surveillance?

Alot of Viruses or Bacteria remain dorment for some time before unleashing attacks, though for a very short time, these viruses are still spreading from one person to another though various orifice including the one behind into the sewer, and if they monitor the sewer they can catch something like this early in the group of...

The much more present issue is your own government ignoring the wastewater data dude. I remember they were able to do interesting things like figure out what kind of meth people were using with that wastewater analysis. It could be a really useful tool where other institutions have completely failed. I think you're just creeped out by science man.

Honestly that kind of stuff combined with a few landlords has made me really hate hippies. I just associated with narcissists.

Right, that's a crazy situation that nobody has even suggested that's being dreamed up to scaremonger about wastewater surveillance, which hasn't even been used to the extent it needs to for public health

Yeah, there's a lot going on there because, on one hand, we know there are bacteria which are going to find a way to make you crave sugar, but on the other hand, there's a psychological entertainment factor from the sweetness, But then, again, the taste buds in your asshole can sense the sucralose in the same way that disgusting fast food keeps people addicted by hyper-simulating their gut to crave it. I'm bolderizing this here because I'm not a nutritionist, but you get what I'm saying. Also apologies for any dictation errors or background noise that gets turned into an Aaron Quirk.

How do you stop turning every hobby into a 'side hustle' and just enjoy learning for fun?

Lately I catch myself treating everything I like as a potential income stream: cooking videos, woodworking, learning Spanish all get measured by views, followers, or 'marketable' skills. I want hobbies that are messy, slow, and purely for pleasure, but guilt and the constant pressure to monetize make that feel wasteful....

Ah you're still hurting from that one are you? The petit boug mindset in OP is simply terminal, I'm being honest. Reddit loves this kind of guy, and presumably you since you also feel attacked

Hm? No I just clarified that I wasn't joking. Can you read? There's no point in trying to explain to OP how to do something he fundamentally doesn't want to do. It's not a matter of knowing how. He actually expects praise for this.

I give the same kind of scolding when people post their moldy rice cookers. You're an adult please act like it

As a reply guy account that spends all its time trying to make pithy comments on World you are more Reddit than average 2025 Reddit users, who have a chance of wandering in normal-style due to the site's notoriety.

Why go through the trouble to use Arch?

May be a mean sounding question, but I’m genuinely wondering why people would choose Arch/Endevour/whatever (NOT on steam hardware) over another all-in-one distro related to Fedora or Ubuntu. Is it shown that there are significant performance benefits to installing daemons and utilities à la carte? Is there something else...

You need a complex system to do something simple. To simply press the gas pedal and fucking go you need an internal combustion engine that is nasty to look at, this confangled monstrosity, harder to manufacture than the batteries that will replace it. When you just drive your car you never have an inkling of the whole mechanism

These are the well-established rules to maintain quality of discussion in the face of an onslaught of clueless redditors. They were established many years ago. I'm not about to start spoon feeding the rudest, most arrogant people on earth, especially when a bunch of them fall out of the closet to derail the discussion by taking umbrage with someone not spoon-feeding.

You're being typically antisemitic by equivocating ridicule of the Israeli press with ridicule of Jewish people broadly. Hopefully the animus behind it is a nerd's preening and correcting, not something darker and dare I say Eastern European? This is a running joke that Israeli Hebrew press is significantly nastier in terms of racism, and far more liberal in terms of dirty laundry. And Israeli or Qatari Arabic news 😂🤣 ohhh don't get me started

You can scold all you want but there is no erasing it from public memory now

Well, that's enough out of you now that you've blatantly stepped on your feet. What a funny thing to say on a post about a fourteen year old special needs boy getting violated by fascists.

Yeah this is like the only thing people know about Israel. Americans are coping by telling themselves if they get rid of one bribery channel for Zionist donors to give treats to politicians that it will remove the utility an expanding nuclear settler state in the middle east (integrated with the US + UK etc intelligence apparatus since WWII) serves for a country that applies much of its remaining control through the petrodollar system and its military (which needs a completely unrestricted forward operating base). The cosmopolitan bourgeoisie is centered in the USA and that is why all its allies support Israel.

I've heard people claim Ukraine, Turkey, UAE, and Saudis all nefariously control the US govt. It's laughable. These people are all lapdogs for now they only vaguely dream of acting on their brics associations. They keep their options open and China gains a bit of financial and trade leverage.

I feel like I derive so much of my identity from my past, and its just weighing me down at this point. How do I drop it?

I had quite a shitty life when I was younger and I feel like it's come to define me. Since I had no control over what my actual life looked like, I instead chose to define my identity by what I wanted it to look like, and what I would have done had I had the freedom to choose. So I based my identity on my made up story instead...

I was wondering if my VPN works basically, from a young age. This led me to reading about Cold War intrigue and assassinations quite a bit, everyone was recommending NATO's Secret Armies in 2016 for some reason, which is a solid Gladio book. You come to the conclusion that any intelligence agency tied to the US or unable to defend against it makes any server, manufacturer, person etc in that country potentially compromised pretty easily

If you're only worried about the privacy concerns of a commercial IT guy you're just not seeing the big picture

    You have an obligation to stay alive as long as possible and improve the universe even if it's complete torture to do so. Which is why you should make sure 2chill+have fun+b naughty&playful. That's all there is to do, it's the only way things can overall improve. This is obviously the meaning of life but people just ignore it because they're stupid - listen to me instead. You need to be getting an adequate intake of potassium.

    Can Google read my Signal messages on stock Android?

    I recently asked the /c/Android community what information Google has access to on stock Android, assuming the user is not using any Google apps, and was told Google has full "unstoppable" access to the entire device, including Signal messages, the microphone, duckduckgo search history and anything displayed on the screen at all...

    Is the most sophisticated surveillance apparatus in history going to ignore you just because you're a little guy and it has a legal corporate frontend? Google has guys who planted bombs in the pagers of Lebanese doctors to get at Hezbollah working in their offices. They are one of the most important business partners of the organizational umbrella Guantanamo Bay falls under. Security by obscurity? I don't think so man. Being a blurred image in the corner doesn't mean you won't be counted as an illegal combatant by the glorious Pentagon battle computers. There's this misconception people have that there is a rational limit to the surveillance even while they see articles about how many nuclear reactors would be needed to scale the US AI griftdustry. This is the country that famously put little children on the no-fly list because they were automatically marked as relatives of citizens of concern.

    Signal is not trustworthy. Firebase notifications is not trustworthy. Google, ditto. Your phone's hardware itself...

    No joke, progressive resistance training (weightlifting) for older people can be better bc it has cardio built in but takes less time and is more precise so you can really manage exertion well. It signals the body to retain muscle so you can intermittent fast w/out losing ability while on a caloric deficit and w/out inflammation and other crap while on a surplus, making it easier to keep precancerous bodies swept up. I am not actually old yet, but I plan to be old.

    Also, people may not realize poor sleep hygiene can reduce your physical strength by 30% (measured by resistance training) or maybe more due to coordination issues

    Shrek 3 on Wii. Finding Nemo on Playstation 2. Binding of Isaac flash. Tribes: Ascend. Starcraft 2. Hearts of Iron 4. Disco Elysium is a wonderful RPG suffering from the most annoying writing possible from Estonian liberal leftoids.

    The only game that has ever lived up to the hype was wallace and gromit project zoo on ps2, super smash bros melee and kirby air ride. Also counter strike. Fortnite is very good but is somehow also overhyped. Legend of Grimrock 2 should have been hyped

    Runescape and WoW are awful. People should be ashamed of themselves. Using an organization app is literally more fun and mentally active
