The whole point is that everything is in an official ledger, that can be argued over in front of a judge.
Best you can do is say you don’t consent for your data to be sold. Find a smaller bank or a credit union where they have to give a shit about their customers.
Sunny top secret art of war zeroth rule: Don’t get in a war idiot.
Somebody said laser. Those things vaporize toner into your air.
A printer where you can actually see the ink tank and you can refill it.
Disgusting. “Save button”
Humor: more cells means higher midichlorian count
Cynic: we’re all going to be rebuilt like this when the AI solves cold fusion. Probably for the better.
(Verse 1) Well, I was ridin’ the range, just me and my truck, Through the dust and the tumbleweeds, out of pure luck. She was shiny and new, with a mind of her own, My trusty old partner, on the wide open road.
(Chorus) But my self-driving truck, she’s got a heart of steel, Left me in the dust, for another man’s wheel. She don’t need no cowboy, to tell her what to do, My self-driving truck, found herself someone new.
(Verse 2) We’d roamed through the deserts, and over the plains, Through the storms and the sunshine, the joy and the pain. But she up and left me, without a goodbye, Now I’m just a lone cowboy, under the big sky.
(Chorus) Oh, my self-driving truck, she’s got a heart of steel, Left me in the dust, for another man’s wheel. She don’t need no cowboy, to tell her what to do, My self-driving truck, found herself someone new.
(Bridge) I guess I never thought, that she’d leave me this way, With a mind of her own, she chose her own way. Now I’m stuck here alone, with my old boots and hat, Just a cowboy in the sunset, where the memories sat.
(Chorus) Yeah, my self-driving truck, she’s got a heart of steel, Left me in the dust, for another man’s wheel. She don’t need no cowboy, to tell her what to do, My self-driving truck, found herself someone new.
(Outro) So here’s to the highways, and the roads that we roam, To the self-driving trucks, that find their own home. I’ll keep riding solo, through the wind and the rain, Just a cowboy without his truck, but I’ll never complain.
I’m not going back to typing my grocery list manually. So I’m fucked in that part of my life.
Edit: thank you to everybody suggesting privacy preserving methods of grocery list maintenance. I’ve already considered them.
Ah shit, is this the time line where privacy isn’t needed cause people want better AI?
Team fortress 2 is completely unrecognizable to me
They shouldn’t have to though. Especially when taxes pay for them whirlybirds

When was the last time VLC paid $50K USD for a proper security audit?
It’s possible to get a virus from any data that enters your computer full stop.
Likelyhood wise: that virus on the MKV will have to attack the operating system preview system (which means you fucked all the way up to personal nation state attention), or attack the video player (which is a lot more likelier, they discover theoretical exploits all the time).
You’re talking about streaming with VLC? Was it a trusted source? Cause otherwise the FBI or script kiddie has probably fucked you up.
As a side note, I’ve completed writing this guide and have found that HexChat is no longer supported.
Now that a sign of a true IRC user
It’s protocols over platforms. I’m not too worried about the protocol.
My opinion is that concealed filming be inadmissible in court without a “warrant” to allow its entry as evidence. Prosecutors have to state what they hope the concealed video will contain, and only that portion can be used.
Too many missing people for me to agree entirely that concealed filming is completely bad.
I don’t believe that the NSA has a portal giving them direct access (probably naive).
They definitely have a secret agent 🕵️♀️ nerd on the inside providing intel on the structure. Maybe inject exploits or guide them when needed.
They definitely have a direct e-mail address to cloudflare legal to serve national security letters that cloud flare is obligated to comply with. Which is a portal with extra steps, but which cloud flare can raise a fuss if they notice the requests are turning into vacuum cleaners, and not union membership research.
Most important part of the blog post:
We are planning a 3rd party security audit for the protocols and cryptography design in July 2024, and also the security audit for an implementation in December 2024/January 2025, and it would hugely help us if some part of this $50,000+ expense is covered with donations.
Signal is a close second.
