Hi there!
2019 isn’t some ancient far away time though, it’s just a few years ago. If Facebook were doing stuff like this then, think who else is still doing it.
If it’s added as already opted in, I assume they pop something up to make it clear what’s been added and enabled, and how it affects the user’s privacy, with a link to the settings to change it if desired?
If so, that’s not too bad, no.
If they added it and didn’t make it clear, or worse yet didn’t call attention to it at all, that would piss me off.
Haha I was gonna suggest it too, it’s been a lot of fun! Helps get me walking and the community are nice :-)
Fake bullshit.
Climate change is real and serious, fake nonsense like this just serves to undermine real information about the ongoing disaster that is climate change.
Ok, but who’s the scientist bloke and what’s he claiming?
Earth is flat? Aliens walk among us? Billionaires are lizards?
Not enough of the mundane has been preserved throughout human history, it continues to be a big problem for historians. Especially when they only have major - likely very coloured or outright lies - official records of events and cultural touchstones to go on.
Why do you think we get so incredibly excited when we uncover something as mundane as the pricing artwork on an ancient Roman food stall? Because that stuff wasn’t preserved, nobody bothered to record such details, so much is lost because nobody thinks their place in history matters enough to bother saving it.
We’ve reached a point in our development where we now have the ability to preserve snapshots of our civilisation in great detail, with extreme ease. We owe it to ourselves and especially to future generations to do so.
I actually saw those once! Was so confused what they were at first, I was visiting the USA at the time and they had them in some of their public toilets.
But then they also have a huge - intentional - gap in the doors on those cubicles, so that people outside the cubicle waiting to use it were just watching me poop.
It was really fucked up, and not just a one off design mistake, this was EVERY public bathroom. Mental.
What would someone do if they didn’t cook their own meals? Hire a butler? Just get takeaway for their entire lives?
That would be mental. Everyone, except the truly weird - or in special situations, home cooks the majority of the time, right? O.o
Damn that sucks but glad things are moving in the right direction! What country had these banned?
He refuses to update the identification info for contributers? Why? It’s the least they can do for people who offer their time and expertise for the project.
Presumably he’d be happy to do so if they got married and changed their name, so it sounds like he’s probably a transphobe, right?
I also had an idea for a wifi network where a router talks to other routers in range to setup networks independent of the internet. The idea being that, if widely enough adopted, you could potentially cut out ISPs except in situations where the signal needs to travel long distances (like rural areas). The router would have an antenna for long-range communication, and then a second antenna to actually talk to devices in a smaller range. Kinda like meshtastic, but significantly faster (with the trade-off being distance and penetration).
There are open source projects in the works for just such a thing, I forget the details at the moment but I heard about them from the Meshtastic Discord funny enough.
Look up the IEEE 802.11ah standard (or Wi-Fi HaLow) for example, it’s a standard that can achieve pretty good WiFi data rates for quite a distance (enough that a neighborhood mesh would work well), whilst running on low power, sub-GHz hardware (like the Meshtastic hardware).

There are mesh internet projects using this, I just don’t remember their names right now haha.
Sadly while it uses more or less the same frequency band as LoRa in the USA (around 900MHz), I’m not sure how useable it is here in Europe given the band licensing restrictions. I’d like to think they’ve thought of that! But I dunno? I’ve seen HaLow hardware that only used the US band, but maybe other companies price EU equivalent hardware.
Sending multimedia via traditional text messaging uses the MMS service, which is ideal for very low resolution images, like sub megabyte, I didn’t even know it could support videos! Wild.
I suggest you add her on something like Discord, or WhatsApp, LINE, whatever works for you, and send each other multimedia that way :-)
Also depending on your provider you may incur lower costs and faster load times, too.
How is this invading someone’s privacy? All it’s doing is detecting if children are smoking in a room or space at school and then putting an alert up about the detection on a screen.
They have zero right to privately smoke at school, or anywhere for that matter, smoking is illegal for children and not something to be taken lightly.
Similarly, adults have no right to privately smoke whilst in the workplace in the bathroom or other non-smoking designated areas. This is also illegal and not to be taken lightly.
Let’s not be angry at the Devs, it’s the publishers and other execs we should be pissed at :-(
Where would max even come from? That’s not in their username o.O
In what way does the suspension require regular servicing or an online connection to a server to function? That would be the only reason to offer it as an ongoing service cost.
Otherwise, you’re just paying extra for something already in your car, not for an actual service, which would make no sense?
What next, paint ongoing service fees for having wheels? Not even for ensuring they’re regularly replaced, serviced, or repaired, just for the ability to use them at all…
What does this even mean? What’s a golden corral
Ah yes, “The government”. So descriptive. The UK government, no doubt.
I’m missing something here, because I keep seeing posts like this one that have no content. No images, no videos, not a text post, it’s just the title “What doesn’t kill ya” with no explanation.
I see all other posts elsewhere fine, it seems to just be posts in this one community, or from this one user maybe? I’m not sure.
I’m on Boost if that makes any difference…
I like you.
Let’s go somewhere, fall, and forget to hit the ground together.
