I use it because 22 years ago it was more appealing than redhat or Mandrake. It forced me to learn more about Linux because I had to resolve almost everything myself than any other distro. I was using before it had a package manager and honestly after the dependency hell of rpms in 2000s it just seemed more problematic to use one that resolved dependencies than not. Usually I used to and sometimes still use it for a nice base to compile everything on. I dunno. It’s my Linux equivalent to my first car that I loved.

Acting like there’s only one true community and anyone else would have malicious intent. Jesus Christ man.

Arguably the location data has several purposes, and needs to be collected but shouldn’t have been available for sale. It’s bad enough you can’t keep law enforcement out of it but even worse when random businesses get the information.

That said, in this day and age, it should be a no brainier that your phone is a tracking device for multiple organizations and we should all keep that in mind

Right? The implication here is pretty fuckin’ terrible

It’s the cost of doing business. You know you will be caught and you know how much they love to make big deals out of it, so… Adapt and overcome

Of which 96.7% are rule 34 artistic renderings.

I mean think of Hollywood or sports. Most people don’t do those things but they do consume it.

I will never forget how the entire republican primary consisted of all of them basically forecasting the future under him while he’s just sitting there being a dumb, smug fuckface shit talking all of them, Christie included then turned around and kissed his ass thankfully, gluttonously, with absolute enthusiasm for 4 years. Christie included.

What an appalling shit show.

This guy would be three steps ahead of the PR. Dude publicly mocked a guy in a wheelchair who also happened to have a 100 million dollar clause if he was fired, which he was, publicly, on Twitter while having his HIPAA information released by his CEO because he thought he was malingering.

What PR firm could get ahead of that ONE day, let alone so many others of that level of holy shit? Not one that wants to stay profitable since he’s supposedly stiffing other companies they do business with.

That’s a unix wizard beard level Dad joke

Conversely, why not if they can track my online activity, social media presence, shopping and voting habits. I mean they listen to conversations I’m having to make recommendations for ads so why not read my email too? Shit, they probably have enough information to just guess what’s there based off like 7 pieces of data. Or maybe they agree they won’t but you’ll use a browser that’ll read it as you do.

That said if you’re not paying for your email or anything else, you’re the product and arguably letting businesses read your email is the tradeoff, which is crazy that we ever collectively agreed to that for so long.

Isn’t that kind of the point? You don’t get very far hiding in a social setting. You’re on a public website talking to other people. Your posts should be public, comments, etc. At least people should treat all websites or apps they didn’t develop personally like they’re public. I mean you don’t really have a right to privacy in public.

And I’m not trying to say this with some malicious tone or anything but it’s just my view on it.

I think it’s fine to have theories but for a lot of the “conspiracy theorists”, it’s a philosophy, a religion, an ideology independent of reality. It requires belief, faith and a lot of mental gymnastics to believe you know the truth and everyone else is absolutely blind to it. And people build their personalities on these things and then you just get to a point where to admit you’re wrong would mentally destroy you.

Odd that the former jailbait mod is against free access to nsfw content.

The ravenous attempts to squeeze the last of the blood from the stones.
