Amazed,

You might pick up some casual phrases but unless you are spending a ton of time with them breaking it down, you’re now an adult, and you will need more than the shows.

Just become undocumented in another country. 😂

Amazed,

I only see 33% off bf deals on Proton’s website. Am I missing something?

Amazed,

I see, thanks. Just a bit confusing on the wording.

Only one Proton product is steeply discounted in tiers: the VPN. For 2.5 years it’s 60% off, 1.5 years 52%, and one month is 10%.

Everything else is 33% off for 1 year.

Amazed,

Turns out she is like several comedians and actors: fine as long you didn’t know them as people. Then they disappointed.

Like most professions, there are some people who use their platform and profile for good. Then there are those who are self interested and warped.

Amazed,

Very cool timeline!

I found one error: Star Wars was released 5/25/77 not 23rd.

In a situation like this, for broad illustrative purpose, no big deal. And I really love this journey that’s been charted. However as a Sci Fi fan looking to learn, and one who knew this date immediately, though not others, I just wonder about the correctness of other data.

Amazed,

So where do you download stuff to? Would a WD Cloud storage drive work for this purpose?

Amazed,

A long time ago I used an app called Tinfoil Facebook that created a sandbox web browser style situation in the app. Gave it a nice UI and did not leave a trace. Switched to iPhone at some point. I wonder if it’s still around…

Amazed,

Wild! Thanks for checking up and following up.

Amazed,

Peace in the Middle East.

Amazed,

I feel like GoT should be taken down for the same reason then. But then I realize that maybe the last two seasons were still successful on some level.

Amazed,

Lemmy is night and day with Reddit in this. Here you find immediate compassion and unequivocal denunciation of hate and disinformation regarding Jews.

Vs Reddit, on the other hand, which runs on polarizing hot takes and hate. They also love antisemitism.

How refreshing to be here with humans.

Amazed,

Did you have any opinion on this iOS app, Helmarr? apps.apple.com/us/app/helmarr/id1638624921

Alternative to NZBClient apps.apple.com/us/app/…/id1178245637

Amazed,

Nothing if you’re already set up in Plex and your server isn’t in a data center.

Amazed,

It always sounds like Dan tried to be his friend the best way he could at the time, but Justin didn’t want to change, grow up or get better. They fed off each other probably. And meanwhile, Justin was abusing women and continuing to make everyone as miserable as he was.

It’s the difference between being an addict and recovering, and not. You just can’t condone any of that. Dan can’t be held responsible for another person’s actions, I’m sure he’s reckoned with his own ways via therapy and finding healthy relationship, and I get that trauma of having cared about and worked alongside a toxic person who was actually an Anchor, but got you career success.

But that’s the consequence. Justin crossed too many lines, had a pattern of behavior, and his victims brought a legitimate case. There’s no remorse from me.

Amazed,

Thanks for your patience. I was agreeing with you, just thinking it through out loud. Sorry if my use of “you” was confusing. One of those times it means “one” I guess.

Amazed,

Removed as I don’t know if this is allowed. But DM me if you’re interested.

Amazed,

Raise the black flag 🏴‍☠️ a moral imperative.

Don’t let them take your hard earned money, giving the people nothing of real value, and giving artists and writers nothing of real value. Selling us cheap stuff, selling our data.

Their profits don’t come back to society in meaningful ways - they fight tooth and nail, using every loophole, loopholes they lobbied for, to avoid paying taxes. To pay less tax than hard working individuals. They will hide behind “the government collects the taxes they want to collect, it’s perfectly legal”, but they made it legal. They are the ones who control the ringing of the Wall Street bell. You don’t get to be a billionaire unless you are state-sponsored.

Amazon, of all, do not need ads. Just another cost they pass along to citizens.

If you’re on the fence, then let this be the beginning of your piracy as advocacy. Piracy as resistance.

Amazed,

I thought Discovery was like that somewhat. It could have been smarter though imo. Less cinematic.

I guess the days of slower paced episodes allowing for reasoning with silence here and there are gone.

Amazed,

I’m all for variety. But honestly Marvel got the kids. Let Star Wars shift to the generations that grew up on it so they can get good writing again, and maybe R rated Vader.

Amazed,

Why are you saying that here? Likely few of us are guild. Do you mean don’t go to NYCCC?

Amazed,

I see the post image fine, btw

Amazed,

I can tell this matters, but you’re being unnecessarily antagonistic about this to a total stranger.

Amazed,

Please update us if you get the dictionary out!

Amazed,

Cake!

Amazed,

What the hell did I just read.

Amazed,

Pretty sure that’s a person, not AI. Still very WTH.

Amazed,

It’s really irritating but some websites only work on Chrome for me. They range from work related to Google Meet instances. I only use it then but yeah.

Amazed,

Exactly. But won’t someone think of the shadowy millionaires and billionaires?

Amazed, (edited )

What an ignorant hot take.

She was clearly afraid when they surrounded her and drew their weapons. I mean, my god she’s black and pregnant, and surrounded by cops harassing her for a false accusation. She was terrified it was the end. It’s not her fault. It’s theirs. And she can’t take it back. Read the damn article. It went against policy for that cop to stand in front of the car in the first place.

Further, this is why cops shouldn’t even fucking have guns. They are too dumb and quick to agro to realize they shouldn’t draw it ever. Especially for such a low stakes, stupid crime. When you start with the gun, it can only get worse.

Amazed,

Anti-choice you mean. And I don’t know but they should charge that stupid cop with everything they can.

Amazed,

What a tragedy. These dumb cops are the fucking problem. Why the hell is he standing in front of the vehicle? Is it so boring that they have to get their adrenaline flowing for a shoplifter? Unbelievable that they can murder a young mother based on an assumption and get away with it. Innocent until proven guilty my ass. A family is devastated.

Hug your loved ones.

Amazed,

That’s why people leave voicemails… you leave a verbal note of why you’re calling. And if the receiver prefers to read a text about it, several services transcribe voicemails automatically good enough to get the general gist. Or they can listen to them.

The point is that people usually don’t set out to ruin your day or misbehave, and you cannot control other people’s experience, expectations and preferences, only your own. So it’s on you to know yourself well enough to manage your boundaries appropriately with technology/tools, and possibly communication, and not to blame other people for “missteps”. When what they are doing is likely perfectly within the realm of reason to them.

Especially if they have a disability and calls are easier for them. If you have the disability, you can communicate your preferences but don’t expect people to know immediately. Set up your tech accordingly to communicate your needs. And acclimate where you can.

If things “escalate”… well… it’s likely your fault. We always need to look at our part first.

Amazed,

Absolutely. Also hit and miss accuracy wise and can turn out to be an essay, but definitely an option.

Amazed,

Great. That’s your boundary. Sounds like you have disabled them permanently. I’m saying that people should use tools, and communication when necessary, to exercise their own boundaries, like you, rather than make meanings or assumptions, or expect others to be mindreaders.

Amazed, (edited )

That and atmospheric conditions, UV. After that maybe trade news / faction conflict forecasting.

Amazed,

Taking a page out of Brave Browser’s book. So brave.

Amazed,

Shlock shock journalism to sell issues.

Amazed,

Was this sent from your Fold 4?

Amazed,

16 year club here.

Amazed,

I joined a little after you for similar reasons. ~16 years here.

Amazed,

Same.

I’ve also heard it described as competence porn. Sure, characters / species are flawed and mistakes are made, but it’s often with a purpose and meaning. And you often see individuals working together, checking in with each other, apologies, acknowledgement / recognition of impact and good deeds and other ways of life (especially when other characters aren’t believed or understood at first), respect , tolerance, parenting, working towards personal growth, reflection, social justice. Complex issues handled with care and compassion. The pace of the shows always seemed determined by the clarity- no rushing. Usually there’s a resolution, or acknowledging the lack of one (that may be satisfying).

I haven’t seen a lot of the new Trek but the older stuff did all this quite well. Combined with soothing ambient space ship noise and decent midi music…. So good for mental health.
