Exactly. He intends to let scammers scam.

I think it’s legit just taxes he’s trying to avoid, but it could be something bigger too.

Daily reminder, you have freedom of speech in that the government won’t do anything about your speech, but you don’t have freedom from speech. Going out and protesting your employer and their business relationships can and will get you fired, no matter how just the cause.

But does it whip the llamas ass?

In other news, Discord was still doing business in Russia… Cool

I’m currently running through it on a switch. If they can port it to the fucking switch of all things, I don’t see why not PC. Wild that they are finally doing it like a decade n a half later

Member back when you used to be optimistic about the upcoming innovation? Now the only “innovation” is enshitification.

It’s supposed to be scaled as a percentage of income / net worth. Whether that’s true in practice however is debatable

If you’re a female, you are going to get out of the car to get in the street and hang out with these 2 males harassing you on the street? She’s definitely safer in the car. The 2 males are keeping her prisoner in the car against her will. the car cannot leave, and she cannot get out.

Definitely a false imprisonment charge though

I used to have a Miracast dongle and it worked like a champ. No wifi needed and it did exactly what I wanted. I always thought it was cool, but it never really caught on. Android killed off support a few years ago. You can still use it with Windows, but I mostly use a Chromecast now for convenience.

I agree to an extent, but while I’m not going to speak for everyone as my situation is unique, my role is as an individual contributor, and my role requires absolutely 0 teamwork. I have a set of tasks that need to be done by EOD, and so does the rest of my team. We don’t collaborate at all. When we were in office, the only benefit was we all sat together, so you could ask a team member for assistance if you got stuck on a unique issue.

During Covid, they redid our office. There are no assigned seats anymore. So when they do ask us to come in, I work at a random desk by myself. It’s absolutely stupid. I’m wasting gas and time driving to the office just to make an appearance to stroke management’s ego so they can physically see me in person.

I have no idea how Samsung phones are so popular. They are aesthetically pleasing I guess, but their insistence on bloat ware has driven me away since day 1. I almost got the 1 bloat free phone they ever made which was the S4 Google Play edition, but opted for the HTC One Google Play edition instead. Since then, every phone has been loaded with unremovable garbage apps that you can’t get rid of without rooting. I refuse to buy a phone with garbage apps that no one uses with the sole purpose of data collection. Say what you will about Google (I know) but at least their apps are helpful.

My mom has a Samsung Smart TV that recently kept turning on by itself to play their shitty TV+app which was pre installed on the TV, and never once opened (not on purpose at least) by anyone in the household. Apparently this is a common issue. I had to disconnect it completely from the internet, perform a factory reset, sign her Samsung account out, and plug in a Chromecast to replace the UI of the TV just to get everything working for her, and not waste electricity by having the TV randomly turn on every 30 minutes. It’s one thing if they were bloating their UI with good apps, but forcing a bunch of absolutely useless apps onto us is ridiculous.

Never have I ever eaten lobster

I replaced my mom’s can lights with LEDs and I was an early adopter. I believe it was ~2012-15 ish. Not a single one has died. The only reason any of them fail now is poor quality and / or planned obsolescence. The tech itself is solid AF. I had some bulbs I got from IKEA for $1. Those have failed countless times.

Glad I’m not the only one

I have one of the ones that can be jailbroken. One day I’ll do it

Is that an actual quote?

Yeah, but on a car with electric locks, and an electric lift gate which I’m assuming yours has (could be mechanical, but most cars these days are crossovers, so I’m assuming that’s what you have) a dead battery means you can’t open the trunk latch. It’s absolutely a stupid place to put it. You either have to jump it to open the hatch, or go over the back seats while taking out the floor panels to get to it. My own car, the battery is under the hood, but there’s 2 plastic pieces that need to come off via push clips, and if you’re stranded and don’t have something to push in the clips and pull them out, you’re going to have to rip the piece off to get to the battery and break the clips or the plastic piece. It’s fairly simple, but that plastic serves almost no purpose.
