License Plates, Vin Numbers clearly available on the dash, Tire Sensors, Bluetooth MAC, WIFI MAC, Cellular IDs for most even if you don’t pay for the service.

It’s an interesting thing to point out, but we’re mostly driving around with much higher power sensors than the pressure sensors.

What budget? It’s all just debt.

I can’t speak to the ease of the swap, but I do know lenovo is super great for letting you order parts.

I had to swap out the cooling on one of our newer legions at work and their parts game is on point.

next one comes on pink paper, then the following on red paper.

I already read it. That’s how i came up with what I wrote man.

You go re-read it and tell me

What counts as “minimum”

How necessity is measured

Whether “minimum” refers to data fields, granularity, frequency, or retention

They don’t cover shit about ANY of that.

It says that OS developers must track users or be fined, so they will track users.

Explicitly bars OS devs from sending more data than explicitly necessary to meet 1

The statute does not define:

What counts as “minimum”

How necessity is measured

Whether “minimum” refers to data fields, granularity, frequency, or retention

Whether metadata (e.g., device ID, timestamp, API call logs) is included or excluded

This legislature calls App Providers and developers to track people and barely even gives lipservice to what is allowed.

We don’t want our OS’s tied to our identities. This does not explicitly forbid that

You’re identifying yourself lock-step to the government to run your computer. That telemetry is now theirs. Everything you ever do on that computer is now tracked or trackable to you and stored in a giant data center, probably eventually into a trained model of you.

You look at news about protestors, you leave a scathing review about a business supporting ICE, you post anonymously on a web forum that you’re displeased with the administration, All that needs to happen in the current climate is an executive order and the next time you go to update your passport or hop on a flight, you’re being detained as a terrorist.

Giving them this all willingly is a horrible idea and they will eventually use it against you.

There’s a reason they’re fought; they have legendary bite force.

I rescued one once that was over 100 lbs and could hold his own weight and hang from a rope, he was also able to climb a 6 foot fence.

Raised poorly or starving the’re dangerous AF

Raised by you in your ‘pack’ they’re dopy lazy happy sausages, as long as nothing threatens you or yours. Ours took cues from me, if I wasn’t mad or anxous about he wouldn’t even lift his head when someone came in the door. When someone came up drunk beating on the wrong door late at night, I was scared to open the door enough he could see out, he was definitealy fearless and angry.

I’ve only been around a couple that have been poorly handled, our guy was a bait dog at one point, he came to us all scarred.

Get them a really protective pit bull :) Train it not to go too far and heard the kid back home.

bonus, belly rubs and pitty leans.

yup, you can find cheaper, but it’s closer to life support.

Control Women, you control 50% of the population.

Parents: We’re being oppressed! All those non-whites are taking our jobs and causing all the crime

Shitler JR: But uncle jimmy is in prison for diddling kids

Parents: It was the foreigners that drove him to it, god is punishing us for their acts.

Shitler JR: WE WILL BE FREEE

They know who he raped children with, that’s their blackmail cache.

They don’t know who the weak link in the chain is; that’s going to end up being blackmail against them.

I don’t like daylight savings time either, but I’m also ill-equipped to do fuck all about it.

Burned disks, you’ll probably lose some over 30 years, i’ve lost a few in 20 years, most are still readable.

Poorly pressed disks, you might lose one here or there. I had a two where the aluminum was poorly sealed and flaked off the label side.

I have hundreds of DVD’s in the 20-30 year range and have never had a problem reading any of them that weren’t scratched save the couple that were lacking in top lacquer.

I sorted out my DVD’s Kept the collectors stuff, moved the cheaper but beloved stuff to binders and threw away the chaff i bought for a dollar a disk when blockbuster went under.

I can keep my entire original collection easily on 2 hard drives these days

Knowing what we know now, it could be attempted atonement. I’ve seen lots of old people who were assholes their whole life being real nice trying to get into heaven.

Ohh yeah, best to stay out of echo chambers when you aren’t of the same voice.

To be fair, They’re not entirely wrong. It will straight up make a horror show if you don’t keep an eye on it and even if it succeeds, it’s nothing to really cheer about because it will eventually fuck over a LOT of people.

You can’t just tell it to make you a browser, insert $20k in tokens and walk away, but you absolutely can get it to make a multi player online party game or make a websocket client/server/admin to manage a dozen pc’s hooked into a video wall.

The world runs on lip service. I don’t love it either, but we’re here

Companies have been doing this for decades, maybe centuries. They would hire a ‘secret shopper’ to come in, order something, and fill out a checklist for corporate. It was done in department stores and fast food chains, any place that was a franchise where theire name was on the line. Some places hired companies to check up on people, some places just hired individuals. The fast-food chain I used to work at hired a neighbor paid them in free food.

Managers make people say it, and reports check to make sure managers are doing their jobs.

The really cool part about how we used to do it was we didn’t waste fuckloads of electricity/water to make sure managers were doing their jobs.
