Elections are around the corner. Get out there and vote for a change

Up vote for Hawkins Cheezies

Mmmm

Imprisoned != house arrest

Thank you!

Glued their hands to the road. My forth thought was solvent which might give them chemical burns. Then I thought leaving them there for days in the sun to sit in their own filth.

Where is this from. Any links to add?

Hmmm Is that why I don’t have any in the middle of my forearm.

Our name is cooler

“Toonie”

What choices do we have. That’s the problem

Yes!! I’m not crazy. Someone else saw it. <Takes a deep breadth> It’s going to be a good day

Only the lucky ones

Option that philosophy was founded there. Where was it and why the distinction between the two.

Plato and Socrates were Greek but the Greek culture was spread around. Ex Archimedes was from Sicily.

They just invented the idea (10 year fanboy here) :(

Our company has bought into the whole onedrive/teams/ Microsoft family.

They’ll do what the IT guy says but that first time copilot popped up grrr

For dictatorships yes it is. For the rest of us maybe not. Something needs to change in how we allow companies to manipulate us and all for profit. See Myanmar

On a separate note I think the social media giants are the ones we need to block. Specifically Facebook and any others that use algorithms to feed tailored posts to you. These companies shouldn’t be allowed to hide behind free speech protections. Their “speech” is processed and tailored to audiences for corporate profit.

Apps make money from you staying on their apps and interacting. It can be through comments, clicks or simple by pausing to look at posts. Adds are either fed to you or you become the material for adds through data scraping.

The longer you spend on the app the more revenue is generated. Therefore it f they can send you tailored media to engage you more you’ll stay. The longer you stay the more adds you see. However things aren’t as simple as they used to be. Some advertisers aren’t selling consumer products, they’re selling ideas, political parties and options. Their methods are becoming highly organized and they use a lot of psychology to do it. I believe it’s Stanford who offers a masters program for app design along these lines. Netflix did a documentary on it.

Algorithms seem to have no morals, they’ll feed you anything to keep you engaged or increase your engagement. There are class action lawsuits against Facebook over promoting genocide. All for clicks.

These companies shouldn’t be allowed to hide behind free speech protections. Their “speech” is processed and tailored to audiences for corporate profit. If it’s wrong to yell fire in a crowded theatre then how is it allowed to push hate speech using advanced psychological tools designed to sell these ideas to us.

I know people will cry “free speech” but this is t a bad idea.

We all know Russia china and North Korea run propaganda campaigns on the west. Maybe a west (EU Canada UK) only firewall would work. Maybe block the US and some of their shit

What’s 50 significant for

I her make it all paywall and subscription based. Probably laced with spy tools, new terms of use every few months followed by deactivation for some dumb reason
