I bought a new car from 2023, looks like I really dodged a bullet.

Its just insane how used we are now to being on camera everywhere. Even in our own cars???

This threat is super overblown for a device that doesn’t listen to the internet. :)

If hackers get into my local network, I have bigger problems.

I want to like this game but since all planets are the same, with the same resources, what’s the point of it all…

I was hoping it would be possible to find lots of different things and trade them or build things from them, but its just the same planet over and over with different colours and random animals that don’t matter.

Don’t need security fixes. Updates always makes things worse. So I’m very happy with current version and will keep it forever.

It would give me joy to see that thing sink.

I dont have ads on my Nvidia shield but I never updated it either.

I use Nvidia shield and never update it. So far no ads.

I loved Mythbusters. It was a much happier time.

Almost as if this crisis is engineered, just like all the others.

Lets see if we also get some virus crisis, I think its about time again to scare the masses.

I think you shouldn’t buy a steam deck and instead save that money. It looks to me that there will be more and more inflation and food may start to become real expensive, specially if hormuz doesn’t open up and fertilizer can’t get through. Trump will never open Hormuz because it’s part of the American strategy to keep it closed.

We are in the stage where all the systems are being broken intentionally, so buying a steam deck now… Seems misguided. You may need that money for food. Or your parents may need it.

Im still on a computer from 2017 but luckily with upgraded memory and graphics card from before this shit started, so it runs games very good.

I will just stop using any service that has this. I dont need to use them.

Sounds like you are playing life on hard mode. Hang in there. I’ve had periods of life when it’s been difficult but it got a lot better. Sometimes random events happen, you meet someone, and things feel better.

Well Lemmy is federated so you can pick another instance. :)

Lemmy.today doesn’t block vpns, I use them sometimes.

Makes sense. :)

I guess the exercise stopped your brain from thinking and that’s why it felt good. Sometimes physical pain is much easier than emotional pain.

What do you do in the medical care system now?

I know but I trust it more than Google.

There is value in spreading out your data to different companies in different countries. All the American big tech services sends a copy of everything to the nsa.

Maybe telegram doesn’t. Who knows. Maybe they are being a bit more difficult at least.

Only profits and power matters to these people. They will happily destroy peoples lives. Sam Altman is an obvious psychopath. Zuckerberg is less open with his real thoughts after he said “dumb fucks”, but equally ruthless. Musk lacks empathy and is autistic and doesn’t understand human emotions. Trump is a narcissist.

These are the people who drives Ai.

Well, I think its different for different users, with different economy and different motivations.

Kagi has 70000 paying members, enough to be profitable without any ads or tracking. Since the results are literally Googles results but without ads, AI results or tracking, it’s worth paying for for some people who can.

Ive been a paying member since 2023 and I feel good about supporting alternatives to Google with some lunch money. :) Because of me and the other users, there is a quality search engine that makes us happy and makes a profit without ads.

But we are all different. When I was a teenager I wouldn’t have paid for this. Had no money and wanted my money for other things.

It doesn’t and when you discover that, try Kagi.

People here love things to be free and in doing so, they recommend worse search engines.

It’s a good idea but I think many professions are killing the love people have for it. For example, I liked tech until it become full of meetings, scrum, bad managers, stress, reorgs, and so on.
