Dyskolos

Yes. We both hate cooking and also, at best, can heat up pasta.

I hate wasting money on useless bad stuff and take a looooong time to decide on investments starting at one buck. That defines a cheap ass, does it not? Investing in people though is never wasted money. At least to me. One less person that needs to endure a horrible boss. And we (and him) get nice food.

Cheapass Genx here. We’re admittedly too lazy to cook ourselves and prefer to spend that time on hobbies instead.

But food-delivery got so bad AND expensive here (Germany) that we switched to hiring a cook instead. He passionately loves his work, we love the food, everyone’s happy.

Hehe, nah, germany. But I like my privacy and don’t like gifting away my data for free :)

Why the attack? I’m against this. I might benefit from capitalism but i must not like it. And I do not. It’s a shitty pyramid-scheme resulting in exactly shit like this. Many brands (that i know of…) do not put physically already existing hardware behind a paywall. Yet. But in the end, they all will do, because people don’t care, or worse: don’t see the implications it does and just accept.

As said, i now drive a pre-enshittification-car with no such shit. Might they still exist somehow in the future.

Absolutely. But, as usual, we all let it happen, it will happen more, and in the end it’s the total default for everything. Capitalism always wins over ignorance or apathy.

Because, it’s already built into my car, i already paid for the car, the whole transaction is concluded. Paying in hindsight for a part of it, that is already there, is not really justified at all. If they built the car without one, and would have to add it later, then it would make sense. So if it would be more expensive to have my car explicitly built without this feature, why does it suddenly cost money when i decide i want it later?

The signal-broadcast all around everywhere and just YOU paying is simply for the fact they they can’t route them specifically to just YOUR house. It might sound equally unfair but it’s a clear distinction based on technical impossibility.

And that’s when I switched a while ago from a modern Bentley to an “ancient” mechanical car from a past long forgotten. Every electrical gadget is local, and it just has android auto (dedicated isolated phone just for the car) with a fake google account for navigation. Everyone thinks we’re broke lol, but I’m so fed with this shit. Even a silly backlight went from 5 bucks for a replacement-bulb to 1500 bucks for the whole led-package. Parts alone, add the mechanic and the many hours needed.

Heard that all brands do this shit though. Like even disabling things remotely that are there but you didn’t subscribe to. This is bonkers.

I only have one fake google account on an isolated VM with dedicated VPN. For the rare cases it’s unavoidable for something. Whoever actually uses gmail, will get what they pay for.

But this is probably anti-AI-ragebait anyway.

“Im president of the USA”…ah fuck.

No live animals, sorry sir. NEXT!

“Store implemented basic store-feature. Exclusive news coverage at 11!”

Well I bought one exclusive (at that time) coz I’m a sucker for zombie coop (I even got a fake CC just for that, they don’t need my data). But before and after that I bought thousands at steam and gog. I thought i was the one legit customer there 😁

“They” are supposed to do and be many things, which they usually do or are the opposite of. But covertly.

That’s a nice “AI” summary. Yet it’s factually wrong for the most part. DID does exist, it’s real, it can even be proven physically nowadays. This therapy-induced argument is just silly. You can’t “create” a DID on a healthy adult person. And it is only “created” in young kids enduring exceptionally hard trauma.

What was correct is “hard to diagnose”. But not because the said reasons but simply because “it” doesn’t want to be detected. It’s a highly evolved and clever survival-mechanism. The whole “idea” of it is to make the physical entity survive by all means. Situations so unimaginably unbearable that the mind just…splits, so another part can still function. Also the persons with DID often don’t even know they have it, or have a hard time to accept it. And a harder time to accept it system-wide. Maybe this is where the silly “therapy-induced” comes from. Before a diagnosis they just “function”. Outsiders rarely notice anything, even therapists.

Also, kid rapists (pedos) often knowingly induce a split to their advantage. There is enough evidence to support this, but it’s even accessible to the public. E.g. the leak of the major pedo-forum.

Just because something is so hard to imagine and the evil that’s necessary to create it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. It is sad to the core that it HAS to exist, but good that it does. It’s easier to swipe it away with the therapy-induced argument than to face the demons that put it into this world.

Anyhow. I just couldn’t let that stand. But I also don’t wanna discuss it. Just leave you a friendly advice to reevaluate your position. If it is yours and not just copy-pasta from AI. I’m a mono BTW.

I guess not, but I wouldn’t be as infuriated as I should be 😁

Well, you kinda deserve it when you buy such a thing and also live in a country that allows customer-abuse to the fullest extent of the law. AKA “land of the free (corpos)”.

Ads on a fridge lol. I haven’t seen an ad in my home for 30yrs.

I don’t use google. I just assume now it’s some funny popculture-reference 😁

Depends on the level of criminal though. Pedo-networks surely know to evade the law. See e.g. the major pedo-forum which exists for way Over a decade and is full to the brim.

I also doubt that anyone really cares about some street-level-thug. Anyone seriously slinging would surely also just ditch surface apps. If they’d even use those phones at all. I wouldn’t.

Damn, that would make sense…
