If Christians actually read the (entire) bible there’d be a lot less Christians.

That looks sick, but it costs about as much as the Steam Deck itself. Maybe if I win a lottery.

Lutris too. As far as ease of use goes, nothing beats SteamOS. Nothing. It’s the closest to fully featured plug&play I’ve ever seen, it all just works.

It’s perfect. It does everything I want it to do and much more, and at a very salient price point. I have one complaint and that is that after ~30 mins of play my arms start to ache. Ergonomics could be improved, and almost certainly will be in the future.

Lemmy isn’t monolithic. They’d have to hit every instance separately. The big ones like lemmy.world are a prime target though.

I doubt it, since all it ostensibly does is summarize info the user has released freely. How that info is stored and retained exactly might be up for debate though.

*Have been made long ago and are being constantly updated.

Snowden already warned us about this over a DECADE ago. Their scopes and powers will have increased exponentially. And that was under ‘trustworthy’ administration. I guarantee there’s a type of system in place that flags people before they do anything, just on pattern recognition alone. Of course, they can’t use that system as a legal basis for anything, so they don’t and use parallel constructions instead.

Anyone who thinks “this is coming” hasn’t been paying attention. We’re already there and beyond.

1. People who value their privacy (or “have something to hide”) have a need of a service that provides anonymity
2. This turns said service in the ideal place to start any and all surveillance because your subjects have already self-selected for being “interesting” (especially if you intend to go after low hanging fruit)
3. Therefore I must conclude that people using VPNs and TOR, no matter how legitimate their reasons, are in fact advertising that they have something to hide which current status quo is very interested in knowing…

That and “today’s youth is worthless” are timeless experiences across all cultures and eras of history.

I am using three drives on that list. Uninstalled KB5063878 and blocked updates for over a month.

Coffee was “discovered” around the 9th century AD, so I’m gonna have to call shenanigans on this one.

Eventually we’ll have “defensive” and “offensive” llm’s managing all kinds of electronic warfare automatically, effectively nullifying each other.

Meh. Paypal deserves everything bad that happens to it. Barely used it in the last few years. Definitely do NOT keep funds on there unless you’re okay with just losing them.

The enshittification/rent seeking continues. Nothing is sacred.
