You know what never has this problem? Good old fashioned tooth brushes that you can get in a 6 pack for like $8.

Oh this is cool ASF. Thank you for sharing it!

I mean welcome to the internet, where anonymity allows for people to be absolute cunts to each other.

Ohhhh I’m so downloading this. Ty!

Oh no! I bought a phone before I knew everything there is to know about how wretched Google is, and how deep the surveillance state runs! The horror! Let me just waste a $1k purchase!

Yeah, sorry, I could have worded that better. I use o launcher pro (but the free version works great). There are others, that’s just the one I use. No icons, no notification badges, nada. I set my phone to grayscale unless I’m taking a photo.

All of these people buying dumb phones instead of just downloading a text launcher on their phone and calling it a day. Like I’m not about to go waste money on a dumb phone when I can (1) set up a text based launcher and (2) uninstall Instagram. I have a perfectly good Samsung, and I’ve switched to using it more as a tool than a source of dopamine.

Too many people fall for the hype of these objects bc it’s easier than taking accountability, and easier than taking the initiative to do something on your own.

Looks like the DoD / DoW will be cutting its ties with Scouting America then, if what that weirdo said was true.

I genuinely had no idea. There’s tons of people I follow on there that are most certainly not Nazis, and that’s the only place they publish stuff :/

On one hand, it literally is as easy as “eat less”. On the other, this is spoken like someone who’s never struggled with anything like this, and you sound like a real ass. Bc you’re right, it is as easy as “eat less”, but if that were easy, wouldn’t everyone be a healthy weight, then? Obesity wouldn’t even be a concept, if eating less was an easy thing to do.

You’re being obtuse on purpose. Whatever. I will not have sympathy for you when the clankers take your job next.

AI in healthcare and science has been a boon, but other than that, fuck it. Absolutely not. I will not support the job stealer. The water guzzler. The environment destroyer.

Idk I think they should try pulling themselves up by their bootstraps instead of accepting a government handout

This is probably going to be an unpopular opinion, but, imma say it anyway. If what you’re using now works for you and your family and people are happy with continuing to use it, then keep using it. There is no ethical consumption under capitalism. You have to pick your battles, and pick what you spend your time and your energy on. I personally don’t know anything about tidal, I made the switch to YouTube music bc I already pay for YouTube premium, and I used their import tool for my liked songs and my playlists. Very easy, seamless experience for me, only a couple songs “couldn’t be found” or YouTube picked the “wrong” version (like it picked a live version over a studio recording, for example).

But if what you’re using is working out … Idk man, might just be easier to keep using it. Esp since you’re making it sound like you simply don’t want to actually switch and you’re starting to cave to peer pressure.

A lot of services offer playlist imports now

Company name is: Trajector Medical

I was always under the impression that most of these companies that claim to help you navigate difficult paperwork (such as VA benefits or Medicare paperwork, etc) were either scams, or, they did what they advertised for a steep cost, and thus, should be avoided at all costs.

Oh that’s not weird at all. Totally normal for a government to attack the press like this on an official scale. Completely average.

The algorithm recommends things it thinks you’ll like or have watched before. So if its recommending AI slop, it’s because you’re watching AI slop already. People just refuse to take the time to “train” your algorithm (and this isn’t just YouTube, it’s all algorithmic based platforms). You like / dislike stuff, hide things, give feedback, etc, and eventually you only really see the stuff you actually want to see. Sure some things slip through but 🤷‍♀️ I use YouTube and will continue to only bc the people I watch don’t post anywhere else, unfortunately.

What do we use instead of Firefox? I don’t want to participate in the AI bullshit, and I honestly really like Firefox and use it across all my devices :(

How is this an attack on another user? I am genuinely asking. Like the screenshot you posted, I mean.
