Have you considered immunotherapy (“allergy shots”)? That was life-changing for me

I can read some of it. The text on the front of his jacket says “tsingtao”. Hope this helps!

🤔 I understand this more like “Don’t practice the religion as a way to show off. Don’t make a YouTube/TikTok/whatever video giving a homeless man $100. Just give the guy $100 and STFU about it. Also, stop posting prayers in comment sections on social media; it seems fake, and you make the rest of us look silly too.”

I’m not a bible guy though, so idk

Yeah, good point. Owners of Samsung “smart” refrigerators started seeing ads on them recently.

I’m sure there was some sort of legal terms that users had to agree to to enable that, but it still feels like a scam. Some amount of those fridge owners would not have bought the fridge if they knew there would be ads on it at any point in time.

I wish companies would at least offer a “no data collecting/selling” price option. Like, how much would they make from selling my data? Just give me the option to pay that extra amount so I can buy a vacuum without thinking about how it’s spying on me.

My phone recently offered to summarize a text message for me. I’m talking about SMS, the messaging system that already has a character limit.

Also, when I last checked the weather in my area, there was an AI summary. It was an entire sentence or two, and offered zero additional details over what was already visually indicated by the raincloud icon and the number representing the temperature.

I’m looking forward to installing GrapheneOS when their support for my phone stabilizes.

I mean places that don’t care about any laws at all. Places that might only be accessible on the dark web, etc. There’s terrible stuff out there

🤔 I’m not sure that lawmakers really understand what they’re up against. If most VPN locations all eventually require government ID for porn, then some people will likely seek porn from places/networks that are… Less legitimate.

Maybe we’ll consider electing someone who isn’t a senior citizen, next time. Three terms of the two oldest presidents in US history seems like enough.

He pays them?

Ohhh I see. I suppose it’s all about the setting. For some reason I was imagining people wearing them like a fashion statement or something 🤦🏻‍♂️

🤔 I don’t think I’ve seen a bandage on anyone’s ear in my area (at least not in any recent years), and there’s no shortage of MAGA people here. Where was this happening? It sounds like it would have been funny lol

If you’ve never used the terminal before, how do you know what to type?

Start pushing buttons. Start typing things, try pressing tab variously. Look up guides, introductions, help.

Sure, but my point is: I don’t think I’ve ever seen a terminal present those instructions when you open it. Unless it’s immediately shown in some MOTD or something, the average user isn’t going to take the time to figure it out if they don’t have to.

If my grandmother wanted to draft a letter on her computer, she’d use something that looks more like Notepad and less like Vi.

OpenSUSE always seemed underrated IMO, especially in those pre-Ubuntu days. Such a polished UX overall

Eh, I think it’s just about ease of use and discovery. When you open a terminal, it just shows a blinking cursor. If you’ve never used the terminal before, how do you know what to type?

In a graphical desktop environment, you see icons, menus, etc. If you open a GUI application, you usually see buttons and things to click, and maybe even some guidance on how to use the app.

A lot of people just want to use their computer without too much of a learning curve. Most people are not powerusers.

lmao

🤔 I wouldn’t guess that “commies” are the demographic that would go to a Kid Rock show

How did the pig use the dog?

Why? And which coins are good?

How would a surveillance state even prevent that?
