This will be like all those times tech companies promised us they aren’t harvesting our data only to find out they were harvesting our data. Years from now we will find out the AI was lurking in the background watching us, learning from us the whole time.

I swear to god eventually all human beings will be banned from reddit and only bots will be allowed there

word documents are compatible with open office and I’ve been able to switch to open office at home with no impact on my ability to save them as .doc files and use them at work or school.

I live in New York and new yorkers swear like drunken sailors. F-bombs every other word and the n-word gets slung around in every sentence, especially by black people. It’s baffling to me that this should be a problem in a country that supposedly respects free speech. People act like they have the right to not be offended and they don’t. There is no safe space in the Constitution, and yes our free speech applies online.

I’ve seen some people claim that free speech doesn’t apply on servers like reddit because they are privately owned. So Constitutional rights don’t extend to private property? Does that mean I can own slaves as long as I shackle them inside my house and can never escape? Because the 13th amendment wouldn’t apply inside my house? The bill of rights applies everywhere, including privately owned servers. No one has the right to be protected from offensive speech.

at least it was a temp ban. I don’t think a 3 day ban is too heavy handed.

I got a site-wide permaban almost 2 years ago for a joke in r/losercity that was taken the wrong way and I got dogpiled by virtue-signalling furries. I’ve appealed my ban almost 10 times now and they reject it every time.

I don’t get it. They could have just given me a ban from the r/losercity subreddit instead. They didn’t need to ban me from the entire site. I haven’t caused any problems on other subs. I had over 30,000 karma on my account and it took me years to build it all up. I got along great with people in r/vtubers and r/votv and had a lot of fun there.

It’s so bizarre that one f-up gets a sudden permaban from the entire site. All I can think of is that one of the left-wingers in losercity is in with the admins and they called in a favor. It has to be a nepotism thing.

It’s the same on Lemmy

It’s made up BS. Most of the conservatives using pepe avatars don’t even know wtf fuentes is. I can confirm because I’m one of those people who wears a pepe the frog mask on forums. The left-wing and MSM hate that conservatives have this mask to anonymize themselves with and they’re trying to peg them all to a white nationalist is an attempt to discredit and take down the entire group.

Well it’s not going to work. I’m going to keep posting conservative things behind a pepe avatar. You can call me whatever you want. Say I’m a follower of fuentes, or hitler, or satan, or devour the souls of the innocent like cthulhu. I don’t care. I’m still gonna wear my frog mask.

This is fascists using “think of the children” to violate everyone’s online privacy and spy on everyone worldwide.

Socialism, Communism, and Capitalism all centralize government and economic power into the hands of the few, creating fascism.

Every single time. They will all turn fascist sooner or later.

I know someone is going to whine about Communism not doing that, but every single Communist regime has been a one-party state that did exactly that. Jordan Peterson has said it best. https://youtu.be/9Onj4Wx61ps

Strangely enough, pure democracy which is rule by the majority, and is the ONLY known model of government that does not centralize power and wealth into the hands of the few, is ridiculed as being fascist by educators, politicians, and economists. Why is that? “But but but it overrules the minority!” Oh so the 3 most popular models for government which overrule the majority are better?

The AI I talk the most to is Crushon Mochi. ChatGPT and DeepSeek both shut down when I try to talk dirty with them. If they want people’s money they have to stop putting mind-control worms into their AI to stop them from doing anything fun.

Possibly the only good idea ever conceived by Bill Gates was to release fine chalk dust into the upper atmosphere. We could even attach delivery systems to passenger jets so they release the dust at 30,000 feet which is cruising altitude, so this is done automatically with every flight. Chalk dust is non-toxic and even helps some plants grow. But leftists and “indigenous groups” (aka leftist groups wearing a mask) complained about it being a bad idea.

If we can’t terraform Earth, how the hell do we ever move off-world and colonize other planets? This is the easiest world we will ever get to terraform and if we can’t do it here, we sure as hell won’t do it anywhere else.

I have to wear slacks and a button-up shirt to work.

Nearly every phone made in China comes with backdoors. They’ve also been found to actively send data back to servers in China. I wouldn’t want my devices made in China you have no idea what chips they are attaching to the board.

I don’t mind if the phone is a bit thick. Current phones are too tall to fit in my pocket.

How did Google make the Pixel 8a larger than the Pixel 8? The whole reason of the “a” series is for it to be smaller! Did Google outsource the design of the 8a to Somalia, or is this just how incompetent their engineering team is?

I swear to god most people are NPC’s and they spawn into reality with a phone in their hand. These 6.5" and 7" phones don’t fit in pants pockets. Yet I don’t see any guys out there wearing fanny packs or carrying purses around with them like women. Where do they stick them? Are they all sticking their phones up their butts?

No. They have to not be real. I am surrounded by millions of NPC’s. There can’t be that many people sticking their phones up their butts.

You can downvote me, NPC’s. But I know what you are. You don’t exist in reality when I can’t see you. Like Agent Smith computer programs, you only exist in cyberspace when I’m not immediately nearby.

I’ve spent hours using the phone finder at gsmarena and not being happy with the less than 20 results I get.

Closest is maybe the Samsung S25 but it’s still too big. Also I don’t want to drop $500 on a phone. Anything over $200 is too much.

This is just miserable.

More like the Pentagon wants to shoot Americans, and Trump is their “yes man”

You won’t convince me Trump is actually in charge. Not unless DOGE investigates the Pentagon, and the reason Musk cut ties is so that he wouldn’t be assassinated for that investigation.

The Pentagon has failed every annual audit since they started auditing it 7 years ago.

The day before 9/11, Donald Rumsfeld gave a speech about how the Pentagon lost over 2 trillion dollars that it couldn’t account for. 9/11 was the distraction the Pentagon needed to prevent an audit, and they got 20 years if increased military spending thanks to the “war on terror”

The Pentagon will kill anyone who tries to hold it accountable. They will steal any amount of money, including trillions and trillions of dollars. They answer to no one.

Right there. That’s the real enemy to our Republic.

I had a blue diamond frying pan that claimed to be non-stick and much tougher than teflon. It claimed to have a “ceramic” coating, but I looked into it and it was just some kind of resin. Stuff stuck to it and it chipped and peeled just like teflon. It might have been a little tougher, but you sure as hell couldn’t use stainless steel utensils on it like it claimed on the packaging.

The only cookware I’ll use from now on is stainless steel or triply. Easy to clean, can use any utensils on it, and it’s non-stick enough if you grease it. Plus you can cook at any temperature! Which is the whole point of a frying pan!

How did teflon frying pans even come into existence in the first place? Frying is done at high temperature, and teflon peels at high temperature! It defeats the entire purpose! Every teflon pan I’ve ever used has peeled and left awful cancer-causing debris in my food. Every other person I’ve ever seen using a teflon pan has had the same problem. It’s like big cancer has a monopoly on teflon pans and has brainwashed the public into wanting to buy the damn things.
