I transcribe posts over on c/microblogmemes along with whatever else i feel like transcribing

I would also never let corporate IT manage a device, e. g. a laptop connected to my private network at home.

If you ever must, buy a new laptop. And use it on a guest wifi network. Use it as you would a work laptop, nothing personal on it

It would be an enemy aircraft hovering above the trees with a flamethrower, threatening to burn them down

Not fediverse, but a personal website on Neocities is customizable

Vote because lives depend on it

I mean I'm sure some ace people like to engage in sexual activity. Sexual attraction and libido are different.

it's like they just selected lips and cheeks and slid the "Reds" slider down

A few decades from now we'll plant this meme on Mars on the first manned mission lol.

"We're a very inaccessible and hostile webpage. Turn back now."

A sad reminder that transphobia and other forms of hate affect us all, not just the ones who are primarily targeted.

Worse case scenario, we gotta make an extension that detects the ad UI and blanks the screen and mutes the audio until its over

Their AI chatbot has a name suspiciously close to Aryan, and it's trained to deny the holocaust.

Imagine if this passes and the next day the entire school staff dresses up as furries in protest. "Okay Timmy you see that person with the fox outfit on? That's your teacher today."

Does it actually tell you that seconds on the clock takes more power?

Edit: Lol it actually says "(uses more power)"

We should produce less stuff.

The crazy part to me is that he tried a carrot and it didn't open for it. Yet he thought it was a good idea to try his finger which it about the same size.

We should make a secret agenda. On Tuesday, all the trans people will meet up for taco night.

Omg I actually had this same thought the other day and wrote it down.

I just thought about how cool it would be to not need to sleep. You could have a whole 8-or-so hours to do whatever you want. But then I realized that if we didn't need to sleep we would likely be required to work longer hours or be otherwise productive during those 8-or-so hours. It's crazy how arbitrary productivity really is.

where skibidi?

Clock

Clock needs an update. We are getting the update ready for you...

A stopwatch icon is shown.

Oh yes the notification light was incredible. I had one on my Pixel 2 XL. I just switched phones like a week ago to a Nord N200 and it doesn't have one. Not too big of a deal though.

I wish phones still had IR blasters but those are long gone. It would be awesome to control my Edifier speakers with my phone as a remote control.

Edifier RC10E (Unofficial remote control for Edifier R1280DB speakers) https://f-droid.org/packages/ir.remote.edifier.rc10e/

Edit: Also how about a good camera? All mid range and low end phones today have like 3 or 4 mediocre cameras because it looks fancier then having 1 nice camera.

There were more yes's, but they were cut out of the video. However, Oliver mentions after the video what amount of them said yes and what amount said no. Most of them did say "no" though.

Aren't all jets tracked?

So if I really hate someone, I can just put their address into the Charter Spectrum website?

Free shipping, but at that point you should question why you are buying so much from amazon in the first place

I guess it's interesting but this seems to have minimal use case. For those with reactions to injections and such it's useful, but it seems much easier to use a needle in most cases. Also that article claims that it "doesn't damage the skin", but I don't see why a vaccine would cause any meaningful damage to the skin in the first place.

Edit: Okay I'm seeing now how this would be useful for more frequent injections like insulin and such if it can be used like that.
