His talking points aren’t even really interesting. AI is overhyped, companies don’t like to lose IP and data to AI companies, etc.

For me it’s also a price issue, after my streaming more expensive year on year at some point I just stopped and paid for VPN and Usenet.

Yeah I use it for that, I don’t use channels or stories etc. Would be nice if I could convince more people to signal.

I think what will hurt them much more is the EU realizing the danger in dependence on American tech like Microsoft, and slowly replacing it with (open source) alternatives.

This isn’t really new, when I was young a lot of kids wanted to be a pro footballer or singer.

Worked with a guy that would always say I’m refactoring X and it would usually give us weird issues and bugs. So after a while the team started calling it refucktoring

We got the second kid when the first one was almost 4. It was pretty rough, we where just getting back our sleep, and went in 2+ years of irregular sleep. She is 2 and a half now and thankfully sleep is getting much better.

If you have a kid and thinking about a second one, I would recommend don’t wait 3+ years, or wait 5+ years so you have a bit of time to recover.

I was just watching this classic video, wich is a great example of the meme

Yeah it works more like how cracks used to work back in the day.

Exactly it has to start somewhere, better than no action at all

Also delete the apps and use live chat to get them to delete your account.

What? I’m not sure how it is in the US but in many countries zoomers (men) are very right wing. These are the guys that watch rogan and Andrew Tate.

Did that but also removed my account, I was not an active subscriber, but after logging in they push you towards subscribing. AFAIK you can only delelte your account via live chat, be sure to mention Art. 17 GDPR Right to erasure (‘right to be forgotten’).

I started with voyager, was that wrong?

Yeah this is where the EU has a problem, because our intelligence agencies don’t really have great alternatives. For police we can probably just go without palantir

Yeah we (Europeans) should also constantly keep fighting for our privacy and freedom. Thanks for sharing the link I’m glad the Netherlands is against it.

Americans when you talk about gun control: NOOO mah freedom, I need it to protect myself from the government.

Americans when you tell them a private company is going to monitor and track every citizen, basically making a dystopian police state: I have nothing to hide so it’s fine.

I feel Europe is basically the other way around, less guns, but more privacy.

We clash! While we try to squeeze every last bit out of our hardware and tools, you are trying to keep us in check and not installing random shit because it might make us 0.1% faster

I never had a blackberry, but my HTC Desire Z was peak typing. You slide the keyboard out and have a full keyboard. I typed very fast on that thing, every phone I got after that sucked at typing.

Let me give you one, kids try to explore topics out of curiosity. They are probably not going to look up someone torturing animals, because they don’t want to see that. Kids usually look up and explore things they are ready for. Also “kids” is a pretty diverse group, a 5 year old and a 15 year old kid are very different.

For real young kids parents should monitor online behavior anyway. For teens, how is life this different than looking at a playboy or a porn tape. Teens have been doing that forever, the people creating these laws probably did that when they where kids.

It’s probably a lot better to let kids (teens) explore nudity and sex in a safe environment, instead of letting them go unsupervised in places that ignore the law.

It’s basically the same argument with drugs, offering legal options vs. going to a dealer and possibly getting much more dangerous drugs mixed in.
