Can someone explain the meaning of the name and the people building this project please?
You’re trusting how information is filtered and funneled to you with a search tool, but a change to take lightly. Google sucks, but they have a lot to lose, a lot of eyes on them and I know generally their base motivations.
I reject your original false premise that “so many” are actually doing this.
I have faith that pro-Palestinian folks are on the whole, rational and empathetic enough to know that trump will end the comfort, and even lives, of so many groups of vulnerable people, decidedly inclusive of the Palestinians there. We elect Harris today so that our democracy lives another day. That preserves our rights to fill the streets in protest and interrupt commerce until Israel’s genocide ends WHEN Kamala actually has the power to stop it, after being sworn in.
Until then, we stay vocal and we place the pressure to end this where it firmly belongs - Netanyahu and the Israelis instigating and enabling this historically horrible thing.
“We’re going to have supervision,” Ellison said. “Every police officer is going to be supervised at all times, and if there’s a problem, AI will report that problem and report it to the appropriate person. Citizens will be on their best behavior because we are constantly recording and reporting everything that’s going on.”
And if we entertained the idea that this was true and the core focus of this idea (it’s not) what do we think the chances are that the “appropriate person” will be one of two things:
Another cop
A subscription service digital surveillance company with that cop as a client that they report back to for “internal investigation”, as long as the bill is paid.
Emboldened oligarch in a plutocracy.
But also kleptocracy and really a kakistocracy disguised outwardly as an aristocracy or neo-monarchy as Raskin said.
Outside of just saying “America” or “Capitalism” How do we combine all of this into one satisfying, effective term?
You just risk staying in limbo if not direct/literal effigy IMO… All young males in general have the earned reputation of typically being oblivious of expressed female romantic advances (just search Reddit, you’ll see 300 posts speaking to this per day). On top of that general difficulty, you have the compounding factor of their atypical mental processing.
So do what you think is right. Hope it works out for you both.
This is horrible. I’m going to download a bunch of these PDFs so that there are less copies available for other dishonest people to download.
I’m doing my part!
The nuerodivergent part suggests you’re going to just need to be direct.
“I really enjoy our friendship, it’s important to me. I want to make sure we keep that friendship regardless, but I’ve also realized I might be developing more romantic feelings for you that I’d like to explore together - maybe you’ve had thoughts/feelings like that about me before? If not, that’s cool, I just feel better having said it to you so it’s out of my head :) but yeah, I like you and I’d like us to get dinner on an actual date date sometime and see how we both feel. What do you think?”
Or there’s always Margaret Cho’s technique…
Also 9/11 on the tv cart and then teacher said, “that’s going to be it for the day, call your parents”
I was your friend
No worries. Just phrase as “What are some android games that are good for kids, age X - X, with a traditionally feminine or “girly” aesthetic?”
That asks your same question, without implying (intentionally or not) that all girls are a “princess that likes pink”
New textbooks have disappearing ink that only lasts, about one semester, until a month before finals, and then in that month they trigger dynamic pricing increases due to a stronger than typical demand…
Just whatever makes sense
You know what is a great android game for girls… Any good android game. And that’s because girls are people. They have a diverse set of interests and are not one single thing.
Yes, common that folks in more privileged positions can have these skewed views on products, like, “Uber is a pretty good service and a good value…” but you only pay on your corporate expense account… When normal people need a ride now, it’s $80 for a 14 minute ride that used to cost 25-30 bucks. Someone’s we can just live fully different realities from most people.
You often forget to close camera shutters (they are often tone on tone and designed to be more invisible, or they can fall open/off. The microphones are also often located near/in camera modules, so a slide shutter can give a false sense of security, but you can still be heard even if not seen sometimes. I do hope it gets to a point where HW disconnect is the norm
They don’t “often come with” I’d say it’s fairly rare, and especially in the last generation of computers that most have now.
Also, what you mention are all steps above and beyond OP’s direction to “just unplug it” and they come with compromises - I.e. A shutter cover isn’t a HW disconnect, two very different things. And, a sticker isn’t really removable temporarily when you actually do need the camera deliberately. Certain high end laptops have a purported physical HW disconnect toggle or even some “flip around” cameras that are only deployed when needed, but again, few and far between.
Majority of “webcam” use is in laptops, tablets and phones, grandpa… No “unplug the damn thing” to be found?
“We’d love to not pay you for labor!!!”
:)
Check check, check da emails!!!
Two chicks at the same time, man…
