jumping won’t impress her

Unless it’s jump humping.

As soon as I read this I read the rest of your comment in Al Gore’s voice, ca 2k SNL, lol.

ITT I wish those that can recall would name and shame.

Funny thing I’ve been driving for 30+ years, and have never had a formal driving test:

• Permit at 15: No tests, only restriction was to have a licensed passenger in-vehicle

• License at 16: Had driver’s ed in school, state’s driving test waved, and license transferred to other states without any new driving test

• Motorcycle license: Took a safety course while in the military, state added endorsement without any test, which also transferred out-of-state

• Heavy vehicles: Trained on military 5-ton/deuce+0.5/Frontloaders/HMMWVs - all kinds of heavy equipment - no formal tests, only unit sign-off (even on civilian roads)

• The kicker: I now live in a US state where a driver license is good with no re-testing till age 64

Gonna suck when I actually do have to take a test. Hopefully there will be sane infra to go completely driverless by the time I get that old.

I love it too, I buy some of the wallaby stuff now and again.

Just don’t eat a ton in any given day.

Edit - Oh shit:

In past warnings, the FDA notes: “If you’re 40 or older, eating 2 ounces of black licorice a day for at least two weeks could land you in the hospital with an irregular heart rhythm or arrhythmia.”

Boot up from a live cd and go nuts.

not that Netflix has commercials

There’s a tier with commercials for many countries now.

It’s like the Mr. Garrison’s dildo mono-wheel “it” vehicle, it’s fucking you in the ass!

I can see a squirrel peaking out and hear Snot humping in the background! Beautiful!

Terry A. Davis, his journey creating his masterpiece is an incredible one. RIP, Terry.

I started answering unknown numbers and fucking with the people on the other end, saying anything to string them along and waste their time with bullshit and lies

I had a stoner friend who would drop everything in any given evening to do exactly this, specifically for his own entertainment and derision.

Ah, to be young and with plenty of spare time on hand, those were the days and we didn’t even realize it.

Memento is a time loop of sorts, good movie for sure.

An “entanglement”

Yes, but someone ultimately pays for the instance that is centralized. It’s that owner that could be susceptible to turning evil at worst, and misguided at best.

This is not infallible either. If money or power comes into it, you can bet on corruption.

How much washing up do you think you could do without any washing up liquid?

You’ve just kicked the can down the road. What then when the centralized link repo charges for api access, and also drops links it doesn’t like?

When you try to go centralized, it’s turtles all the way down. Something will have control that breaks the nature of being federated.

Unless there’s multiple link aggregators to choose from… but then that’s what we already have!

and a private telecommunications company can read absolutely all your digital communication

Well maybe. It’s one of the reasons e2e encryption is so imperative to online privacy. For instance, turning on https everywhere, then your isp can only see which servers you’re connecting to, not what’s in your traffic to them.

And to point it out up front, yeah the distant end’s servers likely have some for of that traffic captured, but now law enforcement has to dig up every company that they’re trying to pull info from. Which is significantly more difficult than just relying on a one stop shop arrangement.

And for the best privacy, like security, a multi-layered approach is better. So throw in a VPN, throw in something like a mullvad browser, throw in pseudonymous accounts, throw in different usernames + passwords across accounts, throw in…

Also, maybe they get petty enough that they want to go return the purchase, but don’t want to be seen by anyone they know doing it. So they’re ok with be curmudgeons, but they don’t want anyone else to know how cheap they are.

Soooo, they get one of their assistants do do it. But that perfect plan ends up taking a turn when…

Ok Larry David’s alt, I want it in writing that I’ll get a writer’s credit if you want the rest of the story.

What physical media do they have available?

Back when netflix first started, I subscribed to the 4 dvd plan. I’d rip and burn a copy of every movie that came through the house (if we liked it, that is). I was one of the few friends that had a DVD-R drive, and would make copies on request.

I still have an old case logic disk book completely filled with burnt dvds. I just built my first computer that doesn’t have a removable-disk drive, and with that, I no longer have any way to play dvds/blu-rays. Not one disc player in the whole house.
