I bet google doesn’t have to. They can still mine your data and sell it for profit. They’re a data company first after all.

This part is hilarious in a sad way:
At least one of Chevron’s spills is still running 21 years after it began in a Kern County oilfield, although a state spokesperson said it has been reduced by 98% “from its peak.” The amount spilled from the site, dubbed GS-5, is larger than the Exxon Valdez disaster.
It’s reduced because it’s been leaking for 21 years! It’s bound to stop flowing as aggressively as when it first started.
“You’re talking to me”: How do we determine from which POV we’re looking from? Seems like the POV is from whomever sends this picture, so wouldn’t that mean that we’re looking through OPs eyes? CMV
To go hang out with people in a cool setting while having alcohol-like drinks without the problems. Like going to a Kava bar or something, or tea bar. Bunch of places out there with themed drinks to hang out. Sometimes you like the taste of cocktails but don’t want to get drunk.
But who was phone?
When I tried setting up a new computer I initially started with Windows. Going through that new setup process was such a pain in the ass with how Microsoft tries to connect you to their services. I just want to use the damn computer without any of these ‘extra’ services. Like, is it so difficult to have an OS that you can just simply install and use without any BS? Its what finally pushed me to move to Linux. Haven’t looked back since.
Why haven’t these sanctions already been in effect? Seems like every now and then there are some more sanctions being added but why not just do them all already?
Looks like the UK is breathing a sigh of relief after this.
Give it some time, Lemmy will get there eventually.
Weren’t the French pretty salty about the UK? I recall seeing some articles on punishing the UK for leaving
Taiwan is an independent and Democratic country. China should stop bullying other countries in their own territorial waters.
It’s really hard but I struggle to tell people about my operating system. I use Arch BTW.
Looks like the FBI kept his message from going through because it was a faux pas on the senders side to not know who Joe is.
While I agree, the UK needs to chip a little more in too. This is everyone’s problem, not just the United States.

Have you heard of the five stages of grief? That’s probably the best first way to deal with it. No capitalist/socialist/fascist/technocratic/authoritarian utopia will be able to fix that. I don’t believe there is a better system yet than what the western world already has. Maybe one day UBI will exist and everyone will have more freedom to enjoy their passions but even then it you’ll still have to work most of your life.
Best you can do is figure out what you want out of your life and take the steps to do it. Like what most people have said, living below your means helps with funding your goals and protecting yourself against accidents. Find ways to do what you want now but know there’s always a trade off. It isn’t fair but I don’t think it ever has been, except for a very privileged class of people.
Exactly, the way the NSA is buying the data is no different from Facebook. Only way to stop it is for consumers to have ownership of their own data.
I used to vape in college but afterwards decided to quit. Part of what made quoting easier was moving away and breaking from routine because for me it became a part of my day-to-day. The other thing that helped me was doing cardio. Running would suck so hard because my lungs had a hard time keeping up. That shitty feeling also helped push through cravings.
Took me a second. I first thought it was about working from home.
I have this feeling too. But any game that requires an internet connection to work will eventually end up being bricked when its servers are shut down.
I recently played Helldiver’s 1 on the PS vita, and realized the servers were disabled. despite those servers being down you could still essentially play the game, even though its not as fun.
