Generally agree, but when one of the two participants in a market is actively hostile to users and the other is actually competing for market share, seems like that's worth acknowledging. Especially when we so many examples of either outright collusion or as soon as one corporation introduces a new hostile feature all the others in the market follow.

On that note, I'm waiting for the day Nvidia announces a subscription service for unlocking cores or clock speeds.

I wonder what the regret rate is for getting married? Having kids? Having conservative parents?

It's pretty clear that it's Apps, not iPhone. But also... iPhone is responsible for holding application developers to their terms of service. It's absolutely appropriate to criticize them for failing to deliver what they're selling in terms of claims to a more private ecosystem.

I hate that just throwing out all your shit is more cost effective

... Also would be pretty true for long moves.

How is this itself not a fake argument?

The arguments in support of tick-tock are a bizarre amalgamation of just about every category of bad faith argument. I haven't seen one that suggests tick-tock it's actually a net benefit.

I suspect now it was never about "don't believe everything", it's just been "believe what I believe". Which I suppose follows Nietzsche's thought on the transition from religion to ideology.

There are many methods that are ultimately a combination of psychological tricks, and finding food and meal times that you work well with.

The one thing they all have in common is calories in being less than calories out.

One of the easiest and most effective ways to get started is simply establishing a baseline. Don't try to change anything, just count everything. And yes that means everything. After that, look for things you know don't make you feel good. Maybe limit or drop soda, cut a snack in half, limit dessert, reduce alcohol, etc.

Radical diet changes aren't required, just consistent.

When you start to run into problems with something that feels like self control (snacking, meal size, alcohol, sugar, etc), then look into ways to work through that. Often it's just learning new habits (never eat from the bag, seconds are ok but start small and wait, etc). Those habits really depend on the individual and where you're currently at though.

Some people do great with keto, some with fasting 20 hours a day, some with only snacks instead of meals, or only meals and zero snacks. Just trying those at random without understanding where you're currently at first can lead to feeling failure and giving up unless you happen to get lucky with what you try first.

And, always be kind to yourself.

I just text; don't have to worry about someone else picking it up.

Alternatively, don't spend any time out effort on that, except flagging/deleting spam, and take advantage of search functionality to immediately find anything you need later on.

Agreed on the calendar use though.

That sounds interesting!

How does the vanilla pudding mix work? What is it replacing?

That's a much better argument than what's presented in this meme. There's at least an argument to claim that the difference is about curtailing foreign interest through ownership. Ownership does heavily influence a platform. Unfortunately that hasn't prevented Murdock from owning more formal messaging platforms.

On a side note, how do you feel about a handful of corporations controlling and censoring the Internet?

Generally agree, but I think right wing chuds were the second wave usage trying to co-opt the meaning to be opposite of woke.

Keep in mind that the new lane assist or collision avoidance stuff can be turned off in virtually all new cars.

Manufacturers are making this more and more difficult to control by the user.

It does seem to be more a question of motivation (when it comes to voting)

Your recorded history may not be stored locally. Would be shocking if Google didn't have some way of de-anonymizing searches.

I'd be interested in that snickerdoodle recipe if you feel like sharing :)

I'm glad you're doing better. Found family is still family, but it sure is nice when the one you're born into accepts who you are.

Yes that is how averages work. The point is more that looking at averages can avoid or diminish responsibility, and in that case likely isn't the right metric.

If 80% of the problem is caused by 20% of the people, then average really isn't the best way to discuss the problem.

I think everyone involved would also download a car.

Humans enjoy collaborating and sharing. It doesn't have to be transactional.
