Agreed, in my experience Tubi and Pluto both have very reasonable length, good quality ads. I declined to re-up on YouTube TV for NCAA football season this year specifically because I can stand their ads. At that price tier, they honestly expect me to sit through My Pillow ads??

Just did. Won our vote Wednesday night 💪

They didn’t get genetic raw data of anyone beyond the 14K, they got family relationship information. Which is an option you can turn on or off, if you want. It’s very clear that you’re exposing yourself to other people if you choose to see who you’re related to. It doesn’t expose raw data and it doesn’t instantly expose names, just how they’re related to you. (And most of the “relations” are 3rd to 5th cousins, aka strangers.)

Hackers used the genetic ancestry data of the 14K hacked users and their “relatives” connections to deduce large families of Ashkenazi Jews.

Select the “available for local pickup” option to weed out all the trash. Even if you’re buying to be shipped.

Use Amazon as a search engine, find what you need, then Google the manufacturer and buy it directly from them. You’d be surprised how many have free shipping . It’s usually not two day shipping, but what do you really need that fast?

If it’s electronics, buy online for local pickup at Best Buy. If it’s tools or house supplies, buy online for local pickup at Lowe’s or Home Depot. Buy online for local pickup at Target.

I haven’t purchased anything from Amazon in 4 years. It’s honestly way easier now than it was before Amazon started, but no one realizes that because Amazon got them locked in.

I know exactly where this is lol

In real life, a restaurant can and will kick you out and ban you from the premises for wearing a swastika and saying you think minorities don’t deserve to live.

Ergo, being kicked off a company’s privately owned server for hate speech is EXACTLY the same amount of freedom they would have in real life.

Everyone loves censorship. Even you.

AI companies are most certainly making an effort to profit from the content they’re deriving from copyrighted works.

The kool-aid is laced, kid. You should put it down.

AI trained on plagiarized art created by real humans who were not compensated for work that AI companies are now making money on.

Aka stealing

This kind of passive bigotry is necessary for genocides to occur. It is the foundation on which the mechanisms of genocide are built.

It’s not just no good; it’s terrifying.

Bathroom? Going out Elvis style

Hahaha, he’s great. Jimothy is one of his most common side characters. And he uses your naming convention for lots of his other side characters. Jimothy, Todrick, etc.

I believe you have been watching too many Dr. Glaucomflecken videos, my friend.

Swapped out the head unit on my 2016 car for a touchscreen that supports Android Auto. I got spoiled using a similar one in my friend’s rental car. It was only $600 installed at Best Buy. It’s so nice not to have to fight with keeping my phone in a display holder where I can see the map, and now I can control my phone-streamed music with my steering wheel controls. Makes driving so much more pleasant.

Bitchin’

Golf course lawns are lame and terrible for the environment.

That was me last fall with my “trash and leaves pile” that is now a nice new garden with flowers and decorative grass

I am definitely the bad kid on the block lol

I think “several inches” is a bit overwrought. It’s like one layer of leaves that will be mulched up the instant I mow next spring. And what is a “good idea”? What’s going to happen? Some grass might die. Oh noes, the world will end!

We need to rethink how we live in all respects. And not depleting lawns of nutrients that we have to replace with artificial fertilizer is part of that
