I've wasted too many hours on Shatter Pixel Dungeon.

You can get the source for OG Pixel Dungeon off GitHub, but there's a maintened version on the F-Droid store (Shatter Pixel Dungeon). There's some other free versions floating around too, not sure if they're on the F-Droid store too, but I know they're on the play store.

You're right, none need to go.....

....but most people are too tech illiterate to even know there's an option outside windows. Hell, I dated a girl who though windows was the operating system on apple devices (she used the term windows and operating system interchangeably)

Oh thank God. I started to read that head line and thought the marvelous bastard died on us.

Maybe they should have just gone all in and named it Titan after that one famous boat.

Can't remember what that boat was so famous for tho /s

....and so just to be clear, by pig, you mean a cop, yeah?

Yo, yeah, what's up with the acorns?

I guess it's being associated with the sounds of a gun shot?

So other commenters have opinions that I think are rational, but the part that I think is key that they're missing: Tenant Unions.

I have some (in my opinion) tyrannical yet lazy land lords/property managers at my current apt, and have attempted to form a tenant union. Apparently no one agrees with my level of disgust at our treatment, so I've kind of wiffed at the effort.

Which is to say that it takes real work, but it can be done and there are resources for you, but that's the first step: don't go alone.

So that solves the problem of them reading your files, but it doesn't solve the metadata collection portion.

They will still have your location, details of your device, geo location data, probably IP space, not to mention the ability to do pattern of life analysis on you as you modify and move files.

Protecting the contents of your files seems like a logical first step, but that's not the only step.

Talking to my neighbors, they're dealing with a ~30% YoY rent hike.

Property is managed by RealPage (or some flavor of subsidiary/partner company).

I really hope that company gets SUNK after the anti-trust lawsuit they're dealing with (it's a really slow moving one, and I haven't heard a substantial update since Summer 2023).

For additional context, two world wars were fought between the "discovery" of the green house effect in the global context. It really feels like marking the time the climate movement started as somewhere in the 1950's (History.com mentions the first major study on the matter was in 1958 ) is a more realistic timeframe to say "we really should have known better" (since that's when word would have begun trickling to the masses).

That's not to say that we're smart - it's not to say that we're not stupid, its just to say we're not quite as stupid as the comic would have you think
