I'm probably gonna get clowned for feeding the troll, but - this comment comes off a lot more harsh if you've ever experienced not having access to the Internet and a smartphone or computer.

I spent the better part of 16 years of my life with no TV, MP3 player, phone, Internet, or computer - and it has negatively impacted me in immeasurable ways. I couldn't find work, because I couldn't apply for jobs but also I didn't know you could do that on the Internet - I also didn't know YouTube existed, so I missed out on learning the things I liked, and I didn't know I was being abused because I had no way of knowing that it wasn't normal until I got access to help, via the Internet.

I wasn't in the stone age - if I'd had options to do any of the above without a phone or the Internet, I'd be a different person today. Shut up, mate - not everyone can afford or has the opportunity to own a smartphone and data plan (which are rare and expensive in abusive situations like my past). Making services available in places like libraries and community centers without requiring smartphones and Internet would help so many people who have no ability to use them - those people are just as human as you.

and by the way while we're at it: if we're effectively paywalling access to basic human rights behind an IP address and cellular radio, those should be enshrined as human rights too.

same, i've been very happy with Caddy, even with lots of subdomains and weird configs it's been rock solid.

i always found this to be upsetting as an IT tech at a former company - when a network or server had an issue and i was sent to resolve it, it was a "just reboot it" fix, which never kept the problem from recurring and bringing the server down at 07:00 the next Monday.

the limitations on the questions i could ask hurt that SLA more than any network switch's memory leak ever did, and i felt as if my expertise meant nothing as a result.

Musk blocking Signal links makes me just a bit happier about my Signal donation every month :>

so when does a judge charge this guy with negligent homicide, the enforcement arm ignore it, and someone impersonate our favorite green Nintendo plumber?

they're always so fucking chill and unbothered when the world is burning, smug af

my righteous Mormon childhood was so holy that I speak in tongues and writhe upon the ground, possessed by the Spirit (I have PTSD and panic attacks) :D

i am in cybersecurity and IT. i saw a huge cyber attack on Bluetooth-enabled devices at an event a while back, and it put several people with Bluetooth-enabled insulin pumps in the hospital.

i recently discovered that a good friend of mine has an insulin pump. i am legitimately worried about her safety as a result, and even more so after seeing this.

i also do not like this :D

there is most certainly a point where you must start fighting dirty, and i think it's time for us Americans to seriously start considering our use of that whole 2nd Amendment thing - murder is bad, obviously, but we are one of the most heavily armed populations in the world, and that means a lot.

i feel this, i totally forget to update my libraries haha

would be a shame if EMS were slow to respond to an emergent need for medical care for one Utah governor. why did they think this was a good idea??

hell yeah this is the way
