This is probably not what you wanna hear, but when the battery gets low, the current gets weaker. If the current gets too weak, the scale becomes more and more inaccurate. Like, wildly so. In other words, the alternative is to lie to you. Badly.

He is completely wrong. Couldn’t be more wrong. But preventing a rabies outbreak?! Tyranny!!! Oppression!!! Fascism!!!

What the hell, man…

In movies when there’s a huge explosion in space, there’s always this ring that comes out from the explosion. No!

In space the blast wave would be spherical: it only looks like a 2d ring when observed from a telescope many many light years away, since the telescope can only pick up the outside edge of the blast.

Good. That’s exactly the kinda of lowbrow crap that shouldn’t be accepted in public or online. And if you can’t advocate your favorite orange weirdo in a diaper without calls for violence, doxxing folks, etc, then you know what? That’s the kind of worthless shit heel society should not be wasting it’s time on…

I’m pretty sure you have that exactly backwards, ironically…

Anybody dare do a tldr? When the first paragraph says Bros Attacks, a staple of the entire series, are new, my brain kinda melted…

I’m not gonna teach my daughters who they are or are not supposed to trust. Because I will never teach my children what they should think, but rather how to think for themselves. I will encourage them to only trust individuals that prove themselves trustworthy, but again, that’s not my decision to make.

They’re not extensions of me; they are distinct, individual human beings. So I certainly hope you will not teach her to be distrustful; that leads to misery and pain, all in the pursuit of something that doesn’t belong to you and never will (her mind is her own, whether you like it or not).

Huh, didn’t realize that. I understand a lot of the physical servers for those kinda companies are in the upper Midwest, but I never thought about where thire HQ is at; you make some excellent points.

There is definitely a fight brewing over who has final say in regards to what happens on the Internet. Gonna be interesting seeing how this plays out.

The difference is, I think, just how much of the content or there is hosted in America. If they succeed in forcing local companies to follow some new draconian measure, it’ll likely have a disproportionately high effect on non-US traffic.

Well, they’re the ones that know which pizza shops have pedophile sex dungeons hidden underneath. So, I guess they’re fighting themselves. (As I typed that out, it occurred to me how true is a statement it was…😝)

Your couldn’t throw us a bone by including a link? 😉

That’s okay, I got you covered.

Wow. Reading this comment has lowered the IQ of everyone in this thread…

So, Trump is better? Yeah, we know he sucks. We also know Trump is far, far worse. But you know this, don’t you?

What is your plan, exactly? By not voting Biden, you help Trump, and he WILL directly cause far more death and suffering.

I’m still not gonna check a broken clock for the time, so what’s your point?

Lol no.

Yup, the West wanted war so bad they invaded…wait, no, that’s obviously bullshit.

Swapping one states’ propaganda for another isn’t enlightened, its just plain stupid.

What am I missing, here?

Well, for starters, you seem to be missing anything resembling a coherent argument… 🤪

Umm, no. Just…yeah, no.

The main problem with this theory is that Microsoft is absolutely abysmal at user end security, and they always have been. Frankly, they do not understand the issue.

But, more to the point, the whole TPM/secure boot stuff is a compromise; originally (I think this was about the time of Vista), they partnered with OEMs to have them include a DRM chip that made it literally impossible to install any non-windows OS on your laptop. They’ve managed to still get an implementation of TPM that makes switching your OS too confusing/difficult for the average user.

Anyway, bottom line is they only care about money, and they neither care or even understand the security needs of the end user.

…vibrates your asshole…

There is SO much to unpack in just three words! Omg 🤣

But… they’ve long since figured out how to monetize without the content. So, that’s a hard disagree from me…
