Welp, that's enough internet for the week for me

Thanks Mickey
Agreed, but things act differently at scale and it's not like there's 10 billion+ hammers being used at the same time, almost all of the time, for years on end
Yeah I think blanket statements either way are misguided. Some tech does help the disabled, other tech makes their lives much more difficult. It's like any other tool, when it's used at scale by something aiming for optimizing profit it will have terrible side effects
You see, it actually did still save you time from finding a local shop that sells it and interacting with your neighbor
Maybe not be sexist by comparing asses to blow up sex dolls? You don't make many friends by shitting on your friends to shit on your enemies, yeah?
Yeah co-ops are amazing, I'm always astounded when I find cities that don't have any
100%, perfect is the enemy of good. But it makes little logical sense to give any of these corporations any money or data
Right? And why not just boycott all pubkically traded companies forever? 40 days doesn't do much
Yeah, with the Vault 7 releases and recent leaks showing NSA follows homeless people's connections (who tend to hang out at libraries due to a lack of 3rd spaces), I don't doubt there's specific tracking, malware and other unwanted software at libraries. I don't have any sources of this, but it wouldn't surprise me
Maybe I'm overly parandoid because ::gestures at everything::
From a privacy perspective, at least in the US, any traffic outside of the country is analyzed differently than traffic only in the US. Not that it really matters much, since US gov likes to track everything, I just found it annoying watching FF connect to so many servers before ever going to a website. Seems sketchy, since harden FF don't do this
Yeah, forcing any tech to use a service is terrible and short sided
