Here at db0 is about as free as you can get...

EXCEPT.

If your definition of "free speech" is "I want to be racist or homophobic", which I suspect this is, go kick rocks loser.

None. Every single modern vehicle built by every major manufacturer has copius tracking and phone-home features, even the most basic of basic stripped down fleet vehicles with no infotainment still do it.

If you're electronically inclined, one could probably find a modern vehicle that is sufficiently modular and remove/disable the phone-home systems. (GM's OnStar I believe is still fairly defeatable these days, as it is or was a separate computer module). But unless you have deep, innate knowledge of RF and can go so far as to band scan your vehicle after you remove or destroy the relevant wireless tech, there is no guarantee you will get 100% secure. And many of those systems are now (intentionally) deeply integrated with the rest of the body control devices and alarm systems, defeating them may throw errors that will cripple your car into engine limp mode or endless nuisance alerts.

This also doesn't account for the fact that modern vehicles do a lot of saved-trip logging that would still be available locally, if someone were so inclined to gain physical access to and/or confiscate your vehicle to download said logs.

Buy used and keep fixing them, or stop driving, those are your options. Welcome to late stage capitalism, sucks to suck, will that be cash or card?

Some part of me is glad my WWII grandfather died in December, so he didn't have to see thr country he fought for get turned into the very thing he fought against.

That seems totally fine. If he is upfront with clients that images are AI generated/uptouched, not real photos, and that is what they are paying for, that's just called running a business that innovated a saturated market. He found a way to produce a product and do it cheaper than everyone else.

Does it kinda cheapen out the experience from not capturing "real" memories? Personally I'd say yup. But that is my personal preference and not that of the clients.

How do I feel?

I was following my Lemmy rule and hunting out smaller instances rather than pile into the biggest one.
tried 4 separate smaller instance sign ups and never got a single one of them to work and send me a verification email, so I kinda gave up....

Pandemics means market drops and supply chain interruptions, which destroys a bunch of value, which means the currently-wealthy can buy up the rest of the world at fire sale prices and price gouge for what's left.

Ten richest men in the world doubled their wealth to 1.5tn during covid. They want to repeat that. Millions dead is a minor side effect they don't care about.

Yet another tariff that is somehow magically against an American ally and not against Russia or China.

I'm really glad I'm on the West Coast with at least 2300 miles separating me from this horror show.

As expected, their screeching about the "weaponization of the DOJ" was only because they wanted to be the ones doing it.

 

Like who tf made up that rule? Maybe it's just a different kind of dirty????

edit 1/26: i apologize for the dumb posts that I make when I am high

 

2nd amendment about to disappear real fast, I can see the justification being planned already. weird how that happens when it's used against the SS.

 

"Jensen sir, 50 series is too hot"

"Easy fix with my massive unparalleled intellect. Just turn off the sensor"

If you needed any more proof that Nvidia is continuing to enshittify their monopoly and milk consumers. Hey lets remove one of the critical things that lets you diagnose a bad card and catch bad situations that might result in gpu deathdoors! Dont need that shit, Just buy new ones every 2 years you poors!

If you buy a Nvidia GPU, you are part of the problem here.

 

More wastes of time from the lovely oregon GOP and especially the corrupt Linthicums.

Summary

The Taliban have banned windows in homes that allow views of areas where Afghan women might be seen, citing concerns over "obscene acts."

This new decree mandates blocking or obstructing such windows in existing and new buildings, continuing the group's systemic repression of women since regaining control of Afghanistan in August 2021.

The Taliban's policies have included bans on women's education, public appearances, and voices.

Critics, including the U.N., warn these actions dangerously erode human rights, while activists call out global inaction over the ongoing oppression.

 

Adding grapes to microwave setups doubles the magnetic field strength, opening doors for smaller, more efficient quantum sensors.
