Mullvad has couple of USA exits that don’t get blocked by Reddit. Texas and D.C., I think.
- Comment on Volunteering enshittification 1 day ago:
Very few countries require consent in public and some that do, like France, make exceptions for art and other non-commercial photos.
But, we’re not talking about some commercial photographer taking photos in public. We’re talking about an NGO who wants to snap photos anytime while people are doing their work. It’s absurd to think they can stop everyone every time to get some snaps.
Trust me it’s not worth having that one or two people working with their special requirements. A blanket waiver saves tons of time and hassle.
- Comment on Volunteering enshittification 1 day ago:
I say this is a complete over reaction and a photo for the org is not comparable to whatever Delta is doing. You want to hide in a bunker and never show your face in public? Go for it. But, there’s more productive privacy battlefields out there than an NGO wanting to snap photos for for their marketing. Your face is going to be out there, anyway.
- Comment on Volunteering enshittification 1 day ago:
That’s completely unrealistic in most situations and would never take a matter of seconds. Also, it would make every photo stages. All that to cater to one person’s preferences is not reasonable.
- Comment on Volunteering enshittification 1 day ago:
This is just so they can take photos and video of volunteers and they don’t have to get releases from each and every person every time someone snaps a photo. Without this waiver, getting photos and video would be a pain in the ass and take up some of every volunteer’s time.
Think about it. You’re asking them to jump through extra hoops every time you’re volunteering. Now, they have to track who signed the waiver and who didn’t. They can’t have staff or volunteers just snap photos whenever they have time. Now, they have to plan every shoot. This costs time and money.
It’s probably really is better for them to just not have people volunteering who don’t want their face on a flyer or to be seen in a commercial or training video.

Sued by an environmental nonprofit for failing to warn about the presence of lead and heavy metals as required by CA law. They settled.

They literally sold out. They sold the company. And, they sold it to a corporation whose portfolio is littered with microtransactions.
cut their losses
What losses? Were they not profitable?
and cashed their checks
Yeah, that’s the selling out part.
- Comment on Pop it in your calendars 1 week ago:
The founders are the villains of this piece as much as Krafton. They sold out for a big payday. This was all very predictable.
You’d have to really dense to think that Krafton is going to come along with half a billion dollars and just let things carry on as usual.

All the laws I’ve seen say you must signal 100ft before turning and don’t have an exception for turn lanes.
Do you have an example of such an exception?
- Comment on Young men are 'playing videogames all day' instead of getting jobs because they can mooch off of free healthcare, claims congressman 3 weeks ago:
So, they want to take away healthcare young men don’t have so they’ll get jobs that don’t exist. Sounds like a conservative plan.

On the other hand, the new blockchain game they just released had funding from Marc Andreessen. So, color me skeptical.

The Bear is a comedy? It’s funny at times but there’s way too much drama to call it a comedy, IMO.

Were you expecting backstory?

It’s the only Stargate series I’ve seen all the way through (what was available). I’ve tried SG-1 and Atlantis and they were ok but a little too… cheesy?… to keep my interest.

You keep posting about this and I don’t think it’s healthy.
You are not responsible for your parent’s divorce.
Posting on the Internet will not help you. Talk to a therapist. It can take a lot work to change this mindset. You need someone to guide you. Random people on the Internet cannot do that.

On second thought, do wear any/all of those and be sure to wax your mustache. Leave a hat or box for tips, I’ll throw some in.

Just don’t wear a vest, bowler/tophat or wingtips.
- Comment on Over 250 CEOs sign open letter supporting K-12 AI and computer science education 2 months ago:
Learning how to obey the AI? Learning to recognize AI hallucinations from when the AI is just plain wrong? Learning how to put your classmates’ faces on porn?
That’s at least a quarter to a semester of material.

They’re all experts on education and psychology, too, I’m sure. And they’re not at all motivated solely by greed and avarice.

Does ChatGPT incorrectly put spaces around the em dash, too? There should be no spaces around an em dash—that’s a clue that implies a human writer.
And, em dashes and en dashes are great—they should be used more often.
- Comment on Are we all suffering from "future shock" in 2025? 2 months ago:
Future Shock isn’t about the 70s or any decade being “better.” It’s about the effects of rapidly changing technology not that technology shouldn’t change.

This kind of thing makes me lose hope for humanity—the tendency for psychopaths to rise in power. Maybe that actually helped us advance to a point but it’ll definitely hold us back from evolving to something more equitable for all.
- Comment on If I snapped you back in time 650 years right this very second, how would you use your current knowledge to succeed? 2 months ago:
Yes. I’d have to learn their language first, anyway. I already know bits of modern versions but not much. Then, introduce the warning of invasions and teach them English with the caution that people speaking groups of people speaking will bring death and destruction.
It’s not like they’ll already have a fear of English or any concept of the language before I teach it to them.
