Honesty is the best policy, after all. The only problem is some of those marked as sex offenders are innocent and don’t deserve to be hunted and killed by the vigilantes this list would inspire.

Alright who tf is Krafton and why are they colonising all of a sudden
(rhetorical - I’ll be researching them later)

I had no idea unions charged the members for membership! Guess it makes sense, who the fuck else is going to reliably support/fund unions

At least the government seems to be supporting the people. Props to them. Israel’s a fucking tiny state, it really shouldn’t be hard to blitz them

Cool! Finally a worthy successor to Steep?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Yeah, I didn’t heed a user’s warning and decided to check out a link to a site I won’t name. Scary stuff, it’s 4chan-esque and they have a dedicated channel for finding and attacking/doxxing people

Yeah, my partner trusts the Independent to be pretty balanced, and while she may be correct I have seen the same sensationalist styles in their articles

I’ve only seen that word used in hate groups, weird to see someone using it as a descriptor

It’s not like we’ll ever create a revolutionary army and keep the law keepers in check. They do this because they think there’s no consequence.

- Comment on Mullvad's ads are good 3 weeks ago:
I agree that ads can help people be aware of a product’s existence, but I believe, especially at this stage when I am tired of being spoonfed, that a more organic way is preferable. For example - forums, product reviews (REAL ones ofc), product storefronts including online marketplaces…
When someone needs something, they can go looking for it. A door that grates on a frame for example, may be talked about on a forum, which discusses the products others have found to help. In this case a mouse(shaped) sander. The person can then follow breadcrumbs to the most convenient store that sells it.
This is actually the way I find most things I need. The vast majority of products shown to me, passively on various items in the streets or in video format, are useless to me. I first learned about VPNs when I looked for a solution to a website article having an error page stating that it cannot be viewed in my country.

Ah I understand now, I was a little slow to get that the “loan” is the $700 and it won’t be repaid for a while… Damn. Well I hope the next update is a positive one! YMMV but I’ve learned that harassing customer service often works, by chasing it up with another email every few days to however often you can handle it

This is a road that leads to a Book of Law that surpasses the lifespan of generations of people, but we have one and it’s partially broken 😔
- Comment on Mullvad's ads are good 3 weeks ago:
Here’s the thing. The reason ads are bad is because almost every single one is for a product that will exploit the user. Mullvad is a product that does the opposite. They ask for money, but don’t force it. They intend to give power of the user’s life back to the user. Thus, some ads are actually okay. Ads about VPNs, self hosted systems, anti-corporate anticapitalist services, software that is for you to use and only ever takes telemetry for software improvement, and then only if you consent first.
Hell, before this garbage, on TV the only ads were products and charities, and everybody grew really sick of the African child ads because its sole purpose was to exploit the viewer’s empathy and get their money. Same with now, except if it’s not money they want it’s data, and data is money to them.

Which god are we talking about? And which heaven! Definitely not Islamic, but one of the Hindu heavens? One of the Jewish ones maybe?

Being a hateful and harmful individual, damaging society - the correct society - is a choice and one you don’t have to make.

Did you choose to pay with installments for the laptop, is that why they’ll get money from you? For the privilege of not having the product…
- Comment on UK’s largest Jewish group punishes members who broke silence on Gaza genocide 4 weeks ago:
Except from that one time that one guy deemed that every demographic he disliked was damaging society by their existence and deserving of not only banishment, but horrific death.
Banishing and rejecting certain people must be accepted, in order to reduce the harm they cause. Genocide supporters, anti-BIPOC and anti-LGBTQIAA+ radicals, anti-women podcasters, tyrannical leaders of their local civilisations. Jail might work, but a complete reform of what is deemed criminal is also needed. The current English-speaking governments are not modern enough.

- Comment on Only 1 in 3 Euro consumers are trading in their old phones 5 weeks ago:
My last phone was the OnePlus 6T and they only accepted trade-ins for about five years. By the time I’m ready to trade it its value is so low that it’s barely worth the cost of sending it to a recycling centre
- Comment on Switch 2 Teardown: Still Glued, Still Soldered, Still Drifting 5 weeks ago:
And the deluded fucks still charge more than US$250 for their half-a-console. It’s got good processing power and stellar shell construction, but charging the same price Xbox and PlayStation do for a handheld main with the same trash joysticks, tiny battery, stickers for the Joy-Con socket decal, plastic screen and 1080p display? In 2025?
