- Comment on Paywalls on local news sites 4 days ago:
Imo it is either a $83/year local paper or a free local newspaper. They can’t have it both ways if you ask me.

True, but you’ll never become an intermediate if you don’t grow your hair out. There are no shortcuts to a short cut.

TIL haircut matters when you want to get ahead in life
- Comment on Number of trackers and cookies I had to go thru after installing a currency converter app 5 days ago:
Personal experience is that 2-3 years ago you had to search for a small hidden line of text and now much more often it is not this kind of shit. Especially this year I feel it’s become more easy to reject cookies. Also the ‘accept our cookies or pay a way too expensive subscription to access our website’ type of pop-upe seem to have vanished. Not saying we’re there yet, and also not saying i know what it is like everywhere in the world.
- Comment on Number of trackers and cookies I had to go thru after installing a currency converter app 5 days ago:
Set your vpn to a eu country, more and more websites and apps have a button ‘allow necessary only’ or ‘reject all’. Not sure what the new law exactly asks of them but it feel it working already.

People don’t invite me for the fun
- Comment on Olive Branch MS mayor refusing to lower flag for Dolly 5 days ago:
What groups persons would be considered honorific? Only people that work for the government (army, politicians etc)? Esteemed business men too? Nobel price winners? Esteemed scientists? It’s a slippery slope either way. I’d argue that it’s not up to the government to when it is allowed and when it is not, I’d argue every individual and every governmental body gets to decide for themselves.
- Comment on Olive Branch MS mayor refusing to lower flag for Dolly 5 days ago:
I might get a lot of downvotes for this, but in a perfectly working democracy “she supported the transgender” can be a legitimate reason not to honor them with a flag at half pole. But usually in a perfectly working democracy the ruling parties dont need a scapegoat, nor would there be much reason to incite so much prejudice that supporting trans rights is a bad thing. But still, i’d argue if a majority doesn’t want trans people to have human rights, the leader of that majority would have a democratically legitimate reason for that bullshit. Not saying that is the right thing, but we can’t only persue democracy if we like the results - if we fifight for it, we should also accept the bad.
- Comment on DuckDuckGo's "hide ai images" option still shows AI images that are clearly tagged on the site 6 days ago:
I consider these kinds of feature WIP, and more a partial fix than a total solution. I do think we’re slowly getting there though.

It’s only 14 nights and parents probably have insurance, I’d risk it at their age.

- Comment on Podcasts who put "post credits scenes" after the outro music 1 week ago:
Get rid of your fomo. If they put content beyond the end of the podcast it’s not getting heard and they are the ones losing out. Don’t be the slave of the system.
- Comment on you know what's mildly infuriating? a reposter bot 1 week ago:
If my home feed runs out of new and interesting stuff i open all, think a lot of people do that. Have to say I’m not desperate enough to sort all by new or hot.

Funny it shows the cake in my app but doesn’t do it in yours

I’m conflicted about it. But either way, happy cake day

You mean the reposter doxed the OP on reddit.

Sorry, but it’s gonna to be $3000 rnate.

No, it redirects to a site selling porn-porns.

Maybe leave a link to the original post if you care about it being original?
- Comment on Every payment option has a fee 1 week ago:
To be fair those are some serious fees, and usually the seller eats some of it.

I wonder if I should start using question marks after statements?

Here is one.

Sucks for you, moon is closer to 0 than the sun is.
- Comment on When every candidate you supported loses the election 1 week ago:
Maybe they didn’t have a car before but they did have the stickers, so they just saved them up? Or they had like an uncle who didn’t want to put them on his car so he had a whole stack of them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- Comment on Critics Trash Ivanka Trump’s Dolly Parton Tribute: 'Rich F**king Thing For You To Say' 1 week ago:
I do want to see that notice, don’t misunderstand me, but it’s not that I want to see their faces then.
- Comment on Attorney general: ‘Everyone is Welcome Here’ sign cannot be displayed in Idaho schools 1 week ago:
Isn’t everyone being welcome a legal requirement? I mean, isn’t that sign just stating a fact? Or is this a fact like ‘fossil fuel emissions lead to climate change’? Facts that a part of the people don’t like, so it is now forbidden to tell the truth?
- Comment on This drip coffee is now $5 dollars, up from $2.50 3 years ago 1 week ago:
You’re right it’s not clear, but to me it’s a very unlikely price and a very unlikely cup for a coffee at home.
