Correct.
But we don’t need employees to audit your use of company devices - we have LLMs for that. We can always define what is “work related” and flag anything that doesn’t match, or any web addresses that are outside the pre-approved list (it doesn’t have to be blacklisting, we can do whitelisting too).
And yeah, they won’t fire you right away… they’ll just collect data, and use it to justify firing you when they decide that you cost too much.
- Comment on Anon works at a warehouse 5 days ago:
I mean… you should always assume that everything on a company-owned device is being monitored.
And yeah, just because there weren’t immediate consequences doesn’t mean there won’t be any.
- Comment on From a purely political perspective, if you oppose the US tariffs as a US resident, should you buy or avoid buying products subject to tariffs? 1 week ago:
Always buy local if you can. It has the lowest climate impact.
Even buying a less-green local product vs. a more eco-friendly import might have less climate impact due to resource extraction, production in areas with possibly less environmental protection regulations, and above all shipping.
Climate cost-benefit outweighs all other arguments for rational people.

Amazon is a terribly exploitative company, but… they might actually be better than Oracle.

Yeah, for being brilliant physicists, they weren’t particularly smart. From the second incident:
On May 21, 1946, one of Daghlian’s colleagues, physicist Louis Slotin, was demonstrating a similar criticality experiment, lowering a beryllium dome over the core.
Like the tungsten carbide bricks before it, the beryllium dome reflected neutrons back at the core, pushing it toward criticality. Slotin was careful to ensure the dome – called a tamper – never completely covered the core, using a screwdriver to maintain a small gap, acting as a crucial valve to enable enough of the neutrons to escape.
The method worked, until it didn’t.
The screwdriver slipped and the dome dropped, for an instant fully covering the demon core in a beryllium bubble bouncing too many neutrons back at it.
After an initial bout of nausea and vomiting, he at first seemed to recover in hospital, but within days was losing weight, experiencing abdominal pain, and began showing signs of mental confusion.
A press release issued by Los Alamos at the time described his condition as “three-dimensional sunburn”.

Is there water access on the property? Potential for drilling a well?
Without a steady source of water, farming is problematic.

No, stores pay the fee to the provider (MasterCard/Visa/American Express/etc) for processing the transaction. This is why you see those little signs that say “minimum credit card purchase $5” or w/e in smaller shops, because if the transaction is too small they lose money on it.
You might actually inflict $2.50 in losses on the location for processing a single transaction for a $0.50 sauce cup.
- Comment on Anon is deeply disturbed 5 weeks ago:
Hmm… isn’t the credit card transaction fee usually about $3?

Almost all of these turn into attempts to get the target to buy into some crypto scam or other.
It’s not meant to catch people who are moderately aware, it’s meant to catch the stupid, ignorant, and easy to manipulate. Being an obvious scam is part of the utility - it saves time by naturally filtering out anyone who is too aware to actually give them any money.

Really depends on where and how the data collection is integrated.
Browser forks mostly make changes to the application UI which wraps the engine, not to the engine itself. Browser engines are these fantastically complex things, extremely difficult to keep operational and secure, which is why there aren’t many of them and why they’re all developed by large organizations. Forking the engine is basically doomed to failure because you won’t be able to keep up, you’ll be out of date in a month and drastically insecure in a year.
