In case you didn’t know: combustion engines don’t run on electricity, but that magic dinosaur juice, so your ramblings don’t make sense

The massacre on Nanking was a dire read

I must have missed the part where these memes are making jokes about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Simple: It doesn’t.
Barbenheimer, also known as Barbie Heimer, is a portmanteau of the words “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” in reference to the 2023 movies Barbie and Oppenheimer, which were released on the same date (July 21st, 2023), causing a slew of Barbie vs. Oppenheimer memes that humorously combined the contrasting aesthetics and themes of both films. In turn, the word “Barbenheimer” spawned on social media and gained its own traction in memes and viral discourse, mostly in reference to the act of doing a double feature of both films. Many Barbenheimer memes and fan art used images that were both pink and black (correlating with the color palettes of both films), as well as images that involved both explosions and girly aesthetics.
It’s just a typical case of taking a thing and getting riled up about it, without making a simple Google search, what the thing you don’t like is even about.
Seeing they made 9/11 memes to retaliate against Americans already, why not keep barbenheimer? Tea is already spilled on both ends, everybody is unhappy, that’s a compromise for ya

Sometimes those extreme privacy preachers remind me of doomsday preppers.
I too reduced my data finger print, started using uBlock, thought more often if the data in a registration form is really needed for the service they provide (and didn’t register when in doubt), and so on…
I don’t have Facebook, WhatsApp, TikTok, Instagram, Twitter (anymore), the only things I have are Reddit, Lemmy and Mastodon.
Still I don’t inspect every bit going through my network with Wireshark and PiHole to see, if some packet sent while watching a movie may contain personal data. At some point you gotta live a little instead of full-time fear mongering, doomsday preaching for the tech apocalypse.
I have reduced my digital fingerprints by a large margin with common sense, I don’t need a 100% privacy speedrun, what counts is that you do something. And the effects show, especially in the form of less spam and recommendations for items you’ll never need.
Google knows which topics I search for, big whoop, wouldn’t be much of a search engine otherwise.

It doesn’t go bad so fast though.
As a rule of thumb: gas is good 2-3 months in a car tank, before it’s ability to properly combust deteriorates. It wont go bad immediately, but it’s power yield worsens over time, so does your car’s mpg, because it needs more gas to compensate.
Just don’t let it sit there like half a year

I mean, having to worry about getting around all month on a mostly empty tank, side-eyeing the gauge at every traffic light at the commute to work isn’t that great.
I know a few people that had a hard time paying for gas to even get to work and when they managed to fill the tank they felt relieved, so I can understand where those people come from.
I personally am glad I can work from home, just saves so much gas. Fill it up, use it for 1-2 months to buy groceries, visit people, drive to the few work appointments that don’t work over Teams.

Died of a heart attack once, getting the shirt from the ventilator. Didn’t make that much progress :(
