Malware's definition:

Malicious computer software that interferes with normal computer functions or sends personal data about the user to unauthorized parties over the Internet.

Any forced update that increases data collection without consent or intentionally breaks previous functionality being pushed out to millions of people should result in multi-decade prison sentences for cybercrimes.

Oh, so mobile-only.

How did you do that?

We need to make it illegal to force people to use a chatbot. It's just a way to create the most frustrating experience possible without even having to pay an Indian call center. It's the new version of being put on hold for an hour and then getting transferred and put on hold for another hour, someone you can barely understand picking up the phone, and then hanging up on you after you explain what you want and making you call again.

I hate that YouTube Music keeps trying to make me waste my bandwidth on videos that have worse audio quality than when it just plays the song. 0/10 smoothbrain design, probably just to sell more video ads.

My point was that using the Sun, Earth, or really any object as a reference is arbitrary and the "same position" at two different points in time is completely undefined.

Actually 🤓, position and velocity are relative, so that's a nonsensical statement without defining a reference object for the Earth's position. If we're not assuming you end up safely on dry land, you could just as easily end up light-years away as wherever you were relative to the sun.

I don't see how it could be scumbag. Fear of sharks != fear of people in very obvious and unrealistic shark costumes. People who are afraid of ghosts don't have panic attacks from seeing people in ghost costumes on Halloween.

This comment deserves its own meme.

Not banned. I think it's great that when you copy posts from .ml, you mention the author now.

How would a general strike change anything? The oligarchs know they can wait normal people out. Even if half the population went on strike for a week, the only result would be the people who organized the strike getting "disappeared" so that the dip in profits doesn't happen again. We lost, full stop. Peaceful means will not end Trump's tyranny.

And after 200 years of matriarchy, people would be saying that women are evil and we should have a patriarchy. Whoever holds the power always ends up oppressing whoever doesn't.

 

I just think it'd be really neat to look up and see a smaller moon orbiting the Moon. Optionally, I'd also like the Moon to start rotating at a rate of one rotation per day so we can see more than just one side of it.

 

They work on other instances, just not this one. I saw the other couple of posts about this issue, but they're old and it sounds like it's supposed to have been solved.

Image of the problem in Voyager, but it also happens if I try to open the post in a browser

 

Just hypothetically, if a state decided to stop receiving money from the federal government as well as intercepting and/or stopping federal income tax payments, could they do it? What might the consequences be?

Please be respectful so that rule 5 doesn't get broken.

 

Sidebar doesn't say why, but it does say I have to post, so I guess I'm posting to ask why!
