  • Hard disagree. This, like all of privacy decisions, is entirely situational.

    I’m setting out to the exact thing OP is, for both plying my craft, and accessing local community post about resources and events.

    Don’t get me wrong, I fucking hate Meta, but I also hate being unhoused. I’ve spent months going back and forth weighing such a decision’s impact on my situation and determined the value I can get out of it to be worthwhile.

    Your comment is absolutist and absurd, and total turn off for those interested in joining various privacy communities.





  • If you have a SSN, you have a number.

    Well I totally get this entire system is mismanaged horribly designed from the start not even designed for this from the start, exetera…

    Having some kind of standardized way of stating someone else’s trustworthiness when it comes to money lending it’s something that’s just inherit to capitalism as long as you have capitalism simple as that, even if they don’t call it a credit score.

    You’re describing the entire Democratic party. Remember who illegally voted to end the railstrike because “oh no christmas”?

    To what degree and by.what pressures varies significantly, but she isn’t president yet. I’d sure like to find out, rather than get another 4 of less-than-average-length Donald.


  • I can tell a lot about a source’s bias by the question(s) they state and the answer they claim to have.

    Does the answer they give match the question?

    Does the question even have a relevant/importantly relevant answer, or is it unknowable to the point of lacking usefullness?

    Some people would be shocked to realize just how much crap gets caught by those two things, for me at least. Obviously Fox [or really insert your least favorite source] isnt publishing 100% truths, but sources that myself and those with similar ideals seem to more frequently trust, publish crap articles pretty frequently too.


  • I lived the first part of my life pretending to be a man, and then I wised up. I’ll just name my most recent moment of acknowledging that particular distinction in society.

    If a pair of suburban mothers saw a car pull into a nearby space, and watch a man get out of the car leaving the door mostly ajar and walk around to the passenger side of the car, grab a small grocery sack, and walk it to the nearest trash can and back… they might say something or keep an eye on him. But if he absentmindedly were to have also left the radio on loud enough for you to know he was listening to the building up of a particularly spice scene of a romance audiobook and … there would be some discomfort.

    But if they saw a woman in the same scenario, who only made it about halfway to the trash can before realizing, then make eye contact as they ran to turn it off embarassed… well they just giggled and asked what author that was.






  • Your data has monetary value to google. Giving them access, without getting any money from them (or even knowing what ways it will be used) is not something you must do.

    If the app provides enough value that is unique to it, then thats OK, but if a data-respecting alternative exists that costs nothing to download or use, and fits the same (or more) needs, then using it just makes sense.

    If thats not you, then thats ok.

    I also use keep, but thats because I haven’t degoogled my phone yet, so they already have most if not all of that data. Once I am in a position to be able to root and remove google without risking bricking my device (currently unhoused, and just cannot risk it rn), then I plan on never touching the damn thing.

    To each their own.

    Legitimately, the colon, including the part immediately after the anus, is very capable of absorption of chemicals, there are some medicines other than suppositories that are sometimes given that way if needed. And the small amount of mucous it naturally produces through normal function is also capable of dissolving solid particulates for said absorption to work.

    But(t), I don’t think there would be any means for caloric intake to happen, even if the Turkey eventually was dissolved. I could very well be wrong though, I am talking out of my very own ass somewhat!
