During my quantum mechanics course in year one of uni the lecturer spent the entirety of first lecture essentially ranting about how all of these “interpretations” of quantum mechanics are a complete waste of time with zero practical application. So you’re not alone on this one.
EDIT wait no lmao the course wasn’t even on quantum mechanics it was on electromagnetism, the lecturer just had a personal gripe against all this quantum bullshit lol.
Nvidia really be out there selling pickaxes during the gold rush. Or, more aptly, selling shovels during the digging your own grave rush.
The silicone type of lint roller would probably feel like an unusually firm silicone dildo and the sticky tape type would probably feel slippery like postage stamp and taste with that sickly sweet chemical adhesive taste
IDK what you mean by “domain host” but the thing about cloudflare ('s most prominent service) is that it’s essentially a voluntary MITM between you and your clients. They see ALL traffic going between your server and your clients. This is not normal. Normally traffic between server and client is encrypted with HTTPS. By using cloudflare’s proxy your are adding a backdoor to that encryption. Your registrar cannot normally see this traffic. Your certificate authority cannot normally see this traffic without issuing a malicious cert. But cloudflare can. And, if they wanted to, they could even inject malware to deanonymize users, spy on journalists, steal data, etc. As a matter of fact, they already do, but instead of calling it “malware” they call it “analytics”, so it’s okay 👍
Cloudflare is harmful. Sure, maybe they’re doing a Good Thing™ today, but who stops them from turning around and selling all of the data they proxy to AI companies tomorrow? There is rarely a good reason to use cloudflare. If you care about blocking bots, there are self-hostable tools like Anubis. If you care about hiding your server’s IP, you can use a VPN that allows port forwarding or rent a VPS. Do not use cloudflare. Cloudflare should not be used. By using cloudflare, you surrender your digital sovereignty for a mirage of convenience and safety.
(Yes, I understand the irony of posting this from a instance that uses cloudflare)
Yes indeed. It seems so far that the best defence is to join utterly unhinged communities and participate in degeneracy so severe that no publicly traded company would want to scrape you. Something something become ungovernable.
which I sometimes need because sometimes I do feel real bad
I kinda get what you mean. Sense of belonging and communication with people who understand you is important, never sacrifice your community in favor of some ideological quirk! Sure, there are good reasons to avoid reddit and discord, but they’re not good enough to cut yourself loose from people who make you feel like you belong!!

Don’t get the new ones tho, they suck. 3+ was the last good model before they drank the koolaid and removed the headphone jack.

Not to downplay the immense effort put in by the devs and maintainers of course. Providing a privacy-respecting phone OS to ordinary people isn’t just a good deed, it’s necessary for a vibrant and diverse digital society. But still, we can all strive for better.
Honestly idk why you’re getting downvoted it has been public knowledge for YEARS that trump is a chomo. Anyone who is suddenly worked up about it only NOW is just following whatever the media wants them to think about, definitely worthy of the microwave soyjak png.
Sounds like a very elegant way to fuck over screenreader users
