  • It probably wouldn't hurt for you to start carrying an emergency bag around in your trunk on outings like this. It doesn't take up much room and could safe your life. Some food and water and something warm (clothes, sleeping bag, or both) could really go along way, esp if rescue can't come immediately and it's really cold out there, or you need to hoof it out.

  • Side note: I had no idea about this!

    Jokes on them. I literally can't make up my mind about what I'm trying to say and delete half of what I write multiple times before rewriting it. They must get so annoyed. Haha. I've always wondered how they respond so quickly though...

    Also, that's not cool. I could write sensitive information in there before deciding it would be best not to do that. Yet, they can still see it. It would be nice to have a way to put a stop to that. If for nothing else, but for ignorant people like me.

  • I connected Bluetooth to my car, and first thing it asked was if I wanted to allow access to my texts, call logs, and contacts.

    I admit, i think I did it once. It acted like it didn't work. Idk. It periodically still asks though. It doesn't do this if I connect my phone to the car through Andriod Auto.

  • “If I don’t do everything right, then my kid will end up living on my couch forever or be a serial killer. … I don’t know if or when I’ll have what it takes to be a ‘good’ parent."

    These are pretty much the words I've heard spoken. Especially when there's a lack of a support system / a support system you trust to help raise the kid right. The fear of permanently screwing up some poor soul is real.

    I think stability is a pretty big factor too. It's not just owning a house and having a job that pays the bills. It's about being in a place where you feel able to really give the kid everything they will need, emotionally and monetarily, in the long term. If one can't count on a job to see the humanity in people, or even pay a living wage, how can they trust that their employer won't let them go if their "metrics" go to crap, or that they wont just drive them insane. It's nice to think you can leave the baggage at the door, but I've definitely been employed at places that have permanently changed me as a person, and not for the better.

    Obviously, everyone has their own reasons for not wanting a child, but, at its core, it's our screwed up society and what it demands from us, with so little of a return.

  • There are already some southern states that will test and prosecute for miscarriages, especially if they suspect drug use is involved.

    Brittney Poolaw in Oklahoma was the most recent publicized case of this, but at least 1200 cases have been recorded in the past 20 years or so.

    But, now that so many states are banning abortions, and by way of that abortion drugs, we'll absolutely see a huge uptick soon enough.

  • So, they've "abandoned" WEI, but are now pursuing Android WebView Media Integrity API instead.

    As a complete novice, that has a very limited understanding of how Andriod WebView operates or how prevalent it is within the system. (I gather, it's a base to build browsers on?)

    If I was an Andriod owner that used Firefox, how would this effect me? Would this be any different than using Chrome or something like Vivaldi?

    Thanks!
