JK Rowling, Joe Rogan and Elon Musk are fuming over Scotland’s hate crime law
  • So, you like to make "guilt by association" arguments and guess at hidden motives instead of countering someone's actual arguments. Did JK Rowling speak at a Heritage foundation event? Does her views generally align with the Heritage foundation, do you find?

  • JK Rowling, Joe Rogan and Elon Musk are fuming over Scotland’s hate crime law
  • Yes, obviously her evil plan was to pose as a feminist since her youth just to enable a devious undercover attack on trans people late in life. A good thing so many people online are seeing through this malicious disguise.

  • "Nazi" is short for National Socialism, yes, as in social ownership of the means of production in service of the national state. Don't confuse the lazy modern usage of the term "socialism" for the actual historical definition.

    And the whole point OP was making is Rowling and Trump are not working together. In fact, they take diametrically opposed stances on most, if not all, issues. And even if you see the end result as equal, they do not agree on this issue either. Their motivations are very different.

  • I use it to make my phone less appealing and thus waste less time on it.

    Yes, that's what I use mine for as well. I have the apps I need to access daily as shortcuts and all other apps stuffed away from sight.

    Thanks, I'll check Blank out as well.

  • was this not allowed before?
  • I used to work with an Apple fanboy that knew next to nothing about how computers actually work, but he knew that Apple was the best at everything. Any time someone brought up something about a device or service from any other company or with any other OS, his stock answer was always "switch to Apple". Any time someone pointed out that their device offered a feature or functionality they appreciated that Apple did not offer in a convenient way, his stock answer was always "You don't need that." Sometimes he'd add "why would you want to do that? Do X instead".

    Fast forward to today, I ended up killing him and am writing this from jail.

  • Enshittification Continues: Discord to begin showing advertisements on it's free platform
  • As far as I understand, the sole reason is "everyone else is using it". Which also seems to be the justification for using Messenger, WhatsApp, X, Instagram et al despite knowing better. It's hard to be outside of the walled garden if everybody else is inside.

  • AI bots hallucinate software packages and devs download them
  • when WE hallucinate, it's because our internal predictive models are flying off the rails filling in the blanks based on assumptions rather than referencing concrete sensory information and generating results that conflict with reality.

    Is it really? You make it sound like this is a proven fact.

  • Yeee yee
  • How did it come from the left? The "vaccines cause autism" wasn't connected to any political side as far as I'm aware. Just because you're a hippie doesn't mean you're left-wing, or politically conscious at all even.

  • Tips for living an advertising free/minimal life?
  • Give Kagi a try if you haven't already. It'll cost you a little but you can try it for free (100 searches I think) and see how you like it. The advantage of paying for search is of course that you're no longer the product, so no more selling your data to ad companies every time you search something, plus it's actually in the providers' interest to make searching a better experience for you. Just the fact that I never have to see Quora in my search results ever again (I can just block their site) would be worth the price for me. It's just a little thing that made a huge difference for me since I search the web so many times daily, and for a long time now the results has been mostly useless.

  • Tips for living an advertising free/minimal life?
  • Did you try to set your phone DNS to your pihole first as someone suggested somewhere else in this thread? Asking because I also have a pihole at home but haven't set up any adblock (outside of my browser of course) on my phone outside of my home network yet.

  • Nick Drake - At The Chime Of A City Clock

    !

    A city freeze Get on your knees Pray for warmth and green paper. A city drought You're down and out See your trousers don't taper. Saddle up Kick your feet Ride the range of a London street Travel to a local plane Turn around and come back again.

    And at the chime of the city clock Put up your road block Hang on to your crown. For a stone in a tin can Is wealth to the city man Who leaves his armour down.

    Stay indoors Beneath the floors Talk with neighbours only. The games you play Make people say You're either weird or lonely. A city star Won't shine too far On account of the way you are And the beads Around your face Make you sure to fit back in place.

    And at the beat of the city drum See how your friends come in twos; Or threes or more. For the sound of a busy place Is fine for a pretty face Who knows what a face is for.

    The city clown Will soon fall down Without a face to hide in. And he will lose If he won't choose The one he may confide in. Sonny boy With smokes for sale Went to ground with a face so pale And never heard About the change Showed his hand and fell out of range.

    In the light of a city square Find out the face that's fair Keep it by your side. When the light of the city falls You fly to the city walls Take off with your bride.

    But at the chime of a city clock Put up your road block Hang on to your crown. For a stone in a tin can Is wealth to the city man Who leaves his armour down.
