Yeah pretty clear attempt from Putin to apply reverse psychology. "If I say I want Biden, they'll vote for Trump, I truly am a mastermind teehee"

I haven't used Google in about 3 years. I use duckduckgo and I just eventually figured out how to use it, you have to be a little more specific but I can get what I'm looking for straight away these days. I'm aware they're not private anymore since they got bought out but I use technology like this with the assumption any data that can be collected, is collected, and will be sold off at some point, so don't search anything you wouldn't want your grandmother knowing about lol.

I suspect people view their childhood and/or late teens through rose colored glasses, they remember the isolated moments of joy without the surrounding context, I remember being stressed about exams, unsure about the future, unsure of even my own identity, plenty of other concerns, but sure I enjoyed a few sleepovers and gaming sessions with friends but when we're remembering those days fondly it is from a safe perspective knowing all those concerns were resolved in a positive way, a survivorship bias, those that "failed at life", became homelessness/suicide(drugs etc), aren't here to reminisce with us all about the "simpler" times.

I know you're joking but mine won't let me uninstall it, and get this, "disable" won't work either! Samsung S9 (quite old now) btw if anyone reading this wants to avoid.
