A comment I saw recently said if someone is called weird and they agree with you, they are the good weird, but if you call them weird and they get defensive/aggressive they are the bad weird. You are clearly the good kind of weird, and I think everyone else will recognize that if you call yourself weird.

Celeste is $2 right now and is really good.

Oh hey, I remember Mythbusters did a thing on that years ago, got a professional sniffer in who was almost consistently able to detect samples of fear sweat out of a lineup of sweat samples. So yeah, fear smell is absolutely a thing if you know what to sniff for.

I’d hope that’s covered by the definition of corresponding, though I am neither French nor a legal expert so I can’t say for sure.

To answer your question about the insurance thing, yes. Yes, that is a thing that is happening today. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/11/technology/carmakers-driver-tracking-insurance.html

The concern is what other pieces of information are they collecting, and when and who do they share that information with. Does it also collect data on what places you visit, or what kind of potentially controversial information you look up. People are concerned about things like visits to a hospital making its way to their employer and insurance against their will, or a trans person being outed by the ads they are served in front of their family, or maybe that the police will knock down their door because their GPS falsely placed them at the scene of a crime. Or what if they live in an actual fascist regime, and that government comes knocking because they searched for something verboten. Even aside from all that, all this data is inherently your’s, and yet all these companies collecting it are just taking it from you without your explicit knowledge or consent and without you seeing even a dime or what a quick search tells me is a multi-billion dollar industry.

Reading this post makes me so happy that I instantly gravitated towards Linux Mint for my Framework. I’ve been using that distro on it for a while now and I almost forget that it’s not Windows at times with how much it just works (actually it feels more stable than the Windows install I have on one of my other machines).

The entire intro reads like a fucking joke.

She’s not the only one that was there. There were other people there that were murdered and other people there that were raped. Just because one was spared from that fate doesn’t mean it didn’t happen to others.

Speaking as a 23 year old windows user (though one that want to move to Linux eventually), the only one of those that I am is a tech enthusiast. From what I’ve hear Reddit started the same way, tech enthusiasts built it up and then everyone else noticed how good it was getting and moved in.

The link is between the post title and the highlights provided. The box next to the post title should also work. This is assuming you are on the desktop version and not one of the apps though, I don’t know what those look like.
