Body cams film people being shot. Body cams film people being dragged out of their beds in their underwear and detained. And we’re clutching our pearls at some farts and groans that no one is going to watch? If you can’t handle someone possibly hearing you fart you shouldn’t be a cop.

But fine, allow cops to mute the audio. Problem solved.

If they mute the audio anytime they are not in the bathroom it is assumed they are trying to hide something and the missing audio is assumed to be damaging to the cops testimony.

Don’t put mirrors in front of urinals. Problem solved.

Unless you’re going to the bathroom in front of a mirror why does it need to be paused at all?

They thought they were too ingrained in everything for people to leave so they could start enshitfying and everyone would just have to deal with it. They knew they would lose some market share by doing so but are gambling on the increased profits from targeted ads and AI training data would make up for it.

It’s also likely that for a single glorious quarter stockholder value was slightly increased, therefore it was a complete success.

Epic pays a flat rate to offer games for free, they don’t pay per download.

Downloading them just helps Epic inflate their “active users” number when talking to investors.

it’s at least aware of its own state in the same way that your car is aware of it’s mileage and engine condition.

I agree: not aware at all.

If people keep striking every Friday it will be noticed. Sure, it won’t be as impactful as striking every day, but it starts a good foundation to build on while having some immediate impact.

If your votes don’t federate then they have no effect other than you seeing the arrow light up.

Is there an alternative to Google maps that has traffic updates? I want to avoid Google where possible, but last week Google maps warned me about an accident on the highway and saved me being stuck in it for hours.

Correct, so people need to stop expecting the rule of law to protect them and need to start protecting themselves.

Well then, guess you should just keep your head down and submit. All this “2nd amendment” and “don’t tread on me” talk was nothing but bluster. Maybe someone else will come invade the US to introduce democracy for you.

On the one hand we can reduce traffic and the time people need to waste traveling to and from work. On the other hand, this guy can’t keep track of his co-workers whose work has nothing to do with him.

all the team is in Paris and he’s not. They don’t give a fuck what he says.

That’s a leadership problem, not a remote work problem. You handle it remotely the same way you would in person.

The problem with Munchkin is it is fine as a short game. Unfortunately to only strategy is to make the game longer by preventing someone else from winning. If it lasted a set number of rounds and then whomever was the highest level won it would be a better game.

Isn’t Mint a version of Ubuntu?

Using an Aux cable I have to crank my stereo up to be able to hear it even with my phone set to max volume. It doesn’t have an output level that’s a reasonable volume.

And the output from the phone is so quiet even with my phone at Max volume I have to crank my stereo up on order to hear it. Switching input from Aux to anything else without lowering the volume first is what’s going to damage my hearing.

So it would be effective at preventing your site from being used as training data.

Not surprising. I had to remove my credit card information from Amazon because I kept getting automatically signed up for Prime without my consent.

“you have no bills, no job, no agency, no control. You are carried around to familiar and unfamiliar places at random whether you want to or not. Large unfamiliar creatures are constantly around you. You cannot communicate with your captors handlers, they only react when you scream.”

Okay, but the original post is how Grok is taking pictures of children and removing their clothes. That’s not cartoons and not fictional people, so I don’t know why the conversation is being shifted this far away from the actual issue at hand here.
