The democrats didn’t earn my vote so I didn’t vote.

This was literally your previous statement. So you can see how what you are saying is confusing.

Did you go out and vote for any other candidates (local, senators, congressmen, school board?) or did you just skip voting all together?

Because if you did skip voting all together then yes it is 100% your own fault. Because I’m sure as shit he didn’t say “don’t vote”, he just said Democrats need to earn your vote. You’re the fuck weed who decided not to.

I’m a fucking Bernie bro and I was not on board with Hillary I was not on board with Kamala, but I sure as fuck went out and voted for both of them because I knew what the hell was coming.

This damage was self-inflicted. And every person who puts up their hand says, “not me I didn’t do this, I stayed home and didn’t vote cause both candidates sucked” is part of the problem and not any part of the solution. You don’t like the candidates? Then show up to the primaries and caucuses, get signs and put them in your lawn and support the candidates you want. Don’t just sit at home and post on Facebook how “everything sucks and it’s not my fault”.

Yeah if you’re going to go hard on protesting, you should probably not be using an iPhone. Literally the least secure phone in the entire universe.

The fog was not the point.

Okay here’s a situation. You’re on a road and it’s gotten foggy and the roads are a bit slick because of the fog. All of a sudden the comfortable 68° temperature you have the cabin set to is causing your windshield to fog up. On a car with buttons and knobs you can just reach over grab it twist a knob or press a button and change the setting. However, with touch screen menus you have to actually turn to look at the screen, taking your eyes off the road in unsafe weather, to find the setting to switch it to defog. That’s just one scenario there are at least a dozen others. Not to mention what would happen when it’s snowing out and you have to take your eyes off the road to search a touch screen for the right setting on anything. Radio, brights, 4 wheel drive, etc etc etc…

Maybe the problem in our society is the people who are only motivated by profit.

Tesla sales were driven by an $8,000 tax credit that doesn’t exist anymore. That company is sinking faster than the Titanic now that the tax credit has disappeared.

Touchscreens are cheaper to install than tactile buttons. That’s the draw for carmakers.

A few, like Tesla, have successfully made cars that act and feel like consumer devices—vehicles with lots of tech features, **** and a steady stream of meaningful software updates. Most are playing catch-up.

“smooth digital interfaces”

Nobody actually fucking wants this!

It doesn’t have to be a “dumb” car. Just don’t route everything through a stupid touchpad. I know it costs more to install buttons but I don’t want to have to hunt and peck through dropdown menus to turn on the radio or air conditioning. And I definitely don’t want a subscription service, that will be canceled eventually, to access remote start.

I have it piping audio to three different devices at the same time. And believe it or not they’re all in sync… most of the time.

Considering the fact that AI based age verification now usually involves taking a head shot and uploading it to the servers of the company, I’m guessing there is an element of facial data collection involved as well.

And then shared it with the rest of us. Way to be part of the problem.

I’m not sure cause I can’t remember which one it was, we have two sisters who are all but identical and I can’t see the collar color in this pic, but it’s either Fei Fei or Bungee. (They were named after my niece’s favorite characters from the movie Over the Moon.)

Is that the same person who made the milk bath advertisements?

Oglaf has set such a high bar for being both horney and funny that it’s something of a mount everest for others to climb to their heights.

I better question in terms of the teeth of the laws is, are there any real consequences to an operating system provider just ignoring them and not providing any kind of age verification in their software whatsoever?

The question I assume will get answered soon enough by GrapheneOS since they have told everyone asking for OS age verification to go pound sand.
