What I want to know about that accident is, which idiot kept spreading the lie that the search teams were hearing “banging noises” every half hour, long after the sub had imploded.
Giving you contradictory orders is standard operating procedure whenever cops need an excuse to abuse or kill you:
Cop1: “Get on the ground!”
Cop2: “Don’t move!”
Cop1: “I SAID GET ON THE GROUND!”
Cop2: “I SAID DON’T F*CKING MOVE!”
But hey, you were being “uncooperative” and that’s what the record will show, even though it’s literally impossible to follow both orders at the same time.
Culture war issues will never go away until people figure out where the real source of their pain comes from. It comes from the 1 percenters. It’s a class war. It always has been.
I thought Fireball’s reaction to Rudolph’s glowing nose was a little extreme. He’s a magical, flying reindeer who lives with Santa and his elves at the North Pole. Surely, he has seen some really weird sh*t.
But he reacts to Rudolph as if his skull had burst into flames.
It’s like Windows is devolving into really, REALLY early Linux, where a single Control Panel application is broken up into a half dozen separate parts and scattered throughout the interface in a dozen separate sub-sub-sub menus.
You should NOT have to hunt for the “print” button in a freaking word processor.
It’s a class war. It always has been. The 1 percenters use their control of the media to keep the poor and middle classes fighting with each other, so that they . . . the rich, can run off with all the f*cking money.
The Internet sucked before ad blockers. In the 1990s, web sites would spawn several ad windows. Sometimes, they would spawn pop-UNDER windows as well, so when you closed your browser, you had a nice big porn window left on your desktop. Advertisers abused the hell out of visitors and if you complained about it, their response was basically, “HA HA! F*CK YOU! HERE’S ANOTHER AD!”
They could have played nice. But once they had a chance to make free money, greed and sh*tty behavior ruled the day. This is how programs like Web Washer were born.
Back before web browsers had ad-blocking extensions, we had programs like Web Washer. It was a local, ad-blocking proxy program that you ran along side your browser. To use it, you just changed your browser’s network settings to point to Web Washer. And the ads would be filtered before they even reached your browser. It would be no problem to implement this again.
This is what “AI training” looks like, folks. The companies developing AI constantly tells us how awesome it is, but it still needs the help of humans to recognize basic sh*t like cars, buses, crosswalks and traffic lights. They didn’t choose those images by accident.
I already tried an Amazon Fire tablet, Amazon. No thanks. I returned it. I don’t need a locked-down console that spies on me. Windows is well on its way to becoming that already.
A big part of getting you to use their app is to data mine EVERYTHING about you. Unlike a web browser with an ad-blocker, an app can collect your location, location history, your call logs, your contact list and serve up unlockable ads.
