Smoogs,

There’s an app called “whatever”? Is it the new WhatsApp? Or an app about being indifferent?

Worst to best:

Meet(.)com worst piece of crap ever. It’s on level of human trafficking.

Plenty of fish should be renamed to plenty of flakes.

Okcupid was rough. It took me so many dates and I managed to meet one or two decent people out of say…50 dates. We ended up as good friends and nothing more which was actually really cool. Nice meeting friends. But still, too many people to find one or two decent people to interact with is exhausting.

I had a decent relationship from bumble back in the day.

Eharmony was best so far. You have to pay so it really does prefilter out the flakes and I felt like my time wasn’t wasted as much as other apps. Perhaps it is because people paying for something take it a whole lot more seriously.

Smoogs, (edited )

Yeah it’s very expensive but ngl the people I did end up meeting took dating so much more seriously than the free apps. The conversations had a lot more honesty and such a relief after the bullshit I had gone through on the free apps. Made them look like a joke. I only joined it for a month but for me it was all I needed at that time.

Bumble was decent too. But the selections can be up or down.

Smoogs,

It was a British penal colony up until 1840

Smoogs,

Aboriginals we’re even denied a seat in politics just in the last few months. I remember being shocked they voted in Tony abbot …who for years screamed about women’s menstruation in parliament. Australia is super backwards.

Smoogs,

My favorite is when they ask for help and then interrupt you to tell you you’re wrong

Smoogs, (edited )

Add to that the amount of headphones out there that do help with various ear issues is growing and the prices are not that heavy.

They have bone conduction ear phones now that can be picked up online. Your skull can hear for you now. This is the same technology as what hearing aids use and you can just wire it up as headphones to your phone now

Smoogs, (edited )

but headphones aren’t the solution they use to be.

Not true. There’s air conduction, bone conduction(which is the same technology for people who actually do experience hearing loss), wired, non wired, in ear, over ear, on ear, noise cancelling and these are not that expensive that you can get it online so it’s super accessible.

It’s not the early 2000s anymore where you only get buds or on ear or whatever apple bullshit comes with your phone.

Smoogs,

You know what is hands free? Headphones.

Smoogs,

2 yrs down the road “oh also I’m in QAnon”

Smoogs,

Yeah I saw several variances available on Amazon just in the past week. Might be worth checking out or seeing how they rate

Smoogs, (edited )

I don’t. I’m responding to the argument that headphones are not what they used to be. that is incorrect. There is more selection and varying types should one be selecting a pair.

Smoogs,

What happened when you tried the bone conducting type? What we’re your findings with this one?

My PC is hacked

I just received a call from an indian microsoft technician. He informed me that my PC is sending a ton of error messages to microsoft. Most likely it has been hacked, and he would help me by remoting in and fixing the problem for me. I just wonder… Is it my PopOs or my Manjaro PC that sends all this info to microsoft?

Smoogs,

As much as a person could find a reason to feel sorry for them they unnecessarily verbally abuse people they are scamming and that was a choice they made. Their hands are not clean from playing a villain.

And escaping poverty by putting someone else in poverty …that’s the capitalist game. No ethics is part of the package. They are not victims.

Smoogs, (edited )

So you’re buying that explanation that a scammer is escaping poverty by putting a bunch of someone else’s into poverty?

You just defined Bezos. Lol. You just got double scammed.

Smoogs,

You absolutely should.

Scammers escaping poverty by putting a bunch of others into poverty is the very definition of a capitalist and cancer.

Eat the rich just as you would zap cancer.

Smoogs,

It’s not sad for a capitalist who uses the ‘I escaped poverty’ while sinking others into poverty to do it.

Smoogs,

You are all over this thread harassing people.

I’m allowed to engage in a forum where I talk to other people other than just you. You are not my world and I don’t need your approval.

‘Harass’ said the person who’s obsessed with me… I think you are personalizing this a lot.

I don’t care about your opinion.

Then why are you here talking to me about my opinion ?

Don’t talk about crap you don’t understand.

You aren’t my boss in life. But this is easily fixed with the block button so this is a choice that you made. I didn’t force it on you to either read it or not.

Watch the myriad of YouTube channels that cover the scam industry in India. Some people have their family and lives literally threaten with death to pay debts working for scam call centers by literal gangsters.

welcome to poverty. This is what happens to people who can’t afford care too. Life is not fair to impoverished but that is NOT nor is it EVER an excuse to impose that on someone else.

That is sad.

Scamming someone else is not sad. It’s infuriating and it’s gross when you give it such an excuse as empathy to con or hurt others. They should own they harmed someone.

I’m not putting my hands in the fire for anyone.

Yet here you are.

But that is also the product of an exploitative capitalist mindset.

And here you are infighting instead of attacking the mindset.

None of the people actually making the phonecalls are “escaping poverty”.

Also you: “* Some people have their family and lives literally threaten with death to pay debts working for scam call centers by literal gangsters. *”

It’s the owners of the computers and offices and bank accounts that accrue the scam money who are getting rich. And those people rarely set foot in the actual call centers.

Yeah and if the person on the phone is no longer in debt and the person on the other side of the line is, they benefited. They are still a villain.

Smoogs, (edited )

I don’t for someone who scams someone else and thinks they can apply the exact scenario to the person on the line.

This isn’t a scenario where someone outran a slower person to let a tiger eat them.

They brought the tiger TO THEM full well knowing they are too slow to run.

Smoogs,

Robbed the convenience store and killed the clerk…over a can of tuna?

I’m not sure I could call myself a good police officer at that point. I’m not sure I’d think I was cut out for the job of even defining ‘criminals’ at that point.

Smoogs,

That last one…did you all get SWATTED?

Smoogs,

If they did they’d be a classist bigot not worth fighting. pizza is peasant food invented not for taste but to not starve. If you’re going to so low to gatekeep fight someone for that, that is definitely on the wrong side of history.

Smoogs,

You can speak for your experience with pizza snobs, I’ll speak on mine.

Smoogs, (edited )

Not all food that gets cooked on a pizza needs a fridge. But either way you’re skipping the point. it’s literally leftovers combined, with or without a fridge. Probably even more so without a fridge if food goes bad faster.

The point is it’s a peasant food made of literally anything because scarcity.

So in all fairness to to the benefit it provides there should be no rule that there has to be a pineapple or not.
