You have DNS ad blocking, but not IP encryption or DNS rerouting. DNS rerouting encrypts your plaintext DNS lookups, but your packets are still very much sniffable. If you aren’t using a VPN + DNS filtering/rerouting, you’re not anonymous. Also, if your girlfriend is away from home, she’s probably completely unmasked on the internet. Same with you. Your phone keeps that metadata. Also, Facebook and Instagram all use tracking software that tracks your activity even if you close the apps. It would be wise to delete your facebook and instagram accounts as they aren’t really necessary to live a happy life and they are actively spying on you.

If you really need to share photos, I’d recommend flickr or photobucket, and if you need to talk about yourself, get a blog. Your actual friends and family will find a way to stay in touch with you.

dangblingus,

What does “let’s meet those headlines” mean?

dangblingus,

I tried explaining this to people on facebook in 2010 or so.

“You must be fun at parties!”

Bitch, i dont want to attend your lame ass party where people think they know how math works.

dangblingus,

I’m not sure leftists are concerning themselves with bad faith “all men are scum” debates. Attention seekers and rage baiters on the internet may style themselves as socially and ethically conscious (which is funny that that gets its own discrete political ideology…huh) but no true leftist seeks to divide the working class along sex/gender lines. It’s definitely not a top 10 talking point of leftist politics.

dangblingus,

There isn’t any ethical consumption under capitalism though.

dangblingus,

It was posted by the instance owner, so you’ll have to ask them.

dangblingus,

They’ve been checked for weapons. The clothes would be known to be weapon-less. How do you even have any upvotes?

dangblingus,

Holy fuck Lemmy has been overrun by conservative astroturfers.

dangblingus,

Ethical as in it’s goods and services for currency. Ethical in that no one is being exploited actively. Commerce requires legislation.

dangblingus,

Many people have problems related to income inequality. We went to college, got good jobs, and we still don’t have enough money to maintain the lifestyle we were promised. We don’t live in a socialist country, we live in a capitalist country.

dangblingus,

Capitalism by definition is about exploiting labor and extracting wealth. Commerce is the ethical application of purchasing goods and services.

dangblingus,

Hierarchy is baked into capitalism. Your take is incorrect.

dangblingus,

The word you’re looking for is “commerce”.

But when the game’s mechanic is beating a singular person who’s sitting right beside you, skill matchups dictate the fun. But this is probably why I play Third Strike alone lmao

dangblingus,

Black Ops 3 was always humbling. Hard carrying lobbies all night and then get absolutely wrecked by a team of gravity spikes.

It's funny how google pretends the music on YouTube isn't straight up piracy and everyone just goes along with it

Most people have extremely weird ideas of what’s considered piracy and what isn’t. Downloading a video game rom is piracy, but if you pay money to some Chinese retailer for an SD card containing the roms, that’s somehow not piracy. Exploiting the free trial on a streaming site by using prepaid visa cards is somehow not...

dangblingus,

As long as they get to profit from it and not you, then it’s not piracy for them. If a record label wanted to sue Google, they would have a hell of a time.

dangblingus,

Also Funhaus. They used to be funny, then the shtick got old, then they all started making announcements they were leaving Funhaus for greener pastures…and now they’re all back at Funhaus doing the same old thing. Ehhhhh.

dangblingus,

H3H3. As soon as they got notoriety for their defamation lawsuit against the cringe pickup artist guy, they abandoned making reaction videos and instead became a trashy podcast.

dangblingus,

I can’t even follow the logic most of the time. It pre-assumes you’ve dug as deeply into the movie as they have and have already moved past surface level continuity errors. Also, it got cringey any time they’d remove points for “hot chick moment” or “liking this scene humanizes our channel”.

dangblingus,

At this point, how many different ways can you build a PC then benchmark it, all the while shitting on top tier equipment like it’s for brokeasses? You made a server and put the highest capacity drives in it you could afford? Cool bro.

dangblingus,

The “my parents are so lame” gambit.

dangblingus,

Björk deep cuts. That’ll fuck with them.

dangblingus,

Why is it always the worst rap music imaginable? Like, I’m a hip hop fanatic, old school, new school, trap, g funk, boom bap, conscious, etc. But why is it the most asinine “i took a xanny now i’m fucking your girl” type shit?
