That seems mean to children, they tend to be better then you describe.

I am lost on where this “cope” even is? If russia was winning why would the orange king need to ask Ukraine to stop? What is the cope in this case in these comments? I don’t get it.

Its a valid point though, there is enough out there now to bury anyone in a real nation. In the us they have punished the victims and paid the perpetrators. Its not as if they should not release more info, more that just releasing it does nothing if no charges are laid.

That sounds like he does not have the cards if he has to beg like this.

I think they just hate, nothing is protected even what they claim.

You know how in the movie Idiocracy they used " 'baitin" as a shock factor, and had all the woman characters be demeaned and sexualized?

Somehow, this is a lot worse.

Yeah, and this is how I know you never worked in the random standard production to miss the humor. Its a picture of a tech bro type in a clearly decommissioned closet stressed out about what’s going on, a common thing and always funny. I can just picture the tech on site in the next room replacing a fan on a much less “cool” looking appliance while that guy stresses out on a conference call with the “stakeholders” on his coax nest.

Now that being said I have worked on places still using coax (might still be) and tape libraries, and all sorts of museum pieces well after you would think they would. But I can tell that picture is after decommission since it is clean. If that was in use it would be filthy and filled with so many things that may or may not be important/in use. Fans all clogged running at max rpm, and the smell… I can still smell it now. But then again I was the guy they called to fix shit after the local (often tech bro) it guy gives up so I think I often saw the worst places.

Yeah, but has anyone asked grok about this yet?

The issue is that they don’t care, they sell the data to others and they get to spin it while doing it. Its not selling data (that you are broke) to an advertiser, its the idea of that advertiser falling behind if they don’t buy your data (that you are broke).

unless they’re smart enough to try to connect to any open network they can find like some sort of malware

Uhhhhhhh, bad news there. Many companies have been found to have their stuff make hidden networks and share info these days. I am sure you could figure out a work around if you are savvy enough, but the normal dood? Fucked and pretending this is normal.

Possible that they are piggy backing on other hidden networks. I remember there was a whole thing with Samsung years ago with their stuff doing something like that, and there are a few patents around that propose hidden networks from the “internet of things” days.

I just don’t want to even truck with this nonsense, where the fuck is the line before we just stop using these things? I know there must not be a line, since we are talking about circumventing our shit spying on us like it is normal.

Whoever picked that stock photo needs a raise, chefs kiss.

I wonder if Hugo Boss is still willing to do uniforms? Really bring it right back into a circle.

Oh, that makes too much sense with the moon comments as well…

This is going to get very weird.

Hello, here in Canada we do use the kilogram. I think you are just american pilled into thinking everyone is like you.

We do get tainted by those units down south but its getting better (we used pounds for people since most scales we used to buy are from the stupid states for example). Its still a fucked up mix in someways but no we do use the metric system mainly here (Temps are in C cooking is in grams, distance in kilometers).

Oh I have seen this one before!

I would get in a jonhy cab way before one of these.

Oh crap, sounds like they need an audit!

You are making my point. You have all sat around while your nation stopped being a democracy, and you did turn out to vote but it was for the orange king.

As always with americans you bluster but never seem to even admit your issues. You are in a uniquely terrible situation, and all you want to do is have people stop talking about it or have options. Nothing beyond voting for one of two teams, hell even both parties primary systems are wildly unfair and you all still don’t do anything other then pick red or blue.

The second highest voter turnout since the start of your terrible experiment was 2024 trump. You can’t wheedle your way out of it, your nation voted for the dood. Instead of even admitting the issues at play you cry foul accusing us of cherry picking and tell people to vote “better”. Its a two party system, you ether have the worst person at the top or you have the other guys who know they have no real challenges to their authority. This is very much not an issue in most nations the world over. You just think the world outside is the same as yours, its not.

You think just voting is working? You had the second highest voter turnout when trump got put back in office. Its delusional, but hey you can just come online and swing your smug non existant authority around.

The article itself is talking about issues with your very voting system. And no 80% of nations do not have your “fucking issues”.
