Mongostein , 4 months ago to Technology in X, Formerly Twitter, Claims Indian Govt Issued 'Executive Orders' To Act On Some Posts

I did say “tend to be,” so whether or not a person thinks chairman meow is left or right is irrelevant. No need go full meow now. :p

Because we had a good thing with the internet. It was a free marketplace of ideas where people could discuss things freely and honestly.

However, all the good ideas tend to be left-leaning and now that the internet has been opened up to morons we have professional trolls arguing in bad faith, convincing the morons to work against their best interest. Meanwhile, every good website eventually gets eaten up by corporations motivated solely by profit.

That’s why I think the scales have tipped towards authoritarianism. Now I’ll just sit here and wait for some troll to come call me a commie or something for this comment.

Although, some people seem to be thinking that going full Putin would be a good idea for some reason…

The bullets lose momentum once fired, but the jet added momentum after firing, so it’s more like it caught up to the bullets.

Depends who you give it to.

Your girlfriend or a little kid: cute

That’s a good expansion of what I meant by “who knows…?”

Maybe there needs to be laws in place to prevent devices that don’t need it from having 5G access. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Sure, but that required a partnership with carriers for a legitimate use. I hope none of the carriers would allow use of their networks for things that don’t need it, but who knows?

That would require a subscription to a 5G carrier, which would be crazy expensive here.

I can’t remember which brands, but some have been found to connect to any open wifi network to do it.

I’m still working on this, except I have a hook by my bedroom door for when I’m done doing stuff for the day. I also put a long red lanyard on them to help me find them.

They also switched ten years ago saying it would be “the connector for the next decade” and now the newer phones are getting USB-C.

Anti-apple people are such pants-pissers.
