Garage tech startups where the garage belongs to your already upper-income-class parents

Somebody should redo this but with Hanks’ actual arm and then a skinny geek-arm :-)

One of the things it asks permission for when hooking up Bluetooth etc is “call history”, “contacts” or “text messages”

I’d assume the system needs those to read it messages or call/redial. It wouldn’t need OCR to do other things with that data

I can’t recall if I limited to Google’s IP’s or not actually. Just that I wanted to prevent their devices from ignoring the DHCP provided hosts

I setup a NAT rule that redirects anything going to the Google DNS IP’s send sends it to my own DNS server.

There’d be a 180° and people would start claiming that the political leaders were controlling the aliens rather than the other way around

I’d try and convince them that politicians are a race…

Most have Eurocentric accents because those are the areas the various legends and stories originated.

Various depictions of leprechauns make them pretty much Irish rednecks. I love Mad Sweeney’s depiction in American Gods.

-force -recursive but I like the way you think

Except that rising interest has also fucked up the market for builders who are now producing even less houses

There are three reasons that “good landlords” seem to be scarce:

• People tend to be more vocal about bad experiences than good, so we’ll definitely hear more about the bad ones

• Many people decided to become a landlord because it outpaced other “investments” greatly, especially if you’re a shitty landlord who doesn’t put profit back into maintaining said “investment”

• Many of the good landlords that did exist and weren’t gouging eventually got hit with a bad tenant that cost them a lot of suffering and $$$ while being extremely difficult to evict. Whether it’s true or not, I still hear current ones who say they’re charging [crazy amount] to pad for the eventual $20k bill when a bad tenant wrecks their place (and these days it’s not hard to do $20k+ in damage)

Also per the comic: I’ve never heard of anyone tipping a landlord, good or bad

Yeah as soon as you go with the term “Zionist” that pretty much gives away your agenda, bud.

Nice. I’d kinda like to see games like Minecraft become more like the Fediverse, where you could walk between worlds hosted on different servers in-game

I’ve had windows do this to me randomly before, especially if it’s an interface that comes up a bit late. Be careful that it doesn’t change back on you

That’s a great explanation of the terms. Thanks for that.

Given this, can you think of a word that would describe those who are hostile to the concept of a deity? Antitheist, perhaps?

Yeah, I don’t find any religion I’ve ever run across appealing, but I have no beef with those who do good under the umbrella of their religion and don’t try to beat on others with it.

And? You could take the same data and say- “religious persons are less likely to speak out againstmessaging that potentially promotes harm” (likely also dependent on the religious affiliation of the messenger)

The preceding message that this makes atheists the more “intolerant” group is a pretty massive reach, consider that the messaging they may be against could in itself be one of intolerance as per my example.

Also, what is the relation of “a speaker” to religion? If somebody comes in to speak and starts talking about how we need to gas more jews, stop women from voting, and put the blacks back out in the cotton fields then fuck yeah I’m gonna support cutting them off and sending them packing.

Sounds like what should be called an “open box” product to me
