Looks good, thanks for the tip. Personally I like Herrie by Ed Schouten.

This is most definitely the Netherlands. More specific the “Afsluitdijk” (referred to as Zuider Zee Dam).

excuse me?? I’m being honest and truthful

That’s unfortunate because your posts make you look very dishonest. In one post you are unfamiliar with basic topics and in the next you seem to be well informed about some of their obscure failed projects.

If you’re not a paid actor then you’re someone who just likes to provoke people online which makes you an asshole as well.

The $2,000 Phones

So, just regular phones then.

No it isn’t, but Google has ways to bump headlines with their name in it : )

Buying a phone that is able to store your music locally is definitely a solution

So, Google is now in charge of image ownership. Cool

They’re apprehending ALL of your browsing activity to their lucky vpn provider of choice.

But you don’t. Because you don’t.

Nobody does. Windows is closed source and its inner working is a trade secret. This means you cannot know how to lock down windows. Of course there are best practices based on info from microsoft or people who know a thing or two about info sec but it’s all guess work and/or trusting the developer by its blue eyes.

It’s “all your mail is now redirected to a third party that makes money by mining it for data without you knowing” level of nastiness. Absolutely deplorable and a reason to never touch anything made by the people behind Brave even with a ten foot pole. Brave is a scam and why people pretend its not is beyond me.

Youtube only serves ads on its own website and apps. Just saying. . .

$10 would get a you a CD where the 3rd track is also the last.

Huh, I’m not a squirrel expert at all but I understood that they’re pretty good at remembering their stashes.

The function of an ad is to manipulate your behavior. If an implant can do this directly ads aren’t needed anymore.

On some mobile OSes I guess? Not on stock Android (AOSP) I’m afraid.

I totally used an adapter like that. It did have a raspberry pi in the middle, though.

And in Tetris’ case it’s about actually copies of a game. Not just some license to play under ever changing terms.

This. I own a Mojang account because I paid for minecraft (I thought) and I cannot play anymore because apparently I bought an account and not a game.

I don’t think intimate details about a person is a companies intellectual property.

Religion is about control and people exploiting this are 100% sane and know exactly what they’re doing. That’s the scary part.
