The irony of this meme is what really makes it hilarious

It’s funny when you just read the numbers and it’s like the top pick for a US child is to be 29

This is just the ADHD maneuver in picture form.

Considering the high overlap between Lemmy users and internet savvy people, I would say that we are not a good representation.

Simple answer is no but…

Stock android, like all commercial OS is inherently spyware. Google does have access to it and in theory could do anything, but that is only “in theory” because as far as we know stock android does not come with keyloggers and data exfiltration tools, it spies on you in the way of “telemetry” meaning that Google decided that certain data is useful and so they “anonymize” it and collect it, this data can be: wifi networks, location, phone usage, and more.

So in theory it is possible that stock android either already has spyware to collect personal app data that no one ever noticed (very unlikely) or that google will push an update with such software (somewhat unlikely)

Now if you use other Google apps, especially gboard and google assistant, you are definitely sharing SOME amount of peesonal text with google.

The reality is that you should consider your threat model, which means to consider what kind of risk you are willing to take and what kind you are willing to make a change to avoid. It is perfectly reasonable to say that you are not willing to use gboard or google assistant, but you are willing to use the stock android, understanding that you are sharing some data with Google, but most likely no app data (such as your texts in Signal)

Same thing about choosing a messenger. WhatsApp is made and managed by Meta, a company that lives off of user data. So even though WhatsApp claims (and seems to really be) end to end encrypted, you can still be sure that Meta is collecting everything they can, which probably means: who you are texting, how much, at what time, how much you use the app, location, and much more. Signal is open source and managed by a non-profit that does have a good track record, and because ut is open source you can also choose a different client (like Molly) which further reduces the Signal Foundation’s hold on your chats (if you fear that) So you could say that because all of your friends use WhatsApp you are willing to accept that Meta will collect a bunch of data on you, or you could decide that you are not okay with that data collection and therefore choose Signal. It is up to you. In any case, E2EE is a must as it protects you from unauthorized access from hackers.

Doubt that it would be Meshtastic, it is inherently not built for internet levels of bandwidth. But I can see a future where you have intranets that are free and community driven with something like Meshtastic with higher bandwidth and you still pay for an ISP that can give you access to the full internet (because nothing currently can replace underwater optic fiber)

For relationships: “Is what i’m about to say/do benifical to me, this person, or the relationship?”

If not, maybe it is me ego or hurt feelings, and so I should ignore it for now and if I feel the need to, I can later analyse it and decide again.

Also, never go hungry or emotional to the grocery store.

They are human too! Can’t you see!!?

Shower faster? How long are you in the shower to have time to develop good ideas and have time to forget them?

Isn’t that a terrible idea?

When finding huge sums of cash/gold whatever, isn’t it illegal in most places to not report it?

So best case scenario is that you find it and no one else is looking for it and you carefully use it over years as to not raise a falg for your local tax agency or bank.

Worst case scenario is that you found something stolen and eventually the police finds you and you get caught up in a much worse crime?

Science and Logic day! 23rd of January. Or 12th of March

Celebrations include home science projects, appreciation of scientists and professors, local interactive educational scientific events, etc

The affects would be appreciation of truth and logic which would fight the misinformation issues that we currently have, and it will also serve to educate people and inspire them to seek further education and understanding.

Attaching things, hanging things, making custom items such as a keyring, lifting or carrying things, dog leash if you find a stray, and more.

Rope.

Buy some rope, like 3 different sizes: 1-2mm, 4-6mm and 10-12mm. Watch a few rope videos and then throw the ropes in some drawer. Every now and again you will have an issue that the ropes can fix.

As a kid I once got a 15mm*40m rope for my birthday from my uncle, I thought it was the weirdest thing, but over the years I used it so much that these days I consider it to be one of the best gifts I’ve ever received. And as long as you don’t need them for anything related to safety, they basically cant expire.

• age limit on public representatives, probably the same as retirement
• voting is completely changed to a ranking system https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_transferable_vote
• hire a bunch of actually qualified people to run each office and governmental positions
• a bunch more shit that I dont feel like writing

Yeah no… I was not kidding, literally the second I swallowed the first bite I felt perfectly fine. That can’t be anything related to metabolism.

Maybe, show me a fashionable ghost, I might believe in it.

I once wanted to see how long I can go, at 32 hours I felt like I was about to die so I stopped. Literally one bite made all of the terrible feeling go away and to this day it both annoys me and freaks me out that it was all psychological.

Like seriously brain? Couldn’t handle not eating so badly that you decided to make me feel like shit? But also damn, if that’s how I felt about not eating, addictions sound much scarier now.

So many ways, it’s almost unbelievable that it still works
