Been doing it for years now. It’s a very easy thing to do.

I need to go back to this, never should’ve given it up honestly.

The recommendations are hard to beat, but I hate how these moderns streaming platforms make you a passive listener. My most enjoyable music listening days were when I actively managed my music collection.

Self-destruct implies the thing destroyed itself, that’s not the definition of self destruct.

“Self-destructs” — more like is damaged and some buttons don’t work. Clickbait much?

Edit: do you people know the definition of self-destruct? Or are you like the MAGAs, allergic to nuance. My god, the internet is full illiterate fools who only understand “hate on who I hate or I hate you.” What happened to “be accurate.”

The US is a fucking joke. Completely captured by corporate greed. It’s not a democracy and hasn’t been for a long time.

I tend to agree with this. The main thing this does is takes away the profit from criminal gangs. Of course, when people make drugs illegal they don’t realize they are making criminal gangs rich. But, that is the result. Instead, people are thinking of the tweakers and homeless all over the streets, or their loved one who OD’d. And, truthfully, there likely are certain drugs that can never be used responsibly (opioids, meth). For those, society needs to find a way to manage it. Maybe give away the drugs for free in certain supervised spaces. And, forcibly treat people who are high in public. 8 years in prison for anyone that gives drugs to a minor. But, legalize the drugs so murderers aren’t the ones manufacturing and selling them.

Why tax it? Treat it like anything else. High taxes just make people go back to the black market.

🙄 not even worth responding to this. You’re grasping at straws.

I’m not playing fanboy, I’m just not jumping to conclusions and making shit up to serve my political views. Your article is still just speculation. And, rather than being about mass surveillance, it’s about flying aircraft with VR headsets.

You’re being intentionally obtuse to make a political point. I don’t agree with corporations making large political donations, but stick to the actual topic. Name one military contract that Apple holds that involves tracking users. If Apple was about that, it wouldn’t need to wait for smart glasses to arrive, it already could try. But, it doesn’t. Why?

Apple doesn’t do that though. That’s Google, Amazon, and Meta’s MO.

Dude lost a hundred billion. Boohoo. He hasn’t lost enough yet.

No, I had it for awhile, but dropped it around 2017 when the Cambridge Analytica shit dropped and it became apparent why my feed was flooded with crazy polarizing political propaganda that was making people from totally unrelated areas of my life fight each other online. Nothing like seeing a former coworker arguing with your 15 year old cousin over some QAnon conspiracy theory on some post.

70 in the winter. And, and we don’t have AC because most days are cool enough in the summer.

proton owns a service called SimpleLogin, you can use it to setup and manage email aliases. What is mailbox?

Use a custom domain with proton simple login. I set a wildcard regex and just allow <nameofservice>@customdomain.com. I can make up an email on the spot and when they inevitably add me to some annoying mailing list, I can just disable it in simple login.

Ugh, why are they quoting that blowhard David Gerard

The Reddit app and site are bloated bullshit. It’s an insult that they want you to use that. Lemmy with Voyager is the experience I like.

Reddit was killed by spez. RIP. Long live Lemmy! Hopefully it’s insulated from meddling by venture capital.
