Snowden is in exile because he proved that this is not the case. My understanding is they are not supposed to do that with domestic, but data don’t care about that and agencies spying on citizens knew that, and snatched it all up once they left us soils, up in the air, bounced overseas, all justification to spy without a warrant. Nothing has changed

Other then the experts, whom ever they are, the rest have no clue

So i don’t know if the AI is weighted to suppress truth. From my looking on my local run version 12, it seems to just have a hole surrounding critical events in China. This makes sense if it was trained with data inside the national firewall. When asked about this missing data or when you bring up the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre, it will admit that it is ignorant and that it might not be a reliable source for information due to the situation of its creation. And honestly, that frank admission is appreciated.

I’m not totally convinced that protests matter at all. Riots seem to be much more effective. And labor strikes. If you can file a permit to protest then you already know that it’s permitted because it’s not a threat to the system.

For me i went with WraithGear because i personally feel that i am not here, or real, that i am just piloting my corpse around. It crossed with my thoughts on gaming due to making an xbox account and all, and i have a framed art cell of metal gear acid on my desk, and it all kinda clicked. Its gear as in metal ‘gear’ more so then a cog.

Its a world where the clean up of souls is differed to designated souls who for one reason or another can’t pass on. These souls are given a new body and are assigned to a cell to replace the one who reaped them. They are told a location, a time, and a name. And have to find the person about to die and pull the soul out before they are killed, else the soul brings the trama of death over with them. In the protagonists case she is put in the “freak accident death” group. Which reap people who are indirectly killed by demons mostly. It’s forbidden to reach out to your family for obvious reasons, but due to her mother HATING the word “moist” and considering it a sex slur, she leaves behind a message saying just that and the mother instantly catches on.

Are you a “Dead like me” fan? Its the code word you set up to let your family know your not dead yet.

It took me three hours to decide upon mine, this was back when i needed one for the xbox 360. I literally sat there on the set up screen, and thought. You should see me struggle with character gens.

Weight lifting is slightly less efficient due to friction and heat generated by pully system, and the vast amount of weight and space needed may limit available storage possibility and scalability. But its simple, and safer.

I mean… i like money, eating, sleeping in a house… but i already have a job. Sometimes job applicants can’t be so choosey. And job applicants currently don’t have leverage. Not saying this is a GOOD thing, not at all. Its just cold truths.

I can guarantee they don’t hire a person to look over the applicants who don’t agree.

I guess because declining means your application will not be screened, and you will not get the job.

Sir, this is a social media.

AS-mongol-D. It took me a hot second to see it

Ah a plague of grapes enjoyer, perhaps?

Maybe, but to those who romance would appear naturally when in a friends group, they would not be in this position in the first place.

Good advice, but from personal experience, romance does not come naturally.

So a standard cable needs to be chipped to show its rating to the device, its not that the device can pull what it wants or can get, but the cable itself tells it what it can supply. Extension cables can’t do that, because it doesn’t know what it’s plugged into, and that would be if they even bothered to put a chip in. They instead piggy back off the chip for the main cable. The problem comes when you you have a 240 watt cable hooked up to a cheap 120 watt cable, with the device being told it can push 240, and starts to super heat the extension cable

If you spent that much, but are hesitant about getting work done on it, try watching this guy. Sometimes it helps getting a look at the repair business. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ids3_Kxmi_I (this is just a random video, but he has some with refinishing) Or let it keep the ding, the first one is always the hardest with these things, but you got it to play, not the look nice. Accept life and its imperfections

I may be mistaken, but there was talk years ago about regulating lead bullets. They were to switch to steel ones and it caused a whole story about ammunition becoming more expensive and started a run on lead bullets. If true, wile there would be this collected leads ammo, steel would be more prolific. But there could be some other contaminate in shooting, or some other reason. But i fear that this is more of a problem of the human condition then any outside factor
