Race car drivers definitely don’t put both feet on the gas pedal though… Like, what?

Yep. And I’d argue it’s an almost ethical responsibility for those aware of all this to preserve a media archive via piracy. Sort of like those monks that would repeatedly copy old scrolls before they would degrade or whatever.

Who gets to be the parents in this situation?

Until the idiots all complained about it being ‘creepy’. Ever since the tracking completely continued, but no longer with any benefit to us.

Great job idiots. Why people just don’t opt not to use features they find ‘creepy’ I’ll never understand. They are only satisfied if they bring it down for everyone.

This is true. What I’m saying is I respect the willingness to ‘do it anyway’ attitude.

Canada didn’t leave the UN.

Would be cool if they said fuck you to the EU.

People kept worrying about Canada breaking a UN rule but Canada said fuck it and did it anyway.

Did this actually happen to you? I’ve been to, and even smoked weed in (discreetly), Germany many times as a tourist without issue. It was just annoying that it was technically illegal…but no one ever attempted to drug test me or ask me about drug use at all.

Is this real legalization like in Canada, or fake legalization like most other places?

If a tourist can’t buy it from a store, fly to a different city/state domestically with it, and then smoke it at a designated airport smoking area outside the terminal… I struggle to see that as full ‘legalization’.

If you are prohibited from doing all those things, it just seems like a different version of prohibition. Step in the right direction though, sure.

But… alcohol should be legal, no? Despite the harm it causes, prohibition simply does not work.

Cannabis can also cause harm (albeit less harm than alcohol) but should also still be legal. And other drugs like fentanyl (arguably) cause more harm than alcohol…but should also be legal.

Prohibition is literally never a realistic solution to any drug or drug problems. Not a single country has ever had success.

Dealerships are literally the worst place to take a vehicle for a repair. They are in the car selling business, not the car fixing business.

I think it works well in Switzerland.

Haha same despite not being active at all for months now. In any case, the email explains only residents of the USA are eligible.

Hard to call them stupid when they got to use it for free within the return window. Seems like a good deal. I agree with all the other points though.

Just ordered one. I had no real interest, but once you tell me I can’t have one…I must have one.

If Google specifically denied tracking that’s definitely misleading, but I’m unable to find a source for it and don’t recall it myself.

Saying that the sites you visit track you would absolutely lead me to believe that search engines sites are included. Since it would not be possible to provide results for the search without knowing what was searched for by the user. And where would they send those results to without knowing the users IP or other form of network address? It just doesn’t make any sense to think a search engine would not know who searched for what, since it is required for them to function.

I always saw Google as a website too. So if I type ‘giant donkey dicks’ into the url/search bar, then Google is obviously going to know my preference for large donkey dicks. Since I googled it.

Or are these hypothetical common folk typing in full urls themselves or something? If it’s auto-filling in any way, that’s thanks to Google and they can only provide it if aware what has been typed so far.

Yep, I never switched from torrents as I never found anything more convenient.

Aww man I thought I found one! Guess I’m back down to zero people.

I don’t understand paying for streaming media at all… but I’m from the before times.
