The only thing I ever used a scientific calculator for was pretending to pass math class while programming Drug Wars line by line for my entire junior year, then playing it my entire senior year. The teachers thought I was REALLY into math while also really sucking at it.
I found that if I opted out of personalized ads they started showing dick pill ads with half naked women asking my kids if they wanted to get rock hard. Turned personalized ads back on and it’s divorce lawyer ads from my divorce two years ago. Lose/lose.
After 17 years of contributing to Reddit, I got perma-banned after a few warnings about some mild stuff. All of these infractions were immediately after the IPO.
Showing my No Kings med bag including personal self defense in a concealed carry, no CCW state. Gotta be careful out there.
Suggesting a good “Christian nation”would break the Gaza aid blockade for the children.
Suggesting a large limo company in Texas was being ghetto as fuck by strapping on window AirCon units to the sunroofs and calling themselves “luxury”.
The final blow…
That last one contained explicit language but the poster wanted to know what 4chan was like. I tried my best to answer and that was just a time capsule too far.
Anyone else remember when the Chick-fil-a CEO said some weird shit, put scripture on the bottom of their cups, switched CEO’s years ago, donated millions to minority/LGBTQ+ communities, and the boycott still stands? Yeah, I miss those days. Now it feels like FB will gain more users with this announcement and that’s sad.
Such a grift but I will give it to them, charging $47.45 is pretty clever marketing.
Woah, core memory unlocked! As kids, we put DSL on business card shaped DVDRWs and kept them in our wallets. We could take them to the library and boot into DSL, bypassing the software security.
At the time, libraries had outrageously fast internet compared to home. I would plug in my ORB drive and write as much Napster to the tape drive as I could (2.2GB @ 5-8MB/second). I’m sure everyone there had the worst connections because of me.
Great memory for me, thanks! 🙏
I’m speaking from the point of view of the app you gave permissions to collect your hardware data. Y’all are talking like I think a MAC is transmitted over tcp. I don’t need an intro to OSI. Those apps use the hardware data to know if you’re using Samsung, LG, Apple, etc and they store large databases of MAC addresses on individuals. They can even build a local hardware profile to see if you sold your device, to whom, and what device you replaced it with.
I’m speaking from the point of view of the app you willingly installed that tracks your MAC address. Part of the reason iOS11 implemented built in spoofing, but I can tell you right now, I know Tim Apple ain’t on the users side anymore.
Unless they’re spoofing their MAC address, hardware fingerprinting is much more reliable and predictable. It’s easy to watch a MAC bounce all over the country/world in a matter of minutes.
At this point in history, it’s too late to implement identity protections. Your profile is already built, stored, and backed up. They even know your deleted edgelord MySpace account and that you unfriended Tom (you monster). I guess if you were born in a ditch without a SSN, and never signed up for anything, not even a house/apartment, you could go under the radar.
I mean, I didn’t watch this video because I lost interest when the channel started getting really dark around 2020. I just needed a laugh during the pandemic. I didn’t need 4 videos in a row about the end of the world, then a few about the end of the universe, followed by a future civil war. It was too much.
Good things Zootopia two just made $1 billion dollars. Otherwise, they might not be able to afford that fine.
