Was gonna say I love this idea. Now I know what not to buy.

Bittorrent is a file sharing protocol, which isn’t inherently dangerous. The ‘torrent’ contains the information that’s being passed around to allow connectivity to that particular file. This is also not inherently dangerous as that information is very specific and limited… and doesn’t allow any other user to browse the rest of your computer.

What may be dangerous is downloading a file that contains malware or viruses via a torrent. Use reputable sites and keep your security software up to date. Better yet, use a different computer for this activity with a vpn.

Molon Labe!

(Instructions unclear, am I using that right?)

Close enough, yes.

I believe bystanders got some vid too.

Was gonna say, don’t believe anything a candidate for office says when their lips are moving.

Back in 1988 I had a school project with a few people, one of whom came from a wealthy family. The project was regarding the stock market, and each team was given a certain amount of imaginary money to invest, to see who would win out at the end of the semester. My friend with the wealthy family came back with a recommendation from his father, of course, and we won the contest easily.

The recommendation? Put all our funds into Berkshire Hathaway.

I had the golden goose egg right in front of me and never invested a dime.

I don’t think this post said anything about ‘The Game’ backfiring.

It specifically calls out that streamers spoke about exactly what they didn’t want spoken. That’s what the Streisand Effect is.

Congratulations to Game Science for a good game, but it’s business as usual for the C-Suite being completely disconnected to how the social world works.

Perfection.

I absolutely love my fusion hybrid. Hoping it lasts 20 years

I swear I lmao when I first heard they were getting rid of so many cars. It was so obvious they were cutting their own throat.

There’s two types of oil, essentially and I don’t remember what they are called. When oil was easy to get we built refineries for that kind. When it got scarce you could only get the other kind.

The US in its infinite wisdom decided it was too expensive to build refineries for the new kind, so what we’ve been doing is sending the oil we pump to other countries who can refine it, then import the kind we can refine.

You mean, if you actually get a decent writer who embraces the lore, they can potentially write engaging stories?

I mean, Eureka guys… never would have thought of that.

Why do you think he strongarmed Teslas shareholders into that big pay day? He’s known this was coming, y’all. Tesla’s just paying for his misadventure.

I only use Chrome on my work computers for this reason. That being said, google steals the wrong information and it’s from a company, I know they’ve got deeper pockets than me to make them rue the day.

This is exactly how the bridge on a piece of property I used to live on was built. It lasted 20 years but eventually washed out, while I was there, ofc.

20 years ain’t bad.

Came here to say this. If I had an AI buddy that could do all sorts of stuff for me and talk about history all day with me on long drives while making sure I was perfectly safe and secure and basically be my best artificial friend…

I’d be riding that train.

Deepest condolences. The Hospitaliers were where I sent my donations as soon as the war broke out and I’ve been following them for some time.

It takes special people to do what they do every day and I think all of us will only pray harder for their continued safety.

Slava Ukraini.

I liked the latest D&D movie a lot, but I guess that doesn’t technically count.

My father says the same thing about the slim margin of oil companies. That being said, when that slim margin is in the billions and millions of people suffer for it, there’s room for inquiry.
