They work well enough, Google has just done a very shitty job with their AI. Quite the disappointment considering how innovative Google used to be. Now it’s all about maximum profits at minimum cost for them, and nothing else. Well, nothing else except racism.

What about WordPress? Do they still give free sites on WordPress.com?

It shouldn’t be though. Nothing a company gleans from your use of a product should be available for purchase by any third party. This should have been legislated two decades ago.

Agreeing to location services for the purpose of performing the apps intended use, is not the same as agreeing that the government can track your location on a whim. Where the fuck are the constitutional lawyers who fight this kind of egregious constitutional violation?

We always just play with the assumption that my wizard, who has dedicated years of his life to the study of magic, has the sense required to acquire whatever common reagents he needs along the way without my assistance. For something that requires exotic materials like a diamond, or 500 GP, then I will need to role play their acquisition.

Acquire materials, spend currency.

More likely they’ll close all those bands so that corpos can use them for profit.

It won’t be gone, it’ll be used to ensure the most powerful companies in the country never, ever, have any legitimate competition, and can do whatever the fuck they want. They’ll write whatever laws these companies want. They’ll make it illegal to try to start a new telecom.

Musk says a lot of stupid things.

Too bad, so sad. They filed bankruptcy, so it’s all good now. They’ll walk away with their billions and leave everyone to pick up the pieces.

Another example of why it should be illegal for companies to hold your PII without your knowledge or consent. I’ve never heard of this company, but I guarantee you they have my information. By consent, I do not meaning clicking “I agree” on a 97 page ToS to play a game you’ve purchased, or on some random pop-up on a random website you’ve visited once. This is theft, plain and simple.

“But then how am I going to harass you endlessly for years to come?”

What’s frustrating is that they’re not real discounts. The Club Price is the regular price, and you have to agree to tracking in order to not pay above retail.

There’s usually already an account with that number, so just try it out. You probably don’t even need to actually open an account. BTW, if you do open an account, don’t expect that a fake phone number is going to keep you anonymous. Everything is linked these days. All of the big data brokers are buying and selling information to each other. The second you swipe a card, it’s going to match that card to real information from some random online purchase 95 years ago, and they’ll have all of your real information, including political preferences, address, phone number, all of your email addresses, ethnicity, height, weight, sexual preferences, everything. They have it all, and it’s all linked to every credit card you have ever used.

That’s a great point about the fonts. And Google Analytics, and AdSense, and their jQuery CDN. They have a whole lot of ways to inject their tracking into every site out there.

🎼 Counting all the numbers of the alphabet!

This is a perfect example of why all of these privacy intrusion practices should be illegal. The same goes for services like Gmail. I use my own email server because I don’t want Google reading my messages. But it doesn’t matter, because everyone else uses Gmail, so any time I communicate with someone, Google reads my emails, despite the fact that I never agreed to their oppressive ToS. It’s a blatant violation of our right to privacy.

Ooh, good idea! We’ll just make breaking the law illegal. That’ll solve everything!

That website is complete trash. It won’t even scroll for me. It just shows the badge and that’s all. This is what happens when they’re constantly trying to enforce specific user actions rather than just building a working website.

The page won’t scroll for me. It’s just the badge and that’s it.
