They are, the small difference is, that they are trying to do it with rat neurons if I remember correctly.

How do you fuck up so badly?

You’re welcome :3

I think you misunderstood me there. It was literally just “input any name” and that name was then displayed with an animation. They did not collect any information about the people who used this.

The contact information were the contacts from the person who normally uses said iPad

About your question regarding the “free coffee”: Always remember, when you have to input your personal data to receive something for “free” youre not getting it for free, but you become the product. Personal information are quite valuable and you should watch out what information you give out and to who you give it out. In the best case they are just using your information to send you advertisements about e.g. their new super special limited time offer. In the worst case they will outright sell your data to data brokers.

While you are at it I also highly recommend UBlock Origin. Probably like the best ad Blocker out there.

One thing I should also maybe add about disabling JavaScript: Some websites “need” JS to have even the most basic functionality. So if a website does not work the way it should he, you should try to (maybe even just temporarily) enable JS for that specific site.

Its not specific to nudity at beaches, but more of a general thing. Expectations about what a body should look like and the extreme focus on a binary gender is incredibly harmful for everyone, since it creates boxes were everyone tries to fit into. When we AS society collectively work on demolishing these boxes it remives a lot of stress for everyone who previously had been excluded by these boxes. Realizing, that bodies are different and that it is no shame to look different from some arbitrary beauty standard, that’s unreachable for most people, is one of the best things that can happen to you.

That’s what liberation from oppression looks like or so…

Well, shaking hands may also come from alcohol (not sure how much that is the case with other drugs too) withdrawl, but idk if those two are different (in the “type of shaking” they exert)

One tip I can give is, that disabling JavaScript (for Firefox theres an add-on called no-script that does this) gets rid of quite a lot of unwanted stuff on websites.

For removing paywalls there are tools like 12feet.io or the internet archive where you can archive websites to remove paywalls.

In theory theres also archive.today, bit they started to redirect visits to their website to Wikipedia to DDOS them, so its better to not use their service.

Mildly related (maybe not), I have had friends who recommend certain medical shows to me to watch. I have given them a try, but then I get bogged down by how overdramatised they are with the music, and “Um… They’re not going to revive anyone with those weak compressions.”

In my last 3 years of highschool I had a class that taught the basics if law. All in all it was a great class, that taught me a lot of valuable information, but it also absolutely ruined every depiction of court trials in movies and TV, since I now know what it looks like in reality.

I work in IT, so if I ever walk upon a tablet (or something similar) that is accessible to the general public my first instinct is to check if they did care enough to properly restricted access.

Story time: Me and some friends met in Berlin last year and while walking through a mall we stumbled across a “presentation” from Lego. Basically it was a giant screen with an IPad connected to it and you could type in your name, select an animation and it would then display it on the screen. Nothing fancy and probably quite fun for kids. However, I guess you can imagine what happens when about 7 IT nerds see an unattended IPad in public. We of course tried to check, if we could get access to other programs we were not meant to get access too.l or exploit the programming in any other way (AS example inserting funny things like “null” into the name field). After some experimenting, we found out that if you pressed for a longer time on the field where you could insert your name the option “autofill” and “share” popped up. This meant, that you could theoretically insert and open files through this and you could also share contacts. This meant, that we just discovered the about 200 contacts, that were saved in the iPad. This meant, that if we wanted we could have just write down information like name, phone numbers and E-Mail adresses. There were also separate groups of contacts called “family” and “work”. We of course did not do anything with it and reported it to the person attending everything, but I think that person did not realised, that its bad to expose all of someone’s contacts to the general public saying things like “It was meant for kids” and “no one would do this”. Well, guess who didnt stop a group of adults trying to break the software on that tablet.

Also I think I dont really have to say, that I usually experience physical pain when I see how movies depict programming or hacking like its something you can do in a few minutes. And its usually even worse, when any form of actual code plops up in a movie and you realise, that they are either doing updates on a Linux system or its code that doesn’t even have a correct syntax and matches the corresponding action even less.

2 was my first thought too, but maybe its better that I didnt had my egg cracking while I was still living with my parents (the funny thing is, that I still had my egg cracking while staying at my parents place between semesters) and going to school.

Bombs are in fact quite expensive, so theres some serious money to be gained.

It happens when you pick arch or Gentoo as your first distro.

Idk, Gnome is quite nice. The biggest downside of gnome is the lack of Settings, but apart from that I really like the look and feel.

If youre new to Linux I always recommend Linux mint. Rock solid Distros that can even be used by your 80yo grandma.

Didnt saw that it already has been posted. Will delete this post.

Thats interesting. My parents have a herd of about 100 Fleckvieh/spotted cattle (Including followers) and I couldnt remember that we ever had a case where a cow had a displaced hip or broken leg, because it has been mounted. We had to cull animals because of broken legs, but those were caused by other accidents.

Thats quite of an exaggeration and this can be counteracted.

It is common, that cows can get hurt by the bull, but these wounds are usually only on the skin (this comes from the bull and other cows continuosly mount a single cow). If the ground however is slippery, it can happen that a cow gets hurt due to slipping when another animal tries to mount her. However counteracting this can be quite easy. Since you as a farmer usually know when a cow is ovulating just put her and the bull in a separate area, that has straw on the ground. At least in germany this is also mandatory (to be exact, its illegal to let the bull walk with the rest of the herd).

After taking a second look you might be right. Its kind of hard to see, due to shitty image quality, but they might have insemination rods.

However, I will not engage in any fundamental discussions about veganism, because its a completely pointless discussion that always ends in throwing shit at each other.

Why do you care if factory farming is bad?

Because I’ve seen it all. I know how bad factory farming can be. I was raised on a farm and therefore I would say, that my knowledge about farming is quite big and I know what farming can look like if its done properly.
