WAIT A MINUTE!!! You mean Douglas Adams was actually an LLM?

What’s a good FOSS replacement?
More or less like that regarding work. And on weekends it’s nice to go places, and/or have a vehicle to haul stuff. But that’s not everyday. So yeah, common ownership of a vehicle for roadtrips, and/or hauling stuff would be an elegant solution.
LoL, I must be living the ‘life of Riley’, then. My commute is less than a mile, and almost always by bike. And most of my errands, etc can be done by bike, as well. And yet the need for a car in our family is indeed extant.
Thanks, that’s helpful. I’m reluctantly considering purchasing a vehicle, possibly even relatively close to new. The ancient beater I drive when the bike won’t do the job isn’t subject to these issues, and might even be proof against an EMP. Tho’ where the hell I’d get petrol in a post apocalyptic landscape is an as yet unanswered question. lol. I like the idea of the ‘bells and whistles’ of modern conveyances, and do so much in other spheres to limit corporate access that it makes sense to consider how to minimize in the case of a more modern car.
Wouldn’t end-to-end encryption with, for instance, Signal sidestep some of this data collection? Specifically related to text, telephony, video conferencing? Could one use a masked email to put a layer between oneself and one’s car/ car company?
I’m just ‘brainstorming’ as this is a big issue, and I"m sure there are folks that have done deeper study and thinking on these impacts on our privacy. What about using a VPN?
Betteridge’s law of headlines: No.
I haven’t used this in years! TY for reminding me.
I suspect you are correct. And I’m not going to participate in The Experiment. And dang, they are rather cute when smol.
How corporate social media’s biggest user protest, and exodus, rocked reddit, acccording to corporate media - FTFY
More useless “both sides the same” bullshit.
Within reach on my desk, Unisonic LC-384 Dual Power Solar and Battery Backup Pocket Calculator - I’ve not owned it the whole time, so I looked around and see it was produced on or around 1982. It works just fine.
It has a minimal listing in the Calcuseum (http://www.calcuseum.com/SCRAPBOOK/BONUS/32532/1.htm)
Only if the fire has been continuously running. Otherwise you started a new fire.
Aww, so sorry. I mean not really. But hey, Jenna, you’ll get used to being disbarred. It happens to lots of people. Well, no not lots of people. Just mostly the crookedest of attorneys.
“the year twitter died” is passive, and generally not a preferred way to write this, as there are specific actions by one (EM) or several individuals. The active phrase, “the year twitter was killed”, is more reflective of the actual situation, and thus better communication. FTFY.
Cool, so a real Doctor, then. ;-) I had a thing for getting letters after my name, and reached a certain goal, then gave up on the ego.
I’m glad you were able to get the care you needed.
How do you feel about government backed currencies?
