This article is a great example of the post hoc fallacy; it’s more likely that people anxious about their heart condition are purchasing wearable monitors at an elevated rate compared to the rest of the population

Thinking is not vandals strong suit

Ok, show us all the free PT content you’ve made without getting paid. What’s that, you can’t pay your rent with PeerTube views, you need a real job you say? Well that’s why there’s no content, creators need to eat too.

Well if that is the case at your specific airport, you’d know because it would say as much on the sign. You know, like it says in the sentence immediately following the line you quoted.

Source: the signs on the device itself at an airport I saw last week, also the TSA website https://www.tsa.gov/digital-id

The photo is immediately deleted unless clear signage is posted ndicating that the checkpoint is undergoing testing as results may be retained for up to 24mo.

Dumbass article, if you go to an airport your face is all over the security cameras and the checkpoints delete your image immediately after scanning so they are the least of your worries.

Yeah who knows with bigots, maybe he thought he’s offering life saving advice. In any case it makes it easy to put him on a block list lol

I know, sometimes I find the best way to embarrass racists or transphobes is baiting them into explaining that they thought their bigotry could stand on its own two feet as a joke

Why’s that?

Good on you for being receptive to their conversation and actually making improvements and changes. Not everyone behaves that way, some people like my friend just become dependent on the help instead. It’s important to recognize that external help isn’t always the solution; that shouldn’t stop us from trying to help initially but it’s important to withdraw it if it’s causing dependency.

The “why not” is that some people actually are harmed not helped by being handed stuff. I tried to help one of my friends who lived with me rent free for a year and by the end he was completely unmotivated to actually get or keep a job, contribute around the house, or even behave pleasantly towards anyone in the house. It happened gradually over time til living with him became intolerable.

I think the term you might identify with more is “gender nonconforming” meaning you enjoy things that are not traditionally associated with your gender, but you’re happy with your gender and body the way they are. If you felt dysphoric/uncomfortable with your body that would be more trans. Hope that helps, whatever you choose to label it doesn’t matter too much just be what makes you most comfortable!

The only people this should ever be used on is the assholes who came up with it. Black Mirror wasn’t meant to be a playbook people!

Damaging an aircraft is a serious felony, and you don’t own the airspace above your house so you legally can’t interfere with them. You think the people at Amazon haven’t thought about this? That thing will be covered in cameras and microphones, you won’t be able to touch it without being charged.

I guess, no one NEEDS a video streaming platform. It’s not like a transportation or a food or power company monopoly, it’s one specific form of entertainment. Try going outside?

It’s kinda like the question of “how big does the body of water have to be before you’re comfortable swimming with a corpse?” Like we all know that’s how it works, but making a direct correlation makes it much more uncomfortable.

You’d better be leaving your phone at home every time you drive that car or you’ve defeated the point

This is the correct answer whenever this Russian intelligence asset opens his mouth.

Wtf would a low level IT contractor turned spy know about that? Quoting Snowden just makes you look like a moron

Haha no worries, I also own a Steam Deck handheld, to make it extra confusing, but I was talking about a Stream deck by Elgato, a little device with programmable buttons.
