Probably b/c if they can’t monetize your data, then they choose to profit from you in other ways. :-(

They would if it makes their food tastier. Yum… infants.:-)

Yup, sounds about wrong.

First and most especially the single most important factor: b/c I thought it sounded cool. 😎

Second, I googled “what does Zaddy mean” - oh wait that was earlier in the day, cough, I mean I googled “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer”, found that it was first aired in 1939, and so put that.

Third, it is a popular meme format.

But mostly b/c it sounded cool (yet is accurate).

Teaching true facts about the world - that some people will never truly love you, only what you can do for them - since 1939.

Regexps are awesome! And also not at the same time:-P. 🎉 Congrats👏!:-)

I thought some of the older ones, like 2000, were more secure, with ability to access on-chip security features. So ofc they threw all that out in favor of 10, the final OS that would come as a subscription service, meaning that you’d never need to buy one again. And then they threw that out too, in favor of the next one… and on and on it goes:-P.

I absolutely hate Windows:-(.

If you were close enough to take this picture, then you were close enough to influence the outcome… I’m just saying… :-)

Makes sense - why allow people to administer their own machines? :-P

Computers mostly don’t force software updates on you, unless you tell them to. (Caveat: IT routinely forces updates on people.) Find the setting where you specifically asked the machine to keep itself updated, and turn it off. If you can’t find it, throw the machine away and get a better one where you can be in control:-P. This concludes my sermon for today, I hope you all have some Happy Holidays!:-P

I’m just going to leave this here, in case anyone needs it… :-D

A study on astroturfing on Reddit, written in the style of Reddit by an astroturfer - oh the delicious irony? :-P

This sounds like something Mothra would say… :-P

If wishes were horses, then we all would ride.

As it is, instead we will FAAFO.

Not just right now - it was probably always that way. At one point those nations needed STEM e.g. engineers to win those (cultural) wars, while now we are gearing up to use robots and AI instead.

Even so, I think the loss of antibiotics is more of a short sighted side effect. It could need a century of development to overcome, but it is more profitable to sell pain relief right now so… it’s a problem for a future generation to have to deal with, so long as I get mine now, seems to be the way of thinking.

It’d be really funny if he had no idea who she was, cause she just grabbed some random stranger:-P

Fwiw, this meme is more than good enough:-)

Thanks for sharing it with us all.:-D

We may look back at these days - you know, where not all diseases kill you, and in fact were super easily handled, barely an inconvenience!:-P - and wish to have such things as “antibiotics” again, before bacteria all became immune to them.

Or maybe the world will rally together, and start funding research into alternatives quickly enough for it to matter? Just like climate change too…

It’s a good thing that people aren’t anti-science now, bc that surely would be a problem if we want to reach that bright shiny happy future we keep hoping for. :-|

Kevin has altered the deal…pray he does not alter it any further.
