Your tongue knows how something feels even if you’ve never licked it. Most people have never licked a tire but you know exactly how it’d feel if you did.

Cosmic brownies 😔

Look at all these scrobbles!

Just made a dummy account and it only asked for a phone number as a recovery method but happily let me skip it. Full 15gb of storage as well.

What if you patient is your therapist’s therapist?

Never played it but is this an MGSV reference?

For the party of “small government”, they sure like getting in people’s business.

Privacy isn’t restricted to just your data on file. You’d expect some sort of privacy in bathrooms (I assume that’s where these would be installed). It can also set a precedent. Maybe they start tracking cellphone use “ensure students are paying attention”. Maybe they start tracking how often students are using the restroom, especially female students to gather data on their cycles (incredibly plausible depending on the state). Maybe they track their exact movements via school wifi. Maybe they give them laptops to spy on them at home. None of these obviously equate to one another but where does the school draw the line? Rather not have this shit in the first place.

Tell me about it. Horror movies are such a snoozefest but Hereditary gave me the creeps.

They need a friend to jump on the bed

Until one of you puke

Anyone watch MaXXXine?

I’m huge in the credit card game with all sorts of cards but it is a privacy I am willing to sacrifice.

Only very few shops in my areas and mostly just local resturants. So yeah, it makes sense to use cash then but it isn’t the norm around here.

I’ve only seen small/local businesses, sometimes big gas chains, give a cash discount so naturally it makes sense to use cash when I can but it is very few shops still.

Like Orange said, I’m not getting a discount by using cash. Prices are higher because of credit cards so I might as well use them to get 2 - 5% cashback/discount. Doesn’t sound like much but it leads to hundreds of dollars in a single year for me.

I’d love to but since tons of credit cards charge fees to the store, shops increase their prices on menus and items to account for this. On top of the fact that I receive points for purchasing, I’d be losing money if I were to be using cash alone.

PIA also has an open-source client. I think’d need to still purchase a static IP with Windscribe to enable port forwarding. PIA also gets regular audits if I remember correctly. I’m looking for cheap vpns with port forwarding but will consider Windscribe.

Huge fan of Mullvad for the work around respecting users privacy. They are implementing ways of skewing AI-guided traffic analysis. VPN encrypts your data but companies are starting to use AI to look at traffic patterns and help determine what that data is. I won’t pretend to understand it completely so I’d recommend reading their blog about it.

I’ve been eyeing PIA for it’s price and the inclusion of port forwarding but not sure if anyone has experience with PIA.
