Could very well be Gendo, because he’s spearheading the whole operation. The country and its government are two separate entities
Gemini24601@lemmy.worldOPtointerestingasfuck@lemmy.world•This Email from Hillsdale College.
2·4 months agoI decided to take the Hillsdale college course on “communism” just for fun, and it’s some of the same rhetoric. Communism is bad because… (shows Revolutionary to Stalinist Soviet Union and pride flags). Marx and Engels were actually hypocrites because they are bourgeois! (Technically true for Engels, but he used his class for good as a way to further communist ideals.) I’d actually recommend this course because all it does is strengthen your left ideals.

Privacy@lemmy.world•Smart TVs taking snapshots of your screen and phoning home - Is there a list of IP ranges to block?English
71·4 months agoI disconnected my smart tv from WiFi and just use my own home network. By setting up a static ip address on both my tv and media server through the eXXXX device, and connecting the two via Ethernet cable, I can access any media I have saved on the server from the tv with little to no lag. This allows the tv to continue being “smart” to some extent, but only with the addresses I specify. It’s also arguably better since Ethernet speeds are usually 100+mbps for me against 2mbps wireless speeds.

Privacy@lemmy.world•I'm being forced into using Life360. Is there anything I can do?English
0·4 months agoThe issue was extremely non-negotiable, and the person wouldn’t listen to reason. Therefore I ended up following advice best I could by creating a new dedicated email for the Life360 account, and additionally using initials instead of a full name. Because I’m stuck on iOS for now, I have no option but to constantly track my precise location in the background. My VPN does not work with location spoofing on Life360. I’ve turned off any data collection/analytics in the in-app settings that I could find, but that’s probably only scratching the surface of how much more you can’t control or disable. I mourn the loss of the privacy that I’ve sustained for so long, and my battery as well; it has taken a massive hit since Life360 was installed. I may look into a cheap wireless plan to support Life360 on a secondary smartphone, but otherwise I’m just going to have to wait until I have the opportunity to get a Pixel for GrapheneOS until this issue is truly resolved. In the meantime I’m considering getting something like a faraday bag for externally blocking phone signals. Thanks for all of your suggestions.

5·4 months agoI love that idea, but it would probably cost money because of a second SIM card. Maybe I could look into buying a prepaid card

A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•US Border Patrol detained a nursing mother and separated her from her infant daughter to the point that she needed medical attention as a result of not being able to nurse

I created separate panels for the widgets at the top of the screen, giving them a separated appearance. I think it’s useful because they grow or shrink depending on the content, maximizing screen real-estate

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Crazy idea, a phone setting that when enabled changes touch sensitivity settings to be more selective of touch inputs while in the shower..
3·6 months agoI’d be too paranoid to use my phone in the shower, it’s covered with cameras and microphones and may be full of backdoors as well.

I’ve wondered that myself, but I’ve come to the conclusion that transgender individuals seem to value their privacy more than the average person. This is all due to increased cyber bullying to them online. Linux is well known for being free from data collection (except Ubuntu) and corporate greed, so it would make sense if this was an operating system of choice.
Yes this Greentext introduced me to Casiopea and jazz fusion, Mint Jams is still my favorite album of theirs. Other notable works of the genre include Miles Davis’s In a Silent Way, Masayoshi Takanaka’s On Guitar, and ISSEI NORO INSPIRITS’ BEAUTY.
