Or a good clam chowder

I’ll have a snickers

And here I’m wondering where a 2012 Toyota Supra came from

Not stupid, just too many years on the internet. I thought the same thing at first glance.

It’s worth remembering that much of his wealth is likely tied up in the stock market, so he is probably sitting on a number of vouchers towards a pile of gold, in a addition to the swimming pool at home that he Scrooge McDuck swims in.

Ah gotcha. I just remember that they used to do it for I think the original iteration of e911 and thought they kept it around for other purposes, but I didn’t realize the necessary equipment and financial details involved, so that’s fantastic news. Thank you!

GPS is kind of a tossup since your cellular provider can just as easily triangulate your position with their towers, and there is no escaping that outside of putting your phone in a faraday cage.

Regret

Iirc phone calls and alarms still work after a reboot in the lock status, it just disables biometric unlock and keeps the filesystem encrypted

I keep mine on in case of family emergencies, it’s also my alarm clock

It seems like it’s already beginning. For one, Firefox is getting blocked more and more often as being “out of date” (it’s not) while a chromium-based browser is fine. My VPN keeps getting flagged as malicious (PIA). It’s getting really irritating.

“Wikipedia is not a source, anyone can edit it! You can’t be certain anything on there is true!!”

Now wikipedia is probably the last bastion of decent information online. At minimum, a well-souced article gives you an excellent starting point.

Before MILF was even a term

“Get off the dang computer, your grandma could call any minute!”

My uncle was on Wall Street in the 80s, and he distinctly remembers everyone mocking email as a passing fad later in the decade

It’s almost like the wealthy have always wanted this route. Now that the cat’s out of the bag, they can take the masks off.

Good luck everyone, be kind as best you can and arm yourselves.

Lol no worries. I still browse over there every now and again, unless he handed off his account before he went but I kinda doubt it

He still posts here and there

“…The people can not be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. We have had 13. states independant 11. years. There has been one rebellion. That comes to one rebellion in a century and a half for each state. What country before ever existed a century and half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it’s natural manure. Our Convention has been too much impressed by the insurrection of Massachusets: and in the spur of the moment they are setting up a kite to keep the hen yard in order. I hope in god this article will be rectified before the new constitution is accepted.”

How so? I use the hell out of them, they’re much nicer than using a lock washer
