Okay bud. Growing from criticism as in falling in line? Like I did in my youth, that caused me to become ostracized? You know nothing about me, I'm more critical of myself than most are of others, and always happily welcome valid criticism.

I think it's being framed wrongly for the narrative by the guy posting the screenshot.

A friend sent me MRI brain scan results

Without more context I have to assume guy was still convinced of his brain tumor, knew a friend who knew and talked about Claude, had said friend run results through Claude and told guy who's brain was scanned that Claude gave a positive result, and friend went to multiple doctors for a second, third, fourth opinion.

In America we have to advocate hard when there is an ongoing, still unsolved issue, and that includes using all tools at your disposal.

It's one of the reasons the left is less politically successful, this kind of excessive 'call-out' behaviour tends to cause groups to endlessly divide and fight one another (at least it's consistent)

I'm glad at least some people understand this. I grew up in a small farming community in Middle America. I was as left as they come, in my town. Always fought (in the literal sense) racism, bullying, sexism, saw no problem with people doing whatever they wanted to do and being who they wanted to be, this was in the late 90s and early 2000s. None of my opinions aligned with the majority of my peers or my family, and when young was called satanic for being pro-choice, anti-controlling people, pro-do whatever makes you happy as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else. I only had a few friends, all outcasts. Today they're all happily out of the closet. Edit: 1 is straight, maybe, has only ever had 1 girlfriend.

Now as an adult living in the biggest blue city in a red state I have found myself becoming more conservative in some ways, having more conservative friends. In large part due to the unwillingness of many to discuss serious issues without having a falling out over some relatively minor difference of opinion in the grand scheme of things, like not all Republicans being evil racist rednecks who just want to watch the world burn. Most of my family and many good-hearted associates voted Republican in 2016 because it's what was on the ticket.

I used to proudly call myself a liberal but wouldn't dare anymore. I'm sure someone will not read the whole comment and swing in here to tell me that's good, that I'm just a Republican at heart and there must be a deeper reason for this, and to not let the door hit myself on the way out -- amplifying my point.

This only works if you don't want the privacy enhancing aspect of advertisers not tying your activity to an IP address.

Beyond more safely using open Wi-Fi or bypassing a censoring ISP, there isn't much reason there.

I believe they meant to phrase it as:

The OP in this is saying to vote strategically is to survive, which you have to do to change the system.

At least that's what I got from the context.

Glad the city known for its phycists finally got a blue vote in!

No mention of the affected models?

that's ecstatic

I fully agree, I was just making light of the situation and also describing how insane and expensive it is if you want to do something behind their... paywall... workwall...? something that should be able to be sent over email.

I have a Flipper Zero (and case and the extra components) that I'll 99.99% likely never use. I'd love to get cash for it but I'd be asking twice what it's worth because I like having it on 'what if' grounds.

But I feel you, it's unfortunate about the state of things. The EU just banned privacy coins. US is soon coming I'm sure. They won't allow people to legally use them after the release of a central bank coin.

Member when all the companies listed released a PR statement within 24 hours of each other, all very basic and denied allowing the NSA direct access to their users?

I member.

Huh?

We're just curious behind the causation for the tweet. Why won't Apple and Microsoft allow them to update? Is it DRM? Security? Fear?
