Double-Negatives sound pointlessly made up. The more I look into about them, the more I just think how pointless it is.

Dude, what you speak of is just plain silliness. Do you not understand that in the realm of pirating, you take risks just for simply downloading in what the laws say is ‘illegal’?

There is no such thing as ‘safe’ when it comes to downloading except getting a clue or a suspicion about what you’re downloading and where it’s from.

Again, it is common sense. Pirating is all about risk and reward. Risk, whether you infect your machine or get penalized by your ISP or get fined/jailed for your piracy. Reward, the files you acquire that aren’t a blip on the radar of your ISP and doesn’t contain malware or viruses.

Common Sense. That’s not a joke.

Everyone knows that if I want something, it had better be useful or meaningful. Anything less, I’m discarding.

XMas just makes me feel exhausted and wishing it’d be over. I’ve steadily grown less and less festive over the years. I just can’t get that worked up, every year, over any holiday. And XMas is the worst of it because it’s everywhere all around you. You can’t go anywhere or listen to anything or talk to anyone without it ever being brought up.

I’m tired of the pressure to buy this or buy that. I’m tired of this month long pause with people because of how hyperfocused they are to celebrate a holiday that’s been so tainted by capitalism that any spirit left over has been drained.

Spez knows he is at the mercy of some of these same kinds of CEOs. Then again, Spez only cares about Spez and cares little of the Reddit community.

Grow up and stop being a sensationalist.

To be quite honest, I’ve not made a single bit of effort in making a will, nor have I decided on life insurance nor have I made any arrangements to heirs or anything else. My family is beyond trusting, to me, so that is entirely out the window regarding them. And another thing is that my ‘retirement’ plan is a plan of permanence at my own discretion, so the thought of making a will or having life insurance is on the bottom of a priority list.

My main concerns when I decide my time is up, is where I’m going to be and how much I want to leave behind and for whom. That’s pretty much it.

I’ve not recalled an instance where employers go through your social media. First, it’s none of their business and second, they don’t even know where to look because I haven’t shared or told them. What they should be concerned with is whether I’ve committed any crimes or if I have anything that jumps out at them that makes them consider or not consider me. Social Media should never be a determinable factor.

Any dumb and vaguely open-ended advice. Like “just be yourself”.

What if you’re improving yourself because the real you sucked? Do you just give that all up and return to what you were? Whoever first said that piece of advice, obviously didn’t think it through enough.

Well, OP failed to even detail what the hell model it is. As is the case with 95% of all tech questions where nobody states what model of computer it is despite it being stupid easy to know.

where every computer is just a chromebook

It’s horrible. We already have suffered a decade of Chromebooks and it’s only contributing to e-waste because of how restrictive Google has made them and every manufacturer just falling over it.

We’re already here with cloud storage and it’s already a bad idea. Any seemingly good idea that comes across the minds of tech corporations, they will overwork themselves to make it the shittiest idea ever by their execution.

As someone said - upgrade your storage. No excuse these days why someone can’t.

Republicans.

It’s Google. Of course not.

Nah, you’ll fucking update me anyways whether I want to or not, MIcrosoft.

Let me know when the last time it was, that a petition did anything important on the grand scheme of things. I’ll wait.

I really do not see what the point of them are and I don’t really taste what ‘benefits’ they claim to provide. They’re almost required for a lot of baking and cooking needs. However, I’ve found that sometimes, they can be avoided and the food will turn out fine on it’s own.

Vegetable, Canola, Peanut, Sunflower .etc don’t look or sound healthy to me. I instead use Coconut.

Owning my own home. Most of us are just going to be renting for the rest of our lives.
