1.7 billion happens to be the exact amount that he claimed was an unbelievable, staggering amount of money that blew Iranians’ minds when Obama unfroze it for them.

I tried to figure it out and my best interpretation was that he was wearing only socks at the time, no shoes.

Haha. Always, if there’s someone driving really dumbly I have to take a glance at them when I go by.

Very cool pics. I have a feeling I’d like their selection

Misinformation, bad attitudes, clichéd jokes

It was fairly common in the US decades ago.

Something I don’t get about the video is why they didn’t just edit it to make it seem complete. It’s a totally static scene besides the timer so they’d just have to put in a 9 for a minute.

After smoking… what? What is that?

That’s already been happening.

reported to… ??

Sending someone to a prison in a country they’ve never been to is not deportation.

I’m not really sure what hypothetical is being posed here

People talk about the “dangers of AI” without keeping in mind that AI only has the power that humans grant it. So, could AI start a war? No, the humans stupid enough to rely on the AI system and start a war based on the information it provided would be the ones who did that.

Just what we need, more opinions from incoherent and semi literate people.

They used to be better. I had a lot of success when they were relatively new. However the culture around them has gotten worse and more toxic, and the companies have grown more abusive of customers. Just what I gather… I haven’t tried since 2019.

Tinder was okay for meeting people interested in actual relationships when it was newer. It seemed to turn into more of purely a shallow hookup site. I tried Bumble, and that worked, though it apparently is not as good as it used to be. Never tried Hinge or any of the others.

Thinking more about psychology helped me have success on the apps. Don’t be boring, start real conversations. I got some very good advice once from a friend, which was “if a girl is on tinder, she’s horny”. I was… oh. That makes sense. It helped me be less nervous. You could also say lonely or bored. In my experience it’s not hard to figure out if someone is after the same things as you are. I’ve never used them to just hookup, only find steady girlfriends. I did find some situations more like hookups, casual GFs or FWB though. A few dates fizzled. I’ve gotten together with about 15 women I met on Tinder/Bumble and 6 of them turned into steady relationships. I can’t say they were the most sane people I’ve ever met.

It sounds like it is simply not functioning and prevents your Internet connection from working. I wouldn’t really call that “take complete control of your phone”. It’s a combination of Tor, dnscrypt and Purple I2P. So, it is supposed to control access to the internet. But if it isn’t working it isn’t working I guess. I’ve never used it so I don’t have any additional insight into why not.

I know this dude who started a really half-ass “predator finder” website. It’s kinda suspicious. Oh, and then he started dating a 17 year old when he was 23.

Cheese

Hopefully you have more insight now as to why that is.
