Military’s camera feeds go into memory crystals that automatically unshuffle after like 50 years. That way history is guaranteed to get a full accounting of the conflict, but there’s no possibility of strategic information giveaway.


Army and police get to have non-camera operations of course. They’re still recorded, just not broadcast for whatever delay makes the tactical information obsolete.


I keep mentioning this idea, hoping to someday make it seem less extreme: the government should be under total surveillance 24/7.

Like, anyone at any time can look through any of the tens of thousands of cameras saturating every government building.



I’m just about at my two minutes, so I’ll see you all tomorrow.

Oh what? That was 40 years ago? We’re now doing 20 minutes of hate per day? Okay I’ll stick around.



I wonder how one would find an exhaustive list of porn sites. Using a blacklist seems like a hard problem because of discovery here.


Keep people safe … by encasing them in packing foam and feeding them through IV tubes!

Everyone knows freedom is anti safety. And safety’s number 1!


The harder a law is to enforce, the more that law is a boon for an expanding surveillance state.


Dude your name is literally Dark_Arc. Just accept that your destiny is dying in a static electricity fire


We should make a law that any process which requires continuous attention for safety reasons cannot be a venue for advertisement.


I’d really love to help out providing that kind of info. I’m an Uber driver so I’m out on the road all day.

What’s an app I can keep on my phone to add OSM tags. Are those tags stored in a single resource shared by everyone, like a blockchain or something? Or are there separate competing sets of OSM tags?



What sucks about charging stations is they don’t have:

  • trash cans
  • squeegees to clean my windshield
  • a portico to keep the rain off my head
  • a little convenience store with coffee and snacks

“Place your GASOLINE in the tank”


I have an electric car and the result is a loss of 20% of my income in the form of time spent twiddling my thumbs while the thinks slowly accumulates charge.


If a company’s being smart, deviating from the universal enshittification will earn them market share.


There is some artist who uses this kind of “road sticker” that is damn near impossible to remove. All that artist does is put a little sticker down of a stylized humanoid form, but that sticker on a fuel pump would probably withstand weather and attempts to remove it.


In that case I reward the one that did the thing last.

For instance, when Safeway removed my ability to mute the self checkout instructions, I stopped shopping there and only went to King Soopers.

KS decided to also remove the mute option, but I’m still loyal to them because fuck Safeway for moving first on that.


AdVantage

See everything through a lens … of ads!


Why not just replace the windows entirely?


I hate ads on the outside of windows. And they give the little pinholes, like that’s supposed to be enough. The world becomes a blur. Out the window is the least anxious place to look on public transport, but they put ads all over the windows, and give us this pinhole grid crap like it makes up for it.


Anything encrypted with the private half can only be decrypted with the public half, and anything encrypted with the public half can only be decrypted with the private half.

This is not true. In key pair cryptography, the public key used only for encryption and the private key is used only for decryption.
