Hell, I remember when they discontinued the front range express. It was a great service that I used frequently before moving to Denver from the springs.
If I recall correctly, the additional complaints are a more recent discovery, so you likely heard about the single complaint long before they found the others.
They found more complaints in what they believe was his house.
That's an interesting point you made about disabling the tracking breaking trust with friends. Everyone is entitled to private moments, and it is strange that friends would feel entitled to your location, particularly when the focus should primarily be about the safety of the group. I suppose we have young people who have come of age in an era when they've had little digital privacy. This doesn't just include corporations and governments but also from their guardians. I could see how this may seem normal to them, but it seems unhealthy from where I'm standing.
Absolutely! We need less water and more emissions!
I find it interesting that agreements with the US (trumps NAFTA replacement from his first term) would be honored. Our government can't be trusted by anybody, including its supporters.
This isn't unprecedented. Years ago, in Colorado, most of the sheriff's offices refused to enforce a law governing magazine capacities, functionally nullifying the law.
Absolutely. Linux in general has become very approachable. I recently came back to Linux after 15 years away and I have been very impressed with how well everything just works. I've only experienced very minor issues with peripherals that were solved with a simple Google search or update.
With it being virtually impossible not to buy a "smart" TV, giving people the option to have connected software that doesn't phone home is a great idea. I wish the average person was more aware of these types of options.
That isn't remotely close to what I said. Wow.
I'm well aware of the issues in the US and caused by the government. Much of it affects me. My point is that Europe, Canada, and Australia have been happy to go along for the ride, as well as causing problems of their own. Now, every time I get on lemmy, I see these same people who have benefitted from these policies and actions saying "fuck ALL Americans," when there are so many of us that have been fighting this bullshit all while actually being victimized by our own government. Now that they're experiencing the slightest inconvenience, they want to cause an uproar and shit on everyone who happens to have been born here. It's hypocritical and gross. You didn't care before, so what changed? The only time I can recall in recent memory when any of these folks actually gave a shit about us was during the Floyd protests, which was certainly appreciated.
Oh? What amazingly wonderful country do you hail from?
As an American, I have no love for my country or its history. Europeans and their descendants around the globe, however, are quite hypocritical when it comes to the US. They have their own horrendous histories and currently do terrible things around the globe. They love to point to the US to take attention off of themselves, all while they enjoy taking US money and benefiting from the protection the US military industrial complex affords them. These benefits allow them to do wonderful things for their citizens, all while my brethren are held in bondage, murdered by the state and white supremacists, and homeless/ starving in our streets. It isn't too dissimilar to slave bonds. Europe condemned American slavery all while participating in the "slave bond" trade. Now they are all in a tizzy and butt hurt because the clown ass president said some mean things and started economic slap fights that primarily harm Americans. All that to say, anyone complaining about the US that isn't from Latin America, Africa, or certain Asian countries is just a hypocritical toddler throwing a tantrum.
Good, ya'll keep your trash, I'm already surrounded and under siege by enough shitty white folks.
Where are people getting this idea that there will ever be any type of trails for this? I've even seen some talking about the Hague, which is particularly laughable because the US has an invasion policy specifically regarding the Hague, predating Trump.
While I do have sympathy with your argument, I also have two counter points:
- Autism isn't considered "wholesome," it is the subject of mockery and common insult, replacing "removed."
- As someone with autism, people with the personality disorders you describe often try to target us for abuse. Fortunately for me, I was raised in an environment that I have a hard shell and fight back, but many aren't so lucky.
Devestating Pyrotechnics... who would have predicted this?
