A potentially good option if you’re on Android is putting it in your secure folder. It’s basically just a sub directory for all your files, notes, and pictures, but it an encrypted form.

So if you’re technical enough to understand jow to enter a password (most people), then you have an easy to use option. Just don’t forget your password, and don’t set it to something easy to crack. It’s the same rules for any other password.

I’m sure there are similar options for windows/mac/ios

But if you’re a more technical user, by all means it is in your interest to encrypt the whole thing.

Absolute worst case you could always keep track of it as a raw text/markdown/excel/Libre calc/whatever your preference is. You’re not going to get any predictions or useful data out.

But it would at least provide a record for your doctor if need be. And as long as you encrypt the device you store it on, or the directory its stored in, it’s relatively safe to do so.

They’re operating under a lot of propaganda, and no understanding of economics. They’re ignorant of the fact that Trump inherited the economy that Obama fixed, which is why at the time under Trump things were better. They’re ignorant of the fact that Trump fucked everything up with his handling of the pandemic, previous tarrifs, and in turn fucked the economy up on the way out. They’re ignorant that Biden was trying to clean up Trump’s mess, and instead assign blame to Biden.

And every after all that, there is still the added fact that the president doesn’t directly control the economy, and has limited options. But that doesn’t matter to them. They’ve been sold a simple solution to a complicated problem.

That’s fair

I think they’re just saying that everyone should have the option and use it.

and it only takes five minutes.

Not here it doesn’t. There are constant intentional efforts to shut down polling locations in communities with a disproportionate amount of minorities. The intent is to force minority voters to travel further to get to a polling place (which may not be an option due to our joke of a public transit network), and to force them to wait in line for hours at a time to vote.

In some jurisdictions, they’ve gone so far with their voter suppression tactics that they make it a punishable offense to provide food and water for those waiting in the hours long lines to vote.

And that’s all before accounting for the fact that many people need to have two jobs to be stable, which makes it hard to get to the polls even if the lines are short.

The U.S. election system is a joke, and a sham democracy.

Ignoring the myriad of other issues listed in this thread, the bit about training AI is pretty misleading. It’s not hard to scrape webpages for whatever kind of data you like, even if loops doesn’t outright hand things over for third parties for that purpose.

And the kind of people who are downloading the entire internet to train AIs are the type to be willing to just scrape without permission.

Hopefully instead of turning into a bunch of e-waste, a bunch of “useless” desktops flood refurbishers, and refurbished desktops become even cheaper. I wouldn’t mind replacing my dying media server.

Not every GET request is simple enough to cache, and not everyone is running something big enough to need a sysadmin.

Near zero isn’t zero though. And not everyone is using caching.

It has nothing to do with a sysadmin. It’s impossible for a given request to require zero processing power. Therefore there will always be an upper limit to how many get requests can be handled, even if it’s a small amount of processing power per request.

For a business it’s probably not a big deal, but if it’s a self hosted site it quickly can become a problem.

GET requests can still overload a system.

Idk, I think the vegan pets thing was pretty far up the list.

Paramount’s video player is ass. I have to fight it to start the video by reloading the page and clicking exactly in the right places. Then the player doesn’t pause when the space bar is pressed. And to top it off, the progress bar doesn’t disappear unless you click inside the window then float the mouse away. Fuck that noise. It isn’t worth it. What’s the point of paying if the service is broken?

Yar har.

They aren’t, it’s just an excuse.

No, they need to have perpetually increasing profits.
