That’s good. It should serve as a reminder that you need to abandon a dinosaur push media. It’s a subtle way to punish normies who haven’t caught on yet.

People apparently use installment plans for phone purchases these days, along with a downstream used market, so it’s actually a really apt analogy.
Years ago I might have agreed, but with digital technology having become so central to one’s daily life I find it hard to excuse those who fail to educate themselves about the very basics.
I meant to, but was rudely interrupted by a skeleton swordsman this morning.
My client is configured to reject all non-encrypted peer connections. It sacrifices some potential seeds but is worth the added defense in depth if ever my VPN fails catastrophically. Openvpn client to an obscure VPN service. All media gets passed through clamAV before being accessed.
While on the hunt for treasure, my browser is configured to send DNS traffic over Tor. All web pages only get to load HTML and images, and they (torrent sites) remain perfectly functional without anything else. DDG search with the old tricks ‘1080p’, ‘full’, ‘HEVC’, ‘x264/x265’, ‘ep0_/se0_’, ‘.mkv’ and so on.
I rotate my treasure chests between ships.
I’d make a really awesome candy store clerk too, btw, because I love eating sugary snacks.
Same for cars.
Why do we need a new model every year?
Automotive design has been functionally complete since decades ago.
Based Germans know the inherent dangers posed by Intel Management Engine.
Apparently I would make a really awesome moderator because seeing gore and shit doesn’t “scar me for life”. In fact, I seek it out out of morbid curiosity. Too bad I don’t have the requisite lust for power needed to be a moderator.
Thank goodness the clouds parted and his holy billionaire visage emerged with the gift of [*angelic chorus] vaccines otherwise we would all be dead now (and he wouldn’t have made a 20 to 1 return on investment). Thank god for billionaires and their unquestionable wisdom.
Wake me up when they start producing chips without Management Engine
The schoolyard bullies are fighting each other again.
Horses were domesticated some 6000 years ago. I feel so old!
FWIW you’re talking to someone who doesn’t even have a credit score. You might see such things as a self-handicap, but I consider it an accomplishment that I’m very proud of.
This is because conservatives are technologically impaired.
To be fair, I don’t go around in public telling everyone “I don’t have a cell phone btw”. So I suppose we are easy to miss.
Wow that’s a lot of effort compared to just blocking CSS and javascript with something like uMatrix.
You and I must live in two different societies then. I work with at least two other individuals who also don’t have a cell phone (not just smart phone, but any cellular device), one of whom is also a millennial. My SIP number has never had any issues with online service auth.
If I were stuck in that position, then I would not hesitate to choose the postage method. That being an option does not comport with the assertion “if a person didn’t have a smart phone they literally can’t use it”.
Relevant line for my lazy chadbros who know that reading articles is for sissies.
