I know. Unless you have really humid and rusty doors you shouldn’t even need lubrification. I personally I have never needed precise lubrification for doors. But that wd40 oh yes i needed it.

I absolutely don’t go asking around if you believe. And i can’t legally carry swords. Or battle axes. Or even knives in general.

This sewing machine / small mechanism oil is absolutely overkill for the job you’re doing. Some small wd40 usually does it. Fun fact: this is also a good way to keep your tools rust free! It functions well on preventing rust.

Edit: it’s not mineral oil or synthetic lubrificant is it?

I have recipe books from that era and most of them are either excellent and timeless learning resources, or dubious cookbooks with characters that look like they want to poison me. No in between.

I’m either good enough to play a game rather good or absolutely painfully unaware of how to handle it, I don’t have the time to be hateful towards other players at all, not that I want that.

Sometimes you just need to change game or stop playing before acting like a terrible person. Nobody is that terrible they usually learn it. Competitive games are breeding ground for this logic as they reward toxicity more or less openly.

If you’re turned off by this, good. It means you have standards. I know we like to keep mentioning these mw2 lobbies, but in comparison with this they were tame. The hatred on these platforms feels more real than what it used to be.

Having public social media can be useful. And it was always possible even before (oh yes MySpace). My issue is having this eternal access as a proof of existance on you all the time. I am fine with the idea of having a public life, what triggers me is the normalisation of surveillance from subjects who never had the concept of being surveillance actors in the first place.

Not to mention, how many abusive partners are already using this feature already? I guess many more than just jealus couples. Airtags had the same problems, but thera are apps to let you spot them, even than they’re an invasive technology. Position sharing can be invasive too. Even voluntary sharing is probably worse than we think.

There are few cases where i can think this as a useful feature, like incidents or other unspecified situations.

The one thing that stands out is that this is active constantly. It’s not situational. The article doesn’t do a good job at detailing the possible abuses of the function but they’re there, they were the same with gps trackers and airtags. Gps devices are notoriously expensive relative to these alternatives so nowadays only a certain person would use them.

If there’s an emergency it will be known regardless. Levels of paranoia that are not justified; how many emergencies have you been in where an Internet connected device is so important in the shortest amount of time? Or at all. No. You might need a phone. But not an app in particular.

And for long term emergencies an fm/am radio is a better tool than the Internet.

a common way to keep tabs on friends, family and romantic partners so I allow the app to alert him each time I reach my front door. In a disappointingly heteronormative and retrograde move, I’m more interested in knowing when he goes out – where’s he off to now? – and set up my own notifications accordingly. Having grown up with the internet, gen Z are, generally, more comfortable sharing their data online; Snapchat, the social media platform notoriously most popular with younger users, has long incorporated location sharing with its Snap Maps feature.

Does anyone even have a private moment at all? Also if I were to cheat I’d leave my phone in a very specific spot if I can. Faux location services may work, but mostly switching to a feature phone seems to be secret trick that shuts down these app fueled nightmare.

Oh, sorry, the battery is down I had to switch to my old phone for a moment! When did we stop having private moments and thoughts? I like tech when it aides me, but recently it has been feeding off my personal time and even some order of thoughts in ways it didn’t do before. It almost feels like it tries to fix and set up human emotions in ways that are forced.

Do you want technology to replace normal communication and socialisation skills? Or does it even matter to you that it is what happens now. Remember that only a few years before nobody followed you all the day, and even the internet access was relegated to a computer room. How far have we come from that?

If people stopped relying on meta products that much over here I’d be fine. But no, they abuse these tools for convenience. I get it facebook - WhatsApp are convenient, but emails were always better for me. Why force everything into a WhatsApp group.

They can try whatever they want. It literally doesn’t fit. Well I know something about narrow passageways, we have one here that was used to safely get one person at a time in. There’s only space for one person. They couldn’t ram it because it is so narrow and small. If they got at the other side they would be hit. Old towns are filled with this defensive architecture, modern suv didn’t exist. Cities don’t make use of giant vehicles either.

It doesn’t fit in most roads regardless. You can’t drive that thing around, even if you wanted.

You know by now you might have to use crypto for yer sinful games.

I vividly hate these features. I use this service to help me with other languages, now they try to translate everything to me as if I’m a toddler. It makes things very hard to enjoy. Besides the ao voice sucks. Good thing i use newpipe now, and i can choose which audio track to play.

We have a better knowledge of war criminals running away from their doings than serial killer in this region. And i’m serious.

Indeed, sometimes the biggest people are also the most chill.

My theory is that if you’re cute you’re socially protected and the same applies to states and countries. Switzerland is quite the nice place and there are cultural hubs of historical importance, so it has the cute look now doesn’t it.

I know this and i know that political systems in Switzerland are really unique. I think this kind of thing can pass despite the robust involvement of the civil society, mostly because it’s an update on a preexisting law. But this is something I can’t tell as of now.

The more i know about roblox the worse it gets. And i think a lot of what i know is against my will too.
