7 because I need more mouse bites

backup plan of 2, brewstew would probably provide some good in flight entertainment, and sitting next to muscle man could be Alright

American Dad is sort of like if the first 3 seasons of Family Guy kept going, but replace the cutaway gag comedy with social commentary. I enjoy all of Seth’s stuff (Including the Orville, still waiting on Season 4 to start filming), although I will admit some of it is not for everyone. I still watch the new Family Guy seasons, but its like eating fast food. You know it used to be made better, and you know there are better options, bit its comfortable so you still do it.

did… you mean bullock?

You could however find a store that does not entertain the notion of purchasing flock AI surveillance cameras.

harm reduction.

Just out of curiosity I did check

Kroger’s Privacy Policy

in select Texas stores we may collect biometric information such as a facial recognition data, when you enter our stores for security purposes, to protect the health and safety of our customers and associates, and to prevent, investigate, and prosecute shoplifting, fraud, and other criminal activities. We provide notice at the point of entry in locations where we collect biometric information.

So, only in Texas and theyre supposedly not trying to hide it ? at least for facial recognition. ALPR isn’t specifically mentioned in Kroger’s privacy policy, although this line implies it’s not entirely off the table

Sensory data such as CCTV recordings from our facilities or premises or photos. Some of our cameras may capture license plate data for security purposes, to protect the health and safety of our customers and associates, and to prevent, investigate, and prosecute shoplifting, fraud, and other criminal activities. We may record your voice when you contact our customer service centers.

its about ea nasir the ancient scam artist of copper.

title says home depot. relevant. if they had said hardware store, then you would be correct there would be no reason to have posted the comment.

I love punching down and downplaying the importance of sharing information.

I will now be using those tools I was talking about. I dont need a privileged baby toddler crying to me about how hard it is to see that someone is trying to spread information that is genuinely useful.

Good job not denying being straight up ablest btw.

Lowes also does it.

The only person being socially inept is the Non-American trying to tell an American that they should not share information of American oppressors with other Americans. The Non-American who went out of their way to call out and use a term that is commonly associated with the neuro-divergent for no reason other than to get a dig in, and make assumptions based on stereotyping.

Sorry buddy, I’m not changing. You are privileged. You are the “White Moderate” that Martin Luther King Jr wrote about in his letter in Birmingham Jail. What you see as an inconvience, others see as life saving information. Again, don’t want to see it? You have the tools to fix it. Use them. You can complain about seeing activism after activism is no longer needed.

Nobody cares

yeah. okay. I’m sure your world view is absolutely the standard and no one ever disagrees with you.

Inside the AI police tech firm whose data is being fed to ICE

it’s your special interest. It ain’t ours.

If it bothers you so much, use the fucking built in filters. Block me. Do not make it my problem that you are choosing to ignore all of the safeguards put in place by the developers.

Post is about someone going to home depot. most people are not reading the privacy policy for the shops they go to. I do. I make others aware.

Not sure how a comment about the store the post is about isnt relevant.

Home Depot uses Flock ALPR cameras to track you. This information is sold to advertisers, highest bidders, and is given to cops and feds for free. Source

I’m ngl the original family guy joke wouldve worked just as well in this meme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alUzaMtvAPk

It didnt come off to me as not believing that anal bleaching =/= white supremacy.

The reason I responded was because I thought it was misinformation. The lecture was because I wanted to get the point across that it will confuse people, and I was personally worried some people may just blindly believe the answer without critical thought. Misinformation kills.

I do want you to have fun though. All people against white supremacists deserve to have fun.

You did say

Kidding, of course.

but immediately followed it up with

If you want a white asshole, you can just express empathy for anyone not white, and one will appear 🤷🏻

which lead me to believe the joke part was unrelated to anal bleaching and the intended joke was Ha, aren’t white supremesists stupid and annoying? which, yeah they are. The topic of white supremacy in and of itself is completely unrelated and shoehorned into the conversation though.

Saying “Kidding”, making people think you aren’t being serious that bleaching your anus is a white supremacist behavior, and then saying “White Supremists will show up if youre empathetic to a non-white” subverts that expectation and re-enforces the idea that you believe anal bleaching is white supremacist behavior.

If the joke was supposed to be set up in a way where you did not actually believe anus bleaching was white supremacist behavior, it was structured poorly. The first part where you said

Justh white supremacy stuff 🤷🏻

wasn’t really even a joke. You weren’t set up to say that and subvert expectations within the context. I’m sure such a joke couldve worked here, but the way it was executed was doomed to fail. Kind of like white supremacists.

Anyone can bleach their anus if they wanted to, its not a racial thing. If anything, the desire to do so would be body dysmorphia, as its an individuals choice due to feeling like their body doesnt look how they want it to. I am all for shitting on white supremacists but unless you have information that links anal bleaching to white supremacy in some form this just seems like you put the cart before the horse.

Actually, Steve Harvey took it

please let me in I beg of thee

massgrave proves my point. The user has to go out of their way to find and run that script.

Linux would just work ootb. No activation needed. Ergo; Linux is easier than Windows.

It’s poor form to say an apple tastes worse than an orange because its purely opinion. Theres no fact. I was trying to show the original reply is nonsensical, because for some, Android is harder than Linux. Android may not be what someone is used to.
