  • Tracking & profiting off it.Forcing people to be tracked to use a product that they then sell that data should be illegal without your complete, informed consent, and you get to opt out and still use the product.All tracking should be regulated. You own your personhood 100% and only you can make money off of that.

  • My masculinity is so fragile I must have vroom vroom to let the world know how "manly" I am.I really must you guys.You guys, I'm sooper MANLY!

  • Oh damn! If the suckerburg empire is already censoring Pixelfed, wait until they find out about Loops.Fakebook is not a social media site, it's a place to stalk and scam people, just like the other suckerburg tracking apps.

  • Install a Linux Distro. Connect to external monitor, plug power into wall.Use it for a dedicated torrenting machine or use it as a test machine for whatever you like. If you kill it, whatever.Otherwise I would just take that SSD out and recycle the machine.

  • I use my "smart" tv as a monitor to stream. It has never connected to the internet and it does not pester me.

  • Agreed!

  • It's always nice to read good news.

  • Not for a dumb tv but I own a newer Vizio. I actually use it as a huge desktop monitor through HDMI. The actual tv itself has never been connected to the internet. You could connect a streaming stick (roku, amazon, google) if you wanted to. I stream everything from the net. Vizio has a horrible "free" streaming tv service that tracks you. But you can still use the actual tv in other ways if you don't connect it to the net. It will act as a dumb tv.Until we have a federal privacy law that allows us to opt out of being tracked on every device, you have to "work around" the problems.

  • Had you purchased a Samsung this never would have happened!!

  • It's larger than 6 olympic swimming pools and fits in my pants.

  • All google products are spyware. Although technically they should be called "trackingware".

  • Let's play Global Thermonuclear War.

  • We don't actually know. It's possible that winter becomes the norm on most of the planet if we muck up Earth enough. Mother Nature will not be defeated by us mere humans.Technically teslas will die before any other vehicle because of electricity.

  • Your post-apocalyptic vehicle won't last beyond the 1st salty winter.You're gonna need to catch a bus to the Thunderdome you tesla rubes.[laughs in Tina Turner voice]

  • I highly recommend Kubuntu. I don't use any snaps though. And I always install the LTS version. Been using it for over a dozen years.

  • But they are both bat shit crazy, so looks mean nothing at this point of de-evolution.

  • I really liked Mint at the time, but only the KDE version, and would never have left if they hadn't stopped supporting it. They had great nVidia support. I no longer have nVidia on any of my computers because it's just annoying to fight with that mess.Plus Linux as a whole has better driver support than it used to.
