“Just poking a hole” is easier said than done, it’s a very difficult thing to get through. A cordless drill would do it, or a brace, a hand drill. But good luck with a pocket knife or something in the field trying to get in one. You could smash it and get a fraction of the water as it spills out.
Also you can tap their blossoms for nectar, and make alcohol out of it, or just drink it.
Coconut milk is different than coconut water. Coconut milk they make from the flesh of the coconut, squeeze it or whatever, the water is flioating as is inside the coconut. They sell the coconut milk in cans for cooking stuff, and it’s white like milk sort of, coconut water is clear-ish.
Two of them went to the hospital for snowball injuries. It’s not even melty snow where it could be an ice ball. The only way they could get hurt is if they hurt themselves when getting pelted, fell down or something, which isn’t someone else’s fault.
They walk into a giant snowball fight and then get mad when they get hit with snowballs. Previous generations of cops would’ve thrown back. These ones fabricate injuries at a hospital to justify felony charges.
In my cars, the steering was physically connected to the wheel. You could lose the power steering, and have to muscle it, but there is no way for hackers, or a software glitch, to make the steering wheel not turn the wheels when it’s turned.
It’s reckless to build it so it’s just connected by electrical signals and software, not even hard wired in so it can’t be overridden? It’s suspect they would want to set it up like that not just reckless.
Huh, maybe I need to wait for firefox to update or for me to restart the computer if they just did it. I’m also running an older version of windows I think, I don’t even know which one actually but they tried to upgrade me for free and I told them no a couple of years back.
Search pages, they removed easy answers to questions from the search pages, the summaries just list part of the question and then… and you either have to click on those websites, usually garbage webistes written to hit those results not be useful, restating the question every which way, saying the same questions in different ways to hit the results, they will keep restating different forms of a question in different manners; then they will explain in exhaustive detail why someone would want to know the answer to that question, then give you a two sentence answer buried deep in the page if you can even find it.
Almost all of them written by machines, and ai themselves. But the only answer on the search page is now the AI summary, it’s presumably their way of forcing us to use it.
I just opened setting on a firefox tab on my computer, clicked on the three lines in the upper right, and the settings. There is not AI controls in there, and searching settings didn’t pull up any ai thing.
This is like when I tried to take gemini off of my phone, it’s hidden, instructions online didn’t work, the links didn’t exist on my phone. It’s still on there, but hasn’t turned itself on multiple times when I somehow swiped or hit something as it did a year ago or so a bunch.
It should be opt in not work to opt out and we hid the way to do that.
Wait so where is this AI on my firefox? I haven’t seen anything, is it running by default, and what’s it doing?
How do I shut it down then? Everyone hates AI so I don’t understand what mozilla had to gain by bringing in AI, or what they had it doing in the first place?
I don’t care if mine gets proscribed, I will quit using it before I verify my identity, even if I could trust them not to let others have my identity. I am currently removing all internet companies that forced me to use my phone to verify my account despite me not wanting that ever.
Except for like my bank, but even then, I want email to work, I don’t want to be locked out of everything if I lose my phone, it’s charge, or it’s service. And it’s not like it’s secure either.
I will switch to the fediverse and wait for people to come to us before I hand them my personal information they use for commercial purposes and give to the government and business interests without my say so.
They have long been banning people for that, I think 15 years have said people have to use their real names, and have froze peoples’ accounts (not letting them delete them until unfroze,) and demanded ID and video of themselves moving this way and that and doing such and such. Even then they’ve denied legitimate users I’ve heard so it’s odd.
But they do target people for using fake names, and it’s getting enshrined into law in a lot of places if we don’t stop them. Lawmakers really want to be able to crush any dissent, whether it’s on their foreign policy, climate change, environmental protests, or soon protests about them, and economic situations. They want age checks identifying every account and ip and palantir type organizations giving social scores and distributing threat assessments to business and government to be used against you secretly in a way you cannot know about or challenge.
Being rolled out worldwide at the same time, surrendering us to tech.
Soon they will do end runs (moreso) around the prohibion on debtor’s prisons and start locking people up for private debts again I bet, and it will evolve into indentured servitude, and being illegal to quit your job if you owe money on a plan, out on agreement with the lender.
Over ten years ago Utah did this already, sharks would buy distressed debt in the state for pennies on the dollar, unrecoverable debt, company sells 1 for .1 or whatever. They then file suit in the big city, in salt lake even as the defendant may live on the other side of the state. When they don’t show up to court they get default judgement, and they get the judge to hold them in contempt, either right then and or later in a collection action. The judge has them held for I forget up to 90 days or something, if they pay they get released, or work out a deal with the claimant. After they are released they can just file another collection action. They get bills for being in jail too but that’s another story.
Owing money to the state already gets you locked up, they treat everyone as choosing not to pay not that they don’t have the money. But people will claim to be owed money, maybe even medical debt they buy for pennies on the dollar, and use it to enslave people, on the road we are heading.
That is just for starters, before they bind everyone to their jobs after people walk off their jobs en masse as they don’t pay for life any longer. Unless something changes here and it sure appears we are trusting the establishment to run the opposition so nothing will change and it’s a little late anyway and a hundred times harder now anyway.
I just use it for marketplace, and when I get on I check the feed and it’s worse every time I get on, glitchy, doesn’t show you friend posts anymore all groups instead, and otherwise just is unpleasant to use. They aren’t making it better either or fixing any of those glitches because they’ve no competition I would add.
But a straight laced guy I know, had his business on there, not breaking any laws, older, got his account removed with no explanation, no way for him to contact anyone, everything gone, for supposedly violating community standards.
We should have rights, we should have a clear set of rules with an appealable process but also legal protections for when the rules are applied unfairly. Instead we have the government and big business pressuring them to apply the rules unfairly or else they will go after them on regulation and what have you. Half the time it’s the government that is the one behind someone getting banned for no good reason, whereas in civilized countries they can appeal unfair actions to a court to reinstate users, as I understand it.
No need to use fancy drugs with a paper trail and permission slips, pennyroyal tea will do the trick, not the oil which is dangerous, just the herb steeped in water. It’s safe, or was, until 2021 when search engines scrubbed those results and replaced them with articles calling it unsafe conflating use of the oil with the herb. Like comparing poppy tea to injected heroin, volatile oils are distilled, and evaporate at lower temperatures than water, so they steep in hot water and draw off the fumes below boiling point, and masses of plant are condensed down to a drop. They are very strong.
The tea used as instructed is safe to induce miscarriges though, or was before the enshitification of search engines, if you consider google to be the arbiter of knowledge. It’s also worth noting woman will be charged for murder for miscarriges, so not leaving a paper trail will be more important, as will not leaving electronic traces, don’t use search engines as is to search for stuff like this if one is going to do such a thing.
Abortion through plants as such, like pennyroyal, a mint, is mentioned in the bible, not negatively either I would add, the entire thing was a cynical play to turn the religious to support big business’ malign goals. Opposing big business is where I’m at here.
The police are just the tool of the oligarchy though. This all stems from a group of the rich that cooperated on a long game to take over the country, to undo the gains of the working class, and return the country to what they saw as the glory days of the gilded age. They aren’t as smart as they think they are though and will land us in the feudal ages, time travel is tough. And be destroyed by the monster they created.
But in 1971 the business roundtable made the first iteration of a long game to subvert the republic, and project 2025 is basically the newer version of that. They agreed to destroy any opposing forces like unions, infecting them with organized crime and federal investigations and bad media coverage, to take the media, to corrupt the regulators, capture both political parties, corrupt academia and the inflation rate itself, the unreported biggest coup of their, giving us a pay cut every year as 50 plus decades of understated inflation has eroded our buying power and handed that to investors by default, without the sheep suspecting a thing.
Anyway part of that plan was pushing The Fear of the other in the crime waves, which I’m sure they helped make worse, as the CIA certainly didn’t help importing cocaine to street gangs in the nicarauga contra, and that’s just one of the ones we know about. They gave unqualified support to law enforcement, and rewrote laws broadly enough to give them the discretion to charge anyone with draconian life ending charges if they want to.
It’s all by design, of the rich, now super filthy rich.
We need police to a degree, it’s just since the crime waves of the late 70s into the 90s politicians used it to stoke The Fear, and it was used to make the police unaccountable, given total discretion and laws allowing them to take down any working person for one reason or another and ruin their life.
We are to trust they use the power wisely, even as cynical malicious politicians and rich people that control them seek to use that police force to further abuse people.
But because of The Fear, which is not enitrely misplaced, even if the system is the one driving the violence underlying it to a large degree, you can’t get rid of police, and you would never get the public support to do so. Even in blue districts, the more experience people have with crime the more they want the police around, people living in the hood in the cities will not support getting rid of the police anymore than folks in the country will.
But we can put controls on them, put their operations back within the boundaries of the Bill of Rights, and common sense and decency, to not write laws so broadly as to give them discretion to charge any person with serious felonies. And to not decide bail on how much money you have in the bank.
Most prosecutors run unopposed, Sheriffs too I bet. City police are unaccountable to those that appoint and oversee them for several reasons, and are often unrepresentative of their communities. They are often rw extremists in blue cities, and there is no reason for fascists coordinating with paramilitary groups in training like counter protesters targeting protests in places like portland and berkely to be running the police departments. Telling the paramilitary groups in training like the proud boys of their movements, of the protesters’ locations, etc. Or arresting the people that defend themselves from those groups but not the victims attacked without cause by those groups.
We could go on, but by electing corrupt local politicians, they can be taken down by the police if they tried to reform them. So as always, getting good leadership is where we would need to act.
Lawyers working for billionaires that want to enslave us.
No I think it’s when you sit in the cuck chair and beat off to the government raping someone while you pretend it’s consensual.
Too much potassium is a problem with some people, I know someone whose tests showed too much and they called up and insisted he rush down to the hospital.
