o One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.

o The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.

o One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.

o The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one’s own.

o Beliefs should conform to one’s best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one’s beliefs.

o People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one’s best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused.

o Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.

If you believe the above, you too can be a member of the TST!

Alternate RELIGION ( not “religion” ) give women a choice about their body after consulting with licensed medical professionals instead of depending on politicians to decide their choices for them.

Fix the titled for you.

Full disclosure my religion is the TST. Have a certificate and everything!

UNBELIEVABLE!

I don’t have a younger sister I have to share clothes with.

I’d enjoy and update log personally.

And they were never heard from AGAIN! Oooooooo It is horror month, and that’s pretty scary! :-D

None. Don’t connect it to the internet. Get a PC and use the TV as a glorified monitor.

All I hear is

“Government bad! Government bad! Government bad!”.

<crisis that affects me> " WE NEED HELP FROM THE GOVERNMENT".

All while all the other assholes that aren’t affected going “Government bad! Government bad! Government bad!”

And Vance and all the others making up stories and admitting to making up stories to help…just help someone else.

Truth is, it’s all a scam to begin with. So sounds like they’re nailing it.

Also, WHY should I trust Mozilla with this? I use Firefox because it’s the best alternative at the moment. However, Mozilla is degrading that trust by pushing their weather thing, pocket, turning on their ad network, etc.

Like a real reason I should trust Mozilla with this. Any company is 1 executive away from becoming Google levels of anti-privacy. So why would I EVER trust this?

First off, yes, the title of the post is misleading. Mozilla is creating a privacy focused ad system. However, I legit don’t get who this is for.

As a user, I’m not turning off my adblockers. Yes, privacy is important. I’m ok with some ads, but I’m not going to risk my privacy and security, because it’s not like I’ll have a clue who is backing said ads. So it’s not for me.

Normal users have shown that they really don’t care, let alone have any kind of clue what’s going on. So it’s not for them.

Advertisers have huge incentive to show you targeted ads. They don’t want to show someone an ad on the other side of the planet for something they don’t have access to. Also why would they want to show you an ad for something completely unrelated. What’s the incentive for them to give up their targeted ads?

It’s not like Mozilla is poising themselves for any kind of government oversight. I’m in the US, and the US gov doesn’t seem to give a shit. And the EU, while they have GDPR and they’re fining companies left and right, it doesn’t seem like they’re really targeting these kinds of ads. Outside of those two I don’t know anything about other countries honestly.

So again, I have zero clue who this is for or why Mozilla thinks this will be successful. There’s no incentive or knowledge that this is needed.

I use Firefox. I run Linux. I’m not trying to bash Mozilla here. I’m not trying to be a naysayer. I’m just trying to understand what kind of real world use case this solves and incentivizes users and advertises to use it over the alternatives.

Just saw this last night with my family. I almost cried so many times and my wife was actively wiping years away.

It’s such a beautiful feeling movie for the whole family.

While I don’t know Japanese law, and folks are right in US law about prior art, I think everyone is missing the point.

Companies like Nintendo don’t have to actually win. They probably created this patent as a throw away to force Pocketpair to waste money fighting it. It costs tons of money to hire an attorney, work through the process, etc. It takes YEARS.

Nintendo probably wants to waste Pocketpair’s time and money OR they’re trying to get them to just settle and give Nintendo a cut of the profits.

That’s how big tech works with tons of patents and how patent trolls keep leeching off society. I have a patent for a button, you have a phone you’re making. I say give me 1% of your profit. What’s 1% to you? You agree, we don’t go to court and the next person that does it I do the same thing, but now I show them how many people agreed and that person is scared and think I have a legit case.

This shit is constantly happening in the background nonstop.

Patent law, copyright law, they are fundamentally broken. But they won’t get fixed until something BIG happens.

Nintendo is and always has been a bully. This is just another instance of it.

It was a live stream I was doing with Owncast. Definitely enjoying it. Thank you!

Pretty sure Squenix’s expectations for any game is $1 trilliondy-biliondy-milliondy dollars.

Here’s a thought … CHANGE YOUR EXPECTATIONS!

I’d like to know as well actually as I’ve found the same. Maybe I’m just using Organic Maps wrong? But if I am, then am I wrong or is Organic Maps as Magic Earth works so much more seamlessly. Magic Earth website clearly states it uses OSM.

Dang it! Didn’t even think to check … Boo! Organic Maps it is!

Welp, I had no plans of buying Palworld. I’ve been playing Enshrouded instead. But I’ll be picking it up now. Screw you Nintendo and your anticompetitive ways.

Might I recommend Magic Earth?

Organic maps is great, but the search is really finnicky.

Magic Earth has amazing UI, search, it can acts as a dashcam as you travel and that video can pinpoint your place on the map. I’m loving it.
