Beside the obvious don't reddit, it happens alot in the kbin (web app) and lemmy apps too.

I've taken to stopping to randomly copy my comments to the clipboard, or if it's an extra long response, writing it in a different app and then copy pasting it.

I remember somewhere, I believe it was the congressional hearings where they called all the heads of the biggest companies to testify for something...a couple years ago...when Bozos refused to show.

Well, anyways, a congressman asked Zuckerberg why this happens because he doesn't appreciate them listening, through his phone microphone, to conversations hes having. Zuck replies that the algorithm knows you so well, that it pretty much predicts what your going to say at the exact time you say it...were definitely not listening to you from your phone speaker, he says, thats technology we just dont have.

Or something to that effect. 🤨

No, we cant rely on it to fix our problems. Hell if anything it will adapt and then get exploited later on. Humans just ruin everything...

I wish we were better and hope that we will do a 180 and try to preserve what is left, but I wouldnt bet on it.

As much as I'm genuinely fearful of what we are going to endure in the coming years, especially the next generation, part of me feels like we deserve what we get. All we can do is prepare the best we can, cross our fingers, and ride the ride.

It's pretty shitty that we're taking everything else down with us, but it does give me hope that maybe nature will surprise us, and not all will be lost, even if it seems that way.

Does it help that the phytoplankton may adapt?

I mean yeah, it's in a controlled environment, but it seems like encouraging news?

I think alot of people are baffled as to why the Democrats aren't doing the same, or at least aren't comming up with some way to stop it from happening.

The idea is that they take the high road. They don't want to be seen stooping to the rude tactics that the Republicans are using. But, in the end, they just end up advancing the Republicans agenda even further, although at a slower pace.

It's frustrating, and somewhat suspicious.

Ok, look, i have about 300 of these. One for almost every day of the week. Lady (no, not me) is always making an excuse to leave early or not come in at all. Does it piss some people off? Sure, but nobody has stopped her yet.

I would maybe check out Hiking project if your in North America. It looks really similar to all trails, except you have to download particular areas. The drawback is that the user input is almost nonexistent on smaller, local trails. More popular trails have some good info though. This definitely seems like it has promise.

Then theres Farout (formerly guthook) - I've heard this app mentioned alot as the preferred way to navigate trails like the AP or CDT. It costs money, and it's not cheap, but you can download the app and continue as a guest and check put some of the free maps they provide.

I read somewhere that we are going to set up solar panels in space convert the electcity to radio radios, beam it to earth, then convert it back to electricty.

To anyone that wasn't Nikola tesla, that just sounds insane.
