The San Francisco medical examiner's office determined his death to be suicide and police found no evidence of foul play.

Does anyone else find it statistically significant how often whistle blowers commit suicide within a few days of releasing information or making a statement?

Oh sweet, man-made horror beyond my compression

This is plainly insane.

The Flying Spaghetti Monster has decreed to me that VPN use is totally cool and his worshipers should feel ok using them. 🍝

Not all home internet is unlimited. In many US rural areas, home internet connections have a monthly cap just like mobile networks do. A higher cap costs more, if it’s available at all.

This hits like a cyberpunk dystopia

Any kind of surge pricing by for profit companies providing basic needs should be illegal full stop

Fixed that for you

Because to them, it is no different. They aren’t making money off what they have deemed ‘out of production’ equipment, so the search for endless profits means they need a ‘new’ machine to be bought at a frequent pace.

It’s about profits, not people. Bottom line rather then bottomless life.

Watching me while I’m browsing the net?

Isn’t this really close to the plot of Fahrenheit 451?

I use a terrycloth robe as my towel. I dry my hair with the back, then put it on and head to my bedroom to get dressed. I’m dry when I get to the dresser.

“B is for Buy-n-Large, your very best friend.”

If your local library isn’t too far, you could go there. Most public library’s have events or clubs they host, ours has it all on a corkboard near the door so people can see what’s coming up. If you pick one, you know what the other people in it are interested in (for the hours they’re at the club or event anyway) and you can use that as a starting point. If one club or event doesn’t work for you, try a different one next time, you’ll most likely meet a whole new bunch of people with a different topic of interest.

Also fascism

This is pure speculation, but since we found Lead caused so many development issues when it was so prominent in everyday life, and plastic has been likened to this generations lead- poisoning, I wonder if there is a link between the prevalence of micro plastics and the increase in ADHD and ASD.

I don’t live in a place without PSN, however I uninstalled because of the malware style anticheat files that a small update tried to sneak into my system. Fuck off Arrowhead and Sony both, no thanks, I don’t need to jnstall that kind of stuff to enjoy games with my friends on PC.

I see someone else also listens to Factually! podcasts.

I find it fun to play my characters with various symptoms of my own neurodivergence. And the occasional NPC in a game I’m DMing will stand out this way as well. I find it adds variety and makes things more real and interesting. A great way I found to include neurodivergence that can have game mechanics tied to it is Limitless Heroics by Wyrmworks, so you could check that out.
