Come to Australia mate

We will send our rejects to America in exchange

Each popularity-contest host is identified by a random 128bit uuid (MY_HOSTID in /etc/popularity-contest.conf). This uuid is used to track submissions issued by the same host. It should be kept secret.

Oh, and by default, IP, unless usetor is enabled

A machine I’d is just a hash too

Can you explain to me how you track Mac address, serial numbers over the internet.

Just fyi, the backend project I made 20 years ago was hardware related. There’s potential reasons to grab this info…

But, if it is a concern, I’m sure they’d welcome submissions to improve the parsing and allow things to be filtered.

In fact, popcon could be used for digital fingerprinting technically

In all likelihood, op never spoke to the manjaro developers either

That’s true… They just need enough to start a civil war (and the entire point by Trump, and the rest of his cronies is to stay out of prison).

And all he needs to do, is start a coup, but not be 100% upfront this time. And he’s been sowing those seeds… He also needs to take over the justice system and the voting system (and he’s been trying to do that too). The idea, like dealing drugs or the mafia, is to try to put measures in place so that other people get blamed

Don’t like it, don’t opt in

Even Debian has popcon

There are lots of benefits for developers to gather telemetry.

Don’t like that? Fork and do your own distro (presumably though you don’t contribute anything to open source, so id expect such people to simply whine and get angry at contributors)

Depends on the country and where it was recorded

In a lot of places, it’s completely legal to record if he’s part of the conversation.

If he was not, in many places it’s illegal

If it’s a public place where there is no expectation of privacy, also possibly nothing you can do

That’s actually true in some of their cases, because they don’t have anything else to offer the family.

I’m willing to bet a lot of these people can’t cook, never clean and are insecure because they jerked around in high school.

Unfortunately for them, I agree. Better educated women are making people like Kirk obsolete. In the past, the only thing they had to offer was steady income, but now that women are often making more than many of them and are better educated, they feel threatened. So the only thing they have left is pretending women are dumb

I don’t think he’ll ban them

That requires actual work

Don’t forget that Trump says things simply to get votes, but he’ll spend his time only doing things that benefit him and playing golf

Banning vaccines won’t benefit him if he manages to rebalance the government to effectively turn it into a dictatorship. More golf time does

Maximum wage only makes sense as a percentage of other people in the company. Ie. The maximum allowed is 10x more than the minimum wage paid in the company

Anything else means the money would just go to shareholders

And obviously, a minimum wage permitted too by amount

Funny you mention that, because that’s actually the argument I brought up.

Even better , toilet paper is stored in the dirtiest part of the bathroom. Tampons they can store at the sinks

Literally just had an argument with a born again Christian who didn’t want tampons in bathrooms… because tax payers would have to pay and it was the parents responsibility

This guy though has no problem with collecting the pension from tax payers or the church not paying tax.

Yeah… I used to sell Apple gear.

When Apple announced the Mighty mouse 20 years ago, everyone was super excited. There wasn’t much info, and we were almost wondering if it was a touch sensitive button on it.

What we got though was a mouse which gave you RSI any time you clicked the right button.

Now, I have a Mac Studio. Every PC has the power button on the top or front. This guy? Nah, lets put it on the back! And the M2 is a professional machine, so lets ship with 8GB ram only… And MAKE IT SHARED VIDEO MEMORY!

And lets stick an ARM chip with no raytracing on it, because thats what people crave

Abuses everyone he disagrees with (including his own teachers)… Reminds me of someone I know (rhymes with Dump).

Also, did someone on Fox News happen to use the word “dunce” recently. 2 years you guys were calling everyone “snowflakes” or whatever… and it seems like now, you guys have started using this word

People like you will either always vote right wing (and lie), or sit on the fence and find problems with EVERY candidate so you don’t need to make a decision (because you like abusing people, and you’ll ultimately find problems with every candidate).

Stop gaslighting everyone. They’re not the same. The fact that you think a convicted rapist/tax cheat/person who incites violence directly, is exactly the same as someone who helped convict people like him, i’d argue is why your professor probably doesn’t like you either (and probably graded you as such).

Apple insider are already framing this as not a design flaw but an advantage somehow

Yeah… I’m wrong. You’re right

I’m sure internationally everyone loves dealing with a guy who breaks contracts.

Gee. I wonder if it’s a right winger. As per normal, it’s totally unlikely…

Mate, you’re just spitting out numbers…

Trump already said f you to our ex prime Minister. You think Trump gives a toss about foreign investment?

If Trump does what everyone expects him to, it’s even possible he’ll get in a position where he loses allies

World leaders in general don’t like trump.

He’s openly being a Nazi now. If it’s a cutthroat win, he’ll start prosecuting anyone he disagrees with to Guarantee control. If it’s a huge win, it’s less likely. Don’t forget, there were a lot of people affected by the Nazis, and he is openly being a Nazi now

But he’ll do whatever he needs to do to have ultimate power.

Don’t think world leaders though will bend over and take it from the golden diaper man… They’ll simply tolerate him. Especially since he has a reputation for breaking contracts.

And he’ll find every excuse he can to not pay either (if we send wool for instance, he’ll find a few grains of dirt, claim it’s low quality and than demand a refund or he’ll send it back).

Don’t underestimate the risk management other world leaders use on him

Congrats mate

I have plenty of friends who just became Aussie citizens.

One literally was less than a week ago

What newspapers are saying and what’s actually happening is two different things

I was joking about asylum, but there are many paths of entry
