Comment About time (Score 2) 87

I've been taking aspirin after a couple of strokes about 10 years ago. In the last 3 years, compounded with a deviated septum, I've been having increasingly critical nose bleeds. Impacts my life in every way possible. After 3 ENTs told me, "You're SOL. Can't do anything for you", I stopped the thinners 3 months ago. No more bleeds. I can work out again. I can walk on the street without my nose exploding. Eat in a restaurant. Have a beer with a friend in public. I can't tell you what a difference it makes. My doctor? She dismissed me as a patient for not following her treatment recommendations.

You can call yourself the Right Hand of All the Forgotten Gods for all I care. You ceased being relevant after all the shit you've pulled finally came to light publicly. Now you're just a cautionary tale, and a distraction. In fact, I regret the time I wasted writing this.

Oh well... 90 seconds I'll never get back. And never miss.

No, but their website needs an archeologist to sis's our wtf they're doing. Broken links, links to the most uninformative and apammy-looking Pages outide Russia, and obvious bs.

After trying to navigate it, it's obvious that anyone donating money has more money than brains, and couldn't be arsed to do proper research.

There's slashvertisements, and then there's whatever you'd call this.

I'd call it doomed.

Here's a thought - run it on April Fools Day. Maybe withb the pink ponies theme. Then we'll be forewarned not to take it seriously.

Reading from the summary and the submitters profile, botvvery much.

They want some space for an office, to park a bus inside, and a "museum."

2,000 square feet minimum.

In other words, they don't have a real office or anything else, because 2,000 square feet is nothing, and if that's what you're looking to expand into, you're most likely running out of your home.

The museum idea is bs during covid, and probably will remain so afterwards. The bus? Park it outside and stash any crap in a monthly rental storage locker.

Because this is a stupid idea, and if after decades it hasn't gained traction, it never will.

Times have changed, if we want nostalgia we can watch reruns of old tv shows.

They're tracking you without you clicking on an ad. How do you think they sell personalized ads?

By removing the identifier, when your device hits Facebook servers, they can't personalize the af.

When you see a "share with Facebook " icon it's already too late. You've been identified.

To prevent this in Firefox, disable downloading images and disable JavaScript.. It'll never hit the server.

Because the web is the weak point of the internet, web browsers are the weak point of the web, and JavaScript is the biggest security vulnerability of the web browser.

Neither individuals nor corporations have any right to come into court and ask that the clock of history be stopped, or turned back, for their private benefit. - Robert Heinlein

Try telling that to Trump. His latest brain farts this week were seeing if DHS could seize the voting machines where he lost (nope, lack of jurisdiction) and asking if the military could rerun the elections where he lost (too late, no authority to, etc).

Pitiful senile old man who has nobody left to bail him out - not his father, not Douch Bank, not Putin.
