user-replaceable batteries should be much simpler to replace, not advance phone surgery

I for one, do not want my iPhone to become as thick as my old time Motorola flip phone that had replaceable battery....

I run my phones for at least 6 years it seems....before I upgrade and toss the old one, or keep it as a camera for some use....but no, with they way phones are and how long battery life currently is, etc....I don't need user replaceable with all the negatives that brings with it...

If you are upset about LGBT+, well, do you feel that men should be able to have their own preference in women who are blondes, brunettes, redheads, shorter, taller, different body types? How about women having the right to prefer men with a different build, skin tone, etc, are you against THAT? So, people should also have their own preference when it comes to sexuality, like it or not, it's the same exact thing, personal preference in who they are attracted to. Or, do you feel that everyone should have the exact same preferences?

I don't care what your preferred form of sexual friction is....

I just don't want it being flaunted and taught to grade schoolers...they aren't sexual, they don't need to know about boys sucking cocks...

I may not agree with it, but it is a free country and fuck who you want to fuck as an adult, plain and simple.

I don't, however, need to feel forced to play someone else's "games" with pronouns. You can pretend to be a woman or man or poodle, fine with me, but don't expect me to learn or respect the rules of what your pronoun are.....if you are going to be at the fringes of society, it's up to YOU to deal with it, not me.

A big part of "woke" is having to deal with stupid shit like I mentioned above.

Especially exposing kids to it....keep them out of it and allow innocence to survive as long as it can with them.

Use BlastEm, a Mega Drive/Genesis emulator by Michael Pavone whose nightly builds recently grew support for 32X, an accessory that bolts two SH-2 CPUs onto the Genesis.

They'll make a deal with the king to promote more non woke content.

Well, at least that would still be some progress....

If your web browser didn't store a session identifier in a small file called a cookie, how would Slashdot's server know that you're logged in as ArchieBunker (132337)? Otherwise, I'm not sure where you've mentally drawn a line between cookie storage and "a filesystem" proper.

With the growing ability to run local models at home on your own hardware, especially if you have Apple Silicon computers....I'm wondering if soon we'll see a LARGE drop in subscriptions to the Frontier models?

From what I'm seeing these local models can do what about 98% of the populace needs....and you aren't sharing your data with a corporation that is just sucking up all your data into their AI?

Before Rust can save Linux from AI, wouldn't someone need to save Rust from AI first? The Open Slopware page claims that LLVM's LLM policy requiring a human in the loop is overly permissive.

It's not because you were born different than me. Your body adapts to however you eat. It responds well to your typical diet because that's what it's used to. If you switch to a different diet there will be a short period of your body being confused and telling you to go back to what it knows. Then it will adapt to the new diet, and you'll find eating healthy food feels great.

I consider my regular diet to be for the most part Healthy!!

My blood work numbers verify this...

I like veggies, I try to eat what's in season, I mix this in with a very LOW carb diet...ditching most all grains and leaning Keto towards the carnivore side of things.

I like to cook and most all I consume is cooked from scratch.

Someone rapes your mother, and the police know who it was (and thus his license), but they don't know where he is.

Are you seriously going to argue "it doesn't matter if we could catch your mother's rapist using new technology"?

No..what matters is they get a fucking warrant to then access any information they want.

They should not just have dragnet type data to they can just look through to find a crime.....they should need probably cause, and get warrants....you know, like the US Constitution says?

Crimes go unsolved every day! Serious crimes

That sucks.

BUT....it is still MORE important to protect our constitutional rights,.....dragnets without specific warrants cannot be tolerated.....

ok, if the teddybear eyes were not made in one country the fur made in another the stuffing made in another the packaging made in another then all assembled in yet another.....it would cost 20 times more.. because we can't afford to pay workers to do so..... we would need to find an alternative to the teddybear. like a block of wood or an old sock. do you understand that.....?

Really?

It really wasn't THAT long ago that in the US we did precisely that...we make pretty much EVERYTHING in country....go back to look at the 70's and 60's...etc.

We make most of what we consumed....no reason we couldn't do it again...

The second link (pharmacyknowhow.com) redirected to an advertisement for "Lust Goddess", which appears to be a lewd video game. I opened the link again and it redirected to a page on Amazon selling a cultured pearl necklace.

Prescription medications sometimes do harm. Even so, many drugs prevent far more premature deaths than they cause. That's why we have national drug regulators: to evaluate evidence as to whether each new drug is safer on the whole than leaving the condition untreated.

A longer period of time with those you love, engaging in the activities you find fulfilling,

Drinking and eating steak are two of the most pleasurable and fulfilling activity's I can think of right off to bat....P So, I'll take the steak and alcohol....and it's fun to cook and consume these with those I love....

The MPA member movie studios would probably withdraw their respective streaming services from Vizio's platform on grounds that a user-modifiable free operating system fails to satisfy the "compliance and robustness" rules of whatever digital restrictions management protocol they use.
