i changed my mind about gun ownership sometime in the last two years

i used to think that like, sure i get that it would be nice if nobody in the world had a gun, but the cat was out of the bag. and remember when the covid lockdowns started? there were lines around the block at gun stores. it just seemed crazy to me to be the only person without a gun, like what if shit hits the fan?

i think i changed my mind around uvalde, because like, that event made it pretty clear that guns dont really contribute to the rule of law. all guns did in that scenario was allow cops to kill a child an hour after he murdered 21 other children.

i really had to kind of re-evaluate the pros and cons. sure guns would be great if, in the 0.05% likelihood event that society turns into mad max, i need to murder my neighbor for tomatoes so i can delay getting scurvy for another week. but in the meantime every single time someone has like a fucked up teenager phase or watches an insane amount of youtube incel shit or whatever, we’re making sure that they have immediate access to a means to kill like 100 people before anybody can do anything about it?

it just doesnt make sense to me any more to live my life planning for the worst possible societal outcome in a way that has very obvious and real consequences. itd be like if nobody had invented the seatbelt and the way we prevented car crashes was having giant fucking spikes right at eye level surrounding the car to disincentivize other people from driving into you

meanwhile your average team fortress 2 community server is like a kombucha for slurs

i can’t tell if you know more or less than me about what SEO is

i am not familiar with gab, but is this prompt the entirety of what differentiates it from other GPT-4 LLMs? you can really have a product that’s just someone else’s extremely complicated product but you staple some shit to the front of every prompt?

okay, i appreciate you taking the time to write a response, i have no idea what you’re saying though. maybe im wrong about why it didn’t work.

thank you, ill give it another shot

i use keepass to store all my passwords, the database file gets synced across my devices through Dropbox, i open it with a master password, i would like to improve this by also requiring the yubikey

i am kind of confused too as to what exactly the yubikey does in this scenario. my vague understanding is that it was somehow synchronized such that the yubikey would generate sequential random ‘passwords’ which would be checked against the database file (generating its own sequence in the same manner).

i think it stopped working due to some desynchronization between the yubikey and the database file.

im definitely an idiot but i couldn’t figure out at all how to make a yubikey work with a keepass database on android

i was confused by the signs you sometimes see on escalators that are apparently warning you of their own existence for a good few years as a child

yeah same for me, about five years.

it’s not just that i can still get what i need. it’s also that i just ‘need’ way less shit.

i think i realized i had a problem when my brother in law made fun of me for having an 8-port USB charger on my bedside table (with a single cable for my phone plugged into it).

NOTHING SEXUAL

would this be like, only in your own home? or would you be carrying the bidet towel around with you when in public?

look i mean, wherever the line is, im pretty confident nazis are on the other side of it

what exactly am i looking at here? is this an open floor plan bathroom?

i feel like there’s a surprisingly low amount of answers with an un-nuanced take, so here’s mine: yes, i would immediately lose all respect for someone i knew that claimed to have fallen in love with an AI.

well, i think the idea is generally that Americans like issues to be decided at a state level rather than federally due to general “small government” principles, like they can trust their state level government to be more specifically beholden to their interests. this is usually in a right wing context, but not always, like famously California has much stricter environmental regulations than the rest of the country.

I enjoyed Algeria, Ethiopia and Egypt

totally agree. and plus i kind of want to be charged money here. i want the musicians i listen to to get paid and be able to continue making music. i don’t know if the amount they get paid vs spotify’s cut is fair, but honestly if I wasn’t paying my monthly subscription id probably be paying $0 and listening to less music.
