In the US and have never heard this one either.

I have heard in for a penny, in for a pound.

Way back when Sheetz first got touchscreens to order food,

Sheetz is top tier convenience food. So many options to choose. One thing I really miss about no longer living in Maryland or Pennsylvania.

It is Claude I think.

How much vibe coding was done?

I have yet to be able to get my steam controller to work within heroic. Hopefully it works with gog.

speakON or nothing

Do not forget about Kevin.

No, even if I wanted them I need to buy groceries.

Jeffries put it better than me: Americans ‘don’t want us to get even, they want us to get things done on their behalf’

Very pleased with that outcome. My county did well all around, our blue state rep was elected. He seems to be a good person. He frequently comes to our weekly protests.

The republican state rep we had would come to town but avoid seeing her constituen. She joined a local parade and at the end was ushered to her vehicle and left before she could speak with anyone.

The coils need to defrost, so they are able to heat up to do so. Typically this happens for a very short period of time. Bit if the defrost cycle stays on for an extended period of time then the whole thing heats up.

Between them, Santa Fe, and Taos I were hold the line. I think Hull will be as bad for the state as Martinez was, but she was preMAGA, so he will likely be worse.

There are 36 seats to be decided this election, 19 of which are open races, meaning no incumbent is defending.

I fear New Mexico is going to get a red governor.

How many flocks did you remove?

I bought 30 AMD stocks for $13 a pop almost 10 years ago. Last month I sold 5 for $3200 (~$640 each) today they are about $500 each. Really wishing I had sold all of them.

@cannedtuna@lemmy.world is the author of everything that follows:

This is a very well written an thorough article and I highly recommend reading it. If you don’t want to however, here is a summary of the key points:

• Brendan Eich’s anti-LGBTQ+ political involvement

• • Brendan Eich donated to anti-LGBT political organizations, politicians, and initiatives such as CA Prop 8 which banned same-sex marriages.

• 2016 — Brave Browser promises to replace webpage ads

• • Brave promised to replace ads with privacy friendly ads that would actually pay publishers and even users with a volatile cryptocurrency while keeping a cut for themselves. This never actually came to life and was criticized as “blatantly illegal”.

• 2018 — Brave runs a questionable donation campaign

• • Brave collected donations for popular content creators without actually involving or seeking consent from said creators. In short they accepted donations in crypto for creators, but would only pay out if it reached a minimum value of $100. When called out, Brave said refunds were impossible.

• 2020 — Brave injects referral links when visiting crypto wallets

• • Brave injected their own referral links for services such as Binance without informing users or asking permission.

• 2020 — Brave puts ads in user’s home screens

• • Brave turned their home screen image rotator into a place to serve ads, many of which were suspicious or crypto related.

• 2021 - Brave ships an insecure Tor feature

• • Brave added a Tor feature which exposed users DNS requests

• 2023 - Brave hides their crawlers to websites

• • Brave refuses to disclose their crawler bot to websites since many websites want to block Brave Search. Brave will only chose not to crawl a website if it also blocks Google’s crawler.

• 2024 - So-called “privacy browser” deprecated advanced fingerprinting protection

• • Brave removed a the Strict, Block Fingerprinting privacy feature from their browser.

• And More!

• • Brave paid for targeted ads for users searching for Firefox in the Play Store and ran a campaign to “Forget the Fox”. When called out on this the VP publicly denied it and claimed it was photo-shopped.
• • The VP of Brave, Luke Mulks, frequently posts about all things crypto, from NFTs to FTX, and uses AI-gen images to promote them. He also frequently re-tweets right-wing activists.
• • Brendan Eich’s feed also frequently contains right-wing content and Republican propaganda despite his claims to be “independent”.
