@Hambrabai @CreationDeath @Jaboolie @jmkettle @VDAREJamesK We did? Where?

@CreationDeath @Jaboolie @jmkettle @VDAREJamesK Only a few days ago the whole world saw that most Germans have issue identifying bread and figuring out what toast is.

Giving a restaurant a three star review is illegal in Germany.

@antokhoren @IntCyberDigest Yes, but only to download Waterfox.

@IntCyberDigest Everyone, uses edge after a fresh Windows install.

‼️🚨 Microsoft calls this "intended behaviour," so here we go. How to dump the credentials of every user stored in Microsoft Edge: 1. Open Edge. Don't browse anywhere, just open it. 2. Flip to Task Manager, find Edge, expand the task. 3. Highlight the "browser" sub-task, right-click, and choose "Create Memory Dump." 4. Open the dump file and look for credentials. The logged-in Windows user can dump every stored Edge credential with no additional rights. Which means any malware that user executes has those credentials for the asking.

@DataJuggler007 @OrevaZSN You forgot windows 8?

@OrevaZSN I bought a program called Start 11, so Start Menu behaves like a Windows 10 Start menu. Windows 11 is the first time the OS got worse.

Dear Microsoft, when I hit the Windows Start menu key and start typing a word to autocomplete a search, I never, ever, EVER want it to return results of something not on my computer. Ever. Like, ever, ever, never.

@FascinatingTrue @historydefined He also definitely did not look like a spy

The Federal Bureau of Investigation spent nearly four years attempting to decode the mysterious numbers and uncover the origin of the coin without any success. The case was finally cracked in May 1957 when a Soviet intelligence officer named Reino Häyhänen defected to the United States and offered his help to the authorities.

In 1953, a 14-year-old newspaper boy in Brooklyn was paid with a nickel that felt unusually light. When he dropped it, the coin popped open, revealing hidden microfilm with coded numbers inside. The strange coin launched the famous Hollow Nickel Case, an FBI investigation that later exposed a Soviet spy network operating in the United States.

@nikolaivsevolod @pebkac101 @Gravantus There was a viral post about how it's cheaper to eat out because buying all the ingredients adds up. They couldn't seem to grasp that you can make multiple burgers with those ingredients.

@pebkac101 @Gravantus You put them in your fridge for your next sandwich.. Is this really where we are in society? What sort of weird side of X have I fallen into?

Cutting up a tomato, onion, and lettuce and throwing it into a plastic container to sell for $5.99.

@zacgilbert321 @PeterMcCormack And we want to destroy it

This post has exposed who should not be in politics or anywhere near the ballot box. The minimum wage is a sticking plaster for the failure of the state. It was rebranded "The Living Wage" because inflation (the fault of government), has made life too expensive. It should not be illegal for someone to want to work at a wage they are happy to accept. Business is hard and It is the state which is killing business is right now: 1. Taxes up (state theft) 2. Energy costs up (mad energy policy) 3. Product costs up (shadow state theft) 4. Less customers (cost of living - inflation) This is all backdoor socialism, control of the company and individual through law and taxation. People should be rightly angry at both the Conservatives and Labour, but to think any left-wing party can solve this, I am sad to tell you, you could not be further from the truth, things will get much much worse. We are heading towards Venezuelan / Argentinian style collapse. No nation has a divine right to be prosperous. Prosperity comes from hard work and good political leadership. We do not have good political leadership and we are killing the incentives of prosperity.

@BWAProject @PeterMcCormack But all of that is facilitated by the state. It COULD enforce rules.

They're caused by concentration of wealth. Capital begets capital, which begets power. Governments are puppets for asset owners a.k.a the rich, the funds, the financiers. They buy the collateral layer, avoid tax, lobby and prompt expansionary monetary policy which pumps their portfolios more, then use that colllateral to buy more assets. Rinse. Repeat. You know its not the state. The state is bought. It's concentrarion of wealth and power.

The majority of your problems are financial. Those financial problems are primarily caused by the state. A smaller state will fix a lot of those problems. You will keep voting for a bigger state. Your problems will get worse.

@sunny051488 @PeterMcCormack They tend to get silenced

@PeterMcCormack I didn’t see the option to vote for a smaller one. I’ll look harder next time.

@PeterMcCormack The far left party in Sweden has a plan to eliminate unemployment: shovel tax money into regional and local governments so they can hire more people. The problem? It doesn't generate any income.

Here is another stupid take by a silly little socialist. They are two separate businesses. I don't take a wage from the coffee shop despite owning and operating it at the senior level. There is no money left to pay me. I do it out of love. The costs of the podcast are paid out of the profits of the podcast, which is a good little business. But the interesting point here is that he thinks all the profit being generated by the workers should go to them. But the silly little socialists can't fathom the following: 1. I took the risk to open the coffee shop - the £120k refurb, the 10 year lease, the business plan and the risk. My reward for the risk if the profits if it works, which I can share with the staff if I choose. 2. But even if we take the silly little socialist mildly seriously (we shouldn't, he's a dumb dumb), if the business fails and is losing money, should we blame the workers and should it be deducted from their salary? This is why these silly little revolutionaries should not be taken seriously. Firstly they don't understand economics, second they are fundamentally stupid, third their model is based on envy, fourth they have no answer to the coordination problem. I could go on, probably not worth it as you can't reason with silly little socialists.

@OG_MISTER_POPO @messedupfoods That window literally shrunk because of piracy

@messedupfoods Movie thesters are for film snobs and ppl Stuck on the 20th century we used to have to wait 2-3 years for a movie to come out on VHS/DVD now theyre out in 2 months ill wait

IMAX for a super mario movie , I'm crying

@MattBGilliland @rob_mcrobberson They used to think tomatoes were poison, probably because they are off you eat off of lead plates

@rob_mcrobberson So... fun fact -- it actually depends on the metal and how new the stainless steel is, but many metals do react to tomato sauce and stainless steel leeches significant amounts of nickel and chromium: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC42…

I dated a girl once who was *convinced* that you ABSOLUTELY MUST stir tomato sauce with a *wooden* spoon because the tomato sauce will react w a metal spoon and when i pointed out that she had the sauce in a steel pot she got so mad at me 😂 like spitting mad

@south_23rd @_marko_gajic_ @CosmosStag No one dies unless someone pushes the blue button

@_marko_gajic_ @CosmosStag No one dies unless most people push the red button. Pushing the red button is the action that causes death. Do you know "cause and effect" or did you not get to that yet

The red/blue button debate seems to be about locus of control. If someone dies by pressing the blue button was it their fault for not pressing red or was it someone else's fault for not pressing blue?

@omarfade_ @0xSweep That's a good dev

@0xSweep so satoshi almost built a p2p vulnerability into bitcoin and one dude said hey thats dangerous and he just deleted it like it was nothing

Bitcoin had a feature in 2009 so dangerous Satoshi himself deleted it after one user pointed it out In the original version of Bitcoin you could send coins directly to someone's IP address There was no wallet address needed and even worse, your computer would connect to theirs to send the coins through That meant anyone could see your IP, locate your machine and try to attack it just by sending you Bitcoin On January 14, 2009 Satoshi decided to test it himself and emailed an early miner named Dustin Trammell asking for his IP Trammell replied and actually sent it to him A few minutes later Satoshi connected and sent him 25 BTC with a message that said "Hello" Trammell answered him with a warning that the feature was insecure and within weeks Satoshi deleted it from Bitcoin entirely Those 25 BTC would be worth $1.86 million today

@BullandBaird But the close door button closes the door almost instantly... At least outside of wherever you live

I can’t imagine there’s a button in existence that does less than this. Maybe the close door button on an elevator?

@tanpukunokami It's even worse in Sweden and were still losing money every year

@darkfang1989 @ankkala And cobalt tools

@ankkala it was supposed to be to stop people from stealing other's content - now people use screen cap software to do it anyway.

@nixorokish @WildOctopus0x @CR1337 You CAN make a portable piehole

@WildOctopus0x @CR1337 but this only works at home! if you take your laptop to a coffee shop or travel or literally anywhere else, you absolutely need an ad block pihole is nice cuz you know you're protecting everybody else on your network too, even if they're not savvy enough to have an ad blocker

In 2014, Raymond Hill, known online as 'gorhill', released uBlock Origin, a free and open-source ad-blocker; some even say it is the best. 60K+ stars on GitHub, GPL-3.0, while Raymond refuses to take money, or to hand his project over to anyone other than himself. In July 2025, Google suddenly disabled Manifest V2 extensions, causing the full uBlock Origin to stop working in Chrome. The world's biggest ad company nuking the best ad blocker, in their own browser, nothing to see here folks. Today? It's still alive on Firefox, Edge, Brave,... still GPL-3.0. Still 100% free to use. Still 100% open-source. This is the way!
