This quote seems very relevant in these era of misinformation and optional facts:

"Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance." --George Bernard Shaw, 1903

Gender and orientation are not binary, they are N-dimensional matrices with non-integer values that can fluctuate over time.

I can quite easily imagine HoneyGain clients using my connection to look up illegal stuff that would get me in trouble. Plus, I'm quite sure this kind of thing violates the TOS for most internet service providers and would get my service disconnected.

I heard about this thing called HoneyGain, which supposedly is a thing you can make money with passively. So, I looked into it, and basically what they're doing is allowing their clients to use your internet connection as a proxy...

Um yeah, that's throwing up a bunch of massive red flag to me 😬

Okay so now MS lets you install windows 11 if you don't have a TPM 2 chip, but you have to do it manually with a clean install from ISO, and windows update won't be available to update the system, only having you able to update by doing clean installs from there on...

What the hell?
That's just such an obvious way to force people to buy new hardware when the old one would be perfectly able to still run the new versions.

Just noticed two additional wounds on my dog. Thankfully they are also minor

vent, animal violence 

We've had problems with groundhogs in the backyard for a while now, so we've had to be careful to look for them before letting our dog outside. Although smaller than our dog, a groundhog can quite easily injure her.

Which is just what happened. I let my dog out, and a minute or two later I heard her barking aggressively, and saw that she had cornered a very big groundhog.

I was able to get her to back away from the groundhog and get her back inside. She's got two small wounds, one on the side of her head and one on her neck, both of which thankfully were not bleeding for very long.

My brother is going to be livid when he gets home. He is very emotionally attached to our dog, and more than likely will want to kill the groundhog.

Just learned there is a book entitled "Murder with Peacocks"

Good video from the Jimquisition going over the bullshit happening against marginalised streamers on Twitch recently. If you are a Twitch streamer I highly encourage you to not go live on September 1st in protest against the hate raids.
