Scavenger animals are pretty cool and some of the few times where people living in cities get to observe wildlife doing their thing, but comparing scavengers to “workers” vastly underestimates the level of exploitation workers face.

Remember, it is literally illegal in many places for humans to pick expired food out of grocery store dumpsters. Police regularly get called to protect the trash from starving people. We are literally treated as less than raccoons and opossums.

Not to mention all the people in this thread defending the gay jokes like it’s 2010 and we’re on the r/TumblrInAction subreddit.

I’m just waiting for someone to get called an SJW for having a problem with Nazis getting lumped in with gay people.

The same people who thought a mural of a Soviet leader kissing another man is a definitive condemnation of socialism lol.

Like, yeah he did that. And?

Proprietary software be like:

try:
    whatever()
except Exception:
    print("oops something went wrong uwu")
    print("also this is purely to get rid of the stack trace because apparently the only thing worse than not handling an exception is scaring the user with anything technical and/or exposing our trade secret architecture")

You’re missing every other Western country “abstaining” because they’re too embarrassed to vote no.

Zohran isn’t a socialist lol. The only people who think he is also think Bernie Sanders and Kamala Harris are socialists.

The carbon monoxide is getting to them. This is why you don’t leave the oven on with the door open.

It’s honestly hard not to say we as a species don’t deserve whatever happens from this. This was 100% our own choice and we have no one else to blame.

Think about it as a sci-fi film. If an evil alien civilization breeds humans specifically to subject them to a life of constant suffering and experimentation, and some humans they deliberately infected with deadly diseases escape, would anyone in the audience feel bad for that alien race when those diseased humans infect everyone and wipe them out? It would be the most classic poetic comeuppance trope and the humans would be uncritically hailed as the heroes.

Spoiler alert, we’re evil civilization doing that.

The absolute irony of a site so infested by bots blocking VPNs.

Wonder how many VPS provider IPs they get from their “users”

Adding to the other replies, right wing transphobes routinely hail the suicide rate as a badge of honour. They love joking about it and insinuating it should be higher. They’re really not quiet about expressing that they absolutely want trans people to kill themselves.

Serious question: Why do y’all “hurt durr .ml” commenters even bother clicking on posts in our communities? Just block us.

Seeing human slop from the 00s is such a breath of fresh air.

And they fall back to “you’re the problem for dividing the left” when someone validly criticizes them or points out they’re not the left.

Imagine thinking liberals are left wing or didn’t resist all the social advancements you mentioned right alongside the cons.

Even without EXIF data I would bet the actual encoding of the image will be identifiable to a specific instance of the camera software.

Similar to how websites fingerprint your browser by rendering something in the canvas or webgl and sending back the rendered image. The exact same rendering procedure will produce slightly different images for each browser instance. I suspect browsers are fully aware and complicit in this because why the actual fuck would they not make the rendering engines deterministic to their inputs?!

Tons of websites record your mouse, keyboard, and scroll activity, and can play back exactly what you saw on your browser window from its backend dashboard as a video. This is called session replay. There are pre-made libraries for this you can import so it’s super common, I believe Mouseflow is one of the biggest providers.

When a mobile app, Windows app, or even website crashes nowadays, it automatically sends the crash dump to the app developer/OS vendor (the OS often does this whether the app requests it or not because the OS developer themselves are interested in what apps crash and in what ways). We’re talking full memory dump, so whatever private data was in the app’s memory when it crashed gets uploaded to a server somewhere without your consent, and almost certainly kept forever. God help you if the OS itself crashes because your entire computer’s state is getting reported to the devs.

Your phone’s gyroscope can record what you say by sensing vibrations in the air. It may or may not be something humans will recognize as speech if played back because the frequency range is too limited, but it’s been shown that there’s enough information for a speech recognition AI to decode. Good chance the accelerometer and other sensors can be used in the same way, and using them together will increase the fidelity making it easier to decode. Oh did I mention no device has ever implemented permission controls for sensors so any app or even website can access them without your consent or knowledge?

Free the Dalai Lama’s Tibetan slaves

Oh wait already did

Anyone says anything against their worldview

Libs: HURR DURR .ML HURR DURR TANKIE

Yes, don’t be surprised when the locals rightfully get pissed at a white person appropriating their culture in their homeland for internet clout.

If you’re talking about the actual people of that cultutre doing it, there are tons on both RedNote and YouTube if you search in Chinese or Uyghur.

Actually, most of these comments seem to stem from people not finding videos like these when searching in English and therefore automatically assuming they don’t exist. Even though they do. And that’s assuming you searched at all in any language which most of you haven’t. Surprise surprise, most Uyghurs in Xinjiang don’t speak or upload videos in English.

By the way, you can GO TO XINJIANG as a tourist. You can talk to the people there. You can experience their culture for yourself. How’s the Freedom Floatila doing in comparison?

Hell, go on RedNote, an explicitly PRC centric app with state control and cEnSoRsHiP and you’ll see Uyghurs in and outside Xinjiang proudly sharing their culture. Wonder how many Palestinians are allowed on Israeli social media.

Also, Uyghurs can, get this, leave the country that’s “genociding” them and many do every year for the Haj pilgrimage. Can Palestinians do the same? Uyghurs can also, get this, go back to the same home and possessions they had before they left without worrying about an Israeli or Han Chinese family moving in while they were gone.

Also also, look up “minority status” in China and how mixed race Han-Uyghur people usually identify with their Uyghur heritage on official papers because it opens up more social support programs like scholarships. They (and every other minority) were also automatically exempt from the One Child Policy which is a pretty stupid move if they’re trying to get rid of them. You literally get more perks from the government if you’re not Han, and this is supported by both the majority and minority ethnicities in China. What does Palestinian status in Israel get you again, I forget.
