Don’t waste your time. They didn’t read it, because they want a narrative to peddle.

Larian was cooking while BioWare was microwaving.

Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention! I recently upgraded a 10 year old device with a Macbook (first time owner!) and was not impressed with how MacOS operates. Cue to me installing things like Swipe, Bartender, etc. I would have kept happily updating this program without your bringing it to my attention, so THANK YOU!

Exactly! I used to work manual labor, and finally found a job that I can actually get through a day without aching or wishing I was dead. Don’t knock on office work, because there are plenty of worse jobs that can be had!

It would not surprise me in the least, but more importantly, if they get breached and they have sloppy mechanisms in place, my license could be fully out there in the wild. May be whatever to some, but I think it’s too risky to trust some company with it that also has contracts with the government itself.

ID.me offers numerous identity verification products,[9] supplied by third parties. For “high-assurance” identity verification, the company verifies personal data, including drivers’ licenses, passports, and social security numbers.[21] Users must also take a video selfie with their phones, using the ID.me photo app.[1] If ID.me fails to verify users through this information, users are directed to talk to a “Trusted Referee” video call.[22] ID.me users have expressed frustration due to long delays on its video call line

Eh, I’ve only gotten like $20 back max the last three years. They can take as long as they want, I will not be giving any third parties anything that they truly do not need.

But why do you care if someone else is using it or not…? It’s more privacy centric than Google at least.

I looked it up, and there is an article from the end of last year that says they are about to be required or are already required.

I can’t recall ever putting my license on one of these tax preppers, but I am also older and more privacy concerned in my older age, so I would definitely not do it now.

How fucking convenient.

Why not just use Apple Maps for now, until you find one that works better for you?

Right, my government also gave me a number at my birth. They know where I live, they know how much I make and where I work. The third party, ID.me, definitely does NOT need any of my information, since the entity that is taxing me, already does.

The catch is that it requires ID.me, and there is no way in hell I’m giving some third party a picture of my fucking drivers license.

I don’t give a flying fuck about changing anyones mind any more. If you actively lived through the awful Trump years, you don’t need your fucking mind changed. Most of those “third of voters” are a lost cause, so I do not give a fuck about trying to get them to maybe open their eyes just a little bit.

Also, yes, I’m sure the “economic realities” really matter to those voters when this is who they will allow back into office.

That is me too! Even on a PS5 that game runs horribly! I can’t believe they have refused to at least update it for the PS5 to play at minimum a solid 60.

If they’re lucky, and hopefully they are! There are a LOT more bad jobs out there than sitting inside and looking at screens.

Yeah, no.

It’s not that people think ANY kind of criticism of Biden is bad, no. Most of us are probably on the same page.

Where we start rolling our eyes and downvoting, is when it basically sums up to “Genocide bad = Biden bad = Both sides are bad = Vote for third party = Trump gets into office”

Let me tell you something, friend. When Trump was in office, it was some of the most miserable times of my fucking life. I truly did not see any hope if he got elected for another four god damn years. I’d rather kill myself than allow some little whiny ass, dictator wannabe bitch get back in office.

Yeahhhh, no.

Like the original commenter said, you are either ignorant or stupid.

Anyone who actively lived during Trump’s awful years in office has all the info we need to NOT vote for that fucking orange idiot, and instead CLAMBER to anyone with ANY semblance of sanity.

If you honestly think that Biden losing will help anyone in any way whatsoever (besides Trump and his little rich bastards who are as evil as he is), you, and anyone else who feels that way, are a lost cause.

Was using Floorp for awhile because I like the layout with a custom CSS theme. I can’t wait for it to be official, because the Floorp developers put on a recent update article that says they are looking at ways to monetize the browser without sacrificing user privacy and security, and I just don’t like that thought process at all. I know it is unpaid work, but I already have enough things in my life trying to monetize me. I definitely don’t need another!

Here is the update they provided, but under Changes they say,

“Later this year, Ablaze plans to launch a number of initiatives to help maintain the health of the browser and generate revenue from its software in a way that doesn’t compromise user privacy.”

I also went and installed Debian on it because I knew it was no longer supported by MacOS. I know I could’ve tried the OpenCore and I did at one point, but it wasn’t very stable and still ate through the battery. :/

I’ve realized, thanks to tal, that I was under the wrong impression and had thought the CPU was just too power hungry. Maybe it is, but it has always had not so good battery life unfortunately.

I have bitten the bullet, and upgraded to a newer laptop. The battery actually lasts multiple days of youtube, plex, and anything else like games I throw at it. I just wanted a laptop I didn’t have to worry about charging unless I got a few uses out of it first! I will always miss the glowing apple on the back of the lid though. That was some good times. :')
