He called the Pope "weak on crime," lmao.

And lo, when the penitent thief called to Jesus, he said, "Remember me, when you come into your kingdom." And Jesus heard the thief repent and replied to him, "Naw, that's some beta cuck shit. No parole, motherfucker."

That's an illogical and likely outdated perspective on battery capacity. I voluntarily charge my battery to 80%, both to prolong its life and because 80% is more than enough to meet my driving needs with only one charge per week. I also get a faster charge due to the taper of the power curve.

80% for me is 400 km / 248 miles of range, or 57 km / 35 miles per day. My commute to work is twelve miles each way.

If my battery drops to 80% capacity over a decade, it won't affect me. I'd still have plenty of overhead with 400 km / 248 miles between charges.

A bigger problem than a technical alternative is convincing all of your friends to switch.

There are multiple other programs that fill a similar niche, but I don't know I'll be able to get everyone I know to change over.

I definitely will discontinue using Discord if they deploy this surveillance state bullshit, but a little bit sad over the number of gaming buddies I'll lose contact with in the process.

There's a fantastic movie called Kind Hearts and Coronets from the 1940s. A guy discovers he's tenth in line to be a duke, but his mother was disowned by her family for marrying a commoner.

Naturally, he decides to kill his relatives to avenge mom and grab the dukedom. Oh, and all nine of his relatives, male and female, are played by Alec Guinness.

Are big businesses still advertising on Facebook? I'd heard that they were running ads for full-on scams, presumably because few real people are left on the platform and it's no longer attractive to most advertisers.
