>increased racial divide in society

Please explain this one


I see increasingly that people are pitted against each other based on race. We should all be treated the same.


Yeah, for a example currently on TV watch the most recent episode of Watchmen. The racial divide has closed wildly since the 1960s, and simply because tech gives alt-right a platform doesn't make them any bigger than they were on their Oregon compounds decades ago.


Most smartphones are easy to take apart and remove the camera.


I just stick a piece of black tape over it. It doesn't even void the warranty.


Audio is harder to solve for and may be even more invasive to personal privacy.


at that point it's just basically a Pocket PC


You can always just connect a headset when needed. With an audio jack this would be fast enough to do quickly for incoming calls.


I email myself from work very frequently


Do nothing because I am not important enough to be a target of zero days


GSuite is even cheaper


It is?! How much do you pay for GSuite storage?


I assume they are referring to unlimited storage for £8-9/month


g suite has a limits on upload file size and amount per day


Ddg is a wrapper around Bing. They may incorporate other results as well.


For free ofc


Are there any archives to see what their fake content looked like?


In Alexis ohanian’s book he says you can still find them if you go back far enough on the site.


The subreddit r/MuseumOfReddit is basically an archive of most reddit posts. This is the very first reddit post apparently.[0]

Does the NSA actually pay well?


He said that he'd make ~2x at the NSA as what he'd make in an equivalent private sector job, so it seems that way.


At around 52:45 he mentioned top secret security clearance will get you paid ridiculous amounts of money.



I used regularly watch awful car accidents on /r/watchpeopledie. It made me become a much more defensive safe driver. Then reddit banned the sub and I have slowly become more aggressive. I think exposing people to the brutalities of reality makes them more rational.


I did as well. Made a much more cautious person, seeing how (my only) life is fragile. That and fights. Seeing people get killed by a single punch, or pounced upon by murderous madmen, cleared any temptation to be a tough guy. Now if there's ever a situation, in a bar or whatever, I just walk away. Not worth it to die or be maimed for whatever bullshit.


I think it's been shown to have the opposite effect. Initially you're shocked/dismayed, but after repeated viewings, it becomes normalized in your mind and loses the shock value.


Kind of strange to blame your aggressive driving, which is entirely under your control, on the banning of a subreddit.


There was no suggestion of 'blame', just an observation of a correlation; it was unfair of you to reframe introspection that way. Our behavior is not "entirely under our control" - indeed, there isn't even a well defined 'I' for behaviour to be under the control of.

Concepts like 'blame' and 'resposibility' are useful in the context of individual behavior, but misguided when trying to improve systems. That is why the NTSB avoids assigning blame - it would undermine the purpose of what they do.


You must be high in executive function. For people like me, free will is easily described with incentives and external causes -- "I'm cooking less because I'm busier at work". "I'm not working out as much because my gym closed down and I haven't established a habit of going to the pool". For people like me, we have to change the things that are under our control, like which media we view, to affect the ones that we have difficulty controlling.
