It’s just different scammers now.

A little late for a reply, but I use stainless steel 16-14 gauge rings made for chainmail and use pliers to bend them open and closed. The Ring Lord is where I get my material for projects, and then I just use the rings for keychain stuff too.

I got grandfathered into YouTube Music since I was using Google Music when it got shut down. While not as good as Google Music, YT Music works well for me and has been building playlists suited to what I want to listen to. Plus, some lesser known local artists that only have their music on YouTube as video uploads will still show up on YouTube Music. I haven’t really tried any other serious streaming platforms, and only YT Music and Spotify natively sync to my car with maps.

I’m diggin’ the style of this manga. Have a source?

So did the restaurant.

I wore some of these at work for a while to listen to music, since earbuds were an OSHA safetey issue.

• They are horrible in loud environments. I had to turn them up so high thay they would vibrate, which was an unpleasent feeling.
• However, you can still hear them fine with OSHA approved earplugs, but then the music sounds all muffled.
• You can find lots of different ones on Amazon and such just by searching for bone conduction headphones, ranging from cheap to expensive.
• The ones I got cost about $20 at the time, and had an okay sound quality, but not much bass.

I leaned about these from the Soundband Kickstarter over a decade ago, whoch I backed. None of the backers ever got a product, as it seems the creators dropped the project and ran with the money. Those ones had the bone-conduction wrap around the ear. Instead of sit on the bone in front of the ear.

Edit, to add a few points:

• They were comfortable enough to wear for several hours, but the vibration got real annoying if I had to turn up the volume due to a loud environment. The band that wraps around the ears could get uncomfortable after a while.
• It didn’t irratate my skin, but vibration at loud volumes was uncomfortable.
• I wore these with glasses no problem.
• The band that wraps around wasn’t tight, but fit okay enough to not flop around while working. Not sure about for jogging or other work-outs.

Nobody _earns a billion dollars. It can only be stolen and exploited from other peoples’ labor.

I think games as a while have shifted focus from being fun to being addicting, with few exceptions. Little Big Planet and Twisted Metal were fun; Roblox wants your money. And then there’s the micro transaction hell that plagues mobile games, which seem to be most of what children play or only have access to these days.

I didn’t think about that. It completely defeats the purpose of geolocation for theft prevention and recovery, and at very little cost and effort to the thief. The amount of effort and technological advancement for something so simple to make it obsolete is almost comical.

On one hand, this is great for lost or stolen phones. On the other hand (and rest of the body), this is horrible for privacy.

I actually saw this documentary about people with a quicksand fetish, who go out in groups and just lounge in quicksand (without the getting swallowed/dying part). They said they loved the way it felt on their skin and being enveloped by it, among other things. It wasn’t desert quicksand, but it looked kind of wet.

One spam call I asked the guy to stay on the line while I verify his number by running a route trace. He hung up and I stopped getting spam calls almost completely. Now I get a few that are auto-blocked but I still get robo-voicemails.

I think most real-life examples have been plagued by corruption to the point that they fall into a different category altogether.

I don’t use it myself, but I believe Proton (or Proton Mail?) doesn’t require any additional info. At least back when I checked it out before. There’s also mail.com, as well as a plethora of pros & cons lists for email providers out there to google (with add blockers).

I edited my original comment before your reply posted, but yes, conservative politics cover many actual political things, but the “loud and in power” leverage certain views on the LGBTQ+ community and try to pass laws on that for their own political (financial) gain.

Well, “Jews for Hitler” was a real group, so you can be whatever you want.

Edit: I feel I should point out that there is a difference between having conservative views on politics and sharing the current conservative views on LGBTQ+, just know what you are voting for.
