I keep a pair of ear defenders and a large pack of ear plugs in my car, just incase I decide to go planespotting, then I can also help friends who forgot to bring theirs.

They do this every few years, when the contract is up for negotiation, M$ will make a way cheaper option, and they will switch back

Sigh, I truly meant it as a a way of saying that I don’t care if I am being monitored, I will keep protesting and posting about them.

I am happy to accept being the most in the wrong, it is not unreasonable to read it that way.

Only due to a mistake, my intention was to to try and show solidarity with the people actually affected by ICE, by saying that I didn’t care if ICE monitored my posts, that it would not prevent me from protesting further.

As I woke up this morning, I realized my mistake and have tried to rectify it.

Fair, my comment was rude and arrogant, though I maintain that it was a (failed) attempt at showing contempt toward ICE, telling them that I will keep critisising even if they monitor my account.

I am fully aware and horrified about chat control, I am doing my best to work against it, please see my other responses to understand what went wrong with my comment.

This entire comment chain is a just a mis understanding, I made a bad attempt at being edgy and note that I would not stop protesting ICE just because my account may be monitored.

I can now see how it fell flat, and I am sorry for the miscommunication.

Ok, clearly there has been a miscommunication here.

I was trying to say that I don’t care about if I am monitored, I will keep protesting ICE.

I did try and say it a bit edgy which was wrong, I can see that now.

I am sorry for the miscommunication.

No?

I thought I was pretty clear,I was trying to say that I don’t care about if they monitor my account, I will keep protesting ICE on social media

Don’t really care, I am a Swede in Sweden, with no desire to visit the US in the forseeable future.

Here in Sweden the personal number starts with your birthday, then a serial number and finally a checksum that also indicates your gender.

If you have an even checksum digit, that indicates that you are a woman, if you have an odd checksum digit, that indicates that you are a man.

Yes, but I don’t know if any software on windows can actually send ctrl+alt+del to windows given that the key combo is a system interrupt sequence…

Not all laptops have the ability to remap keys in the BIOS/UEFI

I hate that they defined a Copilot key on standard keyboards

Yeah, unfortunately here where I live you may not wash you car at home anymore, unless you have a spot where the waste water is collected and filtered, so I have to go to the petrol station to rent a spot where I can wash my car indoors and they deal with the waste water.

Back in my early school years, I attended a school built on top of a hill, it had an exciting school yard, it had a wooded area, a small field, two football pitches and a secluded steep stone staircase where few teachers could see you.

Anyway, during one winter I was down at the bottom end of the staircase playing during recess, and there was a brown plastic pipe leaking warm water coming out of the ground.

I was fascinated by how it melted the snow, so I started playing with the water, it went on for a few days, possibly a week, only then did I suddenly see a tissue paper and brown stuff coming out of the pipe…

Yeah, it was a pipe with raw sewage that I had played with, shortly thereafter the pipe was dealt with by the school.

I am 37 now, and I was seldom sick as I grew up…

Sometimes when my room is very cold, I sleep with socks on, though the rest usually stays off.

20 at home, 18 when away.
