Yes, it's really best just not to bring your phone at all but if you must, like for emergencies, or you need it beforehand and then for some reason have no place to stash it then a Faraday container can come in very handy. It's also not 100% fool proof but if used right will prevent any signals from outside reaching your phone or any signals from your phone going out (as mentioned, you can not trust airplane mode.) There are DIY guides online for making your own.

Yes. It also has been shown that it uses Microsoft trackers making it a total lie that it's respectful of its user's privacy. On top of that they openly stated that they would be censoring (by deprioritization, so they say) any sites associated with "Russian disinformation." And we all know what that means. And really it just plain sucks in terms of how well it works to serve you with results you're looking for.
Duckduckgo is a bad search engine. There are plenty of other good options without having to return to google. Examples: Brave seems to be pretty good and uses their own engine while Searx (searxng) is awesome ime and aggregates from a bunch of other engines.
Well, ultras go back much further than the CIA does. Lenin famously wrote about the phenomenon as an infantile disorder back in 1920. But that's not to say that the disorder hasn't been often used by the likes of the CIA and anticommunists in general as one of the many tools in their bag to smear and discredit actual Marxist-Leninists. There are plenty of genuine ultras out there but finding the line that differentiates them from psyops is usually a fool's errand. Honestly, I think there are some ultras whose hearts really are in the right place, they just crucially failed at the materialist part of dialectical materialism. The jackass in OP is not one of these.
I had already typed up a response to this when I noticed you went back and edited your previous comment to add shit about me "playing games." So nevermind, not worth it. I'm tired of this obnoxious thing where you make these personal accusations like how I'm "playing games" and about "my posts" (while repeatedly editing your own!) when you don't even know what you're talking about wrt to me or the topic. It's not worth trying to engage with someone who pulls that comment editing shit and attacks me personally for things they made up whole cloth. I'm not playing games here and anyone reading this who wants to learn more about the reality of Lyme and the very real long term problems it causes in many patients diagnosed with it, as well as the hype around unsupported explanations for them that are almost certainly garbage (which I never denied) are welcome to do so without me having to defend myself against your weird toxicity.
No, because that denies that it is linked to the initial Lyme infection somehow and may well have a completely different cause than the more general chronic fatigue or fibromyalgia. Again, that would be like telling people just to call long covid "chronic fatigue."
telling people this is due to mystical nonexistent spirochetes in their blood that can only be treated with a long course of IV antibiotics.
Right, that's exactly what I said. Just like I said Long Covid is actually the result of vaccines. Seriously, you're telling me "my posts" (btw, what are you even referring to? Do we have a history or something?) are this thing you've made up in your head about me because I am pointing out the FACT that a condition exists despite many misled denialists. Chronic Lyme is as real as long covid is even though we don't know what the underlying cause of it is.
The medical reality is the symptoms people experience
No shit! Which is because Lyme Disease is real! Fucking hell, what is your problem?
Um... stop accusing me of weird bullshit while denying reality and calling a medical reality and the experience of countless disabled people pseudoscience?
Anyway, ashiniadash, here you can see why that topic is high on the list of controversial wikipedia pages. Libs gonna lib ig.
Neither is long Covid. Just a big hoax by lazy whingers. 🙄
Case in point.^
Most people who have it know why, and it has to do with the large swathes of chuds (and libs too) who insist it isn't real, just in your head, an excuse to be lazy, etc. etc. Almost any chronic illness that is hard to diagnose and can't be pinned with complete unambiguous medical certainty to a single clear cause gets that sort of treatment. There are still so many people who don't even believe Lyme disease is real.
I completely agree and this is something everyone should remember. Even so, it's fair to say that there is a spectrum when it comes to the ahistoricity of any given historical depiction. A work can be a bit off despite the honest attempt of the artist to make it historically accurate or it can be a grotesque mischaracterization that distorts the context beyond any semblance of the historical reality. G*mers tend to demand the latter while pretending they're the ones championing accuracy.
A few months ago ublock origin wasn't working for a subset of users (that youtube was using to test features that would break ublock origin for everyone). Ublock had to do make changes to counter youtubes efforts. They did so successfully and became an even more robust ad blocker than before. If they had not, we all would have been seeing ads break through months back.
My point is that it is an arms race and so far ublock (and other ad blockers, though ublock consistently proves the best) has been able to keep ahead for the most part. I don't know for sure if this is the moment when youtube starts to pull in front, obviously I hope not. But even if they do, that doesn't mean ublock will be permanently broken. Even if ads got through for you today, it doesn't necessarily mean they will tomorrow. We'll see.
