I am busy and don't have time to research all of the ways corporations have poisoned us.

What are some good rules on how to avoid microplastics?

Eat local foods? Avoid processed foods? Walk/bike? Use dry soaps? Don't use any take away containers? Avoid walking near busy roads? Use cotton/wool for all clothing?

Florida doc not wearing hearing aid couldn't hear colonoscopy patient screaming: complaint by aviation_hydrated in c/news@lemmy.world

Even if the doctor couldn't hear, couldn't they see or feel the patient moving in pain?

The Open Source Computer Science Degree by aviation_hydrated in c/linux@programming.dev

"College is needed" comments are so weird in a field that can be done on an island with a solar battery. CS isn't medicine or engineering, and the field is so young that requiring a "formal education" most likely will have negative effects of teaching poor practices that are not up to date

Mental illness account for a very small proportion of mass shootings in the US by aviation_hydrated in c/science@beehaw.org

Yeah, there are multiple studies showing this. People who have mental illness are usually the victims of violence, not perpetrators

Oh also, if you have a mental illness you have a 1600% higher chance of being murdered by police for no reason

Any sources on this? We don't use voice activated AI bots like Alexa

I'm learning a language, I speak it in public to other people who do. I don't research the language, because I have some old text books on it. My partner doesn't speak it and doesn't research it on their devices. I don't normally have my phone on me in public, but my partner does. It took about 4 months of publicly speaking in the language before they got ads

What do you think this means?

::edit::

It was a Reddit ad and my city has embraced those AI smart cameras, so I assume some of those are Google owned which makes sense with Reddit and Google's recent alliance. This is assuming our devices aren't listening to us without our permission and AI cameras are mining data on passersby

Other theories are that since cellphones are involved it doesn't matter if I nor my partner ever searched for the language, at some point my phone or partner's phone was near someone who spoke that language and the data brokers/ad sellers inferred from there

Seems like the consensus is that I must have posted in the language on some social media or used Google to research it or made some new friends who speak the language and that's why

How do the repair cafes know what spare parts to have? Does your local area have a discussion about what items might be there beforehand?

Yay, higher prices to offset the theft and increased surveillance!

I think the idea of cryptocurrency is funny, since it's just "I'm not playing your make believe money anymore, so we'll pay our own make believe money since you are obviously rigging the system". Kinda makes sense if adoption keeps up and the planet isn't on fire
