WARNING: Contains very loud swearing right from the start.

I respect the effort of creating this search engine and the effort to create a good privacy focused browser. However I didn’t appreciate the fact that the latest update to the browser set this search engine as the default.

In that specific scenario I imagine we’d all die out fairl quick.

To begin with we’d all probably have a massive anxiety attack as a result of those events transpiring and gather in small groups all not knowing how to proceed. After the initial panic those groups might try to make a plan to survive but being that I’m not the most organised or conscientious person out there a few days in most if not all of us would say “fuck it, lets go out with a bang” and go crazy on food, booze or whatever we could get our hands on. We’d also probably start fucking each other because we’re the only option.

Then we’d start dying either from misadventure, fighting over resources or just killing each other for the hell of it. I like to consider myself a peaceful and rational individual, but faced with this situation and no legal consequences? Pretty sure anybody would go nuts.

Once we get that out of our system the remaining few might try to band together to save things again. Even if we were able to come up with a serviceable plan by then it’d be too late. We wouldn’t have enough resources to tide us over whilst we get on track as a society, if we even could. Then the final “mes” would die out as well.

Why would the writer keep giving a lack of integrated Google account sync as a limitation of privacy focused browsers? Especially when they’re trying to free themselves from control by American companies and mention Google specifically? Seems like a feature rather than a limitation to me.

I knew exactly what it was and clicked on it anyway

I find it quite a thrill…

Or your own interpretive dance.

All I want is a barrel of you…

In the UK any of the below should do the trick, with the added bonus of possibly getting you stabbed and/ or glassed:

Gary Glitter - My Gang

Rolf Harris - Jake the Peg

Lostprophets - Last Train Home

The year is 1997. A young boy is about to watch a porn video for the first time on a grainy VHS tape. An older version of himself from the far off year of 2025 appears.

Me: “You know, in the future, you’ll make your own porn videos.”

90s me: “Wow, you mean I’ll get to have lots of hot sex!?!?”

Me: “Ha! No. So Nvidia will release this system called CUDA…”
