nah, it’s not uefi. linux straight up doesn’t even see the drive when it’s in the pc. according to archwiki, all laptops in its series work perfectly with Linux except for this one. the SSD does work externally in an enclosure though, so I’m using it for storage.

I just have an old laptop with a tui screen saver on it to prevent burn

also, the ssd doesn’t work with linux so i have to put the os on a usb stick

oh, according to electroboom they were gfci.

when any electricity leaks out (for example through your body) it switches off. the eu also has the same system, but its one switch for your entire house. the us also has this but only in bathrooms.

yeah, feeding the wrong food wil give them liver disease in the long run, and they cant handle suddenly switching food sources. They’ll also get way to fat which gives them depression and also kills them. being ‘nice’ to a cat that has an owner by feeding it shortens their life by ~3 years.

appliences that connect to your internet are supposed to be secured, but cheap Chinese ones usually arent. this means they can easily get hacked and added to a botnet thats used for DDoS attacks. I once saw a screenshot of someone whose washing machine uploaded ~30GB of data per month.

the best thing to do against this is to just not connect them to the internet.

nope, but they do have WiFi to send analytics to the factory (and so that they can get hacked and be used for DDOS attacks)

yes, I kinda like debating. But, i also think i have a point though. Sorry if it seemed like i was some kind of troll.

also, was it point 5? it seems kinda wrong to compare yearly deaths to total.

is 4 backed by actual research?

isn’t 5 because of the antivaxx things?

and, about 6, yes. people care about the flu, but nobody ever says ‘flu is spiking and corporations don’t care’

you could also say the same about flu. why don’t you post about flu suddenly spiking in winter (surprisingly) and nobody caring about it?

yes. why would they care? since we have vaccines, covid is just a flu, and it, like a flu, spikes in the winter.

edit: fuck

some companies, instead of paying youtubers a lot of money to promote the product, tell them ‘we will give you some percentage of every sale we make that was advertised by you’ They do this by giving the youtuber an affiliate link. its basically the link to the product, except for that when you open it you get a cookie that says ‘[youtuber] brought me here’ What honey did, was replace those cookies with theirs, meaning they get the cut from the sale, instead of the youtuber.

with for example, NordVPN, you get 35 dollars per sale with your affiliate link. if you watched a youtube video about NordVPN and then went into the description to buy it with the YouTubers affiliate link, honey would pop up and say ‘we have no coupons for you’ if you clicked on the close button of the popup honey would replace that cookie with theirs; if you would currently buy a NordVPN subscription, the money would go to honey, instead of to the youtuber that advertised it to you (who deserve the money)
