I’ll take a look at it! The People need to get together and vote out and remove these old and existing democratic party leaders. Thanks for the link!

I’d prefer it that were possible but mainstream is needed in order for the left to ever win an election. But removing the current leadership and hopefully everyone would be safer. We could just try and move to socialist or green party but then the right would just keep winning since there wouldn’t be enough unified support.

I just don’t know what the People can do to change the leadership over the next 2 to 4 years to actually stop them from continuing to make stupid decisions.

The problem is they’re still making money… Political donations were still crazy high this year. And I don’t think they really care much as long as they all get paid.

That’s one of the things I like to tell friends or family I know that will say “Voting doesn’t matter”. I’ll usually say something like, “Think of the most vile person on the opposite side. If you vote then you’re negating their vote at a minimum. Because you know that extreme person is going to vote every time.”

Doesn’t always work since some people are stubborn but changed a few people!

I’ve been wanting a game like this for years!! As soon as Pokemon Go came out I thought it would be awesome to have a similar game that was offline or less Network dependent that modern AR games.
Like you level up and gain experience by walking around but you don’t have to live in a city or busy area to play. You don’t have to have the social element of say Pokemon Go or Wizards Unite to play and have fun.
The entire point is to have a game that ties the fun elements of gaming with the real world effects of exercise!
Thank you for this I’m excited to keep up with the progress 🙂

I think it throws an internal error if you pull the fuse or cut power to it? I’m not entirely sure. I did it so I could disable it and if I needed to re enable it for any reason it would be really easy.

Here’s the Guide I used! I had to wing a little bit for my vehicle but it was still really easy https://quigs.blog/how-to-disable-onstar-on-the-chevy-bolt-to-protect-your-privacy/

It might not be enough. But all of those things you listed take a lot of time and enough people to care about it to get out and do things.

It’s definitely not good enough, but it’s like if you have a giant puncture wound on you leg and no one else is there to help you. You could stuff it with cloth you tore from your shirt or make a makeshift tourniquet and try your best to not bleed out until better help arrives. OR just be like fuck I’m not cut out to deal with this. I’ll just lay here and do nothing.

We do need all of those things! But we don’t have them right now so we just have to try and stop the bleeding until we do.

I recently bought a 2021 vehicle that has OnStar. I knew this would be a concern, but luckily there was a guide online to replace the antenna with a dummy antenna that isn’t ever able to connect to the network to send data.

So that might be an option! It’s still collecting but it’s not sending anything back.

Woah is that a real photo? NY Times give it credit and a date so I’d assume yes it’s real but also it looks so fake too. That’s insane if that’s actually how areas used to look!

I guess one reason why no one is paying attention to it is because is the Wi-Fi speed usually the limiting factor? In my case I’ve rarely ever maxed out my Wi-Fi 6 speeds. Typically the host or the network that I’m on that is the limiting factor.

Although I’m also in the US so I know where not know for having the fastest internet in the world. Maybe in other areas of the world WiFi 7 might be more useful.
