Redditors, that's what the upvote button is for. No need for posting comments that are essentially just "^this"

At least the other child comment is adding their 2¢ to the suggestions

official US motto that is used since Civil War

dub is clearly replying to this aspect of your comment. The In God shit was signed by Eisenhower, a century after the Civil War.

The In God We Trust and E. Pluribus Unum phrases were BOTH seen and used in the the late 1800s, both in an unofficial manner. HOWEVER, E Pluribus appeared in the Great Seal of the US in the late 1700s, much earlier than the latter phrase.

Neither was official, but if you're going to pick a "de facto" motto, E. Pluribus Unum was the oldest and most used. Linking to more of your factually incorrect comments is about as useful to this thread as the guy shouting nonsense at the clouds by my office.

Back on Reddit, most of my saved comments were from you, PoppinKREAM. Glad to see your detailed (and well sourced!) explanations are here on the lemmyverse now too.

Do what it takes to pass your classes in university, but prioritize finding an internship or entry level job for your career. No one cares about your GPA, but all entry level jobs want experience.

To avoid the chicken-and-egg problem of graduating and never getting a job because they want experience, and you can't get the experience unless they give you a job, get an entry level job in college and try to get extra responsibilities in that job for your resume.

Then explain to the class what you do believe in. Give us 3 bullet points you'd want a candidate to also support.

I'll start as an example:

• I believe in complete and unequivocal abortion rights for women
• High speed rail should get more funding in the US, and car based transport (where rail could be a realistic replacement) should not be a cheap as it is
• Gerrymandering should be ended, and federal level elections should be taken over by a nonpartisan 50-50 committee to create new maps when local governments continue to submit unacceptable voting maps to intentionally stall so they can keep using the old gerrymandered map for the next elections

Sync because I had huge preference for apps that followed MD3/Material You. I wish it had an inline comment editor for replying in the middle of threads, that was my only missing feature. Slide did the inline editor nicely.

They do collect it, and use it for their own marketing platform

Right

but they don’t sell/trade it

Then what are they collecting it for? To line their servers? It's being used to train services, and those services that have ads have those ads targeted using the data collected in the first sentence I quoted.

In fact they DO anonymise the data they collect

So does google. Again, to the broader thread audience replying to my original comment, what is the difference?

None of the major players literally sell your true name and address. All mask the data, and then do stuff with it like create trends to know which ads to display to "users that search for tiktok on the app store/play store"

Nope, Apple sells your data just as much as Google does: https://www.insiderintelligence.com/content/apple-ad-revenues-skyrocket-amid-its-privacy-changes https://www.vox.com/recode/2022/12/22/23513061/apple-iphone-app-store-ads-privacy-antitrust#luMMel

While people noticed their new policies against 3rd party apps, that masked the fact that those policies carved out an exception for first party apps, meaning they collect (anonymous) data on you through Health, Journal, Music, etc. just like every other company. "Trusting them more" is simply a result of you and everyone else getting hit with their privacy ads recently.

Edit: "just like every other company" meant Google and Microsoft, i.e. the other big equivalent tech companies, my fault for not being specific.

As a user of Windows my entire life, I've tried Ubuntu and Manjaro before and went back to Windows. I randomly felt like trying Linux again recently and set up Debian 12, and am finally not going back.
