I did. I smoked from 1988 until 2010’ish and also chewed tobacco from '01 - '10 as well.

A friend had Strawberry Rhubarb vape so I tried it, loved it, then converted to vape. I slowly decreased the nicotine amount until it was 0-nic and then from there I started becoming more strict like no vaping at work, no vaping while driving until it got to the point where I just didn’t vape. Then I got bronchitis.

I got better and then began exercising more. I plateaued and saw a doctor. COPD.

Now I’m just depressed all the time because I apparently have Anhedonia to boot.

So I’m gambling with 20% of my take home in hopes one of these strategies has a huge payout so my wife and kid can be taken care of when I’m gone, which will likely be under a decade.

They’re not losing elections. They’re improving value to shareholders.

And they wonder why people start hitting people over the head with hammers.

It’s frustrating that people forget you can shoot at any American wearing a Swastika as part of the War Crimes Act.

Many people do work and live out there.

Yeah… I just remembered my History classes covering Ireland - it’s much better. And boy oh boy if I could afford taxi’s!

I would absolutely love to be in Ireland! Well, I mostly just want to sit and listen to the elderly talk about the days before they went to shit.

And here I was proud my kindergarten child is participating in 2nd grade English. Now I realize everyone is just dumb.

What??? I’m way out of the loop.

I would love to say this is going to flop, but in the States people pay $1k for telephones and $600+ for consoles and then pay a monthly fee to then use those devices.

meh… I think we need to start firebombing their residences. Then when we’re all in Prison we start crazy orgies so the churches will want to shut them down because they’re spawning grounds for demons. Once we’re out, start firebombing again.

It’s so nuts it just might work.

I am absolutely blown away that he is winning the popular vote by as much as he is.

It is of my opinion that individuals that don’t vote in the upcoming election are complacent to the atrocities occuring.

I feel that this occupation is just repeating every few years since '87.

One step closer to requiring smart phones to track an individual for their alibi

Standard in 2008 If the auto manufacturer offered OnStar or Sirius, earlier.

I wish it wasn’t true, and I definitely feel like a nut job when I bring it up.

GM’s OnStar, I believe, was just EDS’s tech at the time of their rollout in '96ish

Originally the D.A.I.R. project (Driver Aid, Information and Routing) was conceptualized in the 60’s. It wasn’t until Hughes assisted EDS in the 90’s that they were able to create a beacon that could communicate via Satellite and Cellular.

I myself didn’t realize this was a thing until about a decade ago when I was trying to create an automation for my lights to turn on when I pulled into my driveway. I kept getting a ping about 5min after my phone connected to my WiFi. The MAC matched nothing I had in the house, I just blew it off.

When an associate stopped by to work on a HoneyPot project we started seeing a bunch of random MACs attempt to connect to the open wifi, we wrote that noise off as people walking by my house and their cell phones were just trying to connect. It wasn’t until the garbage man showed up and stopped to talk to me that I was able to find his truck listed with an address connected to the open wifi, sent a few packets, then left. We made the correlation that the MAC’s could be from cars so we started researching the manufacturer of those device MAC’s

That pretty much opened a weird rabbit hole leading us to find out that almost every car has been tracked since the mid-90’s.

Joking aside, I would move to Amish country if it weren’t for the whiskey and bitches. But in all honesty; my family lives a much more comfortable life than I ever imagined I would with working in the IT field.

GPS had been implemented in vehicles in the 90’s. Most people are now finding out about the modems.

I don’t think enough people have mentioned that Auto manufacturers have been able to locate vehicles since the 90’s.
