why did you go through the effort of manually removing exif when you say exactly where you are
>>61953594
Not OP, but exif contains information other than your location, which in theory could be used to (partially) deanonymise the source of photographs.
Or possibly OP is a fgt.

men...where they come from ? how can i stop this nightmare ?
babby's first botnet experience
i just have to walk past a store and its contents will be shown to me
eg this audio equipment store i visited a few years ago
Think about it. For google to know when you're not saying 'OK Google' it has to record everything you say, turn it into text, just to make sure you're not saying OK google.
And so what do they do with this 40kB of text? They store it. And use it to market shit to you.
Your service provider is paid by advertisers to give them your text messages.
>how can i stop this nightmare ?
Get a dumbphone.
What can I sell my PC for? Or is it getting too old to be worth anything?
Why on earth would you want to sell it
>>61953317
I'll be frank: I'm addicted, not just to gaming, but to sitting at my PC all day every day. No matter what things I've tried to do, I always come back to it, and feel like shit because of it, like I have zero willpower to actually do something else.
>>61953336
So you're saying it's time to build a new one?
Name one good reason not to nuke Korea
Just don't connect it to the internet idiot.
>>61953127
This. I had a samsung tv connected, but they had to go full retard and push completely unimportant notifications about some apps I never used anyway, so I disconnected it and now play everything from kodi on rpi. Feels good.
>smart tvs
Just fucking connect it to your computer jesus christ.

What esoteric programming language is that?
What does /g/ think of these? Are they essential? Are they even reliable?
>>61952057
I use them for ip cameras around the business. We have massive construction aste recycling equipment on the grid and the camers get fried if they arent behind these.
Just make sure you aim for like double your power needs or youll burn shit out when you actually use it.
Also I tend to use them just long enough to turn a generator on for the servers. Or if no one is here itll tell the servers to shut down when its battery gets low.
>reliable
They are almost always shit after two years.
>>61952241
This.
Also. Go for double conversion.
I always wanted one, but came to the conclusion its not worth spending $100+ for the 1 day a year my power goes off just so I can save whatever processes I'm doing.
Best Android Launcher, that isn't botnet or a meme.
Something feature packed,free ( as in freedom) and minimalistic.
Those with built-in news/feed function is a big bonus. I am into that shit.
