Can you please explain what you read it as? Are you saying it was literal and that Dell/HP/Lenovo are raising their prices immediately from the data Google obtained by you searching for a computer repair? I was under the impression it was just an example of how info can be exploited like the person you replied to. It seems like it would lose more sales than gain if that were real, as all vendors and resellers would have to raise across the board. Like Amazon couldn't all the sudden be cheaper than you, or they'd take your sale from the manufacturers website

Yeah, the location data wouldn't function right as you said. They wouldn't know you were at the store on 5th Street if the app is running on a machine at home I suppose. Could always manually search it.

Not your fault we are in that situation. Hope your life comes into many a cheap watermelon.

Yeah that might be a good way of doing it, maybe someone else will pop in saying theyve tried one of them, I should have probably asked this on no stupid questions. I figure someone has already done it before so maybe they'll throw some insight about what to avoid. Thanks for the input!

There are also regulations where I lived that you can't have a pool built now without having a barricade of some sort to prevent kids from falling in. But no regulations that you have to have a gun behind a barricade around kids. (You could be grandfathered into not having the netting if you had it built prior to the legislation)

If you want to get deals for the grocery store you need their app, cheaper deals for pizza, have to open the dominos/Pizza Hut app, I rarely go to Taco Bell, Starbucks, McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, etc but they all want you to use their app to get access to their coupons and order things. Maybe their points all add up on their websites, would just have to save all the logins in a password manager. Kroger comes to mind because they now use in store prices, price with Kroger card, and price with coupon from mobile app. It's crazy that that is allowed, but if they are going to charge 3.99 for a watermelon if you have the mobile app, and 6.99 regular, unfortunately I will cave and install the app.

Edit: seeing a product for sale with 3 prices listed below it is mildly infuriating

You lose the ability to refuse treatments in any scenario the emergency responders / doctors deem you unfit to make a decision in the best interest of your/someone else health. It's why "baker acting" in Florida is so controversial. Taking someone against their will and locking them in a facility for a minimum time without any real need of evidence.

Someone calling and telling them you said you were going to kill yourself is often all the evidence they need to start the process, whether you really said that is up to the emergency responders. For my friend that was 9 cop cars in the middle of the night. They dragged him out of bed at 4am because his partner at the time said he hadn't been responding to her texts and she told them he was depressed so he might kill himself.

Once he got out he told me about it all and I'm fairly certain he won't ever sleep with his phone on silent/vibrate again. (He broke up with them immediately after, but that has nothing to do with consent)

I heard they were dangerously attractive, quite stuning really, not only physically, but also in aptitude and intellect.

Wouldn't that result in many musicians never getting paid for their work? Just upload high quality full audio clips to low resolution video unrelated and share with everyone. Everyone can strip the video and have the audio for free, making it a legal platform to upload the content for distribution. Downloading for non commercial gain used to be the grey area, where uploading was the illegal part I believe. At least that's what I remember from torrents and seeding back in the day

I could maybe believe this if he didn't flop around on things and say some of them were jokes. Like the lost by a whisker comment that pissed off several members of his base so he just walked it back by saying he was kidding.

He is running and spending millions of tax payer dollars, on an election he doesn't believe is legitimate according to his words/actions. Bologna, why would you spend all your time on something you know you can't win.

He knows he lost, he is just a fraud. The people he frauds, the U.S. population. Pence made sure the legitimate electors were submitted last election. Wait for the conspiracies that come when maga realizes Harris is the one who submits the electors now.

The internet is regulated in every country. Several countries have demanded information be removed from that site, and he complies. He only doesn't like to comply when its about things he disagrees with.

If I send you an address can you ship some extras, mine seem to die or you get ones that are only 4inches long with something. Throw in that now many devices only have USB C on both ends so your last phone that sold with a USB A to USB C cord, that no longer plugs into new devices, I am always at a shortage.
