Yeah, no
Revelation 13:16-17 New International Version 16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.
Huh. No uproar from the people who believe in this shit? Weird.
Maybe they're all too busy basking in the warm glow of hell... Nah
They are/were anti-vax, that makes chances pretty good.
Years ago I purchased a Fossil Explorist Q wearable smartwatch. The first software update, about a month after I bought it, turned the device from a functional smartwatch into a brick that was so slow it was nearly nonfunctional.
The device was not powerful enough to run all the spyware they tried to pack into that update, turning it into an on wrist heater, occasionally getting Hot enough to burn me.
I've never seen a device so thoroughly destroyed by enshittification so quickly. That's experience turned me off of wearables forever. Maybe I'll make my own someday. Maybe I'll get a Pebble now that they're back-ish. I'll never get anything with wearOS on it again. Hell after the last year I might never get something with Android/iOS again either.
Wait till you can have your pacemaker play the Netflix sound for 10% off the family plan
Ok RFK. Let's see you and all of Trump's squad do it first, and make sure it's public in realtime. I'd love to see timestamps each and every time he reads AOC tweets.
Thing is putting the horrific privacy concerns aside it’s not like it’s a bad idea from a health perspective. Everybody being simply more aware of the things their body is doing is immensely helpful on a societal scale.
Problem is there aren’t any devices that are local only or otherwise truly private. Apple stores your data locally on your phone which is good, but there’s no guarantee it’ll always be that way.
Pass a law that protects wearable health data under HIPAA and I’d consider it.
Gadgetbridge?
Pass a law that protects wearable health data under HIPAA and I’d consider it.
And then the next bunch of fascists come in and seize all that data. Or the TLAs do it covertly.
We need strong data protection laws, but we also need strong technical measures to prevent intrusion.
And robust incentives for the good guys to keep a step or two ahead of the jerks
This is my exact thought. My state recently passed a law requiring drivers' phones to be in hands free mode which means connecting phone to vehicle. Data sharing and security on vehicles is so under regulated. Seems like another way to forcibly track us and sell our info.
I thought there were devices like this you could buy as a kit and build yourself that were local and private.
Yeh bangle.JS is this I think
Not that I can easily find. Especially one that can be bought off the shelf by the average consumer.
The competition in the wearable space has narrowed in general. If you know of any it’d be really helpful to share, I know I’d be interested.
Every time I see this Nazi Aristocrat, I am reminded that I have to sharpen my guillotine.
What about sporting insertables instead?
They try pushing a warable onto me, and I'll insert it in them.
I'm gonna need a detailed explanation of exactly what you mean, for the purposes of clear and effective communication.
Insertables go into your butt.
Go on...
Just yours though. All of them.
Put the doll down fella
...but not too far!
The government's job is to regulate sex toys so that all insertables have a flared end. MAGA wants to end all sex toy regulation. We should definitely protest this, and wave our dildos proudly.
As a non American, even I can see this is just a scam to further invade privacy and the data used to get increase health insurance costs
Fuck you RFK my Casio can't and won't connect to the internet, go swim in more sewage you dolt
Guess we’ll cut food stamps but tell people who can afford to to get a watch
Let them wear watches.
Man, I feel sick, lemme check my health watch.
