And because I had to try it…

There’s no excuse for that shit. I could see some 5 foot tall woman being nervous of a big black guy. It’s not alright, but society isn’t perfect and I’m not going to pretend it is.
But when the question is clearly and blatantly racist and Google assumes the victim is the problem? That’s every sort of fucked up.

Problem solved. Now I need to finally change my email address. I’ve definitely put that off too long.


Yeah, I had a sub for storage since Google cut down what they give for free and I’d used gdrive quite a bit. That gives their AI as well, so when I cancelled I just gave them the screenshots as my reason for cancelling.
I’ve had good results with MEGA as a replacement for Google cloud storage. End-to-end zero knowledge encryption (so, among other things, they can’t use your data for AI training), and a native Linux client that works well.
That could be nice for the things I want to give others access to, I’ll check it out. Haven’t really thought of them since that whole Kim Dotcom thing.
My issue is mainly solitary nerd who wants access to all of the things from all of the places, so I set up a 5G line that does nothing but share my main monitor display and files to my phone and auto syncing of some files to multiple or all devices.
A fun way to do backups, access, and nerdy tinkering together.
