Also, grocery stores have also gotten into the Big Data game.

2018-07-31 20:27:32 UTC

And you may not have even noticed.

2018-07-31 20:27:36 UTC

they've been in that game

2018-07-31 20:27:44 UTC

way before google

2018-07-31 20:27:55 UTC

those little cards that give you discounts

2018-07-31 20:28:04 UTC

the way i see it

2018-07-31 20:28:08 UTC

they can have that data

2018-07-31 20:28:10 UTC

i dont mind

2018-07-31 20:28:11 UTC

they will continue and just then just either ignore it (dan harmon) or complain about it (james gunn) when it is used against people "on their side"

2018-07-31 20:28:20 UTC

it might actually reduce food waste

2018-07-31 20:28:25 UTC

its that why they rearrange the store layout every now and then??

2018-07-31 20:28:26 UTC

if they know better what to get you know

2018-07-31 20:28:37 UTC

grocery stores are in the big data game since forever

2018-07-31 20:28:37 UTC

There's a difference, Cytos.

2018-07-31 20:28:46 UTC

the way i heard it works, companies pay to have their producs on a better spot

2018-07-31 20:28:47 UTC

Just tracking what sells and what doesn't

2018-07-31 20:28:52 UTC

that's one thing entirely

2018-07-31 20:29:02 UTC

But when you're able to attach a name to purchase habits

2018-07-31 20:29:24 UTC

That's something completely different

2018-07-31 20:29:45 UTC

CVS does it. Walgreens does it. Giant does it.

2018-07-31 20:29:52 UTC

Kroger does it.

2018-07-31 20:30:03 UTC

remember when target was able to predict that girl's pregnancy based off purchasing habits

2018-07-31 20:30:05 UTC

I just recently found out that Walmart is able to do it.

2018-07-31 20:30:09 UTC

without even needing a card.

2018-07-31 20:30:11 UTC

the way i see it its a self control kind of thing

2018-07-31 20:30:22 UTC

they can offer you things all you want, you only buy what you buy

2018-07-31 20:30:42 UTC

assuming you do this, they will only offer you what you buy after the algorithm learned sufficiently

2018-07-31 20:30:51 UTC

and THAT is convenience

2018-07-31 20:31:00 UTC

gotta stick to dem principles though

2018-07-31 20:31:01 UTC

Hell, Wal-Mart can actually likely track items you looked at in the store.

2018-07-31 20:31:12 UTC

It's disturbing.

2018-07-31 20:31:25 UTC

XD yeah i mean if they have that facial recognition thing they jsut need camerras

2018-07-31 20:31:41 UTC

A local wal-mart accidentally showed the wrong surveillance footage at one of the stalls

2018-07-31 20:32:07 UTC

had yellow boxes around individuals, with products and faces being tracked.

2018-07-31 20:32:19 UTC

yeah lol

2018-07-31 20:32:29 UTC

I don't believe I've ever been so spooked.

2018-07-31 20:32:38 UTC

Like, do it, fine, whatever

2018-07-31 20:32:42 UTC

just don't let me see it being done.

2018-07-31 20:32:50 UTC

2018-07-31 20:32:59 UTC

2018-07-31 20:35:35 UTC

2018-07-31 20:35:39 UTC

2018-07-31 20:35:50 UTC

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_feminism

2018-07-31 20:38:48 UTC

no matter what i eat

2018-07-31 20:39:06 UTC

XD this critical theory nonesense is jsut too much

2018-07-31 20:39:40 UTC

They also deal so poorly with being criticised in return, which makes me laugh.

2018-07-31 20:39:41 UTC

the only thing being obese intersects with is diabeetus

2018-07-31 20:39:52 UTC

or as i liek to say

2018-07-31 20:39:57 UTC

diaYEETus

2018-07-31 20:40:11 UTC

How can something that you have to work for (or against) be a privilege? ๐Ÿค”

2018-07-31 20:40:33 UTC

Also, thanks for posting that while Im in the middle of my diet. 1 and 1/2 weeks to go

2018-07-31 20:41:04 UTC

cuz some people dont have to work for it

2018-07-31 20:41:11 UTC

Pissing off feminists is my new primary motivation to not be fat.

2018-07-31 20:42:18 UTC

This, "thin" privilege is a privilege of everyone. Nobody is born fat (some babies are but as they grow the go back to normal). So it's their own fault for being fat

2018-07-31 20:42:40 UTC

At best you can blame their parents if they let their kids eat anything and become fat in the early teens

2018-07-31 20:42:43 UTC

i mean u can have a thyroid disorder

2018-07-31 20:42:52 UTC

I do and not fat

2018-07-31 20:43:03 UTC

hyper or hypo?

2018-07-31 20:43:07 UTC

hypo

2018-07-31 20:43:21 UTC

My white cells attack my own thyroid ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

2018-07-31 20:43:23 UTC

FeelsBad

2018-07-31 20:43:25 UTC

:/

2018-07-31 20:43:40 UTC

yeah its hyper that is more associated with weight gain

2018-07-31 20:44:12 UTC

well not gain but more just being fat

2018-07-31 20:44:27 UTC

What pisses me off most is that the "body positivity" movement was originally about trying to raise the self-esteem of disfigured or physically disabled people. But then feminists stole the term and made it about fat women.

2018-07-31 20:44:28 UTC

lol u can be vegetarian and theres only so much your body will lose

2018-07-31 20:44:49 UTC

hyperthyroidism typically is weight loss iirc

2018-07-31 20:45:08 UTC

ohhh kk i have it backwards

2018-07-31 20:45:08 UTC

Yeah, thats what I heard. The T4 hormone helps losing weight

2018-07-31 20:45:28 UTC

75 mg every day brah

2018-07-31 20:45:51 UTC

XD yeah im talkin about before you get medication to treat it too

2018-07-31 20:46:05 UTC

I'm waiting for my T4 results, my doctor is fairly sure I have hypothyroidism

2018-07-31 20:46:47 UTC

low energy, hair loss, takes forever for me to lose weight

2018-07-31 20:46:57 UTC

I started my treatment at 15 years of age, now 26. I was never even close to fat. In fact I was a skinny kid/early teens. I did practice sports and had a normal diet. A pizza here, a mc donalds there just not everyday

2018-07-31 20:47:28 UTC

I hope you do get that confirmed because then you can start treatment for your symptoms and you'll recover before you know it.

2018-07-31 20:47:41 UTC

yeah I'd really like that

2018-07-31 20:48:00 UTC

that said, I'm still losing weight lol, it's just very slow

2018-07-31 20:48:03 UTC

How old are you, if you don't mind me asking

2018-07-31 20:48:05 UTC
