Nothing will change until the prosecutors who hide the evidence face serving the time for the crime they're prosecuting, or more.

Hide evidence in murder trial? You get the murder sentence. Thats the price you pay for breaking the law and making someone else suffer those terms.

People don't understand the anything you say can and will be used against you part of their Miranda rights. It holds true even if you aren't arrested. Don't cooperate with the police.

I only wear wool socks and work from home. I can easily go 4-5 days if I've only gone outside to get groceries or whatnot.

If I'm going out to socialize though and it's been more than 2 days I'll get a fresh pair.

Extra traffic that their infrastructure can't handle since he fired all the people that knew how.

Like reddit, he also probably sees it as losing millions of dollars for data he wants to be paid for.

So losing money from degraded services and losing potential money from data being taken.

What's worth more - the loss of ad revenue from walled login, or the loss of potential revenue selling the data

You think the people protesting bud for this are smart enough to know the difference and not buy something else by them? I'd be shocked if we could pick 10 protestors and more than 2 hadn't bought another product by them.

That's also a fantastic way to end up in jail, which I wouldn't be opposed to spez getting familiar with

GOP: well, we gave it back to Russia, but we still have American citizens there, so we're just going to keep 2 senators to ensure they're represented.

Dems: but we need to get representation for Puerto Rico and DC!

GOP: they've never had it, we're just trying to keep the status quo!

We got dental and in theory pharma with this minority government. Maybe the NDP can twist their arm into voting reforms next time if we get another?

Energy density on these are woefully inadequate for cars, but that doesn't matter for stationary storage which is what this is for.

Wow, I never knew that Rif had a profit sharing agreement that spez cancelled. And to then attack the devs, this is insane.

Also the way this was worded really made me think of Trump

We have had many conversations — well, not with RIF, he never wanted to talk to us — but with the others, we were having such conversations, and we’ll work with the others. A deadline is important, otherwise these things just linger and linger and linger

This sounds like a set up for if Trump wins.

Trump: Im the world's savior, I prevented World War 3 with Russia by giving them back their illegally stolen Alaska. No president has ever done anything so great for the world!

This is pretty much what went wrong. It's a legit problem when google presents a search result by parsing through an article, providing their own summary, and prevents a click. You can even see this on non news searches. You might search for something like what's the largest river in eastern Europe, and it'll return a result from a webpage half way down the webpage and show it as an excerpt (totally made up example). Now I don't need to visit the website, preventing ad revenue.

When you simply post a link on something like Meta, the news organizations themselves are providing the summary you see when you post it. If they're so damned worried about people not clicking links because their provided summary prevents you from reading the article, that isn't Google or Meta's fault. Change the snippet, or don't provide one.

It's insane that the media groups are now trying to say it's anti competitive for meta to not allow people to post news articles now and are trying to force them to allow it. You must allow people to post links, and you must pay us if they do. It's crazy talk.

I'm big on the hate Meta bandwagon and I despise using their service and rarely touch it, but this is all our governments fault. This didn't have to turn out like this.

All they had to do was make a special agreement for 3rd party apps that require vetting to get cheaper API access. Then you can keep the higher price for other non mobile app uses. It's still baffling that RIF had a profit sharing agreement with Reddit that /u/spez exited from and then goes onto act like they're all freeloaders.

I'm going to get downvoted to hell here, but if you defend google here, you should be defending Tesla when someone severely misuses auto-pilot.

Play games on AP and don't pay attention causing crash, not Tesla's fault. Drive off a bridge cause the GPS tells you to, not Google's fault.

You're responsible for driving your car at all times.
