Why the quotes? It looks much better.

Didn't swiftpad or whatever its called send every key pressed to Microsoft?

Not a China shill. China is horrible. Microsoft less so as they don't commit genocide in slow motion. But still, I think this sort of thing is more common than we think.

Use FOSS.

Ooh a lot of people here seem very pro-nuclear-power. That's cool!

Nah, for everything.

Damn. I'm much more of a craft beer person, but this is sad. Is just marking it down not an option?

Edit: Oh, never mind. They want to stop prices collapsing. Yeah, sounds like France. Forever bailing out their farmers 🙄

Antennapod?

If they have no infrastructure or legal presence in the UK they are not required to do shit. The UK can block them but that's about it.

The UK does not have extraterritorial jurisdiction! Whatever stupid shit they do on their shitty little island does not affect foreign firms that do not operate there.

The US has a third world prison system...

This is sort of off topic but the constraints credit card companies put on porn is ridiculous. Cannabis, sadly, is illegal federally. Porn is legal everywhere in the country.

I'd very much support legislation that required payment processors to not discriminate against any firm provided the business transaction is legal.

No. They'll need to fill out a form online before they go. Europe is only requiring this because the US has forced similar bullshit on Europeans for years cos "terrorism".

Ew. This sounds like massive public investment in space for massive private profits in space.

Its full of evangelical Christians. That and Anglo-Saxon culture even minus the evangelical Christians is very squeamish around sex. Just look at the different attitude towards talking to kids about sex that you find in the UK and on the Continent, even the Germanic countries tend to be a lot more open about this stuff than the UK.

The sad reality is most normal people are like this...

I hate that these articles are always couched in excusatory language like, "While motivated by a legitimate concern..."

These people are not your friends, they're your enemies. Don't accept their frame in the argument.

Normally I wouldn't sympathize with billionaires, but what a horrible way to die! Sadly I don't think they'll be rescued.

Certainly it is possible that they surfaced once they lost connection though... Even so, the search areas are huge

The EU is very much hit and miss. I do appreciate them putting Google, Meta, and Apple in their place, and some on the legislation regarding smart phones they have passed. But ultimately they want to have all your data for "security".

Still, I think the situation in the US is a bit worse.

Makes me want to donate to Firefox, not the Mozilla Foundation. To Firefox.

Puh. Mozilla is Google's pet that keeps them out of anti-trust court.

If true ew. I actually just recently learned that Windows 11 requires a Microsoft account (you can disable it by going into the registry) but it officially actually requires it. Fuck them.

40C is not 118F
