As we learned from the reddit app changes, the ending of Netflix account sharing, etc etc the people who will take this action are few enough not to matter. Regretfully.

The strategy here is to be able to say Biden was impeached, just like Trump was, when it comes to 2024. Devalue the process. Neutralize Trump's impeachments. You say Biden's is illegitimate? So does trump about his.

It doesn't matter to this strategy if the claims have any value. It doesn't matter if they never get voted on, either. Just having an inquiry could be enough.

How is it "outrageous" when you're accessing a service through a means that is not supported, and likely frowned upon? They are not obligated to make everything work through those means.

There it is, buried in paragraph 26:

"He and his colleagues believe that the company's move was the result of workers' decision to unionize."

I'd argue this is not a valid "technology" topic, and is instead more about capitalism, workers' rights, etc.

Biden and Trump are the same, and the country is worse off now than in 2020? You are clinically insane.

So .. don't vote? There absolutely is a No Trump voting option - only one - and it's voting for Biden. There are several Yes Trump voting options: vote for Trump specifically, vote for a third party candidate, or vote for no one. It's not that complicated.

Do the electoral map and electoral college make this difficult to achieve? Of course. But we can only win if we vote, and are guaranteed to lose if we don't.

The fascists love voter apathy. Don't do their job for them.

I've read the article and still have no idea what supposed issue is going on in private backyards that the NYPD needs to see.

A meme like this is what happens when you believe the GOP that doing anything to benefit regular people is communism.

There's surely a name for when people react with disdain to even the slightest move in the right direction.

"Should have done it earlier" "Not enough" "It'll probably get shot down in court" "Why bother"

This is the deceit of these laws. They pretend to be about a genuine "problem", giving a degree of plausibility, just like you are doing now. But we should not be fooled. The real motivation is to deter voting by non GOP groups.

In this case, consider which areas have long lines and which don't. You're not sure? Look at which areas have had the number of voting places reduced. Look at which groups find it difficult to vote during weekday working hours, and who is limiting weekend voting and early/late voting hours.

It's always been illegal to campaign within X feet of a polling place. Banning water and snacks is irrelevant to that. You could never just set up campaigning tents anywhere you wanted. Was there really an epidemic of lawless tent-weilding water and snacks givers before this law? "How do you solve for that?" You don't because it's not a real problem, the law is simply designed to make it difficult to stay in line in mainly non GOP overloaded voting places, to make people give up and go home.

For every proton post, can we please get a bot that auto posts these, to save everyone the effort:

  • proton isn't private / yes it is / they never claimed to be
  • wasnt there a case when they shared that activist account / you have the facts wrong, here's what actually happened
  • [insert proton app name] for Linux when? / Linux is only x% of user base
  • proton needs to finish [insert proton app name] before starting something new / they are different teams so not relevant
  • proton needs to make X / no they don't
  • people shouldn't put all their eggs in one basket / don't use the service then

Thanks!

Not a single mention in almost all of the bankruptcy articles, including this one, that it is majority-owned by Leonard Green & Partners, a private equity firm. A story as old as time: get bought out by private equity, collapse under the weight of your new debt burden.

"Joann previously went private in 2011 — when it was purchased by Leonard Green & Partners for about $1.6 billion. A decade later Joann, still majority owned by the equity firm, returned to the public market with an initial public offering at $12 a share." Source: https://apnews.com/...

I did notice that the CEO who decided to pay a single podcaster 200 million dollars never got laid off. Same guy whose big expensive bet on several other exclusive podcast deals failed spectacularly.

It will be like the Netflix exodus, the reddit exodus, etc. They'll make more money. The best you can do is be true to yourself and not participate if you don't want to.
