The same public libraries that vigorously defend the privacy of our reading lists

The Patriot act allows the feds to get the books you’ve checked out at your local library.

I do on my laptop. Mostly so I can present with one user that has a clean browser history.

My main user has access to all my porn.

Not only that, but bare in mind that most government employees are there to do a job. They don’t always agree with the laws they have to enforce and sometimes they will make it as challenging as possible for fascist ideas like this go through.

Complaining to them is like complaining to the checkout cashier at your grocery store that the prices are too high.

She said this as some sort of “gotcha”.

So before we miss the point here …

It is not okay to deport people without due process, even if that person is a cannibal!

This behavior seems to be very similar to NFL stars and how they never wanted their kids to play football.

Everyone involved knows how dangerous social media/football is and many of them are in positions to actually do something about it. But because it benefits them personally, they won’t even rock the boat.

I remember reading an article in the early 2000s about how plastic recycling was essentially China buying plastic en bulk to only bury it. Once they saw it was poisoning their water they stopped, which effectively stopped plastic recycling in a lot of areas.

Today, I still try to recycle plastic if I can. I try to limit my use if I can help it but it’s so fucking hard. I’ve recently learned that glass isn’t even recycled in my area. (It’s crushed and then sold as aggregate filler.)

Aluminum cans aren’t recycled like they used to because they have a plastic lining now.

We really need to force companies to take back their products or at minimum pay a tax so that localities can actually recycle their trash.

No, his ball.

I’m on the same page. I’m a bit of a wonk and, yeah, politico has a perspective but I wouldn’t call it right wing. Centralist, to an extent.

Not to be pedantic, not holding copyright ≠ FOSS.

FOSS explicitly means that the developer has a copyright and is explicitly giving a license for people to use it with FOSS provisions.

It would be more accurate to say AI Vibe code is in the public domain.

In a completely unrelated move, Ring will partner with a complete difference company that will pay 20% above what Flock was paying.

I wonder if removing the cameras is the best move.

It might be better to let them run but have them watching a TV streaming Disney movies.

Then drop the dime to Disney that they are copying their IP.

Oh this shit is still going on. There were people in the late 90s early 00s that were counting down the days when the Olsen twins would turn 18.

Would not surprise me one bit if there are websites dedicated other child celebrities.

You know what the difference is between a million dollars and a billion dollars?

A billion dollars.

Those who make $200k have more in common with people in poverty than people who are billionaires.

I make good money but I am not under any illusion that a bad accident or a medical issue will wipe out my savings in a heartbeat. Just because I can afford to go on vacation doesn’t mean that I don’t understand what it means to be “working class”.

I am working class and their ally. All you’re doing is intentionally creating a wedge between “well off” people and the poor instead of coalescing together to attack the actual capital class.

Just because they aren’t at the poverty line doesn’t mean that they aren’t working class. Unless they can live without working, they are the definition of working class.

Don’t get distracted by those who hoard wealth.

Yeah…even if you prevail in the circuit court, it’s getting overturned at SCOTUS.

They absolutely do but only to shit on them for not looking feminine enough.

My understanding is that if your community is not adult content and you aren’t on any adult servers, you won’t need to ID verify. But I suspect it’s only a matter of time before all accounts are required to verify.

If people didn’t leave Twitter when it became an unholy cestpool of alt-right propaganda, they have chosen to stay there because their audience is the alt-right.
