Zeno’s (orgasm) paradox.

Niccol will still be expected to work from the Seattle office at least three days a week

Except when he’s flying around the country/world to other locations.

Especially since it specifically highlights porn in a different color, it labeled my VPN IP as “Likes Porn”.

You characterize George Carlin as a simple contrarian?

Where’s your encrypted USB recovery key stored?! Is it encrypted USBs all the way down?

Odd coming from someone who is fucking retired.

I’d suspect he sacrificed work-life balance his whole career (yes, CEOs are known for golfing and vacations, but I bet they still think of work 24/7). So just like people complaining about student loan forgiveness, some people get so angry if they perceive someone might have an easier experience than they did.

It’s a very searchable name

I’m psyched for you! I just researched hardware benchmarks and ordered a new AMD laptop and planned to run Linux. But I didn’t research well, because the Wifi card doesn’t have official drivers yet and I couldn’t be bothered to learn to edit, make from source, and load alternate drivers, so I retreated to Win10 for a little. I’ll try again later.

I was always suspicious of male OB/GYN, it seems like an unusual specialty to choose for purely altruistic reasons.

Of course, algorithms! The answer was right there all along!

I think you’re getting downvotes because you’re projecting a narrative onto @Reyali and using quotes around non-quotes. They didn’t say they were “probably not right.”

I agree, everyone should be skeptical of information someone else is sharing, because we can’t assume intention. But what would motivate someone to say “I’m probably not right” anyway?

What’s interesting to me is that for you, your guard went up for someone admitting a potential of having missed something, which may make you more susceptible to people who are confidently wrong.

Most others’ reaction is the opposite, taking their statement as an attempt to be genuine and open to feedback. If someone invites feedback, is willing to admit they might be wrong, that’s a much better starting point for conversation.

Finally, a religion that makes sense.

All my KPIs are saying this is a win.

Fediverwe is a lot better than most social media for now…

But not by any virtue other than being too small to matter. Reddit started pretty good, too.

The EFF isn’t a fan and various other rights orgs have worked against KOSA.

Thanks for the context in this specific case in response to my last paragraph.

So you’re saying it could have been done 6 months ago but is only now being done in the 4th year of Biden’s term?

By the content of the post, I’d imagine.

People don’t use hashtags on a lot of sensitive topics, because they already fear suppression within Tiktok. The US based operation is already partially owned by Oracle (and all of Larry Ellison’s shenanigans) and Walmart as of 2020. For example, since October, Tiktok creators went to extreme lengths to mask the content of pro-Palestinian news, including using hand written note cards or other things that are difficult for automated filters to flag. Anti-establishment messages were already suppressed and widely brigaded by Zionists.

Most assuredly, the licensing of the spectrum comes with requirements and strings, so those broadcasters are regulated. They must follow the rules or risk their license.

However, radio licensing came about to avoid broadcast “collisions” for amateur radio operators in ~1912. Regulations came later under the FCC in 1934.

These same collisions are not applicable to the internet (or rather, we’ve already used methods to avoid them, like DNS).

This is the “fourth year surge,” where 1st term presidents rush to get a lot of positive policy change so they look like they’re doing a good job. They tend to pass more legislation and use fewer executive orders during this time.

Some of the policy that previous presidents are best known for were passed during this surge time, including Social Security, the Fair Labor Standards Act, Civil Rights Act, Federal Highway Aid Act, Equal Pay act, etc.

Here, asking “why” is asking “what is their incentive”.

There may be some merit to saying that a president is an entire branch of government and cycling out staff in key positions to get them in political alignment can take a lot of time. Biden’s admin has had to re-staff many departments after Trump.

Isn’t broadcast licensing specifically about partitioning radio spectrum space, which isn’t applicable here? US-based social media isn’t licensed and applying radio era law to internet may not be appropriate.
