Yep. Innocent until proven guilty, and not a single one of them was so much as indicted, much less charged or convicted. Blatant disregard for the constitution as well as human rights, everyone all the way up the chain of command needs to be prosecuted for this.

How on Earth did they manage to fuck this up?

They were the leading firm in a field where having the most data makes yours the most accurate tests. Their product sold for hundreds of dollars a pop, with practically zero marginal costs to run the tests. And they were really popular, selling like hotcakes.

It's insane just how astoundingly incompetent upper management can be sometimes.

People didn't go to Bluesky because of an informed choice based on features or security. People went to Bluesky because that's where everyone they want to follow went.

Let's see...

  • Nazism
  • McCarthyism
  • Vietnam War
  • Racial Injustice
  • South African Apartheid
  • Occupy Wall Street
  • Gaza Genocide
  • etc.

I am curious. Has there ever been a wide-scale student protest movement that WASN'T unequivocally vindicated by history?

"Putin's puppet administration says NATO should cede everything to Putin, news at 11."

No platform whatsoever. Literally his only game plan is to antagonize every single policy the Democrats make the world a tiny bit better with.

If Biden made a PSA about how playing Russian roulette is bad, we'd get President-elect Vance tomorrow. And given how blindly these lemmings follow, perhaps President-elect Johnson the day after that, etc.

Polyglotism. Being able to speak every language would be practically a superpower.

Valve has always been pretty awful at granular privacy. For the longest time, no settings between "hide literally everything" and "broadcast to everyone I know every time I purchase or play anything."

Still no setting between those two options, but at least it's on a game-by-game basis now.

I think a good start would be to stop allowing Republicans to raid Social Security for quick cash, like they've been constantly doing since the Reagan administration.

Friendly reminder that Social Security is a separate government program that funds itself.

What Musk is talking about is stealing from Social Security in order to cut taxes elsewhere (namely cutting taxes for people like Musk).

TL;DR this is related to Tesla's Autopilot (the rule "requires automakers to report crashes if advanced driver-assistance or autonomous-driving technologies were engaged within 30 seconds of impact"). Musk wants to not be held accountable for damages and casualties caused by his shitty software.

The postal service doesn't lose money, it costs money.

By this logic, the interstate highway system and the military both lose billions! Is Trump going to privatize them too?
