Make it dad’s ex-wife to really get to him.

For every day use, I use it. It’s convenient.

If I’m traveling or going to a protest, I’ll turn it off. I also make sure I know the ways to disable it.

They will definitely ask if you purchased anything. You can lie but if you get caught expect little to no leniency.

Can you get away with it? Probably, for some stuff. Is it worth it? You’re rolling some dice, you decide.

It’s almost impossible to tell or coordinate.

What currency is the universal wage in? USD? EUR? CNY?

Is it the same everywhere? Do you adjust for purchasing power? How?

What you’re suggesting requires global cooperation on a scale that is inconceivable today. Nations would have to give up economic power in ways that no one would do today. You’d need a global government. We are nowhere near that and probably won’t ever be unless an extraterrestrial threat exists.

Hope Florida is run by DeSantis’s wife has been involved in shady dealings.

The meeting marked an attempt by the board to provide clarity as House Republicans probe a $10 million donation that Hope Florida, a charity and welfare program spearheaded by First Lady Casey DeSantis, received from a Medicaid settlement in October. Lawmakers are now investigating whether the foundation funneled those millions to political campaigns against the failed ballot referendum to legalize recreational marijuana.

The foundation’s executive director, Erik Dellenback, announced his resignation a day after legislators grilled the foundation’s leaders about the donation funds during a House budget committee meeting.

The Tampa Bay Times reported that Hope Florida split the $10 million evenly between Secure Florida’s Future and Save Our Society from Drugs — organizations that promptly poured a collective $8.5 million into Keep Florida Clean, a political action committee created to defeat Amendment 3 and run by Gov. Ron DeSantis’ then-chief of staff James Uthmeier.

From the Tampa Bay Times article:

Weeks after the DeSantis administration steered $10 million from a Medicaid settlement to a charity spearheaded by the first lady, the Hope Florida Foundation sent $5 million apiece to two separate organizations that gave millions to a political committee waging an anti-marijuana campaign championed by the governor.

Weird how he can have no chin and look like that character.

Stop spending so much time on it.

This isn’t as forward thinking as you’d want it to be.

For as much as they are abused, “IP laws” protect small and individual inventors, writers, composers, etc.

With no patent, copyright or trademark protections the billionaires will own or bury everything.

What is needed is to bring the laws back to their intended purpose.

Fuck off, Florida. The ocean can’t take you soon enough.

I hope there are logs.

It’s opting you in by default which some people, justifiably, might not like. If you take Apple at their word, it’s should be safe to leave on.

It’s unclear if they were already gathering this data but with no way to opt out.

Not necessarily. You can’t just say games should cost more because of inflation.

You’d have to take into account the cost to produce the game and the size of the market.

The only thing keeping TSLA’s stock price so high is the perception that it’s a tech company. They’d have to replace Elon with another tech CEO that can spew bullshit about tech advances being right around the corner. That probably will not save it as a car company.

I’d rather see the company fail before Elon and other majority share holders can cash out.

Except the ones played by Jack Black.

Sus. Don’t trust random people on the internet.

There’s an old internet adage from the early days: “Don’t trust you can’t punch in the face.”

This isn’t paranoid. It’s basic safety. Talking about personal stuff to people you don’t know irl is inherently risky.

If you’re in need of a confidant, find someone you know in real life who’s trust you can verify or a professional.

This user has had other posts deleted.

Yep. And he was kind of a hanger-on with the elite and famous but was mostly rejected by them. A lot of his shitty behavior probably stems from being rejected and being bad at business to the point that he went to the Russians for loans and got compromised.

It’s a measure of how much energy you can uselessly burn with other people’s money.

I’d like to see organization focused instances. Like a local government that runs an instance and moderates it. NGOs, clubs, sport leagues, etc. could do it.

It might become a nightmare of overlapping content, hierarchies and responsibilities, though.

It’s traditional in open source to have really terrible names.
