It is vital that the peasants consumers use our AI to keep the Lords’ Shareholders’ happy.
It’s the billionaires and their special interests lobbyists who keep the politicians in their seat. They have their lobbyists threaten and browbeat the politicians with things such as attack ads and primary challengers to keep them working in their interests. Since the 1970s legislative transparency laws went into effect, The lobbyists can sit in on legislative committees to make sure the politicians are voting and speaking in their interests and not in the interests of the public.
The researchers at https://congressionalresearch.org/ claim that legislative transparency laws are root cause of many modern issues, like inequality, that the US is dealing with because they force politicians to work against the public interest and for the billionaires and their lobbyists.
Ah yes, the coloring on protestors’ signs, this is worse than a president wearing a tan suit. I’m so triggered.

Lots of these streams don’t show the commercials and instead just have blank airspace when the commercials are airing. But I don’t know if that applies to the superbowl streams though since some people like to watch those commercials.
Just speculating, but maybe it does something like where it checks the image against a CSAM database or something similar, so only images flagged in some government database get blurred.
Edit: or more likely it’s still in the testing stage and has to be enabled either by google or through some obscure setting.

You’ve got to remember that these are just simple voters. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know… morons.
On Apple Silicon Macs, you can set up Asahi(Fedora) Linux to dual boot. Or you can you use something like Parallels as a paid alternative to bootcamp.
It is literally ~60%-40% as of right now. I would hardly call that a crushing blow.
What is a pubnix?
Edit: Short for Public access UNIX apparently.
You are right about supporting the lesser evil. Even so not voting literally does not tally your vote for any candidate. In a metaphoric sense, it could be interpreted that way by media outlets and others with a political agenda.
I like it too. I wish I could compare it to current reddit, but I can only access it through old interface. And the current reddit is is too addicting to me to justify working around it.
I kinda hate that I like the sh version cause it will tempt me to sink time there.
Crimes of opportunity are not need based, they are want based. People take something because they want it and are unconcerned with the potential consequences of taking it. Even the cop quoted in your linked article admitted that 'Cars stolen for the purpose of committing another crime are not what’s behind the majority of thefts. ’
I would say my OC at least applies to the people who get caught. Maybe not always to those who actually do the crime.
I call it virtue signaling. It’s the same idea, just a clearer term for it.
Do those mythical organized thieves really exist? I think 80+% of crimes are crimes of opportunity done by vulnerable people like crackheads, mentally ill, or other low income people.
Politicians passing laws based on things they don’t understand?
aka virtue signaling
Yeah, I was referring to official forums for technical support or feature requests and the like. I don’t really think that everyday people were usually the ones who setup forums, it is website operators and other techies who set those up. The people who setup an independent forum are not the same people who setup a discord community. Discord has a much lower barrier to entry that usually results in a lower quality information and moderation than a forum would.
I mean, yeah, forums are harder, for sure. $20-35 monthly for a mail provider seems to high to me; I would expect that to be about the yearly cost. But, I don’t really have much experience with an email provider for that use case. Really the problem lies in that a website operator and a community maintainer are 2 very different types of people that rarely intersect.
Discourse is a forum software. Maybe you are mixing it up with something else like disqus?
Because the media uncritically parrots the companies PR talking points and then it’s suddenly the accepted terminology.
