This is a fair point I hadn’t considered!

Boggles the mind how one can be a convicted felon and still be in the race, but if you’re in prison you can’t vote.

He doesn’t control much of anything, actually!

The king of Sweden has a similar exemption from the law, but he also doesn’t hold any political power. I also don’t know how waterproof his status is if he did something heinous enough.

Trump already has done heinous stuff.

And her opponent is a misogynistic chauvinist who mocks people with disabilities, diddles children, cheats on his wives, openly talks about sexually assaulting people, has open ties with Putin and Kim Jong-un, honestly I’d be here all day if I tried to scratch just the surface.

Yet voters were okay with him over a milquetoast career politician. She was held to a much higher standard than Trump ever was, hell she still is given that she is somehow being blamed for the farce that is Trump. Why don’t people blame him instead?

Which will work great until corporations implement systems that force it onto us. Microsoft building it into the operating system. Mozilla acquiring advertising companies and implementing AI bullshit. Google edging closer to having a monopoly on browsers.

I’ve learned nothing since I got my first phone and that bad boi didn’t even have a clock.

Yes, you’re reading it right, even if you pay, it doesn’t get rid of ads, they just stop tracking you.

🤢🤮

I hate what the internet has become.

At this rate society isn’t worth preserving.

I’m so excited for us to have two simultaneous pandemics.

I believe you’re allowed to run ads on free tiers and offer to remove them by paying. You’re not however allowed to track people without their consent, thus you can’t force personalised ads on users, and say that the only way to get rid of the privacy invasion is to pony up.

There are prison labour protections?

What does Iran have to do with things?

Dangerous. Don’t insert things without a flared base or some other appendage for easy removal. That thing looks less like a sex toy and more like a paperweight.

I feel this. It is satisfying, but it’s not really productive.

Well they do charge particularly hard for SSDs as well. They’ve found a way to eat the cake twice.

Companies primarily make decisions to maximise the profitability of someone and it’s never the consumer.

Likely born from frustration. It sucks knowing that the future you’re working towards is likely one you’ll never get to experience.

A small step in the right direction is still a step.

Let’s remember that the rich will have ways of making this happen even without it being legal. You don’t think that the criminalisation of abortion in various U.S. states actually affects the rich, right?
