Yes.
The answer is that this is all a bunch of stupid bullshit and that the Trumplicans truly don’t give a damn about laws that no one can force them to follow.
At this point, there’s really no point in trying to look for consistency or rational justification for anything these people do.
The article makes me wonder if Waltz is intentionally countering the counter-revolution.
Either that, or he’s just stupid as fuck.
Maybe both.
All the apps that collect user data that has nothing to do with the actual function or purpose of the app.
Like–why does this solo word puzzle game need access to my contact list, camera, and location?
Article littered with affiliate links.
And it also doesn’t make sense.
Maybe they’re trying to get potential players of Elder Scrolls VI so hyped that they’ll still play the new game even if it’s sold ‘games as a service’ style
in which case, fuck that
What a cool idea!
Yeah, there have been numerous studies on this, and your impression aligns with the outcomes of those studies:

https://www.apa.org/monitor/2025/01/rise-of-4-day-workweek
Given that the research shows a four-day workweek gets better results for everyone (including employers), it’s worth asking why we don’t have one–who is preventing it?
The most important outcome of this, of course, is that it makes for better worker conditions.
I’m not 100% sure, but I think this picture was AI generated.

A handful of countries have four-day workweeks.
If we’re not going to get rid of the system in the United States where we all have to work for the majority of our lives just to survive, then the four-day workweek is a good starting compromise.
We could easily do so if not for the billionaires.
Yeah, I think they’re banning/blocking using AI right now. Either that, or they literally have the moderators fully on board with their Right-wing campaign.
If you really want to see what things like banning/suspension do, check out your Contributor Quality Score (CQS) here when you can: https://old.reddit.com/r/cqs/
I went from ‘Highest’ to ‘Lowest’ with one ban, and as far as I can tell, your CQS has an impact on the visibility of your posts.
I don’t trust any of these polls.
There is no system of government in the world that has been able to stand up to individuals with billions and billions of dollars.
The billions and billions of dollars have all the power and no system can escape that power.
We need to stop the billionaires.
Things aren’t bad for him yet, and that’s the only way he knows if things are bad.
Exhorder once got kicked off a tour with Dead Horse in the 1990s because one of their band members took a shit in a styrofoam container and put it on the lunch buffet with all the other food. The first person who opened the container was not amused.
Investigators were alerted to his accounts after finding an unusually high number of log-ins and failed log-ins from an unfamiliar devices, locations, or networks. That information is tracked by Google, per the affidavit. Other unusual activity was traced through Payne’s VPN or network provider.
So, Google stopped him, and his VPN provider. I’d like to know who his VPN provider was.
Here’s what an auto-translation gave me: “If you are a squirrel, then I am a sinner.”
They’re openly rejecting court order and legal precedent.
Unless someone starts enforcing these court orders, they’re just going to keep doing things.
They’re running the Nazi playbook. Word for word, step by step, just updated with newer propaganda.
what did the turtle type while crawling across the keyboard?
maybe it was a secret turtle message
This is so good.
1990s TNG had a good heart.
Bandcamp does some pretty cool things even though it’s now owned by a Business-2-Business music licensing company. Makes me wonder how many Bandcamp artists have had their songs ‘licensed’ by Songtrder (the ‘biggest music licensing platform in the world’) to other companies without the artists’ consent.
