Yes work is down. Total economic output is down. Many people are working from home, which means less driving. This isn't controversial.

F-150's are the classic work truck. Business is down across most sectors these days, work trucks aren't getting the wear and tear. And I'd wager that with so many people being either out of work or on reduced hours, driving i

What if political dissidents don't want to give their phone numbers to the former head of Twitter security on the eve of President Biden's re-engagement with the Islamic theocracy of Iran?

>the people Doesn't say which people, certainly doesn't imply slavery. The people the Pharaoh addresses seem to be foremen. And it only implies that the people addressed were distributing straw, not making bricks. 6 And Pharaoh

Are there really people who didn’t sell on Friday? Did people forget the whole reason GME was mooning? LOL

It doesn’t even say they made bricks.

Does anybody even buy “apps” any more? Google and Apple have such terrible stores, I think the last “app” I actually bought was like five years ago. Plus they all seem to stop working with regularity. The phone and tablet scene is trash and

It wasn’t slaves, and it wasn’t Jews (who didn’t exist at the time the pyramids were built), this has been known for over a hundred years. But victimhood narratives are often too useful to let go, even when they have no basis in reality.

Stadia’s terribly laggy. Also hardware is cheap, why wouldn’t I just run it all myself? Just yet another attempt to get people renting instead of owning.

Calling a Communist Sikh uprising a “farmer’s protest” is a little disingenuous.

It’s not unfounded, and NYU risks serious damage to their reputation and credibility with editorial garbage like this. It’s OK though, right wingers are leaving the lefty-liberal-commusocial big tech censor-sphere at record rates. Every ide

I’d prefer not. I can get information on all the newest trends and thinks by opening any one of the now nearly identically policed social media sites, news aggregators, and video sharing sites, if I wish. But I don’t wish.

I don’t expose any information about myself online, especially to lefties, who knows what innocent remark will be cancel fodder in a week or two. I don’t need to be wheedled or badgered for not being aware of the latest trend, or for buckin

The Fediverse is great - everybody is segregating into their little private areas. I for one can’t stand woke people and especially the leftie-commie people, and there are servers which they steer clear of. There is absolutely no reason to

Good point - might as well reduce that when possible.

Dante's a weird one. Forgotten in his own time, Inferno was found concealed IN A JAR when a cathedral was being remodeled about a hundred years after his death or so.

Then again, mocking and taunting people for using X11, which works great for most people, repeating all over every social media outlet that “X11 is dead use Wayland LOL,” giggling about how once IBM pulls its developers from X11 that “nyaaa

I have no need for it. I also don’t care for IBM / Red Hat’s “viral” marketing, it’s really just terrible shilling. Nobody wants Wayland. Nobody needs it. We are tired of hearing about how IBM will pull its X.org developer - just shit

The slippery slope is real, though. We all know it by now.

Nope, I’ve got it forwards. I carry a little card with me that says “always do the opposite of what industry groups and bodies tell you to do” and this attitude works out great for me, most of the time. I’ll just keep doing what I’m doing,

Lawyers often get involved, and it’s better to be cautious. I’ll be leaving the insurance industry (which is NOT your friend even if you are a client) advice aside here. Accident it is. I won’t be language policed by an insurance industry m

Yet another reason to avoid retailers now. They generally can’t compete on price, haven’t tried for years. Now they want to monitor me in ever more insidious ways? It’s creepy and this data will all eventually be sold and aggregated by the

Rosenfeld’s admitted that they don’t NEED need your phone number, so why does he still need it? I didn’t give Zucc my phone number, I didn’t give it to Suzy, Jeff, Larry, or Sergei. So why’s Rosenfeld need it? He doesn’t, but he does. It’s

Signal needs your phone number and is run by a "former" Twitter person. It just smells funny.

Anything you say could imply fault, sadly. It's a lawyer's call after all.

by Jkvngt 6y ago
Calling a collision or allision an "accident" is what you do because otherwise you could be admitting fault. And top-down language policing like this isn't an actual change unless people catch on. Often it takes an enormous,
