A union… partaking in unionizing efforts… is them trying to “stay relevant”? That’s like saying “LeBron James plays basketball to stay relevant”. That’s his job.

I don’t know anything about how effective that might be, but I imagine the logistics of transporting a live, deadly virus would be a nightmare.

If you own a Mac, you can find the SQLite database of your messages at ~/Library/Messages/chat.db. Back it up regularly. If using a terminal, be sure to grant it Full Disk Access.

I genuinely cannot believe the number of people who are equating the actions of a private organization to authoritarianism and “cancel culture”. Is this not the free market working as intended? That the public has a voice in who/what s

It’s not just the opinions he’s held (some of which are incredibly disgusting) but it’s also the things he’s done at MIT. I encourage you to read the stories [1] of those who have interacted with him. This isn’t “cancel culture gone mad”, t

Dammit, I thought this was actual audio intercom. Looks great though, going to keep this in my back pocket.

Why take that chance when you can kill it with an incredibly simple vaccine?

We absolutely can find more productive things for those folks to do. America’s infrastructure needs rebuilding, and clean energy can create so many jobs. A humane society doesn’t necessitate lack of access to jobs.

This is what the XFL was supposed to fix, but that didn’t end well... But seriously, it’s even worse in person. I’ve only ever gone to one football game in person and it was almost unbearable. At least on TV you have commercials to see.

I find it hard to believe that ICE does anything useful for national security. Pure government waste.

In that case, the news seems pretty positive even with the low numbers, right? It seems that even if the virus evolves we can at least prevent deaths.

Why qualify BLM with communism? It’s very clearly a social movement, and while there are plenty of socialists and communists involved, they are not actively advocating for a communist state.

No government body was restricting their free speech. It was only the free market refusing to do business with them.

I'm a CS major that does broadcast engineering for my university's athletics program. Sports are not a major focus at my school, so our TV budget is relatively small. That makes most good graphics playout software out of our reach

There’s a difference between what happened to Parler (vendors refusing to do business with them) and Facebook (relatively more self reliant).

Is the risk that’s being assessed by these trials coming from the delivery method of the vaccine? Perhaps maybe there’s a way to get around some of those regulations.

And of course, the irony is that part of the frustrations from this summer’s protests is the fact that people of color get 10+ year sentences for things like drug offenses at a much higher rate than white people.

My father was a farmer in Punjab. I have family at these protests right now. I can tell you that the anger is very real. Their livelihoods are being stripped away from them just so Modi’s friends can make a quick buck. I like free markets,

This is an incredible oversimplification of the left. I know plenty of leftists (like, hardcore socialists) who probably wouldn’t show that to their kid either. Do you really think Amazon sells sex toys because it fits some leftist agenda o
