  • Airbnb competes with itself, due to the individual hosts putting up their own listings. Or are you accusing them of being a cartel?

    Airbnbs are not actually bnbs. They don't have free breakfast. They are just a room.

    Businesses fail all the time. As long as they continue to have what I want at a price I want with the convenience I want, I'll keep using it. Just like ubers and DoorDash.

    Who cares if VCs waste their money on an unprofitable business as long as the hosts don't create a cartel?

  • I stayed at an Airbnb last weekend. Instead of paying over five hundred a night for a tiny non luxurious hotel room, I paid 300 a night (total, after splitting was 150) a night for a massive two bedroom apartment two blocks from the hotel room. Parking, everything included.

    It was cheaper and better than a hotel. Are you somehow gonna make the hotel lower their price? For that to happen, they would need competition.

  • But it won't be "OK" to do. And things that aren't OK can be prosecuted.

    You're expecting Biden to do your revolution for you lmao

    If the system is as broken as you say that you need the president to commit crimes, get out of your armchair.

  • I think their point is that once biology is involved it's no longer a social construct.

    I also think that people conflate sex and gender and it makes things unnecessarily confusing.

    For sake of argument let's stick with binary for now.

    There are words that describe sex. There are words that describe gender. And there are words that can be used as a shortcut for a combination of both.

    For example (and if you don't like my example substitute your own words): a masculine female is often called a tomboy or described as butch.

    TERFs probably feel that the term woman is a shortcut for feminine females, and that those who aren't female but are feminine are not Champagne, they are sparkling wine. And it's easy to see why someone would be insulted by that opinion. Strictly speaking, being told "you're not a woman" isn't necessarily an attack, or stating that you shouldn't exist. But yes (obviously!) people with extreme views jump onto that bandwagon and are willing to kill/oppress to make everyone the same cuz they can't handle weird people.

    Yes, trans people are weird (queer means weird!). But weird isn't bad, and people who think weird is bad are not people I would want to hang out with, even if they also happen to be trans. Pride is about pride: own your weirdness.

  • That's some slimy ass wording.

    Snowflake's position is that the customers fucked up and didn't secure their shit correctly.

    Then TicketMaster says the unauthorized access happened on something "hosted by a third party" as if it's Snowflake's fault LMAO

  • Am I old now?

  • My home and car have app/code based keys. The only key I have is for mail but there's no point in taking that out the house. So I don't have any keys at all. Going from three to two things in my pockets was a game changer.

  • I always vote. But I vote for who I want to win. Biden's entire campaign, every single fucking email I get from him, mentions Trump. It's like he has no identity outside of him, which I know isn't true because he has done stuff.

    We thought it wouldn't get worse after Bush, but it did. They're always gonna toss up a shittier and shittier candidate and setting a low bar for the Left. We should primary the incumbent every fucking term no matter how well they performed in their first term.
