They've been doing stuff like this non-stop since he was elected. It just takes time, especially when you're trying to do things right instead of just breaking shit, plus there's tons of obstruction you need to deal with and many appointed positions last more than a term so you need to Wait for new positions to open up to get a majority on a lot of boards. If you want to make this argument the burden of proof is on you to check that they didn't have hurdles that prevented them from doing it sooner.

Yeah probably. How long until every site with user generate content starts banning texas?

So they'll stop injecting ads in the middle of videos at the worst possible times right?

Who the fuck uses comic sans for programming? I use comic mono.

You do have to be hard working to be CEO, there's just a ton of stuff that needs to be handled around a company at all times. But they are not uniquely smarter or have better decision making skills than other people. A good CEO will understand that they don't know everything and surround themselves with experts to help them with decision making instead of thinking they know better.

That's not to say that workers aren't necessarily equally as hard working, especially when your asshole CEO fires a ton of your coworkers and expects you to pick up the slack.

Sunlight too is incredibly important for mood

Reinstate? Both are still allowed in many Republican states and Republicans have been blocking any attempt to stop it.

The FTC’s three Democratic members were in favor of adopting the regulation, while its two Republican members were against it.

Not surprising in the least. Of all the Republican hypocrisy their attitude towards workers using their value to increase their earnings is one of the worst. They claim that they support self reliance and building yourself up, but stuff like this shows that it's clearly a lie. They support businesses maximizing their earnings by charging what the market will bear, but as soon as a worker tries to do the exact same thing they lose their God damn minds.

Hehe. Number equal number. I smart.

Diode emitting lights?

Thing is anyone health conscious already knows that you can have good nutrition with a vegan diet. Anyone generalizing veganism as having bad nutrition without looking at the specifics of what someone is eating has no idea what they're talking about and probably don't have good nutrition themselves if they're that uninformed

I think it would be too big of a privacy overreach to try to ban it outright as I think what people do on their own computers is their own business and there's no way to enforce a full ban without being incredibly intrusive, but as soon as it gets distributed in any way I think it should be prosecuted as heavily as real non consensual porn that was taken against someone's will.

so what exactly are they doing wrong besides providing service to potentially questionable companies?

Well I think that is the main point of what is wrong. I think the big question is whether the mature content toggle is on by default or not. The company says it's off, but some users said otherwise. Dunno why the author didn't install it and check.

Don't just think about the position of president. Think about the thousands of appointments they make. It's not voting for 1 position, it's voting for an entire branch of government, potentially 2. Whatever you think about them, remember that it's gonna be either Biden or Trump appointing all those positions, so even if you hate both of them equally, add up all the incredibly powerful positions they appoint and compare the sum of it all. It's a compounding magnitude, so I cannot imagine how anyone can not have a preference when you are considering the full reach and impact that the 1 position has. Supreme court justices, federal judges, agency and department heads, countless secretaries, regulatory board heads, ambassadors and more and more, plus all the influence on positions those appointees have below them.

I want to repeat this as much as possible because I think it's incredibly important. When you vote for a president, you are not voting for one person, you are voting for thousands. You are voting for an entire branch of government, possibly 2. The president appoints an insane amount of positions, so when you vote for the one person you need to also think about all the other positions they will be nominating people for. Hundreds of federal judges, hundreds of secretaries, dozens of heads of departments and agencies, hundreds of ambassadors, and most importantly, potentially lifetime appointments of Supreme court judges, which can flip an entire other branch of government. There are also tons of lower level positions on top of those, and if that's not enough already, many of these appointments span multiple presidencies, so you're not just voting for the next 4 years, but potentially long after that.

So when you're looking at the ballot, do not think about the names on the paper, think about the thousands of incredibly important, powerful, and influential roles that they will fill. As powerful as the president is, when you add up all those other positions, they are even more important than the one position of president.

To be fair, lots of companies specifically point out ergonomics and give out onboarding materials with suggestions on exercises to do and office setup best practices.

Awareness is important, and most office jobs already raise awareness about it. I think the only time I've seen it in video games were those take a break reminders I've seen in some Nintendo games.

It's not an nft, it has to be hexagonal to be an nft

Damn it, all those stupid hacking scenes in CSI and stuff are going to be accurate soon

Remember pog? It's back!

At least I got chicken
