Bernie Sanders was the best-positioned potential third party candidate in probably the last 50-100 years. Why, then, didn’t Bernie run as a third party candidate? Because it’s not a viable strategy in the FPTP way we run elections here. He knew that it would be the worst option.

There isn’t a viable “other way”.

What socialist country has restaurants that give an itemized bill in English with USD for the currency?

And then you learn about Fextra’s embedded twitch player that artificially inflates their twitch view count and pushes out smaller content creators who are actually trying to engage with a game’s audience.

Basically self-diagnosed at 35 due to this. Therapist backed it up and agreed, but there isn’t really anything anyone is going to do with a 35 year old other than maybe give you some anti-anxiety medicine occasionally after hassling you about it.

Every Unity developer is under the same agreement. The changes were not announced to be “moving forward”. It’s a change to existing licenses to use Unity. For everyone. Everywhere.

I don’t know that licensing changes have been retroactive in the past. How do lawyers prevent companies from retroactively changing licensing? My guess would be to sue after the fact, which is probably why these developers are hinting that they’re going to suffer economic harm if Unity follows through with this. This statement may be their lawyers doing the work they’d normally do in this kind of circumstance.

That’s probably what she does with my mail when it arrives to her with the opinion of one of her constituents. Seems fair turnabout.

I’m just now learning about SimpleLogin. Something to look into when I don’t feel like I’ve just exited a 10 hour nightmare after work.

One of my Senators is Marsha Blackburn, whose photo is used in this cal to action. She will tell me that I’m stupid and should support the bill, and then I’ll be on her GD mailing list again (it is very difficult to get removed from that list).

…and my mind is stronger than a child’s…

It’s not though. It really, really isn’t.

Wait until people and brands start getting spammed with @s full of porn or CSAM and they can’t block the person tweeting it at them.

I believe you could use block to prevent other people’s shit from showing up in your feeds that other people see. My account is there, pointing at my mastadon account, but I deleted the app from my phone last December, so it doesn’t really matter to me what happens on that site. But, it seems wild that a person can spam your feed with goatse and you can’t do anything about it.

Kyle!

No. It changes the username to [deleted].

This is such a short-sighted take. My wife was prom queen… 3 years before I met her. I forgot about it completely until I read your post and thought, “what a childish thing to say, no one cares about that.” Why? Because I have 20 years of history with my wife. 2 children, a good job, a good life, and a happy family. Exactly 0% of that has anything to do with a prom that happened years before we met.

I want to live a long and happy life, and have as many days as possible with my wife, my children, and maybe their children (if they decide to have any). The things that worry me aren’t whether or not I’m having sex with a former prom queen, but how can I stay healthy so I can have a chance to make as many memories with the people I love as possible. It’s about whether or not they feel loved, accepted, and fulfilled. High school popularity has no value whatsoever to healthy, adjusted adults.

Couldn’t they prorate the hourly rate to account for the time that your actually assigned to an active delivery? That wouldn’t interfere with multi-apping, as a driver would be “on the clock” for their delivery time. It seems like the companies would be able to figure out how to do the right thing if they wanted to.
