As much as they want to “pwn the libtards”, they just can’t afford to.

Fine, but self-awareness comes in stages. Learning to recognize that others are scamming them is an easier step than recognizing that they’re scummy.

Someone is “thirsty” for sex. A woman (or a broad approximation there of) exploits that thirst, hence “trap”.
The “woman” is the thirst trap. Woman is in quotes, because it’s almost always not a woman, but a bot, or one of many accounts run by scammers.

I take solace in this is the top comment, at least.
It’s frightening that many people are fine with this sort of invasion of privacy as long as the reason is “good enough”. This is a knee-jerk, uneducated response that only makes sense to the ignorant. I also expect they’re young, and spent more time looking at their phone than paying attention in class.

Houston was a good place for that, though.

Because the filthy rich can do literally anything they want, and there’s no one waiting to stop them.
If learning that recently surprised you, you’re not alone.
The only reason Madoff went to prison is because he stole from rich people.

Y’all need to go read /r/teachers to learn what a scourge phones in classrooms are. The teachers are begging for an outright ban.

They’re the “good guys” until their power is slightly threatened.
I don’t regret my donations, because though this was predictable, I suppose, it hadn’t happened yet. It’s like the people who bought Teslas before the big reveal that Musk is a Nazi. Maybe we all should have seen it coming, but it’s hard to blame anyone for missing it.

Started as a good idea to regulate industry for the benefit of consumers. Ends up with so many paid-for loopholes it’s mostly useless.
The cynic in me thinks the only reason the law was created from the start was to extort money from big companies.
Because they were paid a lot of money to exclude certain products.

I think he’s just incompetent at running such a large company. He got lucky with Facebook, and that success masked his incompetence. Now that the landscape is shifting, his incompetence is becoming apparent. He dove head-first into the so-called metaverse and even renamed his company for it. That was a bad bet. Now he’s followed the rest of the idiots into AI, and isn’t handling it as well as them. Doesn’t matter, the whole thing will come crashing down. Apple is the only major tech company that held back and that’s looking like the right move, now.
It will be interesting to see who is left standing in a couple of years. Well Meta shrink back to only Facebook, or will the damage be too great and the whole company dissolves. With Mark at the helm, I’m betting the latter.

I got banned for saying If you see a Nazi, punch a Nazi, as a play on If you see something, say something.
Reddit protects Nazis, but not the First Amendment.

I agree. Leave them at home. The safety argument is bullshit.

If not for the snow and hills, I could get by on an electric bike for 95% of my needs.
But, I’m getting old, so not for much longer.
