Garbage. It doesn’t punish them, hold them accountable, or force them to improve their security practices.
Every breach like this should automatically require a $100 cheque to every affected account holder. Two nillion accounts compromised? $200M is a real consequence.
Mandarin orange slices.
Seriously?
Phone the cops. Now.
Even better, don’t use Twitter at all and don’t support its insane fascist asshole billionaire owner.
Seriously, why even continue talk8ng about twitter? Let it die.
I’d qualify that as for-profit mandatory insurance.
Canpt get a mortgage without home insurance. Canpt drive a vehicle without at least liability. Those rates should be strictly government regulated to be sustainable and non-profit.
But if you want to insure your collection if priceless Whitworth wrenches, well maybe I care a bit (Just a bit!) less about insurance gouging.
Trophy hunting, after all this time, is still legal and big business.
I read it as an anti-circumcision post. You ckuld be right, though.
Canada passed ‘rational servings’ laws a few years ago to this exact end. No more cases where a single-portion package would contain 1.6 servings, or whatnot.
For-profit healthcare.
That sounds like a dream. Last place I worked aa an employee, we got “col” 9which was actually less than 1/3 the government-declared col) plus as much as 1.1% merit increase.
Typical raise for a high performer was around 2%.
I’ve been playing Shattered Pixel Dungeon, which is an actual roguelike game.
Egg Inc is angrowth game that’s silly and fun. Squad Alpha is a great casual shooter, and all ads are voluntary. (Note, this is NOT Alpha Squad.)
PfFt. Amateur level stuff!
Try this on for size:

And that’s not the limit, either.
Gas for the motorcycle, and ride. Maybe $10 for gas and $5 for a coffee somewhere.
Morrowind was bundled with a video card I got, and thought I’d at least try it. I had no idea what it was or how it worked, and I fell headfirst into it. WEEKS thrown at it, and I never got bored.
After that, Oblivion was a letdown for me and I didn’t get very far into it. Skyrim was great fun, but the lore was clearly secondary. (I eventually went back to Oblivion and found it a better story than Skyrim, but Morrowind is still the best.)
In no order…
And some bonus games to add to the mix, because there are too many amazing games in the world.
EDIT Also
I fought with Broadcom’s shitty website for hours, but finally have Workstation Pro, in which I will test my workflows in Linux.
Games and Lightroom will be a challenge, but I’m going to avoid Win11 at all costs.
How is this not fraud?
It’s a simple question. They are deliberately misleading and lying to customers for unlawful corporate gain.
Teams doesn’t work in the first place.
Time for a lawsuit.
Since the presence of a TV in your house is a commercial benefit for the companies who make them, AND you do not actually have control over them, it is clear that the ‘sales contract’ was fraudulent and part of a bad-faith act on the manufacturers’ part.
So I say a class-action lawsuit is in order: Each person who bought (say) an LG TV gets back 100% of their purchase price, plus some reimbursement for being spied on - probably a per-month amount. Then LG has to pay a punitive fee on top of their payouts to customers.
I know that everyone is screaming “that will never work!” and “They’ll go bankrupt!” I don’t care - SOMETHING has to change to remind these evil fuckers that they need our business, or the abuse will just ramp up.
Bankrupt them all. Tear down the entire industry. Tear down the entire economy and start again from scratch if that’s what it takes.
If they can’t be reined in legally, then it will happen illegally - and probably violently.
