Ugh. I do like the idea of defederating in theory, but this is the third time I’m going to have move instances because something I want access to is blocked.
Is this just a ‘me’ problem or something everyone has to deal with from time to time?

Exactly this. That’s why groceries have dropped in price the last decade as cashiers are replaced by automated self checkouts. /s
Because my labor creates their super wealth, and because they’re destroying the planet to maintain it.
The vanishingly small amount of people that will be unfathomably rich in a privatized post-scarcity economy will give us just enough in UBI to make sure we can buy our Mountain Dew verification cans. And without the ability to withhold our labor as a class, we’ll have no peaceful avenue to improve our conditions.
I know. I’d assume everyone on Lemmy knows. That’s why I said ‘free’ in scare quotes and not free.
Anecdotal, but a friend of mine was ticketed for it within the first week it went into effect. She (understandably) assumed that being stopped at a stop light was acceptable. That said, I’m not aware of any enforcement since then and wouldn’t be surprised if they deliberately only enforced it right after it took effect.
Still wouldn’t risk it, though.
In Virginia, at least, it’s not a meaningful distinction.
There used to be an exception for GPS, but the state changed the law a few years ago so that any non-hands-free use of a phone in a non-parked is a ticketable offense. Swiping away an ad at a red light would technically be illegal.
I’ve been getting a lot of ‘suggested’ locations and sponsored pop ups in Google Maps the few weeks. I get that it’s a ‘free’ product, but ugh. My GPS while I’m driving down the highway is one of those things that really, really needs to be clutter-free.
Nothing is stopping him from Officially Acting on six Supreme Court Justice literally right now.
Wanting a President that can string two coherent sentences together doesn’t make you a Russian bot.
I haven’t noticed it, personally. Most of the unchecked disinformation mostly seems to be confined to the World News subreddit. There isn’t much hasbara in the fediverse from what I can tell.
For fucks sake, the 1968 DNC protests are what popularized the term ‘police riot.’
Of course the sentence is relevant. I’m not sure why I should bother writing a reply to you when you apparently stop reading them after the first word. Have a good day.
I recommend you read the second sentence that you declined to quote.
So the months of coordinated efforts to by activists to disrupt Democratic meetings, harass Democratic politicians, chant genocide Joe, vote uncommitted in primaries, block traffic, support BDS efforts etc. was actually an effective method of protest that had a small but meaningful effect in changing foreign policy?
The methods of protest the state wants us to think are successful and the methods that can actually succeed are usually not the same. Please take note.
Certainly not, but he definitely cares about the 100,000 people that voted uncommitted in Michigan and the littany of polls that show a majority of Democratic and young voters not supporting current US foreign policy.
No. It means enough people screaming genocide Joe loudly enough had a small but tangible impact on American foreign policy.
It’s not a coincidence. For instance there’s the GILEE program which is literally a Georgia to Israel police exchange/training program.
Biden is still the President? He can just Officially Act on House Republican leadership until he gets an answer he likes.
