Friendly reminder that under Obama internet service providers we were classified as utilities under Title II of the Communications Act of 1934.
Trump appointed Shit Pie, who reversed that rule as well as the net neutrality rule.
People, if you haven’t already, please vote.
We all have those words that drive us crazy. Mine is when people pronounce associate as asso-SHE-ate.
It’s petty. Like really, really petty. But for some reason it grates on my nerves.
Also there’s an Reddit, user named random_commas or something like that. They leave legitimately good comments but with a few, extra commas in places that really fuck up the flow while reading. It gets me every single, time! I get all frazzled until I notice, the username and realize i’ve been had. Respect to that, person for having such a harmlessly evil schtick.
Men definitely use fashion to demonstrate opulence. The range of available styles is far more limited than what women get, but there’s still plenty of variation in that range to send social signals of one’s wealth. In fact it creates a more apples-to-apples point of comparison. I can’t personally look at two dresses and know which one costs more, but I can easily spot the expensive suit.
And don’t forget that sometimes casual clothing can be used as a status symbol too. In a conference room full of Armani suits, it’s not unheard of for the 26 year old at the head of the table wearing a hoodie and chucks to be the one calling the shots.
By that logic every company would just run on linux. Free to use ≠ free to implement and support.
Who could you even trust to send the drive to? Anyone who could read it could take the money and just claim it couldn’t be recovered.
Ransom is underrated IMO.
Plus, you aren’t disconnecting a person, but a whole family or business.
And since many areas in the US only have one provider, you force that family to cancel all streaming services they might have. It’s a lose-lose-lose situation.
NRA stickers are probably way more effective.
Why do people downvote others who are just asking questions? I’ll never understand the mindset. You ask an honest and genuine question and people just downvote it for no reason. I don’t get it.
I have to admit you got me with that first sentence.
