Honestly, I'd take a woody window to replace the clear glass overlooking the scenic parking lot outside literally any of the apartments I've ever lived in.

Self checkouts tend to have a hand scanner too
I'm going to guess that this is regional or vendor specific, because I've literally never seen a self-checkout with a hand scanner. And if I ever did, I would expect it to transform into a broken, dangling cable within a few months.
Meanwhile, stores all but stop manning existing checkouts, forcing everyone to line up to check out their own stuff.
In business, all data are vanity metrics. If they make you look good, you slap that shit on everything; if they make you look bad, you "don't have it".
It's just that sometimes you can use negative data to make decisions that look good to those above you, and sometimes you know that you can't.
their value comes from them being relevant
The news's value should be to society, though, not shareholders?
He was "forced" to buy because he, uh, signed a contract saying he would. I'm sorry, but "voluntarily signed a purchase agreement" is only "forcing" if you believe people above a certain wealth level can do whatever the fuck they want with impunity.
He could have backed out and paid the fine he agreed to pay in the case he backed out, but he didn't want to do that, either.
He's not being investigated by someone else.
He can't win because he's a fucking idiot.
It’s litigation around what a machine can freely use in its learning model.
No, its not that, either. It's litigation around what resources a person can exploit to develop a product without paying for that right.
The machine is doing nothing wrong. It's not feeding itself.
You're asking two questions here. One is about some kind of purity test, which... You gotta let that one go. The crowd isn't here to pass judgement on you, and asking it to do so is a kind of psychological self harm.
The other is about whether using a particular Reddit front end supports Reddit. The answer to that is an unqualified "yes".
The two together point to you wanting to use Reddit, but not wanting to be judged poorly for doing so, and that's an anxiety state you don't deserve to live in. You either believe strongly enough about not supporting Reddit for your own reasons to not use it, or you don't. And that's ok, because they're your beliefs. You're not some soldier in some holy war.
This is Elon Musk erasure.
“Laid off” has always been a euphemism for “fired.”
Not in communities where seasonal labour is a significant part of the local economy. There, 'laid off' often comes with the implicit "temporary" modifier, while 'fired' does not. And while tech work is not usually seasonal employment, if you grew up in an area where seasonal employment is common, the distinction kind of stick with you.
And yet it still has a bunch of ads for PC+ littered throughout it. Despite being grandfathered in, I abandoned it earlier this year for Podcast Republic, which hasn't spammed me or locked me out of any features I've tried to play with despite not having paid them anything.
