I get emails from school, with a link that opens a 3rd party app, which only displays a link that opens in the default browser. I've asked the school to just send me direct links to the announcements, but they say they can't. The site doesn't require authentication, but the URLs have UUIDs so I can't just guess what the link would be. The app is quite literally just a data exfiltration layer that does everything it can to make sure you can't bypass it. Good luck getting any other parents to give a shit though.

...we cannot allow actions that deliberately cause harm

Seems like that's about the only actions Reddit execs have taken over the last several years. Glad I left when I did.

What's a lemon party? I should Google it.

I've gotten some surprisingly long lasting gems there, but you can never be sure. Like you said, I've also gotten a number "single use" tools from Harbor Freight. Overall though, it's almost always been worth it.

I find the Jellyfin UX to be unbearable. It frequently shows the metadata for completely different movies, despite perfect file naming. Nearly every time I use it I have to restart it due to some weird UI bug or another.

Anything important, I write on clay tablets.

No thanks, I filled up on Dogecoin before dinner.

~~Or both!~~

edit: My enthusiasm was well meant but misplaced. On further consideration, I don't want government to control social media.

And it wouldn't matter if they did. Such contracts are not legal in the US. In fact, employers can be fined simply for requesting an employee sign a contract that restricts their right to discuss salary.
