71·6 days agoI think American Horror Story would be a good Western example. I watched each season until the first episode of Hotel. It contained a scene of sexual violence brutal enough for me and my significant other to agree to quit the show. While discussing it we realized ALL seasons contained episodes featuring sexual violence.
What’s all this about having to accept NEW TOS for Borderlands 2. I purchased the game five years ago, but if I want to play today i have to accept a greater loss of privacy!
When I was young you would find out about a video game from the movies! And they were complete! Any you couldn’t take the servers offline, because they didn’t exist!
But for real, fuck Randy Pitchford
81·15 days agoThat asked about their phone SPYING on them. So I’m taking this at face value and assuming more than just targeted advertising.
Block all the IPs you want, you can’t block a Stingray

Then you could also have mesh network built into devices inside your WiFi connecting to similar devices.
And my favorite for right now, and the thing I finished my last response with, your phone.
Your phone is most likely unique, between the device id, your carrier, location, other apps, contacts, operating system, etc. I personally assume most large websites could find you in minutes.
Both your TV and phone hooked to the same WiFi?
Shazamm like program for detection of TV audio.
If the phone is not moving (known by phone) the TV and your voice could be differentiable.
You’re voice is within a certain range of Hz
Most important: it doesn’t need to. Just the stuff you do on your phone is probably more than enough data
8·18 days agoBut wait, there’s more: May I present, America’s only successful coup d‘état.
He’s a Democrat, but this is not a simple situation.
Judge rules someone ineligible, mayor disagree
Sheriff’s show up to candidates house, possible intimidation
Haven’t read much else yet
Just snuck that right in there
One aerial imaging technology company common among insurers says it has eyes on 99.6% of the country’s population.

I see a reference to Airheads, I upvote! Thanks for reminding me of this gem.
That’s one of the dumbest things, it’s easier to build an Air Force One from scratch than to retrofit. At a dead minimum your paying extra to take it apart.
Think of it like The Beast https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidential_state_car_(United_States)
That’s not an updated Cadillac, it’s a tank with a Cadillac wrap.
Well I don’t doubt tariffs and inflation are having an effect here. Let’s not forget Target abandoned their DEI goals and programs.
Costco did not, they doubled down. There quarterly earnings will be reported on the 29th of May.
No suppressor, no super long mags, no belt feed, no barrel mounted grenade launcher, no incendiary rounds.
What is and what is not legal is funny in the US
The history on this is interesting
Trump banned bump stocks as a reaction to the Vegas massacre.
Then the supreme court ruled that unconstitutional.
https://www.npr.org/2024/06/14/g-s1-2929/supreme-court-bump-stocks
Now the trump admin is going to permit more things like the bump stock to be sold legally. Specifically, something that makes a semi automatic gun fire much more rapidly.
The United States will have to pay more interest to borrow money.
Think of it like credit scores, the US is making sketchy monetary decisions, so the score went down.
51·1 month ago“Further investigation has revealed that Ms Backeberg’s disappearance was by her own choice and not the result of any criminal activity or foul play,” the sheriff’s office said.
Around the time of her disappearance, Backeberg had filed a criminal complaint against her husband, alleging that he beat her and threatened to kill her, the BBC reports, citing the Wisconsin Missing Persons Advocacy non-profit group.
This is from the 9th. Two days ago.
Not to disrespect (I’m assuming) your fledgling news site. Is flyemu.com a trusted news source here? Also this is a repost.
A Declaration of the Immediate Causes which Induce and Justify the Secession of the State of Mississippi from the Federal Union.
In the momentous step which our State has taken of dissolving its connection with the government of which we so long formed a part, it is but just that we should declare the prominent reasons which have induced our course.
Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery-- the greatest material interest of the world. Its labor supplies the product which constitutes by far the largest and most important portions of commerce of the earth. These products are peculiar to the climate verging on the tropical regions, and by an imperious law of nature, none but the black race can bear exposure to the tropical sun. These products have become necessities of the world, and a blow at slavery is a blow at commerce and civilization. That blow has been long aimed at the institution, and was at the point of reaching its consummation. There was no choice left us but submission to the mandates of abolition, or a dissolution of the Union, whose principles had been subverted to work out our ruin.
This is already bad because it’s a Library and these people hate those things, but also…
It also administers copyright law through the United States Copyright Office.
