In much the same way that Confederate memorabilia is collectable.

As in, “You should avoid anyone who collects this shit. They’re probably a white nationalist.”

Nah, it’s just changed from

Harvard isn’t a person.

According to Citizens United it doesn’t matter. Part of that ruling held that both individuals and associations of individuals have a free-speech rights. Or to put it another way, you as a person have a right to free speech, and the right doesn’t go away just because you choose to associate with other persons.

So Harvard has a right to free speech, because the individuals who make up “Harvard” have that right.

Phenylephrine is back on the menu, boys!

Because, frustratingly enough, he hasn’t actually been convicted yet.

Counterpoint: the fact that the moral “don’t kill the goose that lays the golden eggs” even exists is proof that people are indeed greedy and/or stupid enough to do that very thing.

Oh, I see.

You think this is a “politicians don’t understand the tech they’re supposed to regulate” issue, and not a “Elon Musk is bribing every greedy asshole in Congress to prop up his businesses at taxpayer expense” issue.

Twenty-one offenses? Come on, Andrew Taint is more offensive than that!

And sports:

Disney’s 0.2 point gain over March was partly driven by cross-network coverage of the NFL Draft, the NCAA Women’s Basketball Championship and the first round of the NBA Playoffs.

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but Americans are real good at ignoring issues that don’t affect them personally.

Oh I won’t wreck my car, I’m a “good driver”!

I can’t catch Covid because it’s not real!

School shootings are just false flags the government uses to pass gun control laws!

Donald Trump only wants to remove the dangerous immigrants, not the ones I hire for my business!

Thing is, this isn’t a “gotcha” to them. Their default assumption is “American = more qualified than anyone else” because they’re goddamn ignorant racists.

No one who is not American will ever be qualified in their eyes.

Yeah, that’s not a deal. That’s capitulation.

The point of RCV isn’t to ensure your chosen candidate wins; it’s to ensure that whoever does win has at least some amount of approval from the majority of voters.

It does still have flaws, but it’s still far superior to the current system the US uses.

I did say I use Firefox. I was asking those who don’t.

Yes, I already do.

I asked because I don’t know if anyone who does use a Chromium browser has noticed an uptick in ads.

Last I checked Alphabet had something like $60 billion in profit.

At this point, they probably consider YouTube to be a loss leader while they siphon up everyone’s data.

I use Firefox. Is Ublock Origin still effective on YouTube since Google shoved out Manifest V3 onto Chromium-based browsers?

It takes at least a month to ship things from China to the US. I’ve got a post in my history going over the math.

If the ports are empty now, that means ships stopped sailing a month ago. If they sail today, they’ll be here mid to late June. If none have sailed in-between, it’s going to be a while before any do. And I’m not sure any ships will be sailing soon because no deals have been reached.

Lots of companies bought extra supply in the months leading up to Lie-beration Day, so they can hold for a bit. The only question is how long will they, compared to how long Chinese shipping will resume?

And yet, if they ever did release it, you can bet all three companies would C&D it.

I had no idea hard disks came ribbed for her pleasure.
