Upcoming IPO. Announce product is too powerful to release. No connection whatsoever.

This all feels so archaic. Does anyone actually care about either of these sites anymore?

It’s called “term limits” and it’s a good thing.

This data is from the Biden administration, predating the current Trump policies.
I’m in desperate need of a phone. My current phone has a very cracked screen and I can’t afford a replacement.
It’s true, evangelical voters are notorious for their low turnout. Just look it up.
I honestly can’t tell if you’re talking about Hunter Biden’s laptop, which many leaders of the intelligence community claimed was fake Russian disinfo, only to be recently admitted into court evidence as being real and factual. Who exerted pressure on those officials to lie to the public before the last presidential election?

…And how quickly you get to praising Stalin. Wow.

“They had time” is such an amusing, and inaccurate, assertion. Toil was a very real, everyday thing. The only way to avoid toil was to be on one’s deathbed.
It would be useful if more people could look at this from the driver’s perspective (in a nonjudgmental way). Most drivers I know are well aware of the costs associated with delivering but they do it anyway out of necessity. The job market isn’t great out there and I know many people, myself included, who’ve been job hunting for over a year. And delivering has been a decent fallback to make some ends meet. These fees are absolutely nuking a lot of potential deliveries and hurting drivers substantially.

Saying most scientists in the world are white males seems like a very Anglo-centric perspective, at least based on the numbers available from statista.com.

Those “bad outcomes” already existed pre encryption. If anything, it’ll be more of the same.

Think of it like how an orchestra conductor and musicians work together.

Safari used to have a Windows version but it was so underused Apple canned it.
FYI, after a DoorDash driver marks a delivery as complete they cannot see any new messages from that customer.

Coincidentally, Microsoft makes more money from Android than it does from Windows.
It’s a short-term car lease. Nothing new.
Although, NPR was created by an act of Congress, along with the CPB.
Seconding the great score.
This is how digital goods are “sold” (leased is more accurate), it isn’t an Amazon issue or an e-book issue. You’re leasing access to digital goods, not owning them. It’s much larger and broader than that. That’s why it’s always a good idea to download digital goods and keep them on your own device and not in the cloud on a retailer’s server.

I have not been to a modern supermarket in the U.S. that didn’t have self-checkout. Self-checkout is common.
