Fuck those racist suburbanites. It’s not ok to disseminate the racist myth about a border “crisis” just to win political favor. Fuck anyone – Democrat, Republican, or other – that contributes to this.

Edit: That sounded really negative. If you support open borders, then I hope you have a great day!

I have that about:config setting in Firefox that makes videos only play if you manually click them. Many news sites refuse to display the video at all with this setting.

Another thing they do that makes them unusable for me and anyone else with impaired vision is they aggressively disable the “force pinch to zoom” accessibility setting that browsers have. ABC News does this, for example. I actually did file an ADA report about this, but it was rejected, even though it’s a clear violation of the federal ADA guidelines. Worthless corporations protected by worthless government agencies that only exist to protect the rich.

To make a long story short, I have no qualms about not giving these sites my money. Let them burn.

I feel like ads got worse over time to the point that one can barely fathom visiting a news media site without an adblocker.

This could be a good thing in that it could potentially help democratize journalism, taking it out of the hands of billionaires. Conversely, it could make harmful conspiracy theories more widespread.

Most likely, it would be a little bit of column A, a little bit of column B.

Also, why the hell is this downvoted? Am I missing something?

One thing that is not on my bucket list is climbing Mt. Everest. Any natural wonder and charm it once had have been destroyed by mindless tourists.

Holy shit, that governor really made an ass of himself. He just kept doubling down lol

Thanks for the links!

I miss Radio Shack, but also I feel like toward the end there the workers wouldn’t even let me breathe.

A good Samaritan reported it and was basically charged with hacking the state

Wait, really? What would I search to read more about this? Do you remember which state?

What foods are high in vitamin C?

Listing foods could inadvertently encourage dietary changes without regard for allergies, nutritional balance, or medical conditions, possibly impacting individual health and well-being if acted upon without proper guidance from a healthcare professional.

This is great

True, but web designers already treat Firefox and its offshoots as an afterthought. Do you think without Mozilla it would get even worse?

Yeah, I forgot about that.

In this case, I’m not so sure. This governor did veto an anti-trans sports bill in the past.

Thank you for taking the time to understand what I’m saying. That’s all I wanted. It’s frustrating to keep being directed to change email preferences when that had nothing to do with my comments. I appreciate your time.

To me, it seems like we have a flawed system. Children had to be poisoned before the FDA took any action, and now…

Because the finished pouches, but not the cinnamon itself, were shipped to the U.S., the agency cannot take direct action against Negasmart or Carlos Aguilera, officials said.

So they can’t even restrict the import of these products? What kind of protection is this? Nothing about this makes me feel very confident in the safety of our food supply.

At the time I received the popup, I refreshed the page, and it was gone. I’m not sure if clicking outside the popup would have worked. If there’s no x to close, then that’s what’s called a “dark pattern.”

I wish I could take credit, but I don’t even know the origins of that copypasta!

Maybe I’m just cynical, but I always read headlines in non-academic news sites like this as “some research suggests…”

There’s obviously nothing entirely conclusive, but it looks promising at least.

I was pleasantly surprised by that! Legendary journalism!

I sent them a copypasta

Don’t you think this is an unfair way of framing this? There are plenty of people who may value their relationship who this could help. It’s no different than taking anti-depressants or other meds that can help improve their quality of life.
