They care about companies they have less control over and a foreign adversary has more control over invading privacy, for reasons unrelated to seeing privacy as a good in itself.

Because I have no idea and I want some all dressed chips, lol.
Aldi periodically stocks them as an Aldi Find. Probably the closest thing readily available in the US is Zapp’s Voodoo - it’s not the same, but it scratches the same sort of itch.
Fucking autocorrect? sigh Fixing it…
I could almost buy that given my feelings about the mental capacity of the poster child for failing upwards, but why would he think specifically Haitian immigrants are lesbians? You know, as opposed to “liberals” or “college girls” (to quote the terrible song from that episode of Bill Nye - did you learn gay in college?) or something…
Trump will likely get away with telling his followers to storm the capitol
Because he didn’t. He very carefully didn’t. And 1A protections are extremely broad and extremely strong. Pretty much anything short of “You guys, go storm the capitol right now and overturn the election!” is going to be protected speech, and he didn’t say that. He carefully avoided saying that, intentionally.
What they’ll get him on as far as the attack (if anything) will be if he was involved in planning and staging it on the back end - if for example he was coordinating with people who were directly instrumental in shifting it from a protest at the steps of the capitol to an attack on the capitol in the hours, days, or weeks beforehand. Because his speech was definitely 1A protected.
Agreed that he likely does not have a 1st amendment defense.
He likely does. Pretty much anything short of directly inciting an immediate panic or imminent lawless action is protected.
Yelling “Fire!” in a crowded venue is not protected under Free Speech.
I know that’s the famous example, but you’re actually wrong. It’s only not protected if there’s no fire, the person yelling it believes there is no fire, and the person yelling it is doing so to cause a panic or imminent lawless action. Speech protections in the US are extremely broad, and most of the exact lines and contours have been defined in court, often in cases involving the ACLU, the KK, or both (specifically in the form of the ACLU defending the KKK, which is where many of the lines as regards protests were determined).
I would believe a “house arrest” at Maralago.
I would too, unless Congress revokes his Secret Service detail. Secret Service protection is what makes imprisoning him difficult, it’s either house arrest or they rededicate an entire prison wing to just him.
I wouldn’t let him pick his security and restrict his visitors though. And absolutely no internet or social media. It’s supposed to be a punishment, after all.
Because English is a Germanic language that has half of it’s vocabulary as borrowed words from a Romance language (French) that then got chewed up and mangled for a few centuries.
Not like Gaelic, which has to own the fact that most of it’s words are pronounced in the least sensible way one might think that series of letters is said.
I mean all child mortality stats are shitty, because they’re about kids dying.
But the short version of it is that the largest segment of kids dying to guns is them being accidentally shot in the same demographics whose adults make up the largest slice of shooting homicides (in both perps and victims) - minority (especially black) inner city communities.
The reasons are likely related - if you’re in a demographic where you’re more likely to shoot or be shot you’re more likely to have a gun around that’s not well secured, which means you’re more likely to have accidental shootings too.
To be fair, she probably gets weirdos with variants of “have my babies” more often than you’d think, just not usually from billionaires who own social media companies.
He couldn’t talk about his plan, because then someone might look it up in Project 2025 and ask some…unfortunate questions about why all his plans look like that document he once described as a detailed plan for “our movement” but has definitely never read and knows nothing about.
…if fresh. Vitamin C is relatively fragile.
The only times I’ve had it be remotely helpful is when you want something specific that’s going to appear near the top of search results and is also likely to be buried in a bunch of irrelevant faff. Which is to say that occasionally “search for X and summarize the top result” is a useful tool but not often enough for them to front and center it like they do.
For example recipes. You can’t copyright a recipe, so recipes tend to be buried in a lot of crap that isn’t the actual recipe.
I mean, that’s because googles AI over view is designed to summarize search results on a topic. On one hand that reduces the degree to which it will simply hallucinate, on the other sometimes the top search result is already as concise as it can be at the target grade level of writing.
“Yeah but my friends use Messenger!”
My mom uses Messenger. Acts like texting is too hard for her but Facebook Messenger isn’t. Literally the only reason I have it installed on my phone, because otherwise I don’t get the message when she needs something. If I could pry her away from it I could finally be done with the thing forever.
Even then, you have local voice recognition. You don’t need to stream all microphone recordings to some central server for processing, you just do voice recognition and keep a log of say the last 100 nouns and a high priority log for the last twenty nouns used near verbs like purchase, buy or get. Then send those lists to the ad provider as context. All the hard work is done on the client device and the same backend used for ad context on web pages can be used for this as well.
See, that’s fine the first time it happens. But after a couple of iterations you should have enough experimental data to know the answer that means you don’t have to sleep on the couch.
That doesn’t really work either, see pre release coverage for Deliverance: Kingdom Come and aside from a few articles during early crowdfunding about how they were naughty bad people for not having black people in a game set in a few square kilometers of 15th century Bohemia and having a “female character DLC” (the game has a fixed protagonist and the DLC lets you play from the perspective of another character, framed as her telling the MC about how she managed to escape the attack on their village). After the articles about them being racist and sexist for that, there was basically radio silence until it launched and was too big a deal to ignore.
David Berkowitz. He claimed that in court, and later retracted the statement. Sonny from the Venture Bros parody of the Scooby Gang is also a reference to him.
