  • I know forced sterilization is bad, but people that come up with opinions this psychotic...should not be allowed to procreate.

  • Yeah there's that, too. I work in the US for a company that won't let me hire anyone that isn't in India.

  • Well yea, why pay an American $200K/year at your San Francisco when you can import 2 H1B's for the same price working remotely from your "St. Louis, remote" office?

    /s, in case that isn't obvious.

  • Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wants to ban drug ads on TV. It wouldn’t be easy - West Hawaii Today

    Jump

  • Heh, he's crazy as all get-out, but I agree with getting drug ads away from the uneducated public. If an ad has to have "ask your doctor about", it shouldn't exist anywhere, not just TV.

    He just wants this one to de-educate people on the existence of drugs in general, but honestly, if you need to see a doctor to talk about them/get them, they don't need advertising in the first place. It does open up a bigger discussion on knowledge about the availability of pharmaceutical treatments, though, since some people probably ask their doctors about symptom treatment based on ads. It's purely reactive and the wrong way to take care of your health, but, I won't ignore the obviously systematic issues with access to affordable healthcare for proactive care, vs. "make this hurting stop" care.

  • The 3.5MM jack isn't coming back, but having USB-C adapters would be a good compromise. I don't see any major phone maker shipping them though, and you know Apple would charge $40 for it. Even Anker's is like $18, and they are the current "good, but not crazy expensive" accessory brand.

  • "move beyond buffer zone" is a weird phrase for "continues invasion".

  • Better tl:dr;

    GitHub announced a free version of its Copilot code completion tool, previously only available to students and open-source maintainers. The free plan, limited to 2,000 code completions per month, aims to expand Copilot’s reach and enable more developers worldwide. GitHub also announced reaching 150 million developers on its platform.

  • The "speedy trial" guarantee is for the defendant. If they want it slower, there is no guarantee the government has to "speed it up". That's his strategy on pretty much every lawsuit, delay as long as possible.

  • The movie actually incorporates the album very well. IIRC, that's on purpose (they intended to make the movie when mixing the album).

    Forget about using IP-blockers to protect yourself during P2P activities, use them to block ads and malware

    Jump

  • Seconded on NextDNS. It's like $20/year for the "pro" version (no monthly limits) and I honestly cannot recall the last time I saw an ad on any device I control. The sole exception is my Apple TV, where one of the apps I use has ads injected into the video, so, no way to block those.

    If advertisers truly cared about serving the customers they claim to care so much about, the ad networks would have better standards and more safeguards to prevent malware. I'd still block them, I just wouldn't feel the same level of pride in blocking them for both annoyance and safety factors.

  • You have to declare it to fly like that in the US, though. So either she did and TSA didn't care, it she didn't and they blundered.
