Anti-foreign ownership of domestic resources. Not anti-foreigner.
Otherwise yes.

Got asked current salary, when I'm in CA and that is no longer legal. How can I report?
https://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/california_equal_pay_act.htm
This FAQ for the law in question has a link for complaints. It's an equal pay act violation.
Where and when can a person file a claim if they were aggrieved by a violation of Labor Code Section 432.3?
The person may file a complaint with the Labor Commissioner’s Office, the state agency charged with enforcement. A written complaint must be filed within one year after the date the person learned of the violation.

If you use the manual door release in Teslas it can apparently damage the trim when you close the door again. Wonderfully designed cars.

Yeah, gay people are just people like everyone else. There are just as many brain dead people as any other group.

To be fair the statement was written after conviction. They knew and did it anyway in an attempt to help him get a lighter sentence.

Unity to Cap Runtime Fee to 4% of Revenue Over $1M, Users Will Self-Report Figures
Still trying to shoehorn in a "runtime fee". That's not going to work and with this model it's pointless anyway. Just make it a 4% revenue for sales after $1 million. Same end results (actually potentially more in fees) without all the runtime issues. Make it apply only to a specific version and later and after a certain date and then you also don't have the retroactive problem and the massive blowback.

Mishaal Rahman: ASUS is NOT killing off bootloader unlocking for its phones
ASUS killed off bootloader unlocking back in May and has yet to fix that. If you try right now, you cannot unlock your ASUS phone. They may fix that in the future and are saying that's the case but as of right now, you can't.

X sues Calif. to avoid revealing how it makes “controversial” content decisions
Reply in thread
I’m suing them for defamation for saying that
Not actually suing, that would require discovery which would lead to losing and more importantly forcing them to disclose their moderation policies. It's just an empty threat to sue so nazi sympathizers can point to it and "see they don't allow nazi's."

Why Was This 11-Year-Old Brownsville ISD Honor Student Put in Solitary For Three Days?
Reply in thread
You seem to be reading things into comments that aren't there. Texas is a shithole because of the government running the State, not the people suffering through it.
I'm failing to see where anyone is blaming them for the shit their republican government is doing.

‘That ’70s Show' actor Danny Masterson gets 30 years to life in prison for rapes of 2 women
Reply in thread
Criminal vs civil trial due to the statute of limitations. Trump could not be criminally charged as the crime happened too long ago. The law limiting the time was changed in 2006 but that can't be retroactively applied.
The problem is that many alleged victims of sexual assault, like Carroll, cannot avail themselves of the criminal justice system. At the time when Carroll alleges Trump raped her, the statute of limitations for rape in the state of New York was five years. In 2006, New York changed the law and abolished the statute of limitations for certain types of assault, but that change does not apply retroactively to crimes committed before 2006.

Adjusted for inflation comparing interest paid for 30 year fixed:
Loan Amount: $185,457 @ 16% - Interest Paid: $720,306 and Total Cost: $905,763
Loan Amount: $416,000 @ 7% - Interest Paid: $580,923 and Total Cost: $996,923
That's closer than I thought actually.
