I don't really understand reddit's angle here... Why would they provide zero cost API access to an app, as long as the developer of the app isn't making a profit? Are they trying to act like that was the issue they had with these third party apps? That they e profitable?

How does it make sense for them to allow an app for that reason?

Tankies make us all look bad

And who are they going to have take over mod responsibilities (for free) in all of these communities at once? This is why mods need to call their bluff and force them to try to replace them.

Was bound to happen when average people started creating cults of personality around billionaires.

Unfortunately, she's dead which means she will never even have the capacity to understand what her decision meant.

You got paid, because it’s required by law that you do.

That's not true. Maybe it varies from state to state, I dunno, but I live in an otherwise very blue state, and there's no statute on the books saying that a private employer must pay for time missed for jury duty.

They are required to allow you to go if you're summoned, but beyond that, it's their choice. Obviously, most (if not all) choose not to.

Nah, horseshoe theory is bullshit. Militant far left, and militant far right are shitty for very different reasons.

Lol @ "he thought it was a worker's plot."

Capitalists are the fucking worst.

I don't know, I like Sotomayor. And Brown-Jackson seems alright. And I really don't have much opinion on Kagan aside from the fact that I usually agree with her rulings. As for Conservatives, I disagree with all of them almost always, but Gorsuch at least seems to care about consistency, and I think his views on Native affairs is admirable.

I think there is no evidence that corporations are going to do what you all say they're going to do

My friend, learn some history.

I try to, then someone says some shit that I couldn't understand and I get pissed off and angrily turn them on. I've been making a point (in games and in TV/movies) to try to keep my eyes on the top half of the screen while people talk, only glancing down at the words if someone says something I didn't catch.

It's a hard habit to break.

This is like when fast food places ask if you want to round your order up to the next dollar to donate to x cause.

Like, no, Taco Bell, I don't want to pay you so you can turn around and get credit (both in terms of laundering their image, and for tax purposes) for my donation.

I'm pretty sure these employees weren't being forced to attend. So it would be more like you getting pissed off because some of your fellow employees decided to organize a get together at a bar to watch the World Cup. And, because you don't like soccer, you decide nobody should be able to attend.

Before they know it, they'll find themselves in a sea of shit content and ads, and realize what they lost.

If you are getting this upset and offended by "Peaches Christ..." By those words. By a silly pseudonym of a performer... Maybe it's time to reevaluate your life, and what you consider important.

Are you also offended by the title "Jesus Christ Superstar"?

None of this was happening at work, but if you keep pretending that you don't know that, you can probably get some other ignorant people pissed off about it too

The beauty of this fediverse thing is, that... if you don't like it you can make your own instance and do the thing you want there instead. Bye.

This wasn't at the workplace, it was going to be at a bar.

Oof, bad take city

I got called up once and was picked for a case... It was dope. Luckily, it was during break when I was in college, so I didn't miss any (real) work. And it was only for maybe four days. And it was for a pretty boring insurance fraud case...

But it was still super interesting. Really cool experience.
