5, but echo that it needs some workshopping

Makes sense. Maybe they wouldn’t be understaffed if they were utilized in places that actually mattered to people

…well shit. Too smart to be an officer is a thing.

Cities in pretty much the entire country are running with an understaffed police force. They’ll take what they can get. I’m 100% pro Union, but another problem is that police unions help protect unfit (literally and figuratively) police from being forced to try harder by abusing protected status health claims. I’ve seen in both police and military, they are handed paperwork if they are not meeting fitness expectations, but nothing ever comes of it.

“You’re legally required to hire people…”

When you’re writing from the business’s perspective as “us”

I apologize as someone who fully thought you knew it was a protest and were just being a snarky ass opposed to their cause and sent you a down vote.

Confused Portlander here. Why are these bikers fully clothed?

I was excited for that movie, and I think yeah they nailed the atmosphere. Ended up not liking it at all, though

I never played d&d or any games of that style, and probably missed out on a bunch of the catered moments, but I still enjoyed it very much

My comment was meant to be informative to that end. I read (or maybe misread) your comment as implying that Americans are overreacting by calling him a Nazi, while I think it an apt comparison and that they are literally and intentionally using the Nazi playbook every step of the way.

He is rounding up people of a particular color using a paramilitary masked police force and without a trial sending them to a prison in another country that, for years, has been reported on as torturing and killing its prisoners

Many block only hexbear and lemmygrad because they are just propaganda machines. Mostly they were left unblocked until their users started to invade other instances to spread their blatant propaganda.

I think if it like an ad block. On lemm.ee, I blocked them both on my own anyway because I found them obnoxious.

If you go to the main page website of an instance and scroll all the way to the bottom, there should be an “instances” button that will tell you which instances are federated and which are blocked. I figure the default page is like lemme.ee/instances or sopuli.xyz/instances for example.

edit: I’ve upset the .ml Also, you’ll see most have chapo.chat is also on the blocked list because it is Hexbear when Hexbear lost their server or something

I don’t think they care if you’re real anymore

I always thought this was intentional. Apple TV doesn’t make them money, but it’s a gateway drug for you to completely move over to their ecosystem

What they should do is convince a smaller subsection of reddit users to break off to a new site, maybe entice them with promises of a FOSS platform. Maybe a handful of real people and all the rest LLM bots. They’ll never know

Back in I think 2016, Google announced that Nest thermostat owners would soon no longer have access to the Nest app because they were migrating to Google Home. Well that sack of shit app couldn’t perform half of the functions. Users complained, and we still have the Nest app that still has additional functionality to this day.

Just a Google story that came to my mind

So here’s my uneducated question: Don’t huge software companies like this usually do updates in “rollouts” to a small portion of users (companies) at a time?
