I wonder why women would be "more depressed and unhappy than they were four years ago", and "less optimistic and confident in the future than they were four years ago"? Might it possibly have something to do with what his women-hating appointees have done in the last four years? No, must be Biden's fault. /s

But remember, advertisers boycotting XTwitter is horrible and illegal and mean and against the First Amendment.

Apparently "recordable media" here means the kind you can record on at home, e.g. CD-R, DVD-R.

Here's the article; the link in the OP points to a discussion thread.

The chair ought to be questioning whether the company should continue to employ someone who needs that much "motivation", not urging shareholders to give it to him.

Maybe the news about the Windows client changing DNS settings was too much bad publicity?

A VPN would naturally route all your traffic through a secure tunnel, but you've still got to do DNS lookups somewhere. A lot of VPN services also come with a DNS service, and Google is no different. The problem is that Google's VPN app changes the Windows DNS settings of all network adapters to always use Google's DNS, whether the VPN is on or off. Even if you change them, Google's program will change them back.

Customers who go through self-checkout must use the device to scan their receipt's barcode — confirming that they paid something — which opens a metal gate, letting them leave.

How is that supposed to help at all in stopping theft? "Oh, you paid for something, you definitely aren't leaving with anything you didn't pay for." I can't see a way "organized crime" could possibly work around that. /s

At this point there are people in their forties who had access to online porn as minors. Have any actual studies been done to show that a significant portion of the many, many people who've grown up in the last 20-30 years have been harmed by having access to online porn while they were younger, or are these laws just something that's trendy at the moment?

PalWorld being number 2 is pretty impressive considering it only came out on the 19th. I suppose the huge number of players would make up for the relatively limited time.

They're also increasing the price of V-Bucks to try to get even more money out of Fortnite players.

A lot of states with those laws probably also have "Stand Your Ground" laws and loose guns regulations, so really nobody should go there.
