Non compliance with a police officer is not a capitol crime. Every cop who shoots an unarmed suspect should be fired at least and put on trial for murder.

You are thinking of trademark, which is protect-it-or-lose-it. You can be as capricious about enforcing copyright as you want. In this case both the copyright of the individual images is being violated as well as the trademark on the characters/ franchise.

I went into an AT&T store a few weeks ago to make some changes to my kids' phone service since I wanted to do something that the self-service account web app didn't support. The agent in the store said he did not have any permissions to make changes to my account. He said I should just use the chat agent on the website or call. He showed me the app he had on his iPad when bringing up my account and it was basically just a read-only view of the website.

Every employer I've had in my 30yr professional career did not care if its programmers came into the office. This included fortune 500 multinationals, mid size regional companies, and small LLCs. WFH has only become an issue since it became a political rallying cry in the culture war.

I bought a Ford F-150 XLT (the full-hybrid pickup) and was very disappointed to find that several of the features (Including Blue Cruise and navigation) were subscription-based with an initial free period of a year or so.

Other than that the vehicle is fantastic - but was very pricey when I bought it, so having to pay over and over for the features was a very annoying surprise. (They quit working rather than quit updating when the subscriptions run out.)

... a bunch of cancer progression theories based on cell culture progression had to be thrown out when it was discovered that the cultures were being contaminated by a particularly robust and aggressive cancer cell culture, HeLa, which had contaminated lab equipment like environmental chambers or survived equipment sterilization and eventually took over culture lines in labs.

These are the same lazy dolts that call them selves "Software Engineer" yet don't know shit on how software actual works beyond an ID, don't understand software developer ethics, and think the can be sloppy because "computers have a lot of RAM" completely blind to the idea there janky ass software isn't the only thing running on a computer.

Modern IDEs have lead to this industry being full undisciplined half wits.

I literally do. Stop being bad at your job.

"I know it is counter to modern coding practices"
it is not. It's literally best practice. Coders not doing this are bad at their job, and should be fired.

Supporting genocide and racism towards immigrants are both treasured neoliberal values. A label that applies to both mainstream Rs and Ds. The only difference is one side makes the cruelty and xenophobia a talking point and the other side tut-tuts about it and hides it behind bureaucracy. This isn't a "both sides the same" argument, just a "both sides less different than they admit in public" observation.

France is currently considering a law that would presume ALL police killings are legitimate until proven otherwise. Basically a license to kill for the police as long as there are no witnesses

Boo hoo. They've received 100s of billions in subsidies to string fiber and stole most of it. If they could afford to do it with copper they can afford to do it with fiber. That's what all those universal access fees they get to tack onto everyone's bill is supposed to buy us. Urban areas are supposed to be subsidizing access for rural customers.

Please look up what 3rd world means.

Data centers need to pay for their own energy increase, be closed cooling systems, and not allow withing 5 miles of a residential area, and residence can't be built within 5 miles of a data center.

A contagion tube that slower and vastly more inconvenient. Plus a bigger polluter.
People pushing for everyone to get on the bus have no clue about buses.
