Things are OK. Eh.

Rabbit ear antenna?

So, play the TikTok card. French email clients to be owned by the French. Or crazy punitive laws will be passed.

What's good for the goose ...

Elon should just have blocked X in the EU.

Or perhaps a tab between peace and war.

do you suffer from reading comprehension disability of some sort?

... there's still lynx.

There's already a brokerage that strives to improve customer equity by passing all of its traffic through a fiber optic delay line.

The other option would be to detect some level of cancelled trades or dropped connections and, upon passing some threshold, lock out that account. It can be reset by having Bob Cratchit head down to the server room in the basement and manually log on to a console. Please be patient. The stairs are steep, Bob is old and has nothing more than an oil lamp to light his way.

Oh, there's a reason. And that reason is the names of the companies that have signed up - a bunch of Trumpy tech bros that want to loot the United States Treasury for every cent they can.

They don't give a fuck about long-term damage, because it's a smash and grab. The damage is someone else's problem.

Fine by me. And then when they get it sorted out, it will be just in time for Congress to flip and yank their funding.

I would put all the money in my pockets on "no."

This is the ultimate failure of the corporate-owned press: they are desperate to "bothsides" everything, and so they present the administration's lies as a "side" when they are just lies.

Lies are not a "side" of a story.

Not disagreeing with the sentiment in that this site is trying desperately to increase traffic by lazy posting of political bullshit, but there is often more than two sides to a story. Sometimes there is only one side - lies are not a "side of a story" even when presented as one; this is what has caused the ultimate breakdown in the corporate-owned press: they're bending over backwards to present "bothsides" when one side is being truthful and the other is not.

Many cliches are being broken by this administration, because this administration doesn't play by the same rulebook (vaguely known as the United States Code).

It's a media company.

Media companies sell advertising to stay alive.

To sell advertising on a web site, you need to be able to prove daily active users to be able to charge people money for ad placement.

Stories about politics cause people to froth at the mouth and spend more time on your site, so media companies will naturally drift towards that fiscal gravity. When they actively turn rudder towards it and push the engine to full throttle, we call it "enshittification."

considering how hard it is to get into an Ivy league college why wouldn't most of their students get As ?
