Doing anything on Facebook is the opposite of private.

One thing most have done is incorporate more air, as part of shrinkflation. That makes it more soft because it’s less actual product.

Others have answered, but the reason why “states’ rights” don’t matter at the Federal level is the Supremacy Clause. States can be more restrictive than the Federal government, but cannot be more lax/loose. An interesting aside is the states that have legalized marijuana usage, where the Federal government has (as of yet) not cracked down on that. It is within constitutional power to do so, but just hasn’t.

I’m on LibreWolf. What made you switch?

The US is the primary military force protecting Taiwan, by treaty. That’s likely why.

Weren’t the headlines a week or two ago about Microsoft trying to get taxpayer funded aid for reopening 3-mile Island? Companies shouldn’t be asking for taxpayer funded handouts when they are basically printing money at this point.

Isn’t Microsoft Copilot just ChatGPT?

People on the opposite side of that tolerance spectrum look at us avid ad avoiders like we put in too much effort to do that, so I see it as two sides of the same coin. I started blocking/avoiding ads due to the nuisance, long before privacy and security became even more prevalent attack vectors through advertising. That was just a benefit to the time saved by blocking ads, but not it’s a primary use case.

Unlikely all 4 though. Give people 1-2 they can map services two, instead of multiple wasted (branded) buttons.

I learned my lesson from the early days of covid. Buy that good stuff i bulk as a habit, not as an emergency reaction.

I’m like 80% sure they were being sarcastic in that comment. I hope so anyways.

Biden went somewhere on this?

Both of those scenarios still leave a conservative majority. Unless a Dem Senate pulls a McConnell on new nominations.

Well yeah, that’s technically their purpose.

States legalizing it are doing so because the federal government is basically turning a blind eye to the supremacy clause on that topic (for the most part). States always have the right to be more restrictive than the federal government, but when they try to make laws less restrictive, it’s technically not on solid legal ground. That said, laws only matter when they are either enforced, or blindly followed.

I guess that means the US will send another $10B “self defense” aid package, again. Sigh.

They’ll appeal anyways, all the way to SCOTUS. It’s part of their overall strategy.

Yes

Apparently “held accountable” is “got secret amounts of cash”.
