To be clear, Synology branded drives are also third-party, but it's just third party they make money on. They don't actually make drives and there's no real technically valid reason behind this move.

I am not American. And the overwhelming majority of those 500 million weapons are with people that think Trump's fascist America is cool.

Im broadly anti gun but i have reasoning and am not blind to their purpose.

The reality right now is that those weapons aren't going anywhere, everything is heating up and nobody (including, increasingly, law enforcement) can be arbitrarily trusted.

So yes, as a last ditch hail mary attempt at self defense i'd recommend arming yourself because that is where the US is at.

The left really needs to get over their weapon aversion. There's no alternative anymore.

What about Jurassic Park worked out in the end? The park got destroyed and subsequently abandoned for decades until the remains were bought out, a new park restarted, that promptly suffered the same fate. Nothing in any of those movies ever worked out.

I like to think if people want whatever it is OpenAI thinks browsers need AI for, the userbase will manifest itself.

This, entirely. Although I dont even wake up later. In fact I'm ready to act on things earlier than I would be had I immediately gone to the office, because I'm already looking at mail and tasks when I would normally leave.

Hybrid working is only a problem to people stuck in the eighties.

Without due process Trump would be in jail, so he's very much aware if it's importance.

"Cannot give every person it wants to deport a trial" can be freely translated to "nobody would get deported".

This is not the first time I read this sentiment, but kidnapping sounds softer to me than disappearing someone.

Kidnapping usually has a ulterior purpose and therefore the implication there's conditions for return. Like money. Kidnapping is rarely itself the point.

That's not the case here with government shipping people off to some foreign concentration camp, never to be seen again.

I'm more worried about why he's doing it, than that he's doing it to be honest, because the only realistic use case I see for this is eugenics.

Yeah i'm definitely in team "flexibility". I really don't mind going to the office, tbh, even mostly, but rush hour commuting can go fuck itself and I'm just not subjecting myself to that anymore. I can start up at home and then move to the office when less people are moving themselves around.

Double income, single household, no kids. (and even then just barely, i will add)

Or, if you're talking time wise, live in a country that isn't run by and for corporations and you can still enjoy some paid time off.

Is it that common? How do they handle backpackers?

I've literally never gone on a single multi-week vacation in my entire life with fully booked accommodation for the whole thing. I book the majority of the first week and I know when I'm flying back, but in between I'm mostly guided by the wind.

I can't book hotels in places I don't know I'll be going.
