This is what I don't get. They already pay ad rev portions or whatever to video creators. So why is it so hard to pay ALL the content creators based on ad rev?

I'll chip in some money for the Bill Clinton statue.

Microsoft is hardly one to be involved in this. They're just as bad in different ways. But. As far as search goes, I think it's incredibly simple to change search engines but the problem is Google doesn't give users that choice up front when installing chrome but even if they did most people don't give a shit and will just use Google anyway.

I see the option but I want it to be a toggle like sync or eternity. Is that possible?

As medicine advances, most diseases or conditions will be diagnosed more often. With the extreme increase in technology in the past 50+ years I wouldn't say that cancer is being over diagnosed just because we can find it better. While mental health science is arguably far behind traditional medicine, I wouldn't say that ADHD as a whole is over diagnosed. Is it probable that there are some bad doctors that will simply hand wave kids away with an ADHD diagnosis? Sure but those cases are far less common than you might think. As someone with ADHD I have seen the sentiment that it is over diagnosed arise in my life as people claiming that what I suffer from isn't real and I need to pay attention better, or that I'm just "abusing the Adderall to get ahead in life." So no I don't think it is over diagnosed and people around the world need to have a better understanding of how mental illness truly affects the people that suffer.

I've been on Linux for a while but this shit is starting to make my wife ask about switching over. Which is something I never thought I'd see.

I wonder how many of the accounts on world are ones that are just left for dead as people moved around to other instances. I myself was day one on world but the outages became too much.

They use bing results but they most certainly weren't bought by Microsoft. They have a deal with Microsoft to use their results without tracking. At least to my knowledge. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I was very close to closing on a house in rural midwest but I checked isp's and every one available had caps so I just stayed away.

Will I still be able to do deep dives and by extension the Wicked Implement mission next season? I haven't gotten around to it yet and I won't have time before Tuesday.

I'm starting a new conspiracy that Linus knew all this was coming and that's why he hired the new CEO. I have no facts but I said it on the internet so people will believe me.

If you're pirating stuff I wouldn't let a data collection group just set shit up in your apartment. No idea what they know but imo it isn't worth the risk.

Between this and Madison's tweets I hope the good people can get out and the company dies.
