Idk it kinda feels like the implication is that if you have due process, then this would be okay. I’m firmly in the camp that nobody should be shipped to an El Salvador Gulag for any reason
- Comment on Great Advertise 4 weeks ago:
Probably could have left out the words “without due process” because they should not be throwing people into an El Salvadorian gulag.

Good to know. Thanks for the additional info

I mean, that’s fair. I guess you could consider trans to be an attribute you’re born with, but I generally consider trans to be a part of our gender expression, which science has described as being incredibly fluid which is why we not only have trans people, but we also have genderfluid people, and non-binary people, and other varieties along that spectrum as well.

Yeah someone will host that for the right price

Oh, I don’t think it’s a stupid rule at all. I completely agree with the fact that they have a rule. If people want a space like that, that’s totally fine by me. Just pointing out to this person that it’s not based on a biological imperative.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
They allow trans women. They just want to a space to removed about women things away from men because men tend to say stupid shit when women removed about us.

Yeah but those services tend to care a lot less then the payment processors but the I do see your point.
For instance, it’s not as easy as you think to get a website pulled down, or to get a domain name restricted, mostly because they’re not paid for on a monthly basis, they’re paid for on a yearly basis, and sometimes they even have contracts for multi years.
Different clouds support different things, that’s why sites like Parlour still exist despite the massive amount of animosity the administrators of that site face.
Getting a hold of a global register to get them to do something about a domain name on their register, while possible, is not nearly as easy as getting hold of the payment processor.
It seems to me that if payment processing was made to be less effective by this tactic, they would have to choose less effective tactics that sites could choose to ignore. You’re right that they don’t own the hardware, but for big companies like Valve, it would be a pretty trivial setup for them especially with companies out there like open cloud.

Personally, I think these sites should do a thing with cryptocurrency so that you buy crypto with your card and then use that to buy the games. So that way the payment processor can’t get mad at you.

Don’t watch mainstream media and get some of your news from independent sources, like Ken Klippenstein. I get most of my news from AP News and then from the Politics section in Lemmy.

Oh I’m not at all supporting LinkedIn in this. Only that this person was able to get their issue rectified since they were able to make waves.
It sucks that that’s what it took

Linkdin eventually fixed it once their media team got wind that this is about to break into a massive story.

Oh I definitely knew. I swore off that system after I spent hours repairing a rootkit on my families multiple computers only for it to happen again a week later.
I moved to Unix and only run a bare bones 11 install for games which is almost not even necessary anymore

Companies only answer to profit and unfortunately we get to see the results. Can’t have those proles making 250 million dollars now. That would eat into the profits of our shareholders.

Well there wasn’t any path for anyone to report anyone before so this is better than nothing.

Hmm
Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias alongside AARP Illinois
Guess the old regulations might have been eating into profits
Still out of 55,000 administered tests only 97 failed. Imho they should keep the restriction because it did remove 97 unsafe drivers.
However, This also creates a path for immediate family members to report unsafe elderly family members.
So is it midlyinfurating? I suppose in that it may allow unsafe drivers to stay on the roads but with immediate family reporting it could also be a wash. I very much doubt these changes will pull more unsafe drivers than the regulations from before since family members will probably be hesitant to report elderly family members

No but I’ve been told the way I hold my pens is similar to the way left handed people right. Rather than push the pencil along the page I drag it. Resulting in my hand kind of looking like a ‘C’ when I’m write
