  the reviews used for the star rating is picked based on similarity to “you”, so looking at the same app from different locations or from different devices will produce different scores. Still, 1.7 is extremely low

  Because the signal you’re sending to trans people is that you don’t think respecting our pronouns is a human right.

  She is so vile and toxic in such obvious ways - why not attack her for her wrongs instead?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨JK Rowling prefers two years in jail over using correct pronouns⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  assuming you didn’t make a typo, this ain’t cute. The signal you’re sending is that respecting pronouns is a privilege you reserve for people you agree with.

  any sufficiently advanced incompetence (elon musk) is indistinguishable from malice

  the DDG browser can setup a “fake vpn” tracking blocker for your entire phone. Last I checked certain apps were excluded by default as the tech is quite new and some apps don’t work right with it. It’ll then give you an overview of how many tracking attempts it blocks for each app.

  They probably still do a lot of those, but recently they’ve been using opinion writers to create outrage bait with writings they should know better than to print.

  In the last few years they have been willing to post a large amount of transphobic nonsense. To the point where early in the year almost 1000 current or former contributors signed an open letter complaining about the issue (and made a callback to the paper doing roughly the same thing with gay and lesbian people in the 60s through 80s)

  I looked into it some more and it seems there was a “shady” script you could use to grant yourself any piece of paid dlc you wanted, so The Money People probably asked how they could ensure that doesn’t happen again and just didn’t care about the drawbacks for regular people.

  IIRC payday 2 had glacially slow progression at launch. Now what if you could simply pay some (more) money to skip those boring early levels this time around?
