It’s been essentially tried since near the beginning with AOL. Their dialup service required you to have their branded browser (customized Internet Explorer) open to stay connected. On that browser you could only connect to sites in their walled garden whitelist.
Luckily, you could just minimize their browser and open regular IE or Netscape to bypass it.

Even if the company itself doesn’t own any, the investors or lenders will. Thus they will have considerable pressure coming from higher up to force people back to the office, or lose that source of money.

Thing is, corporate ownership also owns a lot of commercial real estate. This push is entirely about saving that investment.

The condensed games cut out most of the between play time. The only presnap you get is any motions by the offense. Also they generally limit replays to contested plays. Either way, it is 90% actual action as far as I can tell and it takes about 45 minutes to watch it.
- Comment on Might be fun idk 1 week ago:
NFL has a streaming service that condenses games for rewatch. It’s literally just the relevant action. It’s a lot longer than 11 minutes. It is significantly less time than the full broadcast, though.

There’s more thane one reason someone might not be convicted of homicide and it’s not always because a homicide didn’t happen.
- Comment on I liked Star Trek before it got woke. /s 3 weeks ago:
It was much better integrated into the story. The problem isn’t the message, it’s the writing.
- Comment on Would you like to finance your hot chocolate with a loan set at 69% apr? 3 weeks ago:
Not all of them are without interest. In fact, the ones you’ll find the most are quite usurious.
- Comment on TIL it's impossible to delete a free trial account for AppleTv+ or Apple Music without an Apple Device 3 weeks ago:
Probably don’t do that second one. That is technically fraud. What you could do is, if you’re bank or CC company have the service, use a virtual card number to sign up for the service and delete it when you want to leave.

Communism is just a different sort of fucked up. It’s just as bad for people in its own way.
- Comment on Does the US really have no instruments in case a newly elected president immediatelly and openly exposes he's a nazi? 4 weeks ago:
In fact that was the only right they cared about.

The civil war wasn’t about the form of government.

ME was an eldritch abomination of cobbled together dos and nt architecture that should have never been.
- Comment on Hulu quizzing about the ads played 4 weeks ago:
There’s no such thing as a joke that doesn’t offend anybody. If you want to tell a joke, tell the joke. If you want to be universally inoffensive you would probably need to become a lurker.

That baggage still exists even if you leave out one of the letters.

They’re is no definition of conservative that would apply to Trump or any maga. They are much further right than that.
- Comment on Time travel is easy, it's just lame 5 weeks ago:
It still takes you an hour, it just takes everyone else infinitely longer.
- Comment on There is a fee to close my HSA account 1 month ago:
You can always just transfer it yourself. Withdraw it from a physical location (assuming there is one) for that bank and deposit it in your own hsa account.
- Comment on Maybe, just maybe, a company that refuses to give you time off if you have a bullet inside of you is a really really shitty company 1 month ago:
It’s a federal law they’re breaking. The state doesn’t matter.
- Comment on We need to go back! Back to the terminal! 1 month ago:
I think the problem is that it’s just easier to explain what to do for someone having a problem by telling them to paste a line of text into the terminal. Having to walk a user through gui navigation is a pain.
That means, though, that anyone getting help to get gud at Linux is going to mostly be leaning terminal commands.

There’s plenty of videos of parking assist failing to parallel park too.

Just because they don’t give the reason doesn’t mean the reason can’t be proven.

You can’t be fired for unlawful reasons. Being fired for taking an agreed upon vacation is illegal retaliation.
- Comment on When leftists say "landlord are parasites" or similar dislike of landlords, do they also mean the people that own like a couple of houses as an investment, or only the big landlords? 2 months ago:
I’m sure your aunt doesn’t mean any harm, but she is still part of the problem. Those 3-5 properties are 3-5 fewer homes available to own for new families and are a small part of perpetuating the housing crisis.
- Comment on CEO brains go brrrrr 2 months ago:
You sir, are entirely divorced from reality. It would be best for you to stop replying to the straw man you made up in your head and reconsider this entire exchange.
- Comment on CEO brains go brrrrr 2 months ago:
I guess the world can be whatever you want when you just make up reality in your head.
Good luck with that.

You may want to freshen up on your history. Ending slavery was a huge debate right at the beginning. They chose poorly in the end, but not for no reason.
Also, there’s a reason the only person you could come up with for your silly comparison was Thomas Jefferson. He was probably one of the most flawed of the founding fathers. Though he’s still a significantly better man than Musk on the whole.

You seem to be under the impression that you’ve asked me that question before. I’m not sure why.
Still, if you want to shoot Trump I’m not going to stop you.
- Comment on CEO brains go brrrrr 2 months ago:
Most of the founding fathers wanted to abolish slavery, but they also knew they needed the economic power of the southern states cotton trade and that they would be virulently against ending slavery. They kicked that can down the road, but laid the groundwork that eventually led us there for the most part.
