90s low rise jeans, pockets or not with hip bones on display is what made me know I was straight. Exposed midriffs and back dimples were all the rave there for a good bit.

Edit: I think low rise denim skirts were big around that time as well, I have no complaints about late 90s fashion

It’s when you replace an Army four star general with a major from the national guard.

The reason they keep saying the word merit is to convince their base they have any. Many of them do not. No offense to any retired majors out there, but do any of you think you are more qualified than a 4 star general to fill the position of Secretary of Defense?

Cell phones will never come about because I went back in time and killed a mass murder.

Supports far right movement in Germany, says they are the only way to fix Germany.

Agrees with Jewish people being anti white- "“Jewish communties [sic] have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.”

The billionaire owner and CTO of X, formerly Twitter, responded the same evening: “You have said the actual truth.”"

Does NAZI salutes on a national platform.

People in denial: “I’m sure it was a mistake”

Wouldn’t the ISP be liable?

I only acknowledge technological advancements made in writing utensils. Keyboards and Typewriters do NOT count. So don’t even get me started

It’s just colors, if colors evoke blind hatred in someone, I likely wouldn’t want them around me anyways. It looks to me like an interlinked web of different nodes. Which seems to be a pretty accurate representation of the hosting and federations.

Sec. 2) This division prohibits distributing, maintaining, updating, or providing internet hosting services for a foreign adversary controlled application (e.g., TikTok).

The “providing internet hosting services” seems like it could be an issue there

Not all apps, review/travel sites get a pass, and the decision is left to the president, which is a dumb way to do it.

DIVISION H-- PROTECTING AMERICANS FROM FOREIGN ADVERSARY CONTROLLED APPLICATIONS ACT

Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act

(Sec. 2) This division prohibits distributing, maintaining, updating, or providing internet hosting services for a foreign adversary controlled application (e.g., TikTok). However, the prohibition does not apply to a covered application that executes a qualified divestiture as determined by the President.

Under the division, a foreign adversary controlled application is an application directly or indirectly operated by (1) ByteDance, Ltd., TikTok, their subsidiaries, successors, related entities they control, or entities controlled by a foreign adversary country; or (2) a social media company that is controlled by a foreign adversary country and determined by the President to present a significant threat to national security. (Here, a social media company excludes any website or application primarily used to post product reviews, business reviews, or travel information and reviews.)

Yeah, that’s why I brought that one up

Not sure that is true though. When I read the law it specifies that the President can choose to block ANY foreign owned social media site that they (as in the president) deems a national security threat. So Trump could in theory say ban RedNote tomorrow and it legally would have to be done. That said… he may be able to just say “bytedance is not considered a national security threat at this time” and that may be enough to let TikTok continue to be in the U.S.

I’d have to read it again to confirm

Edit: nah ByteDance got targeted hard, no dodging that.

I didn’t bother following the court case, what were they arguing, freedom of the press?

Multiple apps must have done so.

That’s what I see when I search for Marvel Snap on the playstore. Someone mentioned it was down as well earlier

Richest man in the world and we have to pay to clean up his shrapnel. I have a good feeling he’s going to set a record for the most people pissing on his grave someday.

Their themes were sexy as well. Infinite scrolling was off by default, I have to say if I weren’t avoiding going back to reddit, it looks pretty great.

My favorite was when I took Calc 2 and the teacher just told us if we knew someone who took the course in the last 7 years ask if you can get theirs. The new version just deleted 4 chapters and didn’t even change the chapter numbers. It just went something like Chapter 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,13,14,15… brand new price tag though.

It was, they sold the clickers
