    Yup, people will use their race when it is to their advantage. People say: "We want to be treated equal and everyone should be colorblind" But also say: "Wait, when making the new election districts, this one does not have enough (whites/blacks/spanish/asians, etc). You must remake it to get more/less of that color into the district!!!!"

    @copper said in Smoke 'em if you got 'em: There are reasonable people who disagree. Yeah, there are a ton of reasonable people out there who think that health and safety in the workplace is a bad idea, as is wearing a safety belt. They're everywhere.

    that is why it is so important that the US look outward rather than inward. Very very important to engage with other countries at times like this. Isolationism would be the wrong response at a time like this.

    @copper said in Windows 11: The file explorer default font looks slightly different, but maybe not. I think it's a slightly different flavor of the Segoe UI font they've used for a while. Also looks 1 pt smaller, too.

    @friday said in Once upon a time in med school...: So.....how are you supposed to present the case? "Mr. Barnhardt is a 56 year old person who identifies as 'male'." " Mr. Barnhardt is a 56 year old Non-POC male." "Mr. Barnhardt is a male who declines to state his age" "Mr. Barnhardt is a person who declines to state their age" "Edward Barnhardt is a person who declines to state their age" So. Many. Possibilities.

    The only major tv streaming alternative is Hulu - owned by Disney. Many streaming services are planning on raising prices this year (including Hulu I think). Google could have taken the cost increase and passed it onto customers - but this is an interestingly hard stance by them. I’m sure they’re going to lose many subscribers over this. I don’t subscribe to YouTube Tv, but I sort of admire the move.

    Seems like the executive(s) are in favor of dropping it, and those who work inside the planes are in favor of it continuing.
