https://www.cnbc.com/2021/02/16/apple-wins-victory-as-north-dakota-votes-down-bill-that-would-regulate-app-stores.html The North Dakota bill got voted down. Business as usual for “big tech” for the time being.

When a person is a member of a tribe the only way they can improve their status is to participate more fully and faithfully in the rituals of the tribe. Getting a tribal member to disagree with the any algorithm of the tribe is an existential threat to their membership and status. Therein lies the conundrum. Is the cure for the stupidity worth it? What tribe will she belong to?

Salmontaschen? Good grief

One episode left in Season 4. What a great ride. Very easy to follow yet chock full of political and societal questions applicable to today. Character development very very good. I am still ambivalent about Steven Strait as James Holden. I just don’t know. He’s got a Frodo on the way to Mordor thing going on and he’s uncomfortable to watch.

Age only. The health system sent out on MyChart to all eligible and it was first come first served. I was diligent.

Do you charge him room and board? If not then his income is discretionary.

@mik said in Fry Wall: Nice stuff. You can buy a good looking silk tie for not a lot of money. But a cheap tie shines like a sartorial bat signal screaming for help.

@nobodyssock said in Trump surprises supporters at President’s Day rally: @horace said in Trump surprises supporters at President’s Day rally: People born and raised in the most liberal parts of CA, and who never leave, are among the most myopic, politically blindered people in all of America. NS is a perfect example. I can think of at least a couple others over on WTF. You guys are so funny with your assumptions. Which are usually dead wrong as is the case here. I did not vote for Newsom, and I live in a conservative hotbed of California. Sounds like you're just projecting Horace. Try again. You all just shoot messengers. But what can I expect from brainwashed gullible folks? Sure you do...

@lufins-dad said in 'Honest Joe' - any truth to this article?: Yep. To me it seems like it left harbor when W was elected, but frankly, it may have been earlier... I wasn’t really paying attention. Clinton evil

This is just a brief office visit. It's not like it's something permanent, like say tncr.
