Has Trump rehired anyone from his previous administration? I know he fired a shit ton of them but I know a few managed to stay on.

Because if this is all new people, it’s very telling and I have a feeling it means it’s going to be more dangerous and not less.

I feel like the only people who can do anything powerful would be the front line government workers and contractors. If they all quit their jobs en masse on January 20th, it might prevent the new administration from doing even more dangerous shit.

I wonder if mobile providers are still getting paid for long distance calls. Because if they are, they have a perverse incentive to keep scammers on the line.

Which, in this isolated case, I’m okay with.

If Alex Jones becomes press secretary, I’ll be convinced that this is all a simulation.

A part of me actually wished that the Onion would have purchased InfoWars, but in secret, like maybe under a subsidiary corp that has a right-wing sounding name.

They don’t change Infowars’ branding or anything but the articles become subtly liberal.

Maybe an overt purchase is better but I really want to troll the right.

Unilever is a conglomerate, much like Nestle, and has brands under many different types of products.

Yeah the fuckers sold out. B&J quality has been in the shitter ever since. Yeah they still sell pint sizes but I fully expect them to fuck with that too.

My guess is that it’s the easiest and cheapest way to set up “MFA”.

The number of banks that don’t have proper MFA really bugs me.

The trick that the Government has learned is that it’s easier and cheaper to buy your location data from a third party.

No warrant necessarily since the data is available to anyone who wants to buy it.

I was just thinking this. If you’re dev, being on pure Linux makes a ton of sense. But if you’re a gamer, Windows is still your best option.

I actually believe it because it’s exactly what happened in brexit. Conservatives voted to leave and then they found out what that meant.

Conservatives were so focused on winning that they didn’t bother to actually look into Trump’s “policies” and are now Pikachu faced when understanding it.

These are the same assholes that are going to completely forget two years from now that Trump raised prices and will still vote Republican in the midterms.

What we should do is put chainlink fence around the corner, but make the part that the users loved the most accessible with a monthly pass that they can only walk on with shoes purchased at the university store.

Do not under any circumstances bring your cell phone, dumb or not, to a protest.

Memorize important numbers, writing them in your arm if necessary.

Answer all questions with “I assert my fifth amendment right and will not answer any further questions without my attorney.”

The ironic thing is Breyers ran commercials about how you could pronounce every ingredient in their ice cream. They had like a 10 year old read their ingredient list vs. competitors.

But when they got bought out by Unilever, quality went downhill fast

For now. I fully expect rules like this to be fully rolled back so that ice cubes will be legally “ice cream”.

There is a scene in Mr Robot where Darlene is able to do a full wipe on her phone without even looking at the screen.

I wish I was that good.

I want a way that I can trigger this from the main lock screen without unlocking the phone.

Like a specific pin you have to enter twice to trigger the full wipe.

You forget that we will have a president who ignores the rule of law.

He’ll issue an executive order shutting down the exchange website, minimize the exchange workforce to 0, and require everyone to apply by mail.

Red states did just this with SNAP benefits and did exactly what they intended.

Your employer offers you insurance by pooling its employees together to get a bulk rate. Your employer then subsidizes your plan (in most cases) and pays a fixed amount for your participation.

Essentially, the government did the same thing except it pools everyone who purchases through them.

Fun fact: if everyone purchased through the exchange, it would overall be cheaper for everyone but then tHaT iS sOcIaLiSm!

First get rid of FPTP.

THEN and only then can we form a new progressive party.

Yeah but Epstein’s friends are rich and have ready access to attorneys.

More evidence that our justice system is more about punishing the poor.
