Not all home internet is unlimited. In many US rural areas, home internet connections have a monthly cap just like mobile networks do. A higher cap costs more, if it’s available at all.

SON BE A DEEENTIIIIST!!!

Because to them, it is no different. They aren’t making money off what they have deemed ‘out of production’ equipment, so the search for endless profits means they need a ‘new’ machine to be bought at a frequent pace.

It’s about profits, not people. Bottom line rather then bottomless life.

Just tested, can confirm it’s true. Gotta be really careful how you fold it though, and the only way to ‘double’ it is to put it against a mirror.

Circus music 🤡

Isn’t this really close to the plot of Fahrenheit 451?

I use a terrycloth robe as my towel. I dry my hair with the back, then put it on and head to my bedroom to get dressed. I’m dry when I get to the dresser.

They’ll stop beating that dead horse when it stops spitting out money

If your local library isn’t too far, you could go there. Most public library’s have events or clubs they host, ours has it all on a corkboard near the door so people can see what’s coming up. If you pick one, you know what the other people in it are interested in (for the hours they’re at the club or event anyway) and you can use that as a starting point. If one club or event doesn’t work for you, try a different one next time, you’ll most likely meet a whole new bunch of people with a different topic of interest.

Looks like something Homer Simpson would dream up

What a terrible loss

Disclaimer: I’m not a lawyer, just someone who knows his rights in this particular case in my particular locality.

Some companies will “require” that condition to have an account, but legally you have to be given the chance to opt-out and not be retaliated against for that choice. I haven’t had a single company refuse me an account or access for excluding myself from their arbitration clause, yet. However, I suppose it is a possibility, although I believe a very small one. Since it’s a legally protected right. However a business can refuse service, so it’s up to the individual to determine how they want to safeguard their rights or surrender them for services, based on their needs.

PSA: You can opt-out of arbitration clauses

You can not be forced to give up legal rights in a contract in the USA, and anytime an arbitration agreement in the US is pushed out onto the public like a big ol’ turd by the @55holes 5h!tting on us from up high, we have the legal tight to opt-out. This usually only lasts for a limited amount of time, typically 30 days after “agreeing” to the new TOS, and the process has to be done manually, like with an email or actual letter. Yes it’s a pain, they design it that way so less users will do it. But it can be done.

I live in New York, one of the most northern and blue states around, and have my entire life. In 7th grade I decided I didn’t like saying the Pledge of Allegiance, the name alone sounded odd to me, like why are children pledging themselves to a country, when we can’t even really understand what that means? So I stopped.

The school staff lost their minds.

Luckily my parents taught me to be firm in my beliefs, if I had truely thought about them and believed them. So I stuck to my choice, and my parents backed me up on it when they arrived at the school 45 minutes after the Pledge normally ended.

On a side note, I had read ahead in my Social Studies textbook that week, and learned about Nationalism in Nazi Germany, and it had sounded strangly familiar to me. Not long after the Pledge of Allegiance incident happened.

“Thoughts and prayers” seems to have crossed the pond. I genuinely hope they are more useful over there, because they are absolutely worthless here and usually indicate that nothing of consequence will be done about the matter.

Sounds to me like there is a class of people that shouldn’t continue to hold position. Even Jesus said the rich where detestable. “It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle then for a rich man to enter heaven.” Once ‘rich’ and ‘poor’ aren’t a viable distinction anymore, the problem you describe is resolved. Not that other problems wouldn’t be present, just saying some change is needed.

TURN DOWN FOR WHAT

But her religion specifically says to go forth and multiply! /s
