That’s hilarious, that you had to pretend you were dying of cancer for such extravagance to make sense in your life.

Unfortunately yes.

Yeah but where can anyone make you go that you don’t have a floor?

I guess you could be tortured and held up in stress positions.

We have the same tax law in America. Can’t deduct clothing that you could wear for non work.

It’s a good practice because you always have one nearby. One of the few things no one can ever take from you.

This is not an area of law I stay up to date on, but that did not used to be the case. Is that a rather new development?

Last I knew most courts were holding that since customers are sharing this information with third parties (sharing with their phone companies, Apple and Google, Facebook, etc.), giving everything away anyway, most individuals have waived any claim to an expectation of privacy. The right to privacy is founded upon reasonable expectations. I did hear about some pushback on that, more recently, but not from the Court of Appeals from DC, which has jurisdiction over appeals taken from federal agencies, prior to the Supreme Court. I’d be grateful to be shown otherwise. About time, if true.

Search and seizure, the Fourth Amendment, only applies to State actors. The only exception is when a private entity is acting as an agent of the government, such as in the case of private prisons.

Congress needs to pass consumer protection laws aimed at privacy in the digital age. They haven’t updated this sort of thing I believe since 1996. It used to be legal for adult video stores to disclose the tapes people rented, but Congress passed a privacy law forbidding it when some journalists disclosed some of their rentals. The scandal had some cool name. I forgot what.

Very well. The other night was at a fall festival and they had some carnys pushing carts filled with toys and balloons, you know, plastic swords, plastic guns, snaps, stink bombs, and blow up guitars, etc., and they all had a bunch of flags for sale, including, at the very top, a bunch of made in China trump shit.

I saw one carney, who was black, and he did not have trump shit. So when it was time to let the kiddo pick a toy or something, I said he could buy from that carney. And I struck up a convo by offering that it was his lack of Trump shit that got him this sale; an important thing, I think, to tell retailers of this sort. We dapped it up for a second and he was looked at me like, “come the fuck on, obviously there’s no trump shit on my cart.” He said one of the other Carneys told him how much more money he could make, and how he asked the other guy back, “man, are you fucking stupid?” Nice guy.

The fight you’re looking for is one you need to have with yourself.

Oh damn that is funny.

I’m presuming it’s well water because city water wouldn’t do that unless there was a major, widespread problem.

$200 is for the full array of tests. VOCs, heavy metals, bacteria. Good to get the full testing done at least once.

Is anyone drinking this water?

When is the last time it got tested?

You ought to do a send away test. It’s about $200 bucks on Amazon.

Dumbass do you realize that in 2015 they completely restructured Google specifically to avoid claims of antitrust?

What happened illegally between 2015 and now that thwarted Google’s plan?

Didn’t Google already break up? It’s called Alphabet now.

He was a real pyotr pyuffor.

E: thank you to the four of you who upvoted this even though I had like five typos in my slightly clever wordplay joke.

Oh well it’s already a better app. without them.

It looks photoshopped.

I think it’s the second option.

I also think that everyone should have just one internet account. And every website you sign up for or account you create or whatever has your real name publicly associated with it.

You could still post anonymously, but there would be no username associated with it. Just “Guest” or “Anonymous” or whatever. No linking back to your socials if you say a bunch of crazy shit online without using your actual identity.
