I doubt the people who actually go to his rallies will think that. This is going to tank his popularity among a certain crowd

That kinda defeats the purpose of 2fa though, if you use bitwarden for both

Nike’s growing private jet use sets the wrong tone from the top, said Charles Elson, founding director of the Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance at the University of Delaware.

“It’s, ‘Do what I say, not as I do,’” Elson said. “Flying private aircraft all over the place certainly isn’t a bold action in support of climate responsibility. That’s the problem. Your actions and your words seem to diverge in unflattering ways. It is not a good look.”

Also,

While Nike’s corporate jets have been generating more carbon, the company last year recorded a 65% decline compared to 2015 in emissions from another source: commercial air travel by rank-and-file employees.

Four former employees said the company has restricted worker travel in recent years.

Is that table going under the sidebar and off the page for anyone else or just me? (on web)

Didn't think of that, but that sounds illegal

Community is forcing me to watch so much other media.

My subscription ended a couple weeks ago. I didn't renew it and switched to thunder to avoid ads. If sync gets good updates again, I look forward to subscribing again.

Subscription incentives working as intended 👍

0.95% of these companies, which is only 64 in total, pull in a massive 461 million visits a month combined. In comparison, the vast majority, the other 99.05%, only get a total of 87 million visits. This huge difference highlights how a small number of companies dominate web traffic in the blockchain sector.

So much for decentralization

One of the rare things I admire about cryptobros is how ambitious and optimistic they remain despite absolutely no one using their "revolutionary" web3 product

Not federated, but still good to see some alternatives

 

I have no idea why it's out there, but I suppose abusing it a bit may help toughen it up enough to ensure you can still have children when an accident happens.

 

Title is editorialized because the original is, frankly, clickbait garbage

 

I went to some palestine protests a while back, and was talking to my brother about the organizing, when revealed something I found pretty shocking, we (the protesters) had acquired a permit to hold the protest. Apparently this is standard policy across the US.

More recently, my University is also having protests, and in their policy, they also require explicit approval for what they call "expressive activity". I'm pretty sure not having a permit has been used as an excuse to arrest students in some other campuses.

My question is as the title, doesn't this fundamentally contradict the US's ideals of free speech? What kind of right needs an extra permit to exercise it?

When I was talking to my brother, he also expressed a couple more points:

  1. The city will pretty much grant all permits, so it's more of a polite agreement in most cases
  2. If we can get a permit (which we did) why shouldn't we?

I'm assuming this is because of legal reasons, they pretty much have to grant all permits.

Except I think this makes it all worse. If the government grants almost all permits, then the few rare times it doesn't:

  1. The protest is instantly de-legitimized due to not having a permit
  2. There's little legal precedent for the protesters to challenge this

And then of course there's the usual slippery slope argument. You're giving the government a tool they could expand later to oppress you further. Maybe they start with the groups most people don't like and go up from there.

You may also know it as "creative coding" or the like, but it's not limited to coding.
