I was looking at podcasts recently and it was the same. I assumed it was because the people with the money will support content that furthers their bottom line.

But what about landlord tipping?

I wish everyone would stop saying “humans are social animals”.

More importantly, the Supreme Court said he can’t be prosecuted if he’s trying to do his job.

Not in the U.S., but my last ISP had a line in the contract that allowed them to sell my browsing info to advertisers.

From what I remember pre-election news was saying wealthy dems/dem donors wanted Biden (and Kamala in some report I saw) gone primarily because they didn’t like what Lina Khan was doing. There were also questions about whether Kamala would continue to support Lina Khan after receiving donations from wealthy donors. JD Vance praised her work and it sounds like the Trump nomination is going to continue similarly.

I don’t like Trump at all and I know how petty and sycophantic he can be, but this may end up being one case where I end up preferring the result on this one specific issue over what we may have had if the dems had won without Kamala or if she flipped and agreed to drop Khan. I won’t really know how I feel about this selection until I see the result.

(Quick search turned these examples up that I’ve only skimmed, but I need to log off: https://www.politico.com/news/2024/10/24/kamala-harris-lina-khan-00185345 https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/kamala-harris-rich-donors-lina-khan/)

I wonder if it affects them if they are collecting purchasing data from US citizens residing in the EU. If nothing else, the US military and diplomats are there. From what I’ve found, it protects anyone in the EU, citizen or not.

Experian is stuck on an old phone number for 2FA and I can’t remove it because I don’t have a phone number. I really hate how they tie everything to a phone number.

It’s also incredibly fucked up that they’re worried about real estate prices falling in an economy where so many are having a problem paying rent or owning a house.

They probably won’t lock down again. It will be full steam ahead for the economy. Keep throwing bodies into the burner.
