When the truth is paywalled and lies are not, is it any wonder how our democracy turned out this way?

It dismisses the notice and lets you keep playing. But then it pops up again a few seconds later if it still detects motion.

They also prevent you from catching Pokemon above 40mph, which is annoying when you actually are a passenger.

The smart thermostat that came with my house has that “feature” and I hate it. If I don’t walk past the thermostat for a few hours, it assumes I’m not home and then lets the house turn into an icebox.

That’s the main use case I’ve heard as well. But, If I have to scan each item as I put it into the fridge, why not just scan it with my phone and keep a less expensive dumb fridge?

Sadly, yes. A third grade transfer student from a good school district might very well be smarter than their teacher. Especially in rural areas.

A good teacher sees being corrected as a learning experience, and encourages their students to question them respectfully.

Bad teachers see it as a challenge to their authority.

Toothpicks work great. They are wood or plastic so they won’t conduct electricity.

Trump did put Ajit Pai in charge of the FCC.

That’s legit the reason why Lara Croft is the star of Tomb Raider.

Because the voters aren’t holding their elected officials accountable. People should be following bills like this and voting against politicians that don’t support it. Then holding the ones that said they support it accountable if they don’t follow through (after fully understanding why they didn’t/couldn’t).

People on here call this pandering. Good. Saying that they will do things that benefit society is a good thing. Maybe the problem is with the party that campaigns and the people who give them votes on a platform of hurting society.

They would be struggling a whole lot less if Putin wasn’t actively ripping the USA apart from the inside.

The problem is that our society not only failed to punish, but actively rewarded someone who committed atrocities on par with world history’s worst people. The problem is that it still does, which encourages more people like him to do more things like he did.

It’s insane that people would vote for someone who is too cowardly to even answer softball questions from his own propaganda network on a stage of suck-ups.

It only happens when there is a republican house and a democratic president.

For republicans, it’s win-win. Either they get what they want, or they get to blame the democrat president for the damage they cause.

A lot of people don’t understand how hard it is to fix things with a hostile Supreme Court and an obstructive congress. To the people saying “both sides are the same because Biden has only managed to clean up a few of Trump’s messes”, how would you do it instead? Biden has decades of experience, and he’s trying. Do you honestly believe someone else could do better?

"When looked at in historical context, what stands out isn’t that polling in 2016 was unusually poor, but that polling of the 2004, 2008 and 2012 presidential races was uncannily good — in a way that may have given people false expectations about how accurate polling has been all along.

The other factor is that the error was more consequential in 2016 than it was in past years, since Trump narrowly won a lot of states where Clinton was narrowly ahead in the polls."

And the Dems better make sure the voters know about it instead of just focusing exclusively on the abortion issue over and over.

Here is a 2 minute video about being able to hold the idea that Hamas and Israel are both in the wrong and civilians are getting hurt on both sides as a result.

You can donate to Mozilla, and I do. https://donate.mozilla.org/en-GB/

A lot of people will have to donate a lot to equal the amount they are getting from Google though, and if Google pulls that money I feel that Firefox would end before people donate enough to make up the shortfall.

That touchscreen plays ads loudly as well.
