No multifactor authentication? They must be self insured for cyber because no carrier would have them without MFA.
- Comment on Cold-weather range hits aren’t as bad for EVs with heat pumps 3 weeks ago:
Is this really an article saying heat pumps are more efficient than resistive heaters? Yes, that is why heat pumps exist.
- Comment on Amazon worker who was ran over and shot during NO attack denied medical leave. 3 weeks ago:
Lol, here it is unpaid leave. She was denied unpaid leave. Amazon is reserving the right to fire her for being a victim.
- Comment on 'Star Trek' now a Canadian enterprise. What made it so? 3 weeks ago:
Sci-fi has been Canadian for quite a while now. It’s cheaper to film there.
- Comment on Amazon worker who was ran over and shot during NO attack denied medical leave. 3 weeks ago:
'murica! Everyone thinks if anything happens to you you’ll be able to work things out. Here in 'murica you’re on your own entirely. I’m going to guess that Amazon is denying her FMLA because she hasn’t been there 12 months and therefore are not legally required to. Another great way to scare people into staying at the same shitty job.
- Comment on Demanding a pronoun is like demanding a burkas. 4 weeks ago:
Conservatives are the softest people I’ve ever met. Oppressed by having to consider anyone else’s feelings. God forgive you have to think for a split second before speaking to someone. I guess that last part is what makes it so painful.

Such a fragile little creature.

Nope, OP said that making someone use a pronoun is akin to demanding a burka

So if I just refer to you by the wrong pronouns all the time you won’t get upset? Or if I change your name out for fatty, or fat fuck?

- Comment on Xiaomi has provided official support for Home Assistant 1 month ago:
If you have a hub with local control you get local control, but it’s not clear what other devices exactly will allow local. My main interest would be my roborock vacuum.
You do have to login through their cloud to use this, but typically to get local keys you have to have an account and an app logged in anyway.

Oh goodness, that’s really sad and probably.
- Comment on Startup will brick $800 emotional support robot for kids without refunds 1 month ago:
It contains an enzyme their body cannot process and it effectively poisons them to death. I believe it attacks the nervous system.
- Comment on Startup will brick $800 emotional support robot for kids without refunds 1 month ago:
It’s not even a challenge, one drop of rogaine will brick any cat. App you have to do is touch them with it.

Will anyone visiting know the difference?
- Comment on Consumer Financial Protection Bureau moves to place Google under supervision 2 months ago:
But it’s no different than appointing someone to the agency to do that. Which we all knew he would do anyway. Elon’s meme “agency” doesn’t make any difference.
- Comment on Consumer Financial Protection Bureau moves to place Google under supervision 2 months ago:
Cabinet members can’t dissolve entire agencies. Only congress can.

- Comment on Academic papers yanked after authors found to have used unlicensed software 2 months ago:
Yup, wide use creates a lock-in effect. If your software is used by everyone, paid or otherwise, it’s the standard and you will never run out of paid users. This is why CAD companies offer free tiers and why student subscriptions are always heavily discounted.

Nobody gets that much wealth without Psychopathy.
- Comment on Fired Employee Allegedly Hacked Disney World's Menu System to Alter Peanut Allergy Information 2 months ago:
The US is at will, nobody gives 2 weeks for termination unless maybe it’s a layoff. If a company has grounds to fire you they just fire you. Most will be smart enough to disable accounts before you’re even out the door.
- Comment on Fired Employee Allegedly Hacked Disney World's Menu System to Alter Peanut Allergy Information 2 months ago:
Murder. Firing a gun in a crowd is not manslaughter because you don’t see exactly who you are killing. You know it’s going to kill someone and that’s the goal so it’s murder.

Yes, both are cults.
- Comment on Fitness app Strava gives away location of Biden, Trump and other leaders, French newspaper says. 2 months ago:
Considering Trump almost got his head blown off because they let a guy sit on a roof with a rifle at a political rally for 5 minutes… that’s not a stretch.
