100% agreed. The fact that it's possible to deport someone who has lived in America for decades just for getting laid off is absurdly cruel.

Definitely seems like they want the layoff from my position in the industry.

The tech megagiants are massively reallocating their budgets from "paying people for new product development" to datacenter build-outs, under the belief that AI will fundamentally restructure all knowledge work into property you can own and extract rent from.

Unfortunately the industry is completely non union and a good chunk of employees are on H1B or TN visas where they will get deported if they get fired. That really puts a damper on wanting to rock the boat.

Expect things to get less stable and shittier over time as this trend continues.

They were forced to as the result of an antitrust settlement in 2009, and then the "remedy" expired 5 years later and they ripped it out

I'm holding out some hope, since twitch is live but YouTube is pre-buffered, but they could still block loading past the ad on a timer or a key computed from hashing the decoded frames of the ad, idk

I agree and am also not hopeful given how the courts have been acting.

It's only ok if he's gay. Happy pride, I guess.

As I remember it, reddit got its start when "internet culture" was pretty heavily downstream of 4chan/somethingawful/ytmnd. And pedo-type behaviour was pretty normalized in those spaces.

Kinda yeah. WebView2 is edge (chromium) based and definitely is not uninstalled by uninstalling edge. But it won't have the browser chrome or the MS Account association (for now, we all know it's possible for ms to make things worse 💀)

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implantation_(embryology)#Implantation_failure

Reproduction in humans is not very efficient. Only around 30% of natural conceptions result in successful pregnancies. Of the failed pregnancies around 85% are due to implantation failure.

Seems like it's extremely normal for a fertilized egg to fail to implant and be flushed out during your next period.
