"Protected" from discrimination, etc. I understand what you mean. Maybe that's not a great word to use in this case, but it's not lawful to use that grouping method for these purposes — good or bad. It can (and has) been used to worsen such a demographic's situation instead of help.

Perhaps, but what are you getting at?

If it's that they're white and born in the USA, it doesn't matter. If they're Latino because of ancestry, it's well established in US law that that's covered by "national origin." They're still a protected group.

The applicable laws protect "language minorities" or discuss "race, color, or national origin." The race vs ethnicity argument isn't legally relevant since the scope is broader than that.

I wasn't the one you asked, but: dryers tend to take much longer than washers — sometimes twice as long. I frequently find myself leaving wet clothes in the washer while I wait for the previous dryer load to finish, so that I can then put another load in the washer.

In short: so you never have to wait for a dryer to finish and thus can sustain maximum laundry throughput.

Had the same thought, so I used a proxy/frontend alternative. Screenshots here, no account needed:

Assuming you mean the one from the original post and not a movie in which someone gets slapped with a fire extinguisher, it's "Spring Breakers" (2012).
