Isn't a published book 'media saying something'?

Jerry rig door sensor.

Probably against the rules, but I'd do it anyway.

"The name "Zoox" is a reference to Zooxanthellae, a marine organism that, like the Zoox robotaxi, depends on renewable energy and is able to maintain a symbiotic relationship with organisms in its surrounding habitat.“

Actually kinda cool, but appropriately dumbed down to be usable in modern coversation, "hold on a sec, my Zoox just pulled up."

Funny, the statute $2500 should be for the circumvention act, which was likely singular, not per file obtained during or as a result of the act. And the $150k is ridiculous in and of itself, even if for all files obtained. What a strange world we live in.


Spotify built a system of control in order to profit a few at a cost to many, perhaps everyone else.

Someone broke that system in order to benefit many, possibly at the cost of some of their ability to profit from their system of control--if they didn't lose customers, or prospective customers, they didn't experience any financial loss, or a loss in their ability to maintain their system of control (which is still very much in place and working).

Either way, nobody was hurt.

But the person who acted selflessly to benefit of society in general is punished.

Because... We, as a society, celebrate and work effortlessly to maintain complex systems of abuse in order to satisfy our greed or the greed of others. All despite being taught in school not to lie to and bully each other, and to share with and care for each other.

As a species: We are bat shit fucking crazy!

Certainly comparable... Less instances of murder, less direct impact on accused social justice offenders, more impact on fellow victims of accused social justice offender.

Likely not as well thought out action, more emotional reaction.

Certainly comparable.

She should just donate all the profits going forward, and focus on making sure anything on the platform is legit consensual sex work and not people being forced into it. Not that I think that happens a lot, but she sounds like she'd be up for improving the system to better know for sure, and provide better support and resources for sex workers in general.

Meh, in the end US voting rights have mm ratings...

Wouldn't you want to also be on your own jury?

Direct and financial influence trumps merely financial influence. It could save the billionaire class millions in donations and bribes.

Look what it's done for Trump.

Meh, far as I'm concerned they can still talk about all these events and facts but they should always do so in a positive and celebratory manner.

Not, this site remembers whatever genocide, but instead, this site remembers the soldiers/citizens who faught against a ruthless group who were at the time commiting genocidal acts against indigenous people... You don't even need to name the group of assholes. But it's fine to specifically name the heros and their heroic acts.

Perhaps post education signs that talk about positive changes to an area.

Like in 1998 John Soandso lead a campaign to restore the area you see before you to the healthy natural state it's in today. Because of that campaign bla bla birds and native plants have returned to the area over the years since. Previous to John's campaign the area had been heavily over polluted by nearby industrial factories.

Keep any of the bad stuff referenced as a relevant afterthought. Use the good stuff as examples of what to do, of people to look up to.

I saw some similar signs in NC last time I went through, like the ones celebrating the life of a master builder in area who had helped build many of the still standing historic building. Oh yeah, he was also black and a slave, but that wasn't the point, so it was just kinda noted within the context of the details of his life... Instead the sign celebrated his craft and contributions to the community.
