Also breaking news, the sky is blue

Wouldn’t businesses want more people, tho?

Does it work on Firefox? Seems to not work for me.

Instead of “sub” , I propose “dom”.

That would be ironic if more pro-LGBTQ people showed up and paraded instead.

Is this the right article? It said they just did a test.

The “tokenization” you hear credit card companies using like Mastercard is cryptography. It isn’t cryptocurrency or blockchain. When people say “crypto” isn’t being used, they mean blockchain in this case.

Tokenization is when the number on your payment card is replaced with a ”stand-in” number that is saved in your phone or watch or the merchant’s site where you register your card. Tokenization protects your account by using that token instead of your real card number, which the merchant never sees or stores.

I think our opinions on the law are irrelevant here. The SOCTUS said it’s lawful for the president to impose tariffs. So the only way to change the SOCTUS decision is to pass another law making it explicit that the president doesn’t have these powers.

I’m not a lawyer so I can’t interpret the law. However, the judicial branch can and there haven’t been any rulings which have indicated that the president didn’t have the power to set tariffs.

Another law would be needed to be passed so judicial rulings could say the president didn’t have this power.

I’m not sure if this is true. It was delegated to the executive branch starting around 1930.

China has the edge, here. Its communist single-party system and centralized planning allow them to quickly adapt. The US, as a democracy, moves slower making it harder to change. I think China knows this, and they’re betting the U.S. will cave first.

To be fair it’s not just Trump. 2/3 of congress could step in at any time to take tariff powers away from the president, but they choose not to.

The honeypot probably has access to their Tiktok algorithm and “coincidently” likes all the same things.

European companies and communities already host decentralized alternatives like Mastodon, a federated network powered by the homegrown Mastodon software. These GDPR-compliant tools allow users to control data and interconnect across servers—a model echoing the EU’s federalist values. However, fragmentation, lack of user-friendly UI and underfunding limit their reach. A unified EU initiative could fund these projects while the alliance of European companies and communities could merge these projects into a public-private platform. It is in the best interest of the European Union to provide funding for European-owned social media platforms to ensure their development and European digital sovereignty.

It would be awesome if the EU started funding the Fediverse.

No surprise there. We just went through how blockchain is going to drastically help our lives in some unspecified future.

I didn’t mean to imply they weren’t already more productive than in-office workers.

I’m saying that the effort taking away support from remote workers should instead be going toward supporting them.

We should be learning how to make remote workers more productive. Not forcing them back to the office.

Sure, they are reporting stories that align with American interests, but it is through accurate reporting, not disinformation.

For example, VoA extensively covered what was going on with the Uyghur population in China.
