This has been an ongoing issue for years. That’s why whenever I buy an high value item from online, I always start recording every step of the unpacking process.

California lawmakers on Thursday passed a bill known as the Delete Act that would allow consumers, with a single request, to have every data broker delete their personal information.
Oh mah gerd did you just assume Kutcher is just as bad as Masterson?!?? REEEEEE!!! INTERNET DOESN’T UNDERSTAND NUANCE!! /s
But for real, I think announcing support for a rapist is different than feeling sympathetic for an old friend. Many idiots on this thread seem to not understand the difference and it’s infuriating. If Kutcher would’ve just said, “Hey, he’s an old friend and I hope he gets the help he needs ASAP” I don’t think many people would care. But obviously, that wasn’t the case and some people can’t seem to understand that very basic concept.

I always loved how /r/blackpeopletwitter only allowed black people to post in that sub, because that’s not racism.
Also, they verified users just by asking them to send a photo of their skin, like people couldn’t just find a random picture online. Truly the dumbest sub in existence.
That’s stupid as hell. There are all-women groups that call themselves ‘bitches’ like “The Godless Bitches”. Is lemmy.ml going to censor them too? This white-knighting BS has to stop.
In the years following the 2013 debut of Adult Swim’s cartoon phenomenon “Rick and Morty,” its star and co-creator Justin Roiland became a titan of the animation and video game industry and a rock star of youth counterculture.

With the right channels I regularly discover amazing movies, series and documentaries that I’d probably never choose to watch if I had access to them on a streaming platform (which I don’t).
Or, there’s a thing called recommendations on streaming services. You really think streaming services aren’t going to recommend you something new to watch? That’s literally all they do when you’re not watching something. This doesn’t make classic TV superior to streaming in the slightest. Why would you limit yourself to a stationary TV when you could stream on any device? Sorry, but your reasoning is terrible.
It’s been a long time coming on the phone, but people acting like Apple wasn’t a major player in the USB consortiums push to get type C standardized for everything is always fun.
Yeah no, no one is acting that way. We’re all well aware of Apple’s USB-C only push on the other devices, we’re referring to the phones. I can’t believe this has to be said.
