Yes, I’ve heard much about such systems. Can’t say I haven’t envied it from time to time. 😊

Funny because it’s haha funny. Funny also with a laugh that includes tears acknowledging how messed up at all is.
Taxes can be simplified for all. Taxes can be fair. Taxes can benefit the multitude.
And for reasons that seems very intentional, no matter how much politicians talk about reform, the system continues to favor the rich and privileged. Those that need help the most continue to get ignored.
So much could be fixed.
So much could be better.
4·16 hours agoThe sample provided isn’t typical English communication. Context is critical. Use of language as well.
It’s not you. It’s them.
Perhaps someone “in the know” can help you understand the context and explain the missing subtext. I certainly couldn’t. That post was confusing for many more reasons than one.
331·16 hours agoAnd this is why I’ve raised my children to never to unconditionally trust people in a position of power, including even family. We had “the talk” early, made it abundantly clear what kind of behavior from an adult is never okay, watch interactions they have with people like a hawk, and check-in enough to know they are safe.
We don’t have to live life afraid, but we mustn’t ignore that predators can be anywhere and look like anyone.
I feel so terrible for this child and his siblings. The problems in their lives didn’t begin with this rapist.
Life shouldn’t have to be this way. 😭
The Onion singularity is happening in my lifetime!
84·17 hours agoM’kay, Mr. Pope. Nothing ironic or hypocritical about this statement at all…
Admittedly, there is so much about this that I don’t understand. I most definitely don’t think that the solution is using billionaire owned data harvesters. I haven’t used social media like this for over a decade because it’s clear how we and our information is used and abused.
At the same time, I’m unfortunately all too acquainted with authoritarian states. For people to hand over their data to such a state–intentionally–is just mind boggling to me.
So, yes, you’re right. I’m misunderstanding a lot. I am not able to wrap my head around how the content of TikTok and/or other billionaire owned media platforms are worth everything that one has to give up to use them. I actively avoided such companies and, as such, the allure of the content doesn’t draw me in. Sure, there are things that I miss, but I don’t see the exchange as worth it.
Perhaps for some, the move to RedNote is a protest against the arbitrary banning of a single app among a sea of so many others doing the same thing. Perhaps it’s meant to expose the intent of the US and Western governments knowing they will inevitably fold (as the US currently seems to be doing), then the ends will just restore things to the way things were before… which is still terrible. Perhaps it’s just addicts chasing their next fix. I’m sure there’s lots of reasons driving it. From the outside though, it all seems crazed.
There is so very much about all of this that I will never understand. Well, I suppose I do understand enough about human nature to get it. It simply disturbs me. And all the while, the billionaire corps are going to do everything in their power to acquire and use people’s data for their own gain. Governments will leverage it with ill intent. And people will willingly let them.
Still experiencing this on other apps as well. Attached is screenshot from Voyager. Still need to figure out a way to try and get some logs.
Any word on others experiencing this?
Dang. There was a brief hope. Just for a moment. 😁
This is news to me. It really balances it out for all services and media types (e.g. over the air, streaming apps)?
This is one of the primary reasons I use captions. I do not and never will have the equipment necessary to maximize the audio experience. Even if I did, I think I’d still struggle for many other reasons.
So captions it is. I feel lost without them if they are missing. I very regularly look at them to catch missed words and such. They also reveal a lot I would not have never heard in the first place anyway. My kids grew up with them and also get irritated when captions aren’t available. You just sort of come to rely on them without realizing it.
Oh you haven’t heard? The president of the United States is the “Leader Of The Free World.” And Canada will be getting the added boon of joining their Union as the 51st state. He’s making everything great again, whether people or nations realize they need it or not.
He’s fixing TikTok. Fixing Ukraine. Yadda yadda.

I did some reading on this. Looks like the UN 1967 Outer Space Treaty and the 1972 Liability Convention define the “launching state” as being liable for damage caused by space objects, both on Earth and in outer space. Off the latter:
In 1978, the crash of the nuclear-powered Soviet satellite Kosmos 954 in Canadian territory led to the only claim filed under the convention.
Anyway, for the US, the FAA requires companies to carry liability insurance for potential damages caused by their launches. U.S. law caps the company’s liability. The government may cover damages exceeding this cap, but only up to a certain amount.
Basically, SpaceX would likely be responsible for initial claims up to their insurance limits. Beyond that, the U.S. government would step in. Considering how wealthy Mr Musk is, I don’t think taxpayers should be paying a dime to clean a his mess… but the US government is contracting SpaceX.
2·2 days agoIt certainly is common enough. You had me looking it up now myself. No luck though. 🤔
I feel like this can be true, but if it is… they’re dropping the ball in so many other places that genuinely matter.
But the Apollo program was fake propaganda!
