You sound very angry

No they don’t.

I think we should stop the thread here and agree to disagree my friend.

How convenient for you.

However, as we approach 2025, with growing concerns about online privacy and data protection, Mozilla believes that DNT is no longer an effective privacy measure. Many websites ignore the DNT signal. Therefore, Mozilla has removed the DNT signal from Firefox version 135.

…

Mozilla believes that privacy preference is not honored by websites and that sending the Do Not Track signal may impact your privacy. The company has updated Firefox’s Do Not Track help support page to confirm that.

…

The company recommends using the Global Privacy Control setting as an alternative to prevent websites from tracking user data.

Sorry for the late reply. There is a bit of a federation delay between aussie.zone and lemmy.world. It’s getting better as it used to take a week for comments to federate, now it’s just a few days.

OK so in the first or second season it’s revealed that Carter comes from a wealthy family, there’s a reference to someone being worth $170 million or something like that. At some point Carter makes it clear he’s not proud of his families wealth as it came from profiting of some disadvantaged group during the Depression or something. He wants nothing to do with the family’s foundation that does a lot of philanthropic stuff I guess.

Then a nurse in the ER is looking for funding to open some clinic in season two or three maybe and Carter is like ‘ask my grandmother’ so we get to meet Carter’s nanna who runs everything and wants him to step up and run things after her and he’s like nah I just wanna be a doctor. Anyway Carter’s nanna funds the clinic. Also she lives in a building very similar to depictions of Wayne Manor.

So I have binged like 12 seasons so far, it’s on in the background when I’m working from home, doing house chores etc. So I don’t remember everything about Carter’s wealth.

Skip some years into the future and there is an odd 'The Breakfast Club" type episode and it’s revealed that Carter fucked the maid when he was 11 (gross) oh and also he doesn’t really know how stinking rich his family is but it’s like billions. So we have this very successful show in the 90s and early 2000s and basically the main character is completely unreal compared to some of the other characters, but somehow it works I guess.

At some point Carter takes over managing the foundation.and basically is like ‘this foundation is going to do all this good progressive stuff now and if you don’t like it tuff titties’. I don’t actually remember too much about this part. Anyway all this is happening while he still has a regular day job as a doctor at a hospital.

Skip a year or so further and after suffering a terrible heartbreak (loss of baby) Carter is agreeing to fund a new wing of the hospital he works at (a teaching hospital no less). The cost is $150 million but Carter’s not happy about doing deals with pharma (there are a few episodes about Big Pharma and its influence of the healthcare system) to pay for construction or something so he’s like ‘our family foundation will also pay for that so long as I can name it after my deceased baby’. Then he basically gets promoted to a tenure position based on his wealth but that’s not really mentioned again because he leaves town not long after.

There’s stuff I missed. Also the show is funnier then I remember when it first aired. Anyway, Carter is finally gone. He and his partner have gone back to Africa to do medicine there (that’s where they met).

So is the dog dancing or is it a health issue?

Thanks 🙏

Huh?

Are you vegan?

Just a heads up, your comment federated with aussie.zone after three days. I think it might take another three days for my reply to your comment to reach you. It’s an issue between lemmy.world and aussie.zone which has been ‘fixed’ but might take a little while before az and lw are back in sync. It used to take seven days (14 day round trip) so things are getting better.

Just add gambling for world peace.

What does the ‘without excuse’ bit mean?

Needs to be a background character in a cartoon.

You can edit titles if you don’t want to be looking for posers.

Neat. Thanks. It must be unusual though. That publication seems to have only used it in the title because it’s part of a quote that is the basis for the article. They don’t use that phrasing anywhere else except in a longer quote in the body. Elsewhere they use more common phrasing like ‘go private’.

Yeah that’s what I meant 👍

I’ve not heard the term privatisation used in this way. This company is already privately owned, just not by a single individual or entity. That’s not the same thing as being publicly owned, at least here in Australia it’s not.

I transplanted a tiny Casuarina seedling I found growing in the crack of a train station brick wall. It’s already doubled its height (still very small) so I’m going to need to put it in a bigger pot this week. I reckon it’ll make a good little Christmas tree.

The Australian Royal Navy to my understanding maintains roughly somewhere between 7 and 14 nuclear-powered submarines.

Say what now? Are you human or a LLM?

It is not. Don’t be disingenuous.
