We talked on the phone last night!

Yes, you do

Remember, Jerry: It’s not a lie, if you believe it.

Try Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, Mint as LiveUSB’s to see if you like the experience. Installing different DE’s can be done, and there are also versions of distros with KDE as the default. Giving one distro a shot really does yourself a disservice, especially if your answer is to go back to an OS that has reached EOL.

Yes you do

Yes, anything conservatives do not like. Coincidentally, everything they do not like is also antisemitism.

I turned read receipts off years ago. Texting is not supposed to be an always connected, immediate response, experience. That is what phone calls are for. Also, don’t ever call me. My phone is a time waster/SSH client.

Pretty sure the military apparatus said similar things about the reporting during the Vietnam war as well.

The shit thing is that even if there is a massive blue wave in November, Trump legislates from the Oval Office, and the Supreme Court backs him up. The rhetoric will continue to be dialed up, as the republicans abject failure at governing becomes more apparent to their supporters.

The establishment will do anything they can to hinder anything from the left gaining power, which is why they sent Harris.

The company will pay it, then it will sue the father for the non-work related charges. Maybe Google will cave and dismiss most or all of the charges. But if they do not, the company most certainly will not eat it and be satisfied. Losing his job would be the least of his worries. They will eventually petition to have the court collect the money via force (garnishment). Trust me, either way, you’d end up paying at least some amount.

I don’t understand what you are trying to say.

They will take you to court. When you lose, they will order you to pay. When you do not pay, they will garnish your wages. You would end up paying, the original debt, plus all of the legal fees and fines.

This is not something that gets sent to a debt collector who will call you a bunch of times before selling your debt to someone else.

Accepting bids of five dollars

That’s what I’m saying. Work should be completely separate from personal life, doubly so for expenses. This is wholly on the father, of course. I like the idea of giving youngsters agency and such, but it must come with guard rails and some amount of supervision. The father clearly had no idea what he was getting himself into.

Defending Google? He used a company card on an account to pay for Roblox money. Shouldn’t do that. If he had not done that, then he would not be on the hook for so much money. Also, please don’t tell people to injure themselves. Personal responsibility is a thing.

Google automatically saving credit cards is scummy, and should not be a thing.

How would you get around that? That amount of money is most certainly take-you-to-court worthy.

Keeping company card saved to an account that is not expressly used for work is a bad idea. Not sure how that makes one a bootlicker.

The reality of being a transgender person in America in 2026 is that on election nights, while other folks are talking about who had a good night and who had a bad night, sometimes you are quietly wondering, ‘Am I going to be OK?’" Hack said.

That. That is what the cishet majority does not even consider. The amount of trans athletes in competition is stupid small. The cishet’s also do not know what trans care for youth looks like. They can’t be bothered to google it, so they believe whatever angry person on tv/twitter says.
