Just a standard regional grocery chain. They dont have memberships but im not gonna make a scene over $40 worth of groceries i knew I had scanned properly so I just let her realize her mistake and decided not to shop there anymore.
Just saying that the lack of pay doesn’t stop people from appointing themselves as volunteer loss prevention.
Doesn’t stop some people from trying to. Lady at Smiths insisted on seeing my receipt after telling her twice that yes I was sure I correctly scanned all of the 6 items in my cart, thank you.
What’s the charge? Cooking a meal? A succulent BBQ meal?
Americans would turn this into a three day spectacle with costumes, food stands, and merch booths. Then they’d get bored, consider their civic duty fulfilled, and return home to their jobs and personalized media bubble.
Don’t worry, so are they.
They are prominent right wing political influencers. So, in a sense, yes but they’re doing it with zero self awareness.
Doing good things is a distraction from what’s really important: getting that dang cheeto out of the white house!!
I’ll believe the machines are sentient when they tell their boss to eat shit.
Well, the bots do. Like 90% of viewbotting, click farming, follower buying etc is sold by people running phone farms.
The last time this happened resulted in gun control laws as well.
why are they allowed to beta test this shit on public roads
More metaphorical than hypothetical, imo
Gender affirming truck.
It was a parking lot and I was flanked by two SUVs. I don’t think the car was that old, 2018ish maybe? The angle on the camera didn’t show her but when I checked my mirrors and turned around there she was. I usually do check the mirrors before turning around (which is why she didn’t get run over). I just don’t bother with the cameras anymore because they’re superfluous and apparently unreliable.
I tried to use the reversing camera for a while until it completely missed the person walking by with their knee almost on my bumper and I nearly ran them over. Now I just look behind me.
Geofencing is not trivial, cheap, or even reliable. Are there any cases of sites being legally required to geofence or do they all do it to preemptively avoid legal issues? I’ve only ever seen the latter.
I’m not trying to argue what is or isn’t the current state of law around this; I’m pointing out the absurdity of enforcing it this way and the strange way it’s being used to backdoor state laws into federal ones. This is extremely stupid from a technical, and legislative standpoint.
Allowing individual states the ability to dictate laws for the entire country is even more dangerous, for the non-hypothetical reasons we are currently experiencing.
And what you’re describing is exactly what happens with international websites. Its why you can go find tons of websites with open media piracy being hosted in Russia. Are parties in Russia now subject to US laws?
If someone comes from Utah to my state and then I break one of Utah’s laws against them, does that mean I’m subject to Utah’s laws? They aren’t doing business in Utah. People in Utah are doing business with them.
I don’t have any way to prevent access to my site based on what laws you’re subject to. Nor do I have any desire to learn 52 states worth of individual laws that may or may not apply to me. I didn’t wire your computer up to the internet, you did that.
Why is a company or person that doesn’t exist physically in Utah at all responsible for adhering to Utah’s laws? Should be their government’s responsibility to block sites, not the site’s responsibility to block Utah.
So “Tankies” is just “woke” but for neoliberals.
