We've learned that words are meaningless without follow through. The NLRB change is great, but until it actually starts being enforced there isn't anything to get excited about.

Biden is the most pro union President in my lifetime, but that isn't saying much.

Yeah, I mostly use bluetooth with my phone but not always. Sometimes it's not possible and you just need to use an aux cable or wired headset.

A lot of phones are still limited to USB 2.0 speeds anyway and wireless won't be all that much slower and could potentially be faster.

Not supporting microSD annoys me a lot too. Especially on some phones that still have a dual SIM slot but don't support microSD on one of them. It's not even space at that point.

It's why I'm getting a Zenfone to replace my ~6 year old phone now instead of a Fairphone. It even has a far better IP rating than the fairphone despite the "horrible" water intrusion supposedly caused by 3.5mm jacks.

Fairphones lying BS about why they removed the port convinced me to never buy one of their phones, even if I didn't care about it.

That's all true and it's good to put the statistic into perspective, but even with that context it refutes the comment they replied to.

Tell them that none of the scientists are suggesting they’re going to die from climate change, that’s coming from laymen repeating stuff with their own flair and farming engagement from them on tiktok.

This is straight up false.

I own my house and don't have an HOA. Guess what?

Still can't do whatever I want with it when I want. Still need to get permits and follow local/state regulations.

Looking at the graph, no.

The change appears to start roughly in 2010. It could possibly be ACA related. During the many attempts to repeat it the CBO estimated doing so would drastically increase medicare spending.

Japan created QR codes in the 90s. What changed was everyone carrying around an internet connected camera.

No, it wouldn't. That would lead to more and worse violence as Russia continues it genocide.

The brigade of sealions is insufferable and interacting with them won't help.

No need to use an ableist slur to make your point. It adds nothing and makes it easy to dismiss.

Take it out and your otherwise correct.

So, you didn't read the article? The fear is not about peace talks, it's about support from the US forcing them while Ukraine is making progress.
