No, they really are. No doubt they do plenty of stuff at the behest of the NSA, but they are also a deeply disfunctional company with conflicts between departments and bare minimum funding for security, since it's seen as a cost centre

Nah, nonprofit state-run landlords (in countries which have them) are great, and strong protections for renters are good. I don't want to buy a house, I move around a lot, don't wanna deal with lawyers every time I move, don't wanna be responsible for maintenance, I just want some basic level of security and not to be completely ripped off.

Why is 85% the magic number? Just because you say so? I do agree that increased property taxes are important, but there's no reason not to also make rental contracts less exploitative.

They mean pet textiles like dog blankets etc, I've seen the same rule in shared laundry facilities all over Europe. The hair fucks up the machines pretty bad and gets on the next person's washing. Sometimes there's a dedicated smaller machine where it's allowed.

The health benefits of exercise likely outweigh the negative effects of COVID for most people, especially vaccinated

spin off Android into their own custom versions that will more likely be more locked down, not less

I disagree. I agree they will make the user experience more locked down, but nobody will buy a phone which is only compatible with 6.73% of apps from whichever, as you correctly say, which means there's no profit motive to lock down app compatibility.

Oh, I see, you aren't actually interested in nuance, just trolling
