It's either a scam or a hellscape.

Is it a privately owned company under at-will employment? Then don't allow yourself loyalty to an abstract entity that would ruin your life if it was more convenient than not.
At any rate: If you change, you are safer long term. When things one day get hard, it is healthy to know that you are able to move employment on your own terms.

Also the you don’t have to use it, is a weak argument not even for or against

I'm a software developer, and understand the technicalities and options available to me. I am capable of forking Firefox and make myself a custom build with anything I don't like stripped out. (Capable of, not wanting to.)
They removed "We don't sell your data and we never will" from their FAQ and they added "We may sell your data" to the ToS.
I am unhappy about this change. It is a clear sign that the people in charge of Firefox want to sell user data, and that the irrecoverable enshittification path has been chosen. It means that at some point in the next few years, I can't trust Firefox' with my privacy. And they sure as fuck don't have anything else going for them: The browser eats memory and freezes my camera during video conferencing, and is plain not supported in some of the software I use at work.
The rationale is probably something entirely reasonable, like "While we do not intend to sell user data, the phrasing was too vague and not helpful. What is selling, and what is user data, really?" An organization with strong privacy values would be so far from anything "bad" that the phrasing as it was would not be a problem for them.
It's irrelevant that right now privacy settings and xyz and telmentry is clear and opt in etc. Because the point is that they are gearing up to change that. The settings will be less clear, user data will be separated into shit like "operability assistance", "personal information", "experience improvement metrics" with some of it enabled by default because, etc.
Reading past the headline, the article goes on to say that calorie in/out is correct but hard to calculate usefully and thus they recommend strategies that are easier to keep stable.
It's pretty shitty to equate a first worlder feeling hungry for a bit to actual starvation. One is unpleasant. The other is serious.

If you express your viewpoint in a kind way, that's genuinely the most "winning" you can possibly achieve.
Convincing people in one go is not achievable by just finding the right words.
People may disagree. They may downvote you to hell. They may thank you. They may agree. They may misunderstand.
But as long as you write kindly, people will read what you say and give it thought. Maybe it plants a seed for them to change their mind another time.
Go for it! Let your enemies learn that you can come for them any time!
They want people to feel like rebels with a cause.
This is a good symbol to make a lot of people your enemies. Your ingroup can now rally against "the establishment".
It couldn't work before, because it made too many enemies for your small ingroup, but we've reached a tipping point where it is feasible to keep a thing going for a while.
They were stress-bored and were fidgeting by tapping their watch so much that it accidentally triggered the emergency mode and sent me this SMS.
Alert not intended but also in some way accurate.

Just for fun!
Made a shape out of gray self-drying hobby clay, took a (very clumsy) silicon mold of it, and now I have a fun shape to pour excess soap into if I make too much for the main mold.
On the left: clay thing. On the right: lavender soap.
Almost got a full gel this time, which felt nice.
The olive oil was marinating with shredded lemon peels for a week prior to processing, so it got a really strong natural lemon aroma. Hoping it holds up once done curing. :)
Apart from that, no additives.
Still new, and trying to learn all the things and terms :)
Came over this (store bought soap) and was wondering why it becomes sorta layered after use. I read today about "glycerin rivers" which can happen both during hot process soap, or cold process where the soap gets very hot during the gel phase.
I always felt it was a bit sad that the really cool engine exhaust was always down off the edge of the screen and anything interesting, so I decided to see how this worked.
Pretty happy with it! Learned from last time that I absolutely do not want any processing to go through the main storage, as it makes it so hard to select cargo when everything shifts around.
Also calmed down with engines and uncalmed on production. This thing is used to transport science from Gleba, so it's got to spend very little time refuelling.
Also added fuel, oxidizer and ammo gauges below the main storage so I didn't have to keep inspecing. When everything is full, a 3x7 rainbow lights up. :)
Any suggestions for name? It looks like a beefy dude with hairy armpits, so trying to come up with something that fits my mental image of that somehow.
My first working platform that has now taken me to my first two planets!
After the sad fate of Space Boat which went through the asteroid field like pudding through a cheese grater, and Space Boat II which did not have enough production capabilities to ward off wandering asteroids at Fulgora, the Space Boat III worked perfectly.
With the ability to travel safely and refuel and rearm itself in orbit around any of the starter planets, it is now running autonomous supply transport between Nauvis, Fulgora and Vulcanus without needing any oversight.
At some point I'll have to make a platform with bigger storage and stronger production capabilities so it can travel faster, but for now it does a solid job. :)
