Hover.com has worked for, well decades now. They’re really Tucows with a shiny coat of paint, and Tucows were one of the first registrars.

So you agree that no sport should allow national flags of any kind. Or competing as a representative of any country.

Because doing either of those things mean the sport is being political.

Work it out yourselves as adults not a trap on the waiter. Meanwhile as adults, the invitee has the right the claim the bill, otherwise split it. There are rare exceptions and you all should be mature enough to sort that out through conversation.

Exceptions: if a friend is unemployed or having trouble and I’m not I’ll always offer gently to pick up the bill. Don’t fight if they refuse. There’s a few friends where we alternate for historical reasons There’s one friend who helped my family in a way I don’t consider ever able to pay back, they know in advance that they don’t pay for meals if they’re with us. Because it’s simply the least we can do.

If you know me you would have messaged in some format that is more reliable than calling on the phone.

If you called you either don’t know me or it’s important enough you can leave a message.

Racist tries to explain why they’re not racist by doubling down on racism

They don’t. I mean not in a “oh trust Meta way”, obviously don’t, but…

These privacy cards are self reported by the developers and have nothing to do with enforced API or data access. Obviously not reporting something like identity while asking for the user’s real name on the first screen is likely to be noticed by AppStore review, but it’s just as possible for a developer to check every box to cover their ass (what Meta likely does since let’s be honest they do vacuum up everything you type into the app at a minimum) as it is for a developer to check no boxes and still be collecting various bits of info. Which is of course why things like HealthKit actually have on device permission screens and need access confirmed by the user directly.

And of course a user giving or not giving direct permission is very likely used in any fingerprinting that they’re doing

I always feel like folks who are using LinkedIn as actual social media where they post are doing it wrong. It’s useful for one specific thing and as soon as you start posting your daily thoughts or whatever then the whole thing falls apart.
