Huh. Figured they did that cause fedd.it was already taken. Tried the domain and it redirects right to feddit.it
Weird.

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be
I'll second CrDroid. Gabriel Wolfe I think is the name of the maintainer. He does a great job of it with updates coming out roughly every two weeks. I always had a couple bugs (camera not focusing quite right sometimes, some crash messages on reboot), but never any major issues.
AthleanX is good, though he can be a little intense. Jeff Nippard Squat University
Is Yelp really so dead that you'd use whatever that app is instead of it?
I was definitely in grade school in the '00s, but this is all foreign to me. For me I'd say it was Axe body spray (or the many knockoffs), Uggs, Heelys, TVs in the back of their parent's car's front headrests, having their own TiVo, and LaCroix.
The Wallstreet Journal did a really good podcast interviewing Kenyans who worked for Sama on this particular engagement. Most of them said it affected their lives deeply, one said his wife almost left him as he just "wasn't the person she'd married". I think she ended up coming back after he quit at least, but yeesh. Another said he pulled away from his young daughter after reading prompts about child sexual abuse. Can you imagine that level of mental health hit?
Boy, religious indoctrination sure is scary. Wide-scale brainwashing leading to death and destruction for 20+ years in this case.
I think this is usually specifically for diesel fuel. Certain places have diesel fuel with red dye in it that is tax exempt. Any fuel you buy from a standard gas station has a good amount of tax baked into the price and it's earmarked to go towards road and infrastructure repair. The thought process is, if you're not using said vehicle on the road, you shouldn't have to pay this tax.
So, they dye it red, sell it only at special places, and you get fined pretty heavily if you're found using it in street vehicles. Typically it's truckers that do it because most American cars (including cop cars) are not diesel. And I've never heard of this setup for regular gas.
I disagree with your view on IP, at least for pharmaceuticals. For most drugs, the exclusivity period is only 5 years, after which generic companies reverse engineer the product with ease and create a low-cost alternative. Without this period allowing pharma companies to make their money, there'd be no reason to invest the billions upon billions of dollars into R&D to discover and develop the drug in the first place. Most drug candidates fail, and the wins are what prop up the whole industry.
I'm not defending price gouging and I think all governments should control pricing, preferably with a single payer system (looking at you USA), but we would be so much further behind without patent protection. Especially for orphan diseases.
Don't really agree with you on IP for most creative purposes either. There should be a reasonable length of time you get exclusive rights to something you create. But this doesn't excuse Disney's stranglehold on the mouse.
