we had a woman here charged with murder because she got shot and miscarried
The local police department has some metric saying there are X amount of moving violations per day in town divided by X amount of officers so each officer must write X amount of tickets.
That way, it’s not really a “quota“ but a job performance metric they are punished for not meeting.
Totally different technology and they are just using Apple’s name
There is absolutely no reason they can’t pass a federal law and then still allow states to have a more restrictive law. It is stupid to add a preemption barring more stringent laws.
But really no laws are strict enough against data harvesting companies.
It’s not worse than nothing for those of us stuck in backward ass Red states
I went from a 12 Pro Max that was down to 70% battery health to a 15 Pro and I swear the 15 only lasts about 2/3 as long. I know the max had a bigger battery, but it was degraded almost 30% and still better.
I just keep wondering if they made the phone as fat as the camera bump how much more battery they could fit in it
My ex was from Indianola.
You can’t expect a cop to show up and not shoot a black person. I mean, that’s just not how it’s done in the catfish farming capital of Mississippi.
It’s so weird. When you get put in handcuffs here, you automatically expect to get hit, that’s just how it is. And I’m not talking about arrested, I’m just talking about when they put you in handcuffs quote for your own safety“ and then they still take that opportunity to illegally search you or hit you.
It would have to be super old. My 2015 and ‘16 iOS devices were fine. The only thing I had to remove was my 2010 white MacBook (which I just keep around to run home media anyway).
It’s not automatically on, but after the update it pops up on your screen telling you it is now available and asking if you want to opt in or not.
What? TNG is only 35 years old, so what’s with the 50 years claim?
On the eve of battle, on a cold and windless night, an old general turned to a young soldier.
“Tomorrow,” said the master, “you will know fear.”
The young soldier — who had not yet experienced the agony of war — looked at the general with quizzical eyes, “How will I know fear if I do not know what it looks like?”
The general replied, “You will know fear because it speaks very fast and it speaks very loud...”
“If that is how fear acts, recognizing it is easy.” But as the young soldier considered the general's advice, she asked the question facing us now, “Once I know Fear, how do I defeat it?”
Even so, I come to ask myself the same question that young soldier asked that general all those years ago: “How do I defeat fear?”
The general’s answer: “the only way to defeat fear is to tell it ‘No’.”
No. We will not take shortcuts on the path to righteousness.
No. We will not break the rules that protect us from our basest instincts.
No. We will not allow desperation to destroy moral authority.
I am guilty of all these things.
Some say that in life there are no second chances; experience tells me that this is true.
We can only look forward. We have to be torch-bearers: casting the light so we may see our path to lasting peace. We will continue exploring, discovering new worlds, new civilisations.
Yes. That is the United Federation of Planets.
Yes. That is Starfleet
Yes. That is who we are
And who we will always be.
I don’t understand why states can’t just have more stringent requirements and the federal one being the bare minimum
Because Siri is the engine behind all voice commands to the phone. If you use voice to text, like I am right now, that relies on Siri. So you can turn off the search queries, but the engine still has to work if you want it to recognise your voice for anything, and it’s also the AI behind transcribing voicemails and voice memos.
That’s @[email protected]’s point
My dad told me there was fake stuff on the Internet because he saw it on Fox News
That time as a lawyer and time as a prosecutor thing you’re mentioning must be very region specific. We don’t have that here. A law school graduate can be appointed. You don’t have to hold a lot agree to be elected judge— my county probate judge is just some random asshole
DOJ needs to fuck off. Of people want to use an inferior product like android they’re free to, but nobody else should have to suffer for their bad decisions
Apple really doesn’t advertise. The data never leaves apple. Everyone else sells your information.
“Apple… is the most privacy-conscious firm out there. Apple only stores the information that is necessary to maintain users’ accounts. This is because their website is not… reliant on advertising revenue. “

I see little problem with not funding school lunches because we shouldn’t have public schools at all. Parents should have to pay for their kids education and food and they should owe more in taxes because they chose to have a kid. That, any gun control, emissions on vehicles, helmet or seatbelt laws, property taxes, sending aid to Ukraine, laws that criminalise victimless crimes are a few of the reasons I won’t vote for a democrat. And I won’t vote for a republican anyway.
