Got PakOS, but since I’m not Pakistani I’m not sure how useful it would be

Same here in California

We don’t talk about Gary

Hell yeah. I save all of our scrap copper over 6awg, and use it at the end of the year towards my employees’ bonuses.

There’s a dude in our town that has a lot where everyone dumps their scrap metal and he takes it to recycle. It’s pretty rad since our local trash service won’t take it (even though they dump everything together, including recyclables, at the transfer station to be hauled off to the dump out of town).

After the 3rd he couldn’t stance, he was flat on his feet.

More money

“X’s owner now has the ear of the president-elect, a man who has a long history of helping his friends, and punishing his enemies,” said Max Willens, senior analyst, at Emarketer. “Sending at least a trickle of ad spending toward X may be seen as good for business, albeit in an indirect way.”

Now now, how would private capital profit off of a FOSS social network? Won’t someone think of the investors?

Not stupid, just too many years on the internet. I thought the same thing at first glance.

Or they could just store the data locally on the user’s device and not transmit it back to a central server, such that the company never even has possession of the data nor any way to retrieve it?

I want to say it was a clause of the FCC’s Fairness Doctrine, wherein newscasters were legally required to present information on events and political matters as unbiased as possible on publicly-issued airwaves. It lost a lot of its steam when cable became commonplace, as cable networks were technically closed-circuit systems, and then it went out the door with the internet. On top of which, stations like Fox News claiming to be entertainment and not news stations helped their cause. The original idea was that if the FCC was to grant you a broadcast license, you were obliged to operate in the interest of the public, and the doctrine expressly forbade operating for personal gain.

Ah gotcha. I just remember that they used to do it for I think the original iteration of e911 and thought they kept it around for other purposes, but I didn’t realize the necessary equipment and financial details involved, so that’s fantastic news. Thank you!

GPS is kind of a tossup since your cellular provider can just as easily triangulate your position with their towers, and there is no escaping that outside of putting your phone in a faraday cage.
