In New York 2140 Kim Stanley Robinson describes the government telling banks that if they want to be bailed out the money spent will be a buyout of the bank, and the government will run it as a credit union.
Seems like the best solution.

They don’t want to carry inventory because Amazon doesn’t. The prices are higher because vendors are contractually obligated to sell on Amazon at their lowest price. So retailers, with a need to have a physical presence and having to buy at more or less the same price a product is available for on Amazon, get fucked. Their only hope is vendors who make a “different” product to sell at other outlets. An example of what I mean is, Poppi soda sells for $20/12 pack on Amazon. They sell a 15 pack at Costco for the same price. Because it’s a “different” product they are not in breach of contract.
Unless you’re in Texas. Then you need a vpn.
That’s Medhi Hassan. He’s a serious interviewer, and he’s tough with every politician he interviews if they aren’t answering questions.
I wish every interviewer were even half as good at this as Mehdi Hassan is. He is a delight to watch or read when he’s talking to anyone who is dodging questions.
You mean Merrick “mustn’t anger the republicans” Garland’s DOJ?
As a member of the ACAB brigade, this guy is trying to do what is right. The result is exactly why we say ACAB.
Consider this is about traffic tickets and imagine what this guy’s outcome would be if he found something worse. Like something analogous to the LA sheriff’s department gangs, or the Chicago PD’s secret torture sites. We wouldn’t be reading about a lawsuit that he won.
Mass resignations are worthless. Announce a strike. Make them fire you.
Wait. My schedule is 4x10, do I have to come in fifth day?
This is bullshit.
“Rubber mulch,” it’s very common these days because it doesn’t break down as fast as wood chips and it’s better at preventing injuries.
IIRC, the Intercept started during the first Obama term.
They should have gotten this guy to moderate.
The word order is incorrect English. “Israel shoots dead activist” indicates they shooting was done to a corpse. The correct wording would be “Israel shoots activist dead” meaning that Israel shot a living activist resulting in their death. As far as using the word “murder,” while I agree with it that is a legal concept that journalists avoid when discussing state actions to guard against charges of libel.
IIRC, 36” was the biggest standard CRT that was sold do consumers, after that you were looking at rear projection screens which got as big as 80” (maybe more, not sure.).
I know little to nothing about android, but it seems like even if we assume CMG code is in (say) all of Facebook’s iOS apps, each one needs permission to use the camera and microphone so if you deny that permission what CMG claims would be impossible. And while Apple certainly has a spotty record in enforcing App Store rules, I feel like they’ve got a lot riding on being absolutely certain that FB and Google and Amazon apps aren’t violating those rules because those are going to be on every researcher’s list of apps to test for privacy compliance.
Kids sometimes want the “fun” but negligent parent rather than the responsible parent who enforces limitations. Some kids feel a strong emotional bond with a parent who is harmful to them.
Wait, are corporations all male in German?
Drop Site news, 404 media, Pro Publica, Vox is occasionally good.
Short answer is “not much.”
Also, there’s a not-insignificant number of people who have a fridge (at least a tiny one) but no oven.
Spoken like a guy who can’t take criticism.
