You all remember just a few weeks ago when Sony ripped away a bunch of movies and TV shows people “owned”? This ad is on Amazon. You can’t “own” it on Prime. You can just access it until they lose the license. How can they get away with lying like this?
“I’m getting a lot of multi-page emails about possible legal proceedings and dozens of people claiming they have receipts,” Ross says. “I do want to emphasize that if I don’t get the help I need, then there will be no fundraiser, there will be no lawsuit, and this practice will continue unchallenged, at least in the US.”

What began as an innocent and unexpected encounter is about to trigger an inferno of violence. For Shearman Waxx is not merely a ferocious literary enemy, but a ruthless sociopath, and now he is intent on destroying Cubby and everything he holds dear: his home, his wife, his young son, and every hope he had in the world.
The terror has only just begun, and it will be relentless…
“I love New Year’s resolutions. This year I’m trying to walk 10,000 steps a day. Woo! When we’re all sharing those out loud and you said give up ketamine, it felt less like a resolution we share with our colleagues and more like something we’ve voiced to close friends and family.
I notice starting on Jan one and then going, it looks like indefinitely, you put two hour blocks every day from 11 to one for protecting your piece. Can you just share a little bit more with me about how these pertain to our work as a consulting firm?
As a friendly etiquette reminder, I know we’ve been out for the holidays for a bit, but addressing the client as BB and email or verbally, not gonna fly.
I know we have that kind of goal setting session and you said, I wanna be that b*****. It’s not a smart goal. Remember we talked about smart goals. So it’s hard for us to measure against.
When you send us all of those like 30 snap chats of the New Year’s party you attended screaming, give me a kiss to like multiple men and women. It felt like a window into your life that we as your colleagues shouldn’t be peering into.
When I pinged you, I was like, where are you? Are you joining? And you were like, it’s 730 a.m. I’m still recovering from the holidays. I got to stop back. I was like, huh? You know, I was like, huh?
We are here to support you and I as your boss, especially I wanna do that. One of your goals, however, it felt like a little more of a personal goal. It was, I need a boyfriend, I’m down bad. I totally, I totally get it. I being alone, especially the holidays, it sucks. That’s not really like a work goal.”

Hesitated to do this but wanted to investigate available options.
Couldn’t find a service to do an MP4 URL to text but Converter.app handled it via local upload.
Unfortunately it’s not really funny anymore. Well I think it is but I have the creator’s mannerisms and timing in mind while reading. Hopefully you’re getting this notification when you can sound rn.
I am down for hyper on-brand, clearly denoted, clever/humorous sponsored segments. StyroPyro was able to advertise a desk this way. So well integrated, honest, and relevant, I didn’t skip even though I don’t need a chemical-resistant adjustable standing desk.
As Pole’s computers crawled through the data, he was able to identify about 25 products that, when analyzed together, allowed him to assign each shopper a “pregnancy prediction” score. More important, he could also estimate her due date to within a small window, so Target could send coupons timed to very specific stages of her pregnancy.
One Target employee I spoke to provided a hypothetical example. Take a fictional Target shopper named Jenny Ward, who is 23, lives in Atlanta and in March bought cocoa-butter lotion, a purse large enough to double as a diaper bag, zinc and magnesium supplements and a bright blue rug. There’s, say, an 87 percent chance that she’s pregnant and that her delivery date is sometime in late August.
In finding out what her meatloaf is made of (sexism), looks like Set Phasers To LOL became a Cheezburger Channel no longer worthy of being featured in their sidebar.
I blocked “lemmy.world”, force quit, relaunched, verified lemmy.world was still blocked… and then found lemmy.world content on All regardless. Perhaps I misunderstand something.
