snooggums, to asklemmy in What are your criteria for upvoting/downvoting?
@snooggums@kbin.social avatar

Downvoting a post because they weren't the first to respond is silly. Do you compare time stamps or just something with fewer upvotes and lolisted lower on the screen?

It just seems like a weird reason to downvote, and I downvote pretty freely.

That is also now Nord works, they just clarified that they would comply with a court order if necessary which is how legal businesses work.

"From day one of our operations, we have never provided any customer data to law enforcement, nor have we ever received a binding court order to log user data. We never, for a second, logged user VPN traffic, and the results of multiple audits prove that we are true to our policies," the company said.

We never, for a second, logged user VPN traffic, and the results of multiple audits prove that we are true to our policies," the company said.

In the event the company does receive information requests from a law enforcement agency, NordVPN says it "would do everything to legally challenge them."

"However, if a court order were issued according to laws and regulations, if it were legally binding under the jurisdiction that we operate in, and if the court were to reject our appeal, then there would be no other option but to comply. The same applies to all existing VPN companies if they operate legally. In fact, the same applies to all companies in the world," NordVPN said.

So they don't log and are just admitting that they might need to if they were forced to. That is extremely reasonable.

A company admitting they comply with the law when ordered to by the court is a positive to me as it means that they don't do it unless they don't do it on a whim and they are complying with the law, which would most likely also include privacy laws. Any company that would refuse a court order is going to be shut down and probably have all of their records turned over instead of the narrow subset that would be ordered by a court.

It was a combination of eating in the car or getting it and taking it to one of our many parks that had picnic tables.

As a kid in the 70s/80s we regularly picked something up at the drive through and took it to a nearby city park when in town. On road trips we would pick it up and stop at one of the many roadside parks on the way to wherever we were going. No rating in the car because that was messy, even though I know other people did.

Also convenient to pick up on the way home once both parents were working and there wasn't time available to cook a full dinner many evenings, what with sports and other youth activities.

Yes, people ate in their cars too. But a lot of the popularity of druve throughs comes from being able to rush to the next thing with our overworked culture.

If you are just force feeding yourself the crust, maybe not eating the crust would be a better choice since it is just carbs at that point.

I usually go with garlic butter or ranch for the crust breadstick, but curry sounds pretty good.

I love pineapple on pizza.

Eating crust first is a war crime.

snooggums, to risa in TIL that Geordi directed some episodes
@snooggums@kbin.social avatar

I remember a few long running TV shows with cast writing and directing episodes.

Duchovny directed a few XFiles episodes.

Two of the leads directed episodes og SG-1, antihero wrote at least one episode.

Those two are just off the top of my head, but I remember noticing cast doing extra stuff regularly. Probably not too common in the early seasons, but it is a great way for them to branch out.

That said, some are more successful than others.
