“I’m in a government that condones - if not encourages - businesses from rejecting customers based on their own ideology, but don’t do it to me!”

The CEO made a remark about Trump, and used his corporate account for it.

If I recall correctly (no press statement was made by Proton), it was a personal remark on a corporate account, which he was quick to allow anyone to do. It also didn’t support Trump as a whole, just a remark Orangeman made about getting small business a level playing field (which I totally trust from an olicharch).

I’m still sticking with Proton for the foreseeable future, as its privacy awareness and advocacy is still a core business value.

Think of the Small Business is the corporate equivalent of the Think of the Kids fallacy

He’s a selfish sociopath

Sure, being a thief is bad, but one case of theft doesn’t instantly make him a CEO.

Yeah, I won’t buy another one again, but now that I have one, I don’t want to e-waste it just because the cable is too short.

Electric fire danger is really changing my opinion on this though.

It’s partly “in case we’re deciding to be idiots and go to active war zones” stuff, but I see those rich fucks using military level weapons against civilian drones because they can afford to act above the law.

Hitler killed Hitler. Pretty good score.

^(It’s fucking sarcasm, of course.)

Someone who killed a human being in cold blood.

Someone who killed someone who kills people by pretending to be a health insurance, whilst not paying them when people try to use said insurance in cold blood.

The sentence is a little longer if you give the full context. Nobody was innocent here.

A hotel I stayed at recently had a vending machine filled with beer and wine. It just worked with the honour system, no ID check or whatever.

It was fairly nicely priced too, especially for a hotel.

Imagine being an author whose sole income is writing books.

Here comes an AI that stole indexed your work and is asked by a customer of OpenAI to summarise your books. It does so perfectly and the issuer is able to use your results freely, since they think it’s AI generated and doesn’t require attribution.

You receive nothing in return.

Good luck making a living.

Edit: stole to indexed, added edit note

How dare you speak for other nations like that.
Sounds like they’re lacking some essential American Freedom™!
Come to think of it, sounds like you’re acting very Red™ yourself.

Hey, they gave some people an Uber Eats coupon

The former, unfortunately.

Stop! Sync for Lemmy and/or markdown can only go so far…

Not all of us are able to use superior tools like LaTeX for our documents, unfortunately

not really to there being less physical obstacles

Depends on availability. Plenty of eateries don’t have vegan options and this is especially true for locations accommodating larger groups. Furthermore, a lot of vegans need supplements (as I’ve been told), which is also subject to availability.

Lastly, it’s easier to convince a thousand people to eat less meat – especially since they usually already have the ingredients required for vegetarian food at home – than to skip meat alltogether.

Two thousand meals a week that turned vegetarian is a lot more impact than 70 meals turned vegan.
