Virtually any company big enough to make a worthwhile phone is going to do terrible things. Think a given company is an exception? They won’t be once they get larger.
That being said, the fact that “everybody does it” doesn’t make it okay. The “blue vs green bubble” shit is nonsense that’s totally unnecessary.

It’s extremely difficult to have ethics while being involved in a capitalist system which is inherently unethical. Genuinely giving a damn and putting people ahead of profits is seen as a liability.
I’m sorry I don’t have any advice to give.
Burning jeans are very gratifying to see
Was it imported cheese? Foreign cheese? If so, he had every reason to be irate. Real GQP patriots eat American cheese, and only American cheese! 🇺🇸 🦅
I’m glad he took a moment to specify the difference between pessimism and doomism.
I readily admit that I’m a quiet pessimist… but I also hope I’m wrong, and I still think we should do everything possible to combat climate change.
Whatever it would take to be able to upvote posts/comments without being redirected to an “error” page (I’m on kbin, so if you’re not and this comment doesn’t make sense to you, that’s probably why).
That would depend entirely on people actually posting to the right community and actually following rules. 100% of the time. Won’t happen!
This will go away on its own, and will be replaced by something else just as silly (like beans did, and a dozen other things I can’t even remember, because nobody posts them anymore).
Interesting. Thank you!
I’ll bet there is a website that calculates this stuff…
There is. Have fun!
Please elaborate.
Damn, that’s sad. I have nothing but pity for anyone who considers themselves a “true” or “professional” sea lion.
When I’m not sure, I just give them the benefit of the doubt. For example, there’s a good chance that the person replying to me speaks English well, but it’s not their first language. Also, their cultural norms might be very different from my own. It could be a simple misunderstanding, too. Overreacting would just make things worse.
When it’s obvious that the person replying is just being a pedantic nuisance, though, I merely stop responding. They may think they’ve “won”, but so what? I can go to bed knowing I don’t waste my time sealioning.
Pretty sure any dairy product and any meat is a non-Kosher combination. I’m not an expert, though.
If there’s a more humane but equally effective solution, I prefer that! I feel sorry for everyone here, but especially the child(ren), who didn’t do anything wrong. My harsh response is the result of frustration with the current system.
Well, that makes it a lot easier. Thanks!
It would be much, much easier to laugh at these idiots if they weren’t actually hurting their child(ren) and mother. All this makes me do is wonder why there aren’t much swifter repercussions for scumbags who dodge child support payments.
TEN MONTHS? And they’re sending yet another warning letter? Are you kidding me?
Put this shithead in prison. Let him out on work release every day so he can do his full-time shift at Waffle House. Then back to prison. That will be his life until the last kid turns eighteen AND any remaining debt is paid off.
Yeah, but to eat Kosher you can’t serve meat and cheese together. If you go to a Kosher deli in New York, for example, if you want cheese on your sandwich they’ll serve you the cheese on a separate plate. You have to put the cheese on yourself.
So, what’s on the burgers isn’t considered “cheese”, or it IS cheese, but served on the side, or McDonald’s just said “fuck it” and serves cheeseburgers that aren’t Kosher. My guess is #1. It isn’t technically “cheese”, but some sort of “processed cheese food” crap. They already do that with their milkshakes, which don’t actually contain any milk.
Very, very true. I have met many so-called “Christians” who are only interested in moral authority/power. They usually drive cars with a fish on them, or a bumper sticker with some cliche about god.
I worked with ONE person who was probably the most faithful Christian I’ve ever met. He didn’t talk about religion. He didn’t wear a cross (or if he did, it was on a chain beneath his shirt and tie). He never judged people. He was genuinely pleasant to everyone.
I think there’s a significant overlap in Christianity and Republican thinking because many people are okay with hypocrisy and disdain critical thinking.
They probably get away with it because it isn’t really “cheese” as most people define it.
When I started typing, I thought that was a joke, but now I’m genuinely curious.
It’s definitely not just you.
