That makes a lot of sense.

This might make some of you uncomfortable, but it seems like this coincides with women's adoption of tech and social media.

Women already read at way higher rates than men, but since so many of them are swept up in the social media hysteria, they literally don't have time or patience to do it any more.

I didn't really read this, but it might not be that simple.

Most libraries will actually let you check out books "indefinitely," as long as you come back and renew every once in awhile.

If this church is splitting up checking out these books among different members, then it would be very difficult for a library to properly detect and enforce restrictions on them.

Even if the library could identify these people and put methods in place to stop them from what they're doing, it would still be a hassle and the church could be happy with just inconveniencing the 'liberal' library.

That's actually really funny.

I can't believe what goes through these people's minds.

I mean, these places are just grocery stores at this point. That's all Target is for me.

If I bought games, I would just buy them digitally or order a physical copy if for whatever reason that's what I want.

Books? Free downloads at anna's archive.

Movies? Free streaming sites and 1337.

Olive oil...? Decent? Isn't it all kind of the same thing? Lol. But yeah, that's just a grocery item you can get anywhere else.

They are competing with Walmart and Kroger, as a grocery store. That said, it's not much of a competition because you can buy the same damn groceries at Walmart for cheaper than Target, always.

The wealthy people will just pay to have the ads removed.

As always, this law doesn't exist to benefit workers like you and me. It exists to benefit our rulers and should be another example of how government representatives do not represent their populace.

I'm already getting into self-hosting.

It's surprisingly easy, and can be done with a VPN that has port forwarding.

Wouldn't be surprised with how shittifed the web is becoming that we end up with alternatives to DNS since it requires forwarding on port 80.

All that money that could be spent improving the lives of poor people in need.

That's fine.

It means their expertise can only benefit companies that value morals.

Remember, corporations need us more than we need them.

Man, all those saps that started studying AI thinking it was necessary are in for a rude awakening.

I'd almost feel bad for them, if they weren't so eager to follow the memes while making the digital space worse for all of us.

I'd wager some innocent soul thought they were being clever by pointing out what makes a disney princess, and then more innocent souls lapped it up to feel like they're "in the know."

Kairi is a Disney Princess and that was a centerpiece of the plot in her story, but she does not sing as far as I know. Certainly not in the first game where this lore was established.

(she honestly has barely any lines or presence at all, which sucks)
