No lies detected.

Consent being revoked after the fact is one of the stupider things we've done as a society, and that's saying something.

I don't think that stands up in court.

Doesn't stop you from getting fired at the first accusation.

Criminal or civil?

Honestly, either. You cannot legally "change your mind" ex post facto.

It makes me happy that legally you can't.

It makes me sad that people, mainly on college campuses, push the idea that you can.

Claims it's due to family reasons. I'm sure it has NOTHING to do with how much nicer Florida will treat his fortune.
Yeah, that new capital gains tax for Washington is pretty high. (7%, iirc)
It worked. Surpasses Musk as the richest man.

After Bill Gates became friends with Warren Buffett, he began to diversify his portfolio and sold Microsoft shares. Bill Gates' fortune today is 138 billion dollars, if he hadn't diversified it would be 1.33 trillion dollars.

Holy shit. I missed that, but it's absolutely hilarious. Fuck Bill Gates.

Ordered tractor parts for my mower, to be delivered in 3 days. I want to use my tractor, I wanted those parts asap.

7 days later, stuck in "delayed delivery" for 4 days. I did the automated process that it was late, and wanted a replacement.

They said "Bet, we'll send you a new one. But if the first one gets delivered, you need to send it back or we'll charge you for both. And, if it isn't returned by April 21, we're charging you for both."

SO what is is? IF it shows up, and they told me they'll be charging me for not returning it?

The other day when launching the app I get the message "Nice streaming service you got there. Be a shame if you don't start paying $3 extra per month and get commercials."

Well I didn't upgrade, and just now started watching the TV show Northern Exposure, and there were 5 15-30 second commercials spread throughout, all for the movie "Lisa Frankenstein." I am now very aware that there's a movie coming out called Lisa Frankenstein.

Anyway, I just cancelled my annually renewing Prime membership. Expires in May. We'll see if they come at me with a better offer before renewal time.
They're being class-action sued over this. "This wasn't the contract when I paid a year in advance."
