It’s a civil suit, they could still be on the hook for criminal charges.

Why not? I’ve got a hard drive which I lost the keys to I’d like to recover, and having all the old secrets out in the open would be really interesting.

Same strategy as “School Choice” or “Parent’s Rights”, the first was created to suck money out of the public school infrastructure and put an end to quality free public schooling, the second to basically make children property again.

The headline is agit-prop, letting an extremist group label themselves with some misleading name like “Medical Freedom” is as bad ad repeating the “Death Tax” or “School Freedom” talking points, which is how we lost the estate tax and quality free public schools.

After clawing her way to the top at Red Lobster, Edna Morris is out as the chain’s president for letting hungry customers eat too much of its all-you-can-eat crab dinners.

Now, in this case, you’ve run into slang usage that only loosely adheres to the dictionary usage.

Honestly, I think this usage is very much the dictionary sense of “appealing in a pretty or endearing way”. “cute” covers a range of attractiveness or appeal in a way that applies across the spectrum of more specific compliments. It’s a safe complement to use, no-one is likely to be offended where “sexy” or “hot” is more loaded and explicit.

It’s also a more implied/less explicit way to say “sexy” (e.g. that’s a cute guy) and also works for non-sexualized things like babies and pets so again, it’s a safer choice.

Can we talk about the weird painting/photo of Mitt and his seven kids?

“Your Boos Mean Nothing, I’ve Seen What Makes You Cheer”

The education freedom section is worse, they equate undermining the public education system with “freedom” and while they didn’t weigh home schooling highly, they counted any kind of state standards or curriculum requirements for home school as “unfree”

They’re using memetic compression, the best compression you can get, by simply uttering the filename of the meme we can recreate the entire image or gif. Clearly this is the referenced image:

Man, cleaning out the bio filters was bad enough with all the porn…

Board Yeeted the CEO, most of the staff protested and threatened to quit, MSFT is looking to hire them all away in what can only be described as an unprecedented act of corporate piracy on the AI seas…

Literally making them landed gentry who are above the law.

You would have to go on a long Safari deep in the mall to find something like that… Look for the bitten fruit from the forbidden tree.

You have to be asleep to believe it…

Well, sorta, it does call for a totalitarian theocratic state pretty early on, and justifies the possession of Palestine on the basis of military conquest, which is how it was taken. So, “your religious state is intolerable and only we get to take territory by force; when you do it it’s not halal.”

There’s research showing people get incrementally less intelligent as oxygen ratios get worse.

And I thought the Lead Generation thing was bad, we’re fucked.
