For those unfamiliar with that incident:
On April 9, 2017, at Chicago O’Hare International Airport, four paying customers were selected to be involuntarily deplaned from United Express Flight 3411 to make room for four deadheading employees. One of these passengers was David Dao, 69, a Vietnamese-American who was injured when he was physically assaulted and forcefully removed from the flight by Chicago Department of Aviation Security officers. Dao, a pulmonologist, refused to leave his seat when directed because he needed to see patients the following day. In the process of removing him, the security officers struck his face against an armrest, then dragged him – bloodied, bruised, and unconscious – by his arms down the aircraft aisle, past rows of onlooking passengers. The incident is widely characterized by critics – and later by United Airlines itself – as an example of mishandled customer service.
Off-topic, but did you see Linkerbaan got baanned? LOL

I’ve never heard about that. Please cite a reputable source so I can read more about it.
the real scum reaps rewards behind the scenes
It’s Roger Stone, isn’t it?
15·2 months agobundling tons of spyware
I couldn’t find any info about this with a quick search. Do you have any links to where I can read more about this?
adding unique IDs to every installation.
I wasn’t familiar with that so I did a quick search. For anyone else interested here is some info about it:
- Each Firefox download has a unique identifier -ghacks, Mar. 2022
“Internet users who download the Firefox web browser from the official Mozilla website get a unique identifier attached to the installer that is submitted to Mozilla on install and first run.”
[…]
“Firefox users who prefer to download the browser without the unique identifier may do so in the following two ways:”
-
Download the Firefox installer from Mozilla’s HTTPS repository (formerly the FTP repository).
-
Download Firefox from third-party download sites that host the installer, e.g., from Softonic.
“The downloaded installers do not have the unique identifier, as they are identical whenever they are downloaded.”
In the comments section someone says:
“It seems that getting Firefox from GNU/Linux repos (Debian, etc.), doesn’t come with unique IDs.”
It’s like Windows in a window. Not just Windows, but you can run many other operating systems in a VM too.
“We like the clean design and improved performance of Microsoft’s latest operating system, but it still suffers from its fair share of issues. Here’s what people gripe about the most.”
And they don’t even mention the ads or that Recall garbage
thing that takes screenshotsbeing forced on you even though the public made it obvious they don’t want that. That and all the telemetry; it’s pretty much spyware disguised as an operating system.I’m sure there are more things but those are just the ones off the top of my head.
*Edit: I remembered the name of Recall
Why is it so hard for Trump supporters to understand that there is no such thing as “blue maga.”
Democrats don’t fly Democratic candidates flags, wear their merchandise, wear diapers and bandages “in solidarity,” storm the Capitol because their candidate said to, etc. etc.
Democrats aren’t followers like cult members. They actually think for themselves.
Then you’re another useful idiot.
How so?
You can’t have a civil discussion with propagandists. They can lie far faster than you can call them out on it. All you can do is troll them.
That’s all? Seems like someone might be using psychological projection when they call others a “useful idiot.”
Judging by vote totals, we’re already in that sea of .ml alts brigading on behalf of hexbear that I mentioned.
I always laugh when someone assumes the reason why they’re being downvoted because their assumption is almost always wrong.
I downvoted you because of how childish you’re behaving. If you don’t debate in a civil manner nobody will take your argument seriously. Regardless of whether I agree with your argument or not, trolling always deserves a downvote.
You need to touch my balloon knot, mate
No wonder nobody is taking you seriously.
I ADMITTED I COULD HAVE MISUNDERSTOOD. What more do you want from me?
Calm down. You’re getting way too worked up over nonsense.
I would ask that you clarify what you mean. I could be completely wrong and misunderstood the context of your comment, but, and excuse my assumption, but to me, it seems you’re being rude, a troll, an alt account from a person I pissed off, or just a random dude that I’ve never interacted with that is taking exception in a sarcastic way
Like I said, I could be misinterpreting your statement and mean no offense
Quoted, for posterity.
How do you know a tankie from a government paid shill like UniversalMonk?
I’m not familiar with UniversalMonk. Why do you think they’re a government paid shill?
I’m not the person you asked but I just did a quick search. I don’t know if it’s more prevalent in the US or not, but here is a scientific journal on the subject:
“The medical profession faces a critical challenge with the mental health of its practitioners, leading to an alarming increase in suicide rates among healthcare workers (HCW).”
It’s commonly pronounced the same way as “hour.”
Ow-er. Ow, as in ouch.
