  • Well its allow only essential / reject all non essential cookies.

    Idk I used to have to go through one by one and do this. Now there’s typically somewhere around 4 subcategories. Essential / strictly necessary cookies say always active and there’s nothing you can do to change anything in that category and everything else has been lumped into other categories you can reject by hand or hit the reject button. all those companies fall under marketing. I guess maybe if I turn off the marketing / targeting category, there’s some within that don’t turn off, but much of the time they don’t even give me the option to check who’s participating.

    Maybe I have trained myself not to go to those places. If I have, it wasn’t on purpose. Occasionally, i get interested in a subject and randomly search, but i dont do most social media so idk. Maybe I don’t even realize hit the back button anymore when i see it menus that make me do this. To me this post seems like something that I would encounter maybe a year ago , if not more. Not something I see on the regular now. (Edit: suppose since about a year or two after the EU passed their laws)












  • Both. My family lives out in the county. There’s no rules as to what is supposed to done with the land.

    So…They clear cut it. They’ll leave a few small scraggly oak trees which will mostly all die in a year or two. It’s horrible. They turn a beautiful forest into a dry desert in a week.

    They’ll misquote a local rancher, spout misinformation about certain species of trees to justify their horrible land management practices.

    And then wonder why the area has less water and is getting hotter.

    It’s funny how, in my area at least, the HOAs are always stopping people from wanting to plant, and the people who can plant want to make it look like an HOAs wet dream.


  • Good. Nowadays, theres a degree requirement for so many fields that didn’t used to require one. The most competent workers I know, don’t have degrees. All the new people with degrees have no clue what they’re doing, yet they get paid more and are treated better. It’s painful to watch the best performers get passed over, while the people with degrees are held on golden pedestals while they actively drive production into the ground. Especially, when their degree isn’t even for the field they’re presently employeed in.

    While certain jobs should require degrees, there’s a huge amount of positions where practical and hands on experience would (and should) trump a degree, any day.
