Not illegal, as in you've actually gone through this with a lawyer, or not illegal, as in your company does it anyway?

Because Federally, being salaried does not work like you describe: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/fact-sheets/17g-overtime-salary

Working less hours in a day is not valid reason to deduct pay. Working less full days is. (From the source above)

State law does not trump federal law, unless explicitly called out. It's just that federal law is actually pretty lax regarding most things and states are more restrictive.

Or they do it anyway and hope they just won't get caught.

And even if they do get caught, the likely punishment is just paying out the wages they owe, so why not chance it? Fines don't scale based on revenue, profit, or even damages, if there even are fines.

You cannot be salaried and deducted hours you don't work.

Either you are hourly, and paid for the hours you actually work, or you're salaried, and paid regardless of how many hours you work.

What your employer is doing is illegal, and wage theft.

At least where I am, significant changes in your job are grounds for constructive dismissal.

Unless like, you want the changes.

Personally I just use plain old FM radio in my car

Great if you only want to listen to music half the time.

HDDs don’t require power to maintain their state. So that’s an advantage they’ll always have over SSDs

SSDs are not flash memory.

Only thing I've ever needed to worry about being compressed is brown sugar

A teaspoon of something?

...a teaspoon is literally a defined measurement of volume tho https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teaspoon

For cooking purposes and dosing of medicine, a teaspoonful is defined as 5 mL (0.18 imp fl oz; 0.17 US fl oz), and standard measuring spoons are used.[3]

If they’re so harmless, then why do you care if a very small portion of the electorate votes for them? After all it won’t make a dent, right? :)

I didn't claim that anywhere.

To me it looks like you have a dysfunctional system.

The US does, so the looks are correct.
