He wants them to help the next time. That's a pretty tangible benefit

It'll be the LGBT groups, just like last time. Do you hear how violent the rhetoric has become about trans people? They're also a small enough and defenseless group.

But yes, it will be other groups before atheists.

There is a possibility that Elno gets EVs mandated, or at least promoted to a greater extent. Of course this will only be for Tesla, but there would be a ripple effect on other brands.

If they didn't already know about it, they're pretty shitty execs. It's been SOP for decades

It's probably wiser if you climb on the 23 year old's shoulders instead. They don't need ibuprofen for back pain yet

Repeated ad nauseum? Only in the furthest left areas of the Internet did I hear it mentioned more than in passing. It was a very brief series of news posts. It came up in the debate, and he managed to brush it off as not being his. And everyone just let him get away with that answer.

Do you have any idea how many mailers I got about "stopping the liberal agenda"? If there had been as many, or any at all about P25, maybe people would've been appropriately concerned

I think you're massively downplaying how much of a hit this will be.

Let's say you make $100k/year. Think about the lifestyle it allows. You've just been informed that it's now going part time, and you'll only be making $15k/year. How far does that get you?

Now, you're expecting someone else to pay for that advertising spot, so it won't be that bad. But who is even eligible? Microsoft's Bing is the obvious answer, and probably DDG. The rest of the default search engines aren't even general web searches.

Do you really think that either of them are going to pay any significant amount to be the default? Especially when most people are going to change it back to Google anyway, since these are automatically people willing to change to a different browser?

Sure, they might be willing to pay something. But it won't be anything close to what they had before.

It's little solace, but not all destination countries will care about that. It might force you to stay away, which creates its own issues.

You forget how close it came to passing. You can singularly thank John McCain for stopping it.

I don't think there will be another one to stop it this time.

You're not wrong, no /s needed. You can look up "campaign donations" and cross reference their undying support. Most politicians are bought for around $10k/election.

I'm in IT. It's the advice I wish I'd followed from the beginning.

Once you get comfortable in your job and it becomes routine, you need to find a new one. Keep growing your skill set, and probably take a hefty raise each time.

Don't worry about being a job hopper - it resolves itself easily enough when you don't find the next position for a while.
