Difficult != Can't be done. I'm well aware of the difficulties. Distributed systems design is one of my specialties.

GDPR only applies to your servers. Data deletion is probably the easiest part to deal with.

pats shoulder yup. Unfortunately our government is run by absolute monsters.

Its Israel and Zionist bullshit as usual. Why are you surprised?

Yes, being shitty at their jobs. even the frameworks/packages are not to blame. its which you pick and how you use them.

for peoples context: just checked a few sites most range in the 30MB-150MB per page. which is pretty reasonable for the complexity of the websites involved. one included a streaming service actively playing a video.

Its just that these things add up across 100 tabs.

And I'd simply shrug and point to my original post to you. Then I'd suggest you put your phrasing in context to the post and the original statement made by the person you responded to.

Then I'd kindly suggest you think on how your initial snark to that person might lead to people being equally snarky to you.

Then I'd suggest you reflect and realize the fact the only one upset here about the snark is you.

Now if you wanted to have a meaningful conversation about those 3 organizations that's fine. but this isnt the post to do so unless you have some particular claim on make that would be related to helping americans make ends meet.

Personally I didn't care much about your original post or discussing those 3 agencies in particular. I just thought it was an amusing choice of 3 completely irrelevant agencies to the context of the entire thread and decided to save some people the effort of looking up how extremely unrelated they were to the topic at hand.

Like you could have done the health department, EPA, FCC, or any number of other agencies that routinely impact american's day to day economic lives to make your point.

wat. lol. javascript has nothing to do with the memory consumption. just humans being shitty at their jobs.

its cute to watch you try to defend your choices as being even remotely relevant. maybe if you were better at reading comprehension you wouldn't be in this mess.

I also have only minors complaints with fios, mainly around incremental price increases until I call to tell them to knock it off. just dog piling =)

eheh, oi! you have my sympathies.

that dev is full of shit. nothing in decentralized systems limits ease of use and functionality. just makes the software harder to write. the invisible hand of the market nonsense is classic misdirection.

You’re asking me about what passed legislation I believe meets your vague generalizations of approval? What kind of game is that?

Its a way for you to demonstrate your position and for me to critique it. exactly the way I did your original list. If you can't point to anything that only demonstrates the point I was making and why the democrats have continued to lose elections to fucking fascists.

Remember its not my job to defend the your position. My point in its entirety is that you can't point to any bill within my life time that actually substantially improved the quality of life for workers at large. ACA didn't do that, We havent had labor or work reforms in my entire life.

And its not a lack of power, I'd be willing to accept state level labor reforms too!

The best I can tell is that you haven’t liked anything in the last 85 years.

A safe assumption w/ respect to american workers quality of life! Do you consider this a problem? I certainly do. And there are plenty of bills I'm supportive of over my life as 'better than we had' or 'good economically as a whole' but none that improve american workers quality of life or economic well being. Hell we just saw the biden administration break a union strike.

This is why the democrats keep losing, add in a little genocidal support, imprisoning Palestinian protesting students, and shocked pikachu who would have guessed the result.

I don’t need to.

I didnt say you needed to. I was asking if you could think of any. that was the point.

we clearly disagree on ACA. it, like many bills such as PACT, have limited impact on the american worker. its only real win was ending absolutely inhuman practices from the insurance industry, but even those practices only impacted a small minority. the insurance markets it set up are an absolute mess of overpriced trash and the resulting system it created where insurance companies benefit by paying hospitals/pharma more for care.

These type of bills shouldn't be hard to recognize which is why you having issues pointing to any is so damning. I would have put student loan forgiveness in the category if it actually got done, or a min wage increase, or anything from the list i mentioned. but you wont find anything remotely comparable for almost 80 years.

ug I really wouldn't bring PACT up. just points out the massive issues with our health care system. its the type of legislation that never should need to be done in the first place. its highly specialized and is caused by the absolute wide spread disfunction they've caused health care to be.

That's a long way to say you didn't actually read what you were replying to, let me help by refocusing you on the point that individual was making:

Name one thing the US Government has done in your lifetime that you support.

You'll note that the things you listed are probably not in your life time. 1970 would put you at a minimum of 54 meaning a 32% chance. Not that I particular care about your age. Just refocusing you on the actual spirit and letter of the statement. And the fact that 1970 being your most recent example should be what concerns you even more.

You'll also note I agreed with you that they were important. just not as important as ensuring the quality of life of the average american which has declined economically far too much in the last 6 decades.

Perhaps, but I'm not the one who stepped on a rake in their blind support for genocidal, anti-worker, corporate hacks because someone had the audacity to call the spade a spade.

If you want warm and fuzzies from people like me stop supporting the genocidal, anti-worker candidates and trying to tell people they're worth getting out of bed for because they'll protect your minority group of the month depending on how the wind blows.

Never said you were rude. does pointing out the logical conclusion of the information you linked and how it related to my point upset you? it certainly should. it upsets me. Its why I pointed it out to you to begin with.

So exactly what were you trying to discuss with me in this thread. I was simply informing you that ACA is no legislative success even in wealthy and cooperative blue states.

the points make themselves. the rest is just for funnies. next time you want to be a arrogant ass make sure you have the chops and moral position to back it up.

You have a very specific definition of any legislative success.

Not particularly, as I said I believe some of those bills were decent successes, but they wont win votes from working americans. When it comes to winning votes and enacting change you need to accomplish demonstrable improvements to our lives. And yes that list will continuously change as more and more things are improved. That's a good thing.

Do you have something more recent that 1939?

smile do you? do you see the problem with the fact you need to go back that far to find anything that helps American's that you think I'll accept. The list I mentioned above isn't some unattainable goal. many countries already have accomplished these things for their people.

Maybe you should look into what that bronze plan actually covers. if you have any real medical issues you're definitely losing of a minimum 15% of your income in just medical expenses. Never mind taxes, food, housing, transport, clothing, saving for retirement (which this hypothetical person almost certainly can't do on 61k). Never mind the idea of having your own place, a family, etc.

But I guess you think people should just work just so they can pay medical bills. :shrug:

Wow! and americans day to day finances havent improved at all! Imagine doing all that and still having people struggling... I wonder....

Lets go down the list shall we?

CHIPs act: surprise a bipartisan corporate give away.
American Rescue Plan Act: corporate give away mixed with one time stimulus for americans.
Inflation Reduction Act: I actually liked this bill mostly too bad it does nothing for the majority of americans w/ respect to inflation and cost of living.
Student loan forgiveness: oh you mean the thing biden has slow walked, only managing to clear 9% in 4 years, and is the direct architect of causing? oh you mean the man who also resumed payments for them despite record inflation?
Defense of Marriage Act: yup wonderful, good job dems! the only thing that doesn't negatively impact your corporate donors you got done!
Honoring our PACT Act: Oh you mean health care in america is fucking horrible? color me surprised, yet another excuse to not actually fix our health care system.

seriously man. think about these things before you post them. I'm not opposed to many of these bills but NONE of them improve the general well being of the american worker or their families.

Do people still need to worry about their health coverage if they lose their jobs? Yes? oh.
Do people still need to work multiple jobs to make ends meet in many areas? Yes? oh.
Do people still have no protections for medical, family, vacation? Yes? oh.
Do people still have to go into massive debt for an education? Yes? oh.
Do sexual orientations still have no protections within the workplace? yes? oh.

Until the democrats begin addressing these issues for working americans they won't have the support of myself or individuals like me. Don't even get me fucking started on the widespread genocidal support, moral bankruptcy, and graft within the party.
