I think I prefer a system that doesn't have a charisma stat and social skills for this exact reason.

It's amazing that they obviously could have checked this before, but none of his lackeys even thought that maybe this would be the outcome and thus, never checked.

well, one thing is for sure: Streaming makes rewatching far less reliable. There's no telling whether that show you watched 2 years ago is still available.

hm. I find I still rewatch a lot of stuff. But I have a lot of moments where I want to avoid any type of 'challenge' when relaxing, and watching something I already know is a good way to tap into that.

honestly this feels like my typical experience. But especially during sports seasons... at least I'm -assuming- that's what this is indicating.

There are plenty of examples of Kirk getting outclassed too, typically when invited to actual debates.

As far as I'm aware there is a history of Supreme Court rulings saying that while spending money is a form of free speech, it can not be used to infringe on other people's free speech. Supporting laws that would restrict political donations.
Overturning Citizens United might be enough.

We should advocate for industry wide unions, as opposed to facility-by-facility. both can exist but having a union for all cleaning crew, all teachers, all nurses,... That way there's no concerns of competitive disadvantage and no BS such as closing locations that unionized.

As someone who disabled javascript I can predict what'd happen. your apps and websites will mostly be nonfunctional. you'll click the login button and no username/pass prompt will pop up. you'll search for something and it just won't do anything. There won't be a 'non-AI' version of the function.

my assumption would be that you charge the people blocking access for violating the law. If not ICE as a whole, individual agents.
