How do you imply you're a US company without technically lying about being a British firm? You call your company "U.S. GOLD", you have the motto "All American Software" in all caps, and you fill the loading screen with a giant US flag while playing the Star Spangled Banner and Yankee Doodle.

Counterpoint: we do not, in fact, "all love Chrome". Browsers are a necessary evil, & it's enraging that they've turned into data vampires enabling other data vampires. Chrome is the dominant browser; it's not "loved". Personally, I hate it. (This brought to you by Edge, which isn't much better.)
The US gov wants Google to sell Chrome to stop Google' monopoly in online search. But don't we all love Chrome? ❤️ Why then sell it ? Let me explain, having published the first in-depth research article about this with @zubair-shafiq.bsky.social and others, and recently given a talk about this. 🧵1/9

I have broken my no-Christmas-before-my-birthday rule (it's my rule; I'm allowed to break it) by seeing the absolutely wonderful A Christmas Carol at the Old Vic with m'dear chum @clarem.bsky.social. If you're in London, go and see it! www.thetimes.com/culture/thea...
A Christmas Carol review — John Simm is tremendous in this winter warmer
The actor gives Scrooge depth and vulnerability in a magical revival of the Old Vic’s masterful Dickens adaptation

Until abortion is legal in every state, lets require men to get a mandatory vasectomy until they are proven emotionally mature, financially responsible and ready to be a father.
Wait, what do you mean regulations on men's bodies make you uncomfortable?

A lot of folks are giving up in advance. Capitulating before a single skirmish.
Well, not this old warrior. I’ve seen much worse from the U.S. government in my day. I’m concerned for our country, but not a bit scared of these miscreants. I’m ready to do my part.
