Right? That's exactly why I give my business automations names like SupaWubbaDubbaHappyTimeAuthyWauthyTeeHeeSecurityWorkflow.

A company, that not only immensely obstructs transparency, but also falls into the jurisdiction of foreign / non-EU institutions.

In the US, companies contracted by the federal government must comply with data storage location requirements that DO keep the data strictly within their territory and under national jurisdiction. i believe this falls under FedRAMP regulations. I'm 95%+ certain that major EU countries have equivalent policies (probably even better ones, considering the GDPR and so forth).

That correction aside, I completely agree with the larger concern here.

Protons. As in protons, How many. On a weird logarithmic scale with 7 in the middle, of course.

Yeah, that's exactly what we should be concerned about. These problems aren't going to get better by killing people.

The mother of a gradeschool friend was at Kent State in May 1970 when the national guard shot and killed 4 students and wounded 9 others. She said it was appalling and horrifying.

Are we really going back to this shit? I guess this country learned nothing.

I'll call them whatever you want -- Kekse, galletas, piškotki -- if you help us get rid of the fascists.

But personally I'll always associate the word 'biscuit' with this.

My partner has been learning Norwegian and some of the reactions from native speakers lean toward the red.

It's not about difficulty (it's one of the easier languages for English speakers), but moreso that they believe it's pretty useless outside of Norway lol

My actual favorite is electric guitar followed by violin, and I'll gladly expound, but those have already been mentioned.

So for this comment I'll go with handpan drum. Those sound so amazing and soothing to me.
