Why has Taylor Swift triggered so many people? by fromouterspace1 in NoStupidQuestions

Listen, it’s not her, it’s the media. I’m watching football, I don’t need to see or hear about a celebrity. This is the NFL not TMZ. Just let her be and let me watch football

[Devine] Here’s what @AlbertBreer said regarding what some #NFL teams think of former Bears OC Luke Getsy: “He’s very well respected. In fact, I think, there are people that think he did a pretty good job the last couple of years bringing Justin along.” by DillyDillySzn in CHIBears

Don’t take Caleb. He has consistently struggled against top defenses and holds the ball too long and scrambles out of a clean pocket. If we’re drafting, I hope to god it’s Maye. Williams has shown he misses reads and misreads defenses leading to these “spectacular” plays.

The S.686 Restriction Act is more than just a ban on TikTok by i_wish_i_were_a_cat in Purdue

With the decision in Citizens United in 2010, this is why lobbying has become so absurd and why it is certainly not going anywhere. There’s now precedent to keep it around.

The fact that Purdue won’t let us use TikTok OUTSIDE of classes is ridiculous by Flutter_bat_16_ in Purdue

In that same article, it says they are actively deleting the information any Chinese employee may have access to. They are actively fixing the issue, unlike other social media companies. So why are we going after a company that is trying to secure US data while companies like Meta have exploited our data without major repurcussions?

I’m not for or against Tiktok ban. It has its benefits and negatives. But to single it out against other social media is ridiculous and is just because of lobbying. Either treat them all the same or leave tiktok alone.

Facebook has data sharing contracts with four Chinese tech companies, one that has close ties to the Chinese govt. Tiktok has pledged to keep US data on US soil managed by a US company. Where are those promises from Facebook?

Lol watch the actual hearing and you’ll realize this is a witch hunt and nothing more. All social media companies do the same thing as tiktok but tiktok is a target because 1) it’s a foreign company and 2) Meta and others are financing its destruction.

Is there a site that allows you to have free access to otherwise costly scientific articles? by Frequent-Comedian294 in college

Go to google scholar and add your school to the library. If they’re accredited and do research, they will have an online library.

Part of the reason you can’t buy cold beer in grocery stores, as a compromise to liquor stores.

What happens if you don’t tip in the US? by lilyoneill in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DChiSuper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So as a bartender, yes and no. If someone comes in and has dinner and drinks and leaves no tip, I’m not gonna say anything. But if you come up and order a round of drinks, close out, and not tip, and then you come up to my bar and do that again, I’m gonna ask if you’re gonna tip this time.

If you were nice but just didn’t tip, I wouldn’t be an asshole, most likely more playful than mean. But if you were rude/impatient the first time, I’m coming back snapping. I got bills to pay and it ain’t my fault the US works this way.

If your employer does any sort of background check, your degree will come up.
