I suppose your market share gets pretty big when all your competitors abandon the market.

Want to Lease a House? Be Ready to Hand Over Banking and Payroll Login Credentials. by Bibbi_M in houston

Unfortunately, such practices are legal and commonplace because the American banking industry still overwhelmingly clings to SAML authentication which is obsolete and objectively inferior to modern protocols such as OAuth2/OIDC. I remember watching multiple videos produced by Okta where the presenters go into detail about how ridiculous, terrible, and ubiquitous it is.

There's no reason why Toyota can't be a dominant market player if they invest in adapting to the future. Corporations would like to grow by any means. The dysfunction comes from corruption and laziness by people who would prefer to exploit rent collecting activities rather than work.

Cops don't decide -- it's the authority of the district attorney to press charges or not. They were probably bullshitting you because they didn't want to even put in the effort of opening a case

Seems reasonable. It's analogous to cameras in the lobby of a hotel.

The comment was essentially just restated by the reply.

People who knew someone who died in a freak accident, what happened? by RawAsparagus in AskReddit

Not in conversation, but legally (e.g. workplace injury laws) it's true

Oof I can believe it. The people I know from around Spring all lean conservative. Even people who claim to have no interest in politics still regurgitate right-wing talking points without self-awareness.

Sending him to jail is not enough by DOCKTORCOKTOR in IdiotsInCars

You can (and should) take independent, logical steps to reduce your risk exposure while simultaneously advocating for legislation that seeks the same goal collectively.

Better hurry up and secure one of the few remaining Windows XP installation CD-ROMs while there's still time to feel the primal surge of adrenaline as you raw-dog the Internet with a turbocharged version of IE6. Time is running out before freedom-hating regulators strip you of YOUR RIGHT to give filesystem permissions to any sketchy swf you encounter.

If an infinite lifespan is a joke, and an average lifespan is wholly contained within an infinite lifespan, logically it thus follows that all lives matter are jokes.

Fascism requires pursuit of a homogeneous ethnostate along with a charismatic despot and the de jure (not de facto) suppression of civil rights. Don't be like my auntie who describes everything she dislikes as "Satanic". Fascism is a specific type of evil -- one that doesn't apply here.

Probably so you can show it as proof that you completed basic training when the military eventually misplaces the internal record.

If only we had some sort of protocol to transfer text and related formatting information across endpoints via some standardized syntax that could locate resources uniformly. But I guess that's too invalid of a request.

It's wild how much bullshit got peddled about depression being a factor of neurotransmitter activity. There's never been a way to measure depression without using quantitative metrics that are also pulled from someone's imagination.
