Independent agencies are intentionally created outside of the executive branch. As such, they are not covered by presidential agency. Congress must debate and pass a motion of dismissal, to fire someone.
That's the meaning of "independent".

The employee remains fired, because the one who would enforce whether they may return to work or not, is the one who has illegally fired them.
There's a presidential order, that shouldn't be in effect, being enforced.
Like the police chief firing the plumber, but the police chief also being the landowner and stationing security on the perimeter of their rentee's property.

I have seen a few. Mostly from people who voted for Trump (didn't abstain). They do still agree with the man on a number of things, but two things have caused regret:
- Ukraine. How they didn't see it coming, I dunno.
- Musk. They agree with the purpose, but not the man or process.

A lot of words to say, "the native resolvers are ass".
They want a better thing built in to the platforms we use today, rather than the libraries built to ignore the crap we're handed.

That's hitting a 500 error at the moment.
Any chance you have the magnet link? -

I do know that we recently found that the modern teabag is producing microplastics during the brewing process. So it stands to reason that we are studying something in that area.
Somewhere...

My niece is a ballerina. Literally. She's the current prima donna for the Phillip Island Dance Studio, and performs regularly. She has the classic lightweight build.
She also had her PE teacher say her BMI means she's overweight and should go on a diet.

If you're an Aussie, and you get hit by Meta allowing women to be called objects and queer to be mentally ill (Or inspired by those actions)... Remember, over here, that's a crime. You can report it.

Of the 444 jobs currently offered in my town... 442 "require" a current driver's license. (Including WFH roles.)
So... Guess the disability discrimination is alive and well.

MS Office has switched from opt-in, to opt-out, for scraping your documents for their AI. (Except in the EU)
So, if you care, or if *you do anything business related* using Office, you can now find the opt out...

I believe these come from Brazil's PLC 53/2018, a data protection bill similar to GDPR, with a greater scope. The people in question can order a company not to collect their data. So these banks have told Mozilla not to touch them.

Yuuuuuup.
You're maybe allowed to purge-on-restore, but that's annoying and frustrating, too. And could be challenged legally, because you might be holding identifiying data to notice what to purge.

GDPR also requires deletion from offline backups, and all logs, and getting someone to do that when no one actually gets given the time to field those requests, is where the difficulty comes from.
