Yes

Depends on the extent of how much you’d do and if you’d get noticed, really. Leverage being applied against you or your parents could occur, particularly to or via relatives in China, but only if you’re deemed worth the effort. I wouldn’t take that risk, personally, but that’s a very specific, individual decision.

The US is another matter. Sure you’ll go on a list but everyone’s on a list of one kind or another, we’re both on one for using Lemmy most likely.

Would there be any validity in your parents thinking your concerns about this are getting in the way of improving your own life?

Just when you thought it was safe to trust a biker, something like this happens. Now where will I get my crank and human trafficking?

Say “McDonald’s!” to continue ride

I’m not sure the answers so far get to the gist of the problem- how to create these institutions in balance of power, where they can’t just co-opt or capture one another.

I don’t think it’s possible to prevent one institution from actively deciding to give up and relinquish its responsibilities, without constraining or bolstering them to where they can’t act as balances.

If they want power they find a way.

Considering Booker’s recent pro-genocide votes, maybe don’t rush to get excited about him.

Yoga and athletics-wear company, though that’s broader now. They made it big on stretchy form fitting things made in sweatshops, just as the yoga industry began to boom.

Hundreds of people have already died in CECOT. I wouldn’t be surprised if they put out a hit on him via back channels to gang members in the prison. Hell, they can legally do it now as an official act.

Blame Democrats probably.

Ears!

They’d have to connect to it, and possibly reconnect. That aspect is the issue.

My users aren’t going to figure that out.

Oh no they’ll see I’m watching TNG

They prohibit large amounts of media being streamed, and they reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts for it. Multiple years in, that has not happened.

CloudFlare tunnel with Zero Trust, plus their bot and abuse blocking. Users can get in with the right oauth, plus only allowed from the countries I know they’re in. Then just their username and password on jellyfin.

Given that it obviously won’t happen, I have to wonder which particular thing he’s trying to divert attention from.

kW/kWh aren’t commonly used outside of electrical applications in the US, so people are less readily able to quantify and compare in other contexts. Looking at a variety of natural gas companies’ bills, you’ll get volume multiplied by a therm factor instead of simply using kWh; horsepower for not just cars but even electrical motors and pumps.

I think the average person will have looked at their electricity bill and put the basics together about watts and watt hours. As for comparison with natural gas, I think he didn’t touch on the real metric people then turn to- cost. Depending on the state it can be much cheaper to use gas vs electricity.
