He even needed ChatGPT to write his own shitty opinion for him, what a loser.

Itch.io running their own F-droid repo would be a game changer.

The fuckcars community is the last place I expected to see “you can’t regulate this industry because it’s too predatory”, but okay.

Right, so it’s okay when lawyers take the lion’s share of a settlement. Not like the whole point of a settlement is to reimburse the wronged party.

I just said it’s sus, but what is actually objectionable in the bill?

I’m a bit confused.

The California proposal, dubbed the “Protecting Automobile Accident Victims from Attorney Self-Dealing Act,” is slated for the November midterm election. It would require crash victims to keep 75 percent of their total settlement awards, leaving lawyers and hospitals to split the remaining 25 percent.

That… seems totally fine? That “would make it harder for victims to sue after a car crash” in the same way that raising the minimum wage “makes it harder to find a job”.

The text of the bill is here if anyone wants to take a look. I’m reading through it and it seems to deal entirely with fees and contracts. It is a bit sus that Uber’s supporting it, but it’s important to have all the facts.

Trans women aren’t men.

That’s especially weird, since Piefed usually shows comments from crossposts too but didn’t this time!

My instance tells me this post has 25 replies, but I don’t see any. Did something happen?

Everyone clowns on “the customer is always right”, and for good reason, but this kind of situation is actually what the phrase originally meant. In matters of taste, the customer is always right.
