My son asked for a PS5 for Christmas I said no “Son, PlayStation is made by an evil corporation built on worker exploitation” I got him another electronic gift instead - an EU-approved USB-C cable He opened it with visible disgust Then something utterly shocking happened My wife’s boyfriend Arnold got him the PlayStation my son wanted “Thank you uncle Arnold” my son hugged him for almost a minute I pulled my wife aside and explained that her lover is undermining our values She mumbled “at least he got him a real gift” The morning after, while my son was still asleep, I took his console and went to the store Thanks to the wonderful EU consumer protection law, I was able to get a full cash refund of €549 Then I bought a gift for my son that he truly deserves €549 worth of carbon offset credits When I came home my son was crying looking for his PS5 I smiled and showed him the carbon certificate He started shaking and cried even more Being a good parent means teaching your child European values And I know my son will thank me for it in the future

When I worked at Google, anytime someone emailed me a simple question I'd reply: "Hmm, let's set up a recurring bi-weekly about this, loop in some folks from legal, and put some OKRs around it." I was promoted 5 times in 7 years.

@sanzay The rationale by the government in terms of why Tiktok was banned can also be applied to "the internet" in general. Where do we draw the line? I think that's scary.

I'm happy TikTok is banned unlike many who might have their valid reasons. Would love to hear them.

As far as my information goes TikTok does not have a cache server in Nepal What does this mean? All internet traffic is international traffic which means $ going out of country for post you view. All other major OTT's have server in Nepal. TikTok has no skin in the game.

Hello #Nepaltwitter ! Do you know any organization in Nepal that provides tuition scholarships for talented Nepali girls (secondary school) in Nepal?
