I only just st noticed how many notes think these are either fake or dead, or that the second is even just a fish head. These are in fact completely real, intact baby swordfish, and while it's impossible to determine if these are alive, all fish can survive out of water at least long enough to be shown like this. They just don't much care for it.

The FTC Votes Unanimously to Enforce Right to Repair

The move follows an executive order issued last week by the White House urging the agency to secure consumers' rights to fix their own gadgets.

DURING AN OPEN commission meeting Wednesday, the Federal Trade Commission voted unanimously to enforce laws around the Right to Repair, thereby ensuring that US consumers will be able to repair their own electronic and automotive devices.

The FTC’s endorsement of the rules is not a surprise outcome; the issue of Right to Repair has been a remarkably bipartisan one, and the FTC itself issued a lengthy report in May that blasted manufacturers for restricting repairs. But the 5 to 0 vote signals the commission’s commitment to enforce both federal antitrust laws and a key law around consumer warranties—the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act—when it comes to personal device repairs.

The vote, which was led by new FTC chair and known tech critic Lina Khan, also comes 12 days after President Joe Biden signed a broad executive order aimed at promoting competition in the US economy. The order addressed a wide range of industries, from banks to airlines to tech companies. But a portion of it encouraged the FTC, which operates as an independent agency, to create new rules that would prevent companies from restricting repair options for consumers.

HOLY

SHIT

[actualaster]

?!?!?!?!?!

Literally every single warranty I have ever read says “lol void if u tamper w/ this shit”

And you’re telling me that’s a rule violation the manufacturer can be reported for?!?!

[Image ID: a screenshot of a portion of text from the article linked in the first post that reads “the FTC is so encouraging the public to report warrant abuse–as defined by the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act of 1975, which prohibits manufacturers from telling consumers that a warranty is voided if the product has been altered or tampered with in someone other than the original manufacturer.” The text from “which prohibits” through to the end is underlined with red.

Yep! Those “warranty void if removed” stickers are not legally enforceable in the US. Companies still put them on because unfortunately most people don’t know about this. Best advice I ever heard for if you need to return a product that you’ve removed the stickers from:

Persistently insist that the stickers never were there. Act confused if you’re asked. You got the product like this, sticker-free. The eye of the law doesn’t see the stickers, so you didn’t either.

I’m real happy that this man is out there living his dream life. All he wants is marvel at nature and writhe in pain for a camera, and he gets to do both as his job.

I always love seeing this comic because it interprets Tumblr as a gigantic theater ruled by absolute chaos where sometimes somebody just stands up on their chair and shouts and we all pay attention

with both covid-19 + the primaries going on I’ve heard ppl say some truly awful stuff about “boomers” as if all old people are rich conservative white men who deserve to be wiped out, so I drew up this graphic feat. stories of some of the elders I’ve met through work and activism.

“boomer” is not a coherent class. now more than ever it is imperative that the working class stands together, while celebrities sing silly songs in their mansions we must organize to meet community needs, regardless of age we are all comrades in the same fight!

[spacedumpster]

it’s kinda funny

a bunch of people left this place for twitter, making twitter even more of an unreadable, miserable hellscape than it already was

but i’m looking at tumblr now and my timeline is like a silent oasis of dog pictures.  no discourse in sight.  no gullible 19 year olds drunk on terf juice screaming at you for calling yourself ‘queer,’ no histrionic kin drama, no sheltered zoomers screeching about how problematic fanfiction is the moral downfall of society as we know it, just lots of pictures of cute animals because all the worst aspects of this site migrated with the porn ban and now it’s kind of nice to just look at some cats or whatever

to anyone still here, i hope y’all are doing well

[spacedumpster]

this website is such a ghost town now.  where am i supposed to go to read people yelling about steven universe now?
