Not everyone has gone to jail, but if the govt has your fingerprints it’s easier to get convicted regardless of your innocence.

Clear Blue is like this, but they use your iris scan. You have to scan every time to skip the line. But the TSA precheck just fingerprints you once when you sign up IIRC

e.g. Period tracking apps being used as evidence when prosecuting people who seek abortions

A lot of people have just accepted surviellance for convienience.

People close to me get TSA precheck even though it requires fingerprinting, because “the government already has your fingerprints”

But if they did, why would they need to ask your for them?

People I talk to find it useful for front-end development

such a perfect phone for the price. Wish they made something like it now

Now this is a genuine shower thought

It just takes time. More passionate posters will come. Reddit is mostly ai-generated at this point.

I wish more technically focused communities had a real home here. I’ll google something, and see that the project I’m working on has a dedicated subreddit where someone asked my question. Wish I could see lemmy in my search results.

You’re right. People asking for a comprimise 160 years too late forget the missouri compromise, bleeding kansas, the Lecompton crisis and John Brown’s raids. Slavery and slave states had to continually expand in order to remain economically viable, there was no compromise that slave states could accept, which is why war was necessary. James Buchanon was a Democrat who represented Southern interests, he could not find a compromise because the South could not accept any compromise and remain competitive with the North.

The reason Buchanon is the worst President is because he sees the Civil War coming and tries to set up a Southern victory during his administration.
