Aaahh capitalism. This is what business school graduates call “innovation” and “smart”.

But seriously, I’m sorry that happened to you. It’s predatory, abusive, and wrong.

This is the correct answer.

Edit /etc/hosts and add

127.0.0.1 example.com

so when you type example.com into the address bar it goes to 127.0.0.1.

I hope there will be no compensation for miners when the supply’s hard limit has been reached. To remove the profit motive completely would be excellent imo.

Great meme, even better post description.

Great things have their start like that, like U.S Cyber Command!

Is Ubuntu enshittifying?

Not because, no. I think it’s greed.

This is like the “there are some responsible assault rifle owners” argument. Although corporations are not required by law to maximize investor returns, CEO “compensation” is often tied to “performance” so the incentives of those with the most decision power make it de facto required to maximize returns to investors. That’s why Musk needed to convince his board of directors (who are there to represent the best interests of the share holders) to approve some ridiculous pay package. His “performance” in their eyes is proportional to share holder profits so if they’re happy, he gets his absurd pay package, which is why his incentive is to maximize profits for shareholders by any means necessary.

It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it.

Why are they all trying to get labor for free then? They love free!

Thanks!

Thanks. What is the built-in NLP for Lineage OS? Maybe I’m not using the right keywords but I couldn’t find out via search.

Shiiiiiit. I’ve never heard of NLP. How can I check which one my phone uses?

Do you think this one is privacy respecting?

Isn’t this only Google Maps though?

That’s horrible, it shouldn’t happen to anyone. We need more awareness and more trauma therapy, especially for children. Fortunately Israeli victims at least have a platform to be heard and sufficient resources available for treatment, but Palestinians do not. I’m not sure if there’s even a single fully functioning hospital left in Gaza, even after Israel turns back on the electricity, water, and gas. If they ever do.

James Gordon, a US psychiatrist … said recovery was possible even in severely traumatised children, but only if the outside world did not give up on them.

Hmmm, thanks.

That’s good news! How much was the trigger incl shipping?

Lol yea. They also maintain control over their big corpos and that must be threatening to the 9 corporations in a trench coat that the U.S. calls a government. Still, the world doesn’t need any more adversarial relationships, thank you very much U.S.A.

U.S. lawmakers can’t force anything on foreign corporations.

If the bill passes in the House and Senate and is signed into law by President Biden, TikTok would eventually be dropped from app stores in the US if its owner doesn’t sell. It also would lose access to US-based web-hosting services.

ByteDance would be banned from the U.S. market and lose it’s webhosting on U.S. servers.

Also, what’s with the “foreign adversary” status of China?

Thanks for the update <thumbs_up>
