What the fuck are “unregretted user minutes”? I regret every minute any user spends on that site, so it should be zero.
The future is dangerous. Keep going this way so you don’t have to see it.
And twitter. And mastodon. And lemmy ffs, we’re not immune. (I’m doing it right now, in fact.)
You’re going to get to! That’s what they will actually be doing if the class action lawsuits don’t crash them.
Art doesn’t need to know this answer that badly. This fucking guy has taken
I don’t even know what a few of these things are, and I’m not going to look up and see how crazy the doses on everything else are, but based on the ones I do know I can only conclude that this guy is trying to kill himself.
And he’s succeeding, from the sound of it.
You’re asking this in a community that’s specifically about doing piracy. Pretty hard to take your question seriously in this context.
and i figured you’d read what i actually wrote instead of arguing with someone who didn’t exist
Yes, I know all that. The argument I was replying to was that you run out of trees if you use them to make paper without recycling. That argument is false. You’re arguing with points I didn’t make.
No, this isn’t solved by having a whole forest available when you scale up the consumer side too.
You’re seriously underestimating how many trees there are. The only reason we’re losing forest is because of grazing land. That’s clearcutting, where you remove the tree and just destroy it or just burn the whole forest. As a vegetarian I’m obviously not here to defend grazing land, but if you look only at wood and paper production, we absolutely can replace the trees we use with enough time for them to regrow completely.
Doing so devastates ecosystems by turning them into monocultures, but you’re only talking about the replacement rate of trees. We don’t have to worry about the replacement rate of trees, we have to worry about greed for land and environmental impact.
Oh jesus christ. Powerful men do not need weird nerds jumping in front of their bullets. The guy is a fucking shitshow.
Stopped reading at the uncritical use of the word “transgenderism” and the unanalyzed repetition of the falsehood that Budweiser suffered financially from the Dylan Mulvaney thing (it didn’t).
Not sure what fence the author is trying to sit on, but I’ll take my opinion fluff pieces from people who aren’t actively aiding the conservative culture war.
why not just let lose of this crippling desire to align ourselves with some historical identity
Fair enough. Counterpoint: It doesn’t freaking matter what word we use. No matter what the word is, the right will attempt to poison it and stir hatred of it and assign meanings to it that aren’t real. Look at what happened to “woke”. It will keep happening, because the modern right is Fascism, and poisoning language is a fascist tactic that goes back to the very beginning. You call yourself an Anarchist; where on Earth do you live that nobody has negative associations with “Anarchist”.
Use whatever word you want, just use it consistently. Don’t expect it to stay free of propaganda, because they do that to our words on purpose.
Ideas for the new logo? I think he should go with a black-red motif, with lots of right angles.
That’s why they call me Dollar Bill. Because I have one.
I’m confused why backups would even matter. Are the servers physically hosted in Mali and the government seized them?
Because if the government just invalidated the domain, that’s completely different. In that case a server device with everything on it still exists in the same place it always did, it’s just DNS that has changed.
(And yes, I understand that losing the domain name and the certs attached to it would be a big deal, but there’s no data loss, hence no need to pull from backups.)
Lol haven’t seen it yet. I rolled the dice
No. Jesus. It doesn’t cause conequent and proximate injury. The rewards are not redeemed when the card is swiped, so it doesn’t meet the criterion of “proximate” because McDonalds still has many opportunities to void those points before they are used. Swiping a card is not injury. It also isn’t injury because someone would have received the benefit of those points either way, so no actual loss accrues to McDonalds.
Last but not least, their ToS stipulate a requirement that in any legal dispute the parties must participate in arbitration. You know what type of law arbitrators do not handle? Criminal law. Not a crime, even according to McDonalds. Not fraud.
Fuck’s sake, McDonald’s has an army of actual lawyers letting them think they can get away with putting up this fucked-up sign, they don’t need you jumping on the back to help convince everyone to just bend over and take it.
This feels tantalizingly close to the truth.
