The Uncanny Observer

They have to pay high prices in order to afford eggs for breakfast.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian parents would pay any price if they could have their dead kids back.

It’s impossible for me to feel sympathy for whatever happens to Russians.

If North Korea was anywhere near the size of those other countries, your comment would be a good rebuttal. As far as I’m aware, no other country, save perhaps Palestine, has been bombed as relatively bad as they were.

Carol of the Bells. No other Christmas song goes as hard.

The same way we know what people close to Putin are saying. Spies. Turns out, you offer people a little money, and many of them are more than happy to tell you anything you want to know. They did a test in New York once and found people were willing to give up corporate secrets for a bit of chocolate.

Wait, is your argument here that people in wheelchairs are incapable of exercising? That’s pretty ableist, dude.

So just don’t take the bonus, then? Easy enough. Bonuses aren’t part of your normal wages. They’re given, not owed, not unless you do whatever they say you have to in order to earn them. So if you don’t feel like doing whatever it is that your company demands in order to receive the bonus, then just don’t do it and don’t get the money.

You should probably run miles each month anyway so maybe you won’t die in your sixties from heart disease.

When your plan to get some sweet settlement money doesn’t quite work out.

All in all, not the best get-rich-quick scheme I’ve seen.

Not even that, they can run the training dataset through a bulk image processor to undo it, because the way these things work makes them trivial to reverse. Anybody at home could undo this with GIMP and a second or two.

In other words, this is snake oil.

I haven’t used Evernote since I discovered Obsidian. Combine it with the Git plugin, and my notes are backed up to a private repository and synced to all my devices. There isn’t a lot that Obsidian can’t do, with one plugin or another.

They gave up information to the Swiss government after they got a warrant, and due to the way Proton works, they were only able to give them the IP address so they could arrest the person, who was also Swiss. They didn’t compromise security, because they can’t.

They don’t respond to demands from other governments, and the Swiss government haven’t cooperated with other governments either, so far as anyone knows. In the end, there isn’t really anything the Australian government can do to them if they refuse to create a backdoor for them.

That’s part of the joke, I think. If it’s a repo more than just you use, you would almost never push directly to the main branch.

They know about those deals, but that isn’t usually illegal. Keep in mind Epic themselves do that for their timed exclusives.

Are they, though? I’ve been using Firefox and uBlock Origin for years and I’ve not had an issue other than needing to manually update my filters three times since this started.

Apple apparently doesn’t do backroom deals to stop other people from making app stores. That’s the difference between the two verdicts.

Of course, that’s because Apple just doesn’t allow other app stores at all, but apparently that’s not against the rules.

Those were the wrong civilians. Whoopsie!

I’m slightly surprised. You don’t see many bootlickers on Lemmy. Listen, no matter how much you deepthroat your boss’s footwear, you’re never going to be part of the capitalist class. You’re gonna die a nobody, by your own reckoning, and your heroes are never going to have even cared that you existed.

You poor, sad little man.

If it’s developed with taxpayer dollars, it should not be patented by a corporation. I don’t care what it is we’re talking about. Taxpayer money is supposed to go to improving the lives of Americans, not enriching corporations.
