Most of the fix should be much simpler. Pay them each $600k, indexed to inflation.
That should make them pretty resistant to bribery. Your quality of life really doesn’t improve much past that $600k point, even if you’re maintaining two houses. (And the justices aren’t representatives. They don’t need a second house.)
But yes, their tax returns should be public as well.
Epic can only compete because they’ve few users and are willing to operate at a near loss
Bullshit. Epic’s loses are in paying for exclusives and giving away games while ruining their PR.
Steam could operate at 15% if they wanted to. But… why would they do that?
Especially on mobile.
Any time you see the word “Blockchain” substitute “distributed public database” instead. And then consider if the distributed part contributes in any way.
And if it did smell like weed near the MRI place, you know what I’d suspect? That’s a venn diagram with cancer patients in the middle.
You really want to crack down on cancer patients?
Its Ubuntu 24.04. When I started it, it took quite awhile and then said “there as a problem, please log out”.
Now that I’ve got it started (where I’m posting from now), it still refuses to arrange my monitors. And I have no idea what this 5th, 13.3" monitor is supposed to be.
It looks like my issues are related to this hardware. I guess that’s understandable. I thought this hardware would be transparent to the OS, and apparently it’s not.
If I hit apply here, it will fail and put them back in a line. I’ll also get around 4 fps and no cursor on the additional monitors.
I installed a fresh copy of, I believe, Debian. Wayland, for some reason, couldn’t handle 4 monitors, with one above the other three.
Not the issue I expected on a fresh install. Oh, and the biggest issue I had with Windows was copied straight into Linux. I want my (single) taskbar on a monitor that isn’t my primary.
I’m currently back to Windows. It was already going to be a rough transition, and missing the ideas I was looking for while also adding complications just hasn’t made it worth it.
Turns out you can’t just do everything you want with 45% to barely 50% of the seats. Especially when you’re the big tent party of everyone sane.
You think West Virginia was ever going to vote against coal? They did more than I would have expected.
Mumble is another strong, open source, self-hosted option.
Oh that’s not what he left her. Still requires treatment.
You don’t need to read them to sell them.
Foreign AND domestic, you say?
If Lemmy had the numbers Reddit does, we’d have more bots. I expect our admins are more responsive and more willing to take risks (like banning legit users when they’re a false positive for a bot). But the APIs available also make bots easier.
The longer term solution is probably a paid instance and/or identify verification. A one-time fee of $5-15 would significantly hinder bots and help the fediverse to be sustainable. It means bans stick much better, and slows cheap bots from having infinite attempts to achieve indistinguishably.
Identity verification comes with its own problems, but they may be workable. People don’t want to post under their real names, but that information doesn’t need to be revealed. It could be possible to have regional instances that verify and publish only your general location, such as state or county.
Or his initial testimony was truthful, and he just didn’t want to see the guy executed.
You’ll hide them, maybe. The threats aren’t the big problem here.
You’re not going to publicly humiliate any potential school shooters into not doing so. You might, forever, get innocent kids harassed and harmed.
Kids say things. They’re in the school 180 days a year and their companions are 25 11-year-olds who are likely to report them for it, legit or not.
Trying to target these kids with stochastic terrorism and bullying isn’t the solution. Though I know cops love to bully.
The guy who came forward and recanted his testimony? I guess no one should ever do that again if they’re gonna be found guilty of murder for it
It’s hard for me to explain to people the unique tier that Olive Garden (and separately Pizza Hut) existed in.
There were many nicer Italian places than Olive Garden. It wasn’t pretentious at all, but it was nice and ubiquitous. Maybe a little better than PF Changs today? (Not that I’m very familiar with PF Changs). No one would laugh at you for taking a date there.
Pizza Hut was more casual by far, largely because you’d have kids playing arcade games and whatnot. Pizza Hut was more family oriented, but still more classy than most things we have today.
Maybe Texas Roadhouse is closer to accurate.
When all your planes come back with bullet holes at points A, B, and C, where should you add additional armor?
