The payment scams aren’t going towards food in any way. The tradeoff you’re suggesting doesn’t exist.

Wow, how did they find two 10-year-olds to pose with horrible breast reduction scars across their chest to pose for this commercial I keep seeing in Ohio?

Hi, Lemmy.World Community Team here.

I’ve reviewed the last 4 days of mod actions on !politicalmemes. I see nothing egregious that would warrant action from admins.

Good luck with your posting.

You’re whining that people complain about censorship?

Important government secrets will be strictly separated from personal/civilian devices. The only classified information being transmitted by personal devices is the location and human knowledge of the owners.

He doesn’t. He may serve Russian interests at times, but he’s not a direct report the way Tim Pool and many of our government elected officials are.

And they conveniently ignore everything that doesn’t align with what they want to believe.

This tattoo’s gonna gain so much value. To the moon!

Upvote because it’s a good meme or downvote because discussion on the instance will be heavily censored?

I like the idea of Android stealing enough market share that Apple is forced to be more open.

The one that really blew my mind was the Find My network. Android tried to cooperate with Apple, and Apple stalled and dragged it out until Android gave up.

The effect was that Android got “Find My” about a year later than it would have otherwise, and the networks won’t be compatible. But isn’t Find My network compatibility relatively better for Apple? At worst there are places where Android and Apple devices split market share evenly. In most of the world, Android has the larger network/market share. Apple was willing to sacrifice that win to stall Android rolling out a major feature for a year.

legally required to increase the shareholders’ value.

First, this isn’t really true. Corporations are not required to increase shareholder value at any cost. Second, even if it were true, why would you still excuse those actions?

The 2015 propaganda campaign was a thing to watch though. I expected it to be more of a historical landmark by now. Instead, we’re still living it.

Disagree. I prefer XML for config files where the efficiency of disk size doesn’t matter at all. Layers of XML are much easier to read than layers of Json. Json is generally better where efficiency matters.

Why do you assume this has anything to do with a supply/demand curve? Because that’s the first thing you were taught in Econ 101 and it stuck?

In reality, most people aren’t that sensitive to small changes in price. And the demand drop is not instant. It might take months or years. Execs make the decision to raise the price, they don’t see the demand drop off immediately, and they instantly absolve themselves of any responsibility for the effects of their price increase. After all, there was hardly any demand drop in the quarter in which they made the change.

Look at say, Coca-Cola. You could easily double the price in five years and the price is negligible enough that most people won’t even notice. (Oh wait, they did this.)

It was the reddest of flags. Georgia does not have laws that allow them to take action for red flags.

The kid didn’t even beat his wife, which is usually the accepted standard if they did have red flag laws.

They’re charging the dad again here.

I don’t think that’s appropriate for every case, but when the parent provides access to an AR-15 with a child that has shown clear signs of mental instability… yeah, that’s negligent homicide.

you really shouldn’t be using variables with the same name but different capitalization in the same sections of code anyway.

It’s a standard convention. Notice step #3 here: https://scottlilly.com/learn-c-by-building-a-simple-rpg-index/lesson-08-1-setting-properties-with-a-class-constructor/

Edit: Step #4 is a different standard convention that also applies here.

It turns out that the easiest thing to program isn’t always the best application design.

Nope. Completely different.

Case is often used to distinguish scope. Lowercase is local while uppercase is public. “Name = name” is a pretty standard convention, especially in constructors.

There is a ubiquitous use case in programming. There is not in the file system.
