People generally say that, but then they shove their politics in our faces whenever they have the opportunity.

> The real risk for American broadcasters is not that dissent will be visible. It is that audiences will start assuming anything they do not show is being hidden

Kinda daft not to assume this has been the case for a long time already

Thankfully, the government doesn't steal a car away from a person who is unfit to drive cars yet.

Maybe you should think about why a company like Valve could have never been founded in the EU instead.

They banned Russia Today EU-wide.

An LLC will cost you much more money. It’s a great pay cut.

This comes from the same website that tells you that the average person commits a thousand crimes every day and that prosecuting criminals is therefore meanie mean.

In Spain the fines are like 60k for data protection violations, no matter how small you are, and if you’re self employed, you can’t declare bankruptcy and you have to pay the fine with your own personal assets.

Big platforms and media are only good if they try to move the populace to the progressive, neoliberal side. Otherwise we need to put their executives in jail.

I reported a few times to the owner of archive.is/archive.today that he was hosting dox of a friend and he never cared. So, too fucking bad that he's the one getting doxxed now. A bit of karma.

Wow wow wow... wait a moment... I thought HN agreed that the idea of software patents was ludicrous... what happened here that everybody agrees in this case that this was theft??

The government says yes. In fact, knowing the government, they probably get a huge surplus from my taxes. What makes you say no?

What do you mean freeloading? Do you know how many taxes do you pay to have a vehicle, gas, etc?

That means there should be 0 of them in Germany.

Ask Canada.

Don’t worry, the situation will drastically improve with the new plan of importing thousands of Indians into the EU.

Who’s paying for that? Certainly not the users (yet).

Are you really comparing the energy necessary to read something to taking a photo and having an ai read it for you. You are not comparing zero energy to some energy, you are comparing a whole lot of energy to some energy.

Any AI app worth its salt allows you to upload a photo of something and it processes it flawlessly in the same amount of time. This is absolutely worthless teather.

Educate us, tell us when did we vote for the commission and the likes of von der Leyen. (If your answer is "you didn't vote for it, but you voted for someone who voted for someone who voted for it in a secret ballot" I am going to chuckle)

Hell, Belgium is basically a narcostate at this point.

Why is that useless as opposed to what most of us do for work? I think you guys have a weird sense of how useful the average job is, or how much the average job contributes to society at large. At least this made a lot of money I guess.

Why does that anger you? Democracy is fundamentally unable to solve such issues.

I understand this kind of people is allergic to “per capita”, but really, showing a list of consumption by region when the regions are of such different sizes is next to worthless.

The wrong rabbit hole of finding a pre installed app pushing politics to be icky.

It's so bad that phones come with a "Samsung Global Goals" app to push the UN ideology.

>The Samsung Global Goals app is a, CSR initiative partnering with the UNDP to promote 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, fight inequality, and fix climate change by 2030.

Exactly. It’s his parents fault.

Crazy to me that someone would run a website where you pay for every request you receive, instead of a fixed monthly rate. It’s an obvious recipe for disaster - crossing the wrong guy would cost you dearly. Or just a crawler running amok.

The tremendously, villainy evil of getting money for a service.

Red Hat created hard dependencies on systemd in all of the popular software they develop to ensure its adoption.
