The power to tax is the power to destroy

Tech first north korea

No, it means the average is too low.

This is unbridled greed, nothing more.

so you memorized them, you just didn't explicitly do it.

What would you want for user friendly? Anything powerful will have a learning curve, that is a fact. The basics of blender usage, i.e. the mechanical aspects of the modeling components minus geonodes, are learned in an afternoon.

Everything else is an understanding of what you, the user, wants. Translating what you want into thing you see on the computer is something that can't be learned quickly.

I excluded geonodes because geonodes are best thought of as just a (simple?) programming language with all the faults and foibles of a programming language.

Unfortunately the lawyers did argue and it's legal. They really dug in to the wording and not the spirit of the law

What are the other competing browsers? There's chrome(and the derivatives), safari, firefox? safari exists only because of ios lockin. Aren't most other browsers an increasingly smaller share? Genuine question.

I don't think volunteering is going to cut it. Big orgs have big money and public commons are just targets to be controlled exploited.

My guy, the vast majority of political violence is committed by the right. It's not zero from the left, but it is much less.

I'm currently in that spiral. It is not pleasant knowing every month makes it harder to get back in

Maybe if all of those companies hadn't paid large sums of money to one of the most famous child sex traffickers, their cries of "think of the children" wouldn't be so creepy

It doesn't work well. The searches are wrong and uninformative much of the time.

The google app store isn't even that safe. This is all just stupid

They actively detest empathy!

My guy, congress can't even remove valid bad actors who openly lie to and threaten them. They will never fix any problems except their "light" pocket book

Stores will never publish anything like that. Why would they give consumers more informatian.

I think some folks want a legitmate personal assistant/secretary like ceo's and wealthy people have but ai. I think that's a good goal. Modern cells and pdas kinda fell short of "your own literal secretary" and I think people want that. Still we should continue pushing the boundaries beyond that.

the deepstate has power because they will literally kill you if you don't and that's not the worst option. The deepstate will honeytrap, hack, blackmail, or otherwise destroy your life to get what "it" wants. People caring more isn't going to do anything if the Congressman doesn't want it known that he likes easy access to money and other illegal things.

I read somewhere that it's not a clean room rewrite but rather it started off as a reverse engineering.

This is the doommongering coming to pass. Did it happen overnight? No! But you just provided the excuse! "gee see nothing bad came to pass. We can just use that tool"

We no longer live in a civilized society

Because that's an acceptable loss and better costs more!

So if someone doesn't use something they must delete instead of letting it rot?

You can say porn. It's an adult website

Government funded!

An attempt no doubt to extenguish a standard google doesn't control

The weight gain in the us compared to the rest of world is undoubtedly related to the callous disregard corporations posess for life in general, let alone the subtle things like microbiomes and fungi that shape our ecosystem

so datacenters should be allowed to come into communities, consume their resources and barely hire the local populace?

Why shouldn't permits be withheld on ethical grounds? Isn't that just giving permission for companies to be unethical and get away with it?
