Abbreviation
CCP (common) CPC (official)
Did you know the US’s actual abbreviation is “USA”? Yet nobody says that saying “US” means you know nothing about the USA.
Europe didn’t start the last century as a feudal backwater with 3 centuries of imperialists extracting its wealth.
Let’s not be hasty now. I’m pretty sure that describes describes Poland and the Balkans, but now Poland is flourishing and the Balkans are
China clearly wears the pants in that relationship.
You have to eat it as-pictured, like it’s served on a plate at a restaurant. You have to eat it in a quick enough period that the restaurant asks you to leave so other customers can come. You can’t add your own sauce/flavourings, that’s gauche and this is a 7-figures restaurant.
For $1M you’d be a fool not to.
You’d think that instead of communism that would make it capitalism, but instead it just makes it capitasm.
It’s also made up. People keep anthropomorphising Sam Altman, as if everything he says isn’t just designed to either pump up OpenAI stocks or position himself better for salary/compensation or exit strategy.
“Sam Altman says-” is about as credible as “ChatGPT says”.
You know, that old statue was probably painted - not just the bare monochrome brown you see now. Old statues were more ephemeral than you’d think.
Why do you think Republicans will expand their majorities? Polls indicate it’ll be a bloodbath in favour of Dems.
But one side wants to give you health care
Well, part of one side. There are Dem politicians who either don’t support M4A or only support it when it clearly has no chance of succeeding and thus their support will be irrelevant, dropping that support when it starts mattering.
Now I want to know the metaphorical post equivalent of chlorine trifluoride. Maybe the Israel/Palestine situation?
I’m not the person you replied to, I’m looking forward to www.arcan-fe.com reaching 1.0, and it’s capable of replacing X11.
It’s not exactly the same thing as X11 or Wayland, but Bjorn Stahl has clearly put a lot of thought into it’s design and Arcan is something I actually want, which is more than I can say of Wayland. Wayland destroyed WMs and is worse in several ways, and the technical discussions around Wayland basically don’t exist. Usually it’s just “X11 bad therefore Wayland good”, or “if you don’t like Wayland than go fork X”, or “Wayland is the most used therefore is best” (which is a really stupid argument from people who aren’t using Microsoft Windows).
Working for time is standard because working for a production quota was too easily gameable by the employer as it was used to pay workers less than a survivable wage and then claim it’s their fault for not working hard enough. It’s not antiquated.
You better be good at hitting an erratically-moving high-speed target then, because if you miss (or even hit but after its momentum will carry it into blast radius of you) then you’re dead anyway.
Temperature control seems to have so much delay that it seesaws wildly and isn’t actually useful in practice. I couldn’t get mine to boil eggs without it stopping the boil constantly, unless I set it to 160°+ IIRC.
It’s Lemmy.ml, where the mods are tankies.
IoT could be great, but can’t be created by capitalism. If you hand e.g. Town Planning to the Ku Klux Klan and they just use it to screw over black people, that doesn’t mean town planning is bad, it means the KKK are bad and shouldn’t be trusted with jack shit.
The problem with the IoT is that the convenience/feature gains are marginal and commodifiable, whereas the gains from selling data are massive and direct to the manufacturer. Also there’s every incentive to lock down your ecosystem and avoid compatibility with competitors, and there’s no incentive to invest in security either.
It might not have been shitty copper. Ea Nasir might have just had a hobby collecting Karen clay tablets.
I was expecting a cat. Plz fix.
This is why I think the US is facing terminal decline - this is like Austria-Hungary or the last King Louis before the French revolution. The problem isn’t any one problem, it’s the meta-problem of the inability to fix problems, and the inability to fix the inability to fix problems.
