Congratulations. You just convinced me that totalitarian dictatorships are not a good alternative to capitalism. Oh wait, I already knew that lol.

Why would I bother writing an in-depth explanation of a simple and observable fact. Capitalism is a system that optimises for a single variable. It is self-evident how this means that any time another variable is inversely proportional to p

I could, but if you don't already see what I'm talking about, chances are you'll just tell me climate change isn't real anyway.

Welcome to capitalism. If profit and self-preservation are at odds, profit wins.

Iran and India are trying to see what they can get out of Russia. China is ready to pounce at the smallest sign of weakness. Belarus needs Russia but doesn't want to get dragged into their war. Russia has no allies on the world, only c

Then I just stop visiting the sites that use it, while everyone else will just continue to do so while bitching about not liking it. It's really simple: You either use sites with DRM and thereby accept it, or you don't. There'

What else would "after a year" mean though? People don't usually have COVID for that long.

It's really dumb, but that's not on the browsers that implement it, but on the websites that use it. As you pointed out, content will still be ripped so, once again, this only serves to inconvenience the users. But browsers won&#x

"Less than 20% of hospitalised COVID-19 patients symptom free after a year" should work; it's easy to infer that "after a year" refers to their hospitalisation anyway. If that is still too long: "Less than 20%

Dunno. I'm of said opposite ideology and whenever I mention how I watch anything conservative, I almost always get a surprised response like "why would you watch that crap?" So at least from my personal filter bubble, it does

I think you missed the sarcasm in my comment. I know non-binary people exist. I happen to be one of them myself.

not entirely correct; if you both earn and spend all of your crypto directly as cryptocurrency, then you can fairly easily just remain entirely anonymous. This just doesn't apply to most people, at least most who do legal business.

Yes, but that will either cancel out to the average in group B matching the total average, or it won't, meaning the average of B is significantly different from the total average.

If you want to be a bit paranoid, but not entirely unrealistic, you might see a connection between Germany's aversion to nuclear power and our reliance on Russian gas. I wouldn't go as far as to believe that Russia has infiltrated

Yea but then you need to be really careful not to let the user sneak in any PII anywhere; say a user sets their full name + address as their username; they can now request that you delete this data.

I'm guessing there's technically the chance that a title might be problematic too, like if it contained private information or illegal speech. Although in that case, I wonder why they don't nuke the information completely.

I think the problem goes a bit deeper than that. From an IP perspective, I think it's reasonable to consider that training an AI on some form of work is using said work to build a new one, just like it would be if it was manually copie
