That’s an interesting plan to fix the upcoming agricultural labour shortage after the mass deportations…

Seems like the erosion of the middle class isn’t enough to break out the guillotines so the upper class is next. The ultra wealthy need new people to squeeze more capitalism points out of!

My face is too good looking to be eaten by the face eating leopards!

Encrypted data. Could be backups of important service details in case all their servers are seized, leaked or sensitive data they are holding as leverage, or a private porn collection. Nobody knows until they release a decryption key.

Yeah I suppose World War 2 wouldn’t have happened if everyone just sat back and let Germany conquer all of Europe instead. They would have stopped at that right? 🤷

It’s convenient timing that Google Chrome is removing support for ad blocking plugins like uBlock right as Premium sneaks ads back in… 🙄

Just going to leave this here with proof that Elmo said cars would be fully driving themselves by 2018: https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/autonomous-driving/timeline-of-tesla-self-driving-aspirations-a9686689375/

For a rational person, absolutely not. For a sociopathic billionaire, absolutely. Elon probably doesn’t give a fuck about the USA, even if it sank into the ocean tomorrow he would still have enough money for thousands of lifetimes in any of his vacation homes around the world.

Many of those cases happened outside Russia in countries like Britain and Spain. Musk leaves the US on a regular basis too.

This is conjecture but there’s growing evidence that Trump was sharing US intelligence with Putin and would likely do the same again. If you can’t beat them, join them I guess.

I have a sneaking suspicion that when Elon got involved in the Ukraine war via Starlink, Putin reminded him that he might mysteriously fall off a balcony or catch a sudden case of polonium and Elon has become a lapdog for him ever since.

It also strongly encourages people to return their ballots in person likely because the GOP is already set to challenge mail-in ballots as “rigged”.

It’s not a “community”, it’s one person making all the posts because I guess they wanted to make hating Linux their entire personality. 🤷

Buying a social media network: $40 billion

Buying a US election: $0.13 billion

Democracy is fucked.

Yup, also American automakers get plenty of subsidies and bailouts from the government too. It was always about not wanting to make electric cars. 🤷

I find it ironic that the federal government sends out carbon tax rebate cheques and the majority of people hate it, but the provincial government sends out random cheques and the majority of people are going to eat it up.

I’d like to preemptively note that both cheques are in fact sourced from taxes. 🤷

That team writes emulators that run directly on Nintendo consoles, so they would likely test it on development versions of those consoles the same way actual console games are developed and tested. Otherwise they would be testing a Switch version of an SNES emulator running inside a Switch emulator on a Windows PC that would introduce it’s own errors.

I personally don’t think it’s so likely that Nintendo would write and maintain a Windows emulator just for their museum if an open-source project exists that they could legally use for free under that project’s license terms. Only someone with insider knowledge would be able to say for sure though.

Emulator projects should all add a clause in their EULA that specifically forbids Nintendo from using their software, then they can sue Nintendo for breaching their license. Give them a taste of their own medicine.

I understand the actual market reasons that buybacks and layoffs raise a stock price, but it’s always been counter-intuitive to me that shrinking the workforce that actually produces the capital and divesting money that could have been used to grow the company would be seen as positive indicators to investors.

But Reddit is keeping score! Number go up or no dopamine.
