You were told this?

Like the angry matrons in cookie clicker 🍪

This case is a pretty good example of how even though you might win a lawsuit against somebody for a lot of money, it doesn’t necessarily mean you will get any money.

Getting a judgment is the first part. Collecting is like doing the whole thing over again.

Could build a reverse proxy to mask Lemmy links behind something that seems more legit

Undecided voter = person who cannot discern truth

And if you work for a company that supports causes you don’t agree with… Move on.

Well in regards to editing short videos that loop, they have definitely eclipsed my skill (and willingness to learn)

I could lend out my old computer with old games installed to somebody else to use, right?

What if instead i lend my hard drive, is it still the same thing? Or what if I lend out my remote access screen sharing password to my old PC. Still the same?

Maybe the legal workaround is to game the system here a bit - forget downloading executables which feels a lot like pirating and just lend access to a system that is legally running the original license.

You are correct. Later drives sometimes had a cable select dip switch/pin or different ports on the motherboard.

Yeah there’s so many manufacturers of various connectors that it can be really tricky to nail down the exact model numbers

Looks a lot like MX23A series

Non-US citizens can get permanent residency and a green card if they invest at least certain amount of money in the USA. I think it’s about $1,050,000 and set up a company that employs 10 other people.

Kinda true, how this thing even worked, nobody knows

I’m a little surprised they wanted their brand involved in this

A long time ago his clan beat out some other clans so that makes him king.

I’m pretty sure anyone is welcome to challenge his assertion of authority at any time by the same means.

A company cannot disrupt itself. Sears, Kmart, and their colleagues who have perished became particularly good at making a profit through one specific channel. So every executive, every performance bonus, in fact every person on the payroll was focused on maximizing their specific method of turning a profit.

Unfortunately for them, the world changed and the leaders didn’t realize they were themselves being disrupted and therefore had no capacity to turn the titanic.

There are only a few counties in the world that draw the smartest and most accomplished from the rest of the world. The USA is pretty high on that list. This gives the USA an unfair advantage worldwide in several ways:

US schools and businesses get to pick from the best and brightest worldwide, promoting an atmosphere of high performance STEM jobs.

US replaces lost high education and high IQ population, since there is a negative correlation between education level and reproduction.

Finally, if you think in terms of winners vs losers, which I feel MAGAs do these days, other countries lose their best and brightest, making them less competitive to the USA.

And of course don’t forget that the vast majority of Americans come from families that immigrated, and few would argue that they themselves should be sent back “to where they came from”.

No matter how you look at it, immigration is extremely advantageous to the USA if handled properly and an enviable position that many other countries wish they could be in.

It’s important to realize that in most democracies this isn’t a bug, it’s a feature of the system. The founders of these systems wanted to ensure that major decisions were deliberated, not rushed into, and that there wasn’t a lot of room for an executive power to make snap choices that would determine the future of the nation.
