And as soon as he created Facebook, he used it to spy on his fellow students without their consent.

It’s worth the trip, I promise. I grew up in Phoenix so I didn’t see it for a long time. It’s nuts. It absorbs sound really well, so after fresh snowfall, everything is so quiet it’s surreal. And then you hear the sound and sensation of walking through it, which is an experience in and of itself.

I mean, that’s just happening in your head, we hate the Russian government and the subset of the Russian people who support it. Hating some rando for being Russian is still wrong.

You’ve never heard of people responding to rule breaking with rule breaking of their own? Your assertion that it has no military advantage is flat out wrong, this attack has a military advantage. It brings the fight closer to Putin and requires them to divert forces. It also makes the Russian people more likely to revolt against the war.

Are you like an anti-historian or are you just trying to be uselessly hyperbolic?

The only people who know why the target was chosen are probably not hanging out on Lemmy.

But really there’s no reason whatsoever to put restrictions on the smaller weaker country who is being invaded. War is hell. Russian civilians can rise up against Putin if they don’t feel safe in their own country. 100% of this is on Putin.

No, it doesn’t work like that at all. The difference is in the demand. You go to your bank and you demand the money in your account and you get it, simple as that. You can’t do that with debt. Me owing you a dollar doesn’t mean you have a dollar to spend. Ease of collection is literally the most important aspect of what we’re discussing.

Think about it this way, if I’m going after your money, do I sue you, or do I sue the bank?

It’s funny you mentioned bailment, the bank is absolutely required to keep enough cash on hand in order to satisfy what the FDIC deems to be a reasonable amount of coverage for their deposit accounts. (search “demand deposit account”)

You own the money in your account, simple as that for individual accounts.

Former banker here. You’re just fucking wrong about that. You’ve said zero true things.

So you’re one of his dupes, got it.

All those disclaimers are out there for liability purposes. It is highly unlikely that you will brick your phone as long as you follow the instructions and avoid making any modifications to the way the hardware runs (do not overclock, do not underclock etc).

As much as I love shitting on the rosary rattler megacorp, they have nothing even approaching exclusivity in that department. They’re just the biggest organization in the world (that I know of) that gets away with actively spending money covering it up.

If you’re gonna use both for now, I would recommend downloading an ad blocker. AdGuard and ublock origin (the word origin is important, there is a knockoff called ublock) are both good. It was greed that motivated Reddit to pull this shit, might as well deny them ad revenue.

I would say it’s more like when a bunch of friends collectively break up with toxic partners and have a big meeting to talk about it. It’ll die down after a while. People on Reddit don’t really talk about Digg anymore.

I ran a crack on Apollo, so I’m still using it for now, but I will never use Reddit in a way that gives them ad revenue.

pseudo-profound bullshit

That sounds like every single public statement he’s ever made.

I think if you are in the business of selling art, and you aren’t the type of artist who has a really serious reputation, you gotta throw a few things in your offering that are hilariously overpriced just to see if one day someone buys it. I don’t make furniture, but I do a lot of cooking and if I opened up a restaurant, I totally would put a few items on the menu that are only there to identify the people who have more money than sense. Like a burger with a gold leaf on it or something stupid like that for 500 mdollars.

Make sure you’re willing to abruptly lose your Reddit account if you do. Reddit admins are being pretty cunthroat about this all.

Yeah, they’re gonna keep ruining Reddit while we steadily migrate here. We’re just being a pain in the ass on our way out.
