And the arrests?

Where are the CEO’s in handcuffs?

If I pull this shit on a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of the level that they did, I’d still go to jail, so why don’t they?

And don’t give me the “but we need car makers” excuse, CEO’s are replaceable

Don’t give me the “but we can’t definitely prove they knew”, they are the CEO’s, that OS what you’re paid millions for, right?

WHEN ARE WE GOING TO JAIL THE RICH CRIMINALS?

It’s so frustrating to have to read that a bunch of rich criminals get away with yet another criminal act and only got a fine which will be paid by the consumer anyway. I can fucking guarantee you that these criminals got a nice bonus for restricting the damage, so for their crimes, they get paid.

And then police wonders why people like Luigi appear? I’m not saying I would do what he may have done, but I am saying that yeah, I fully understand and I fully agree with it. If the justice system refuses to give these criminals the penalties that they give to us, then we’ll just have to do something ourselves. What other option is left?

Seriously, governments over the world: if you don’t want vigilantes killing CEO’s then START FUCKING JAILING CRIMINAL CEO’S AND MANAGERS FOR FUCK SAKE!

If your company commits fraud into the millions then you know, or you get those that signed off on it, but JAIL THEM

Thanks, you made me genuinely laugh, I needed that

You mean the SEC in the US? You’re kidding right? Nobody cares about any of that anymore. Does the SEC even still exist? Worst case scenario, Oracle just gives some money to Cheeto and they’re done

I’m just like wtfuuuhuuhuuuuuu… Oh wait…

Jellyfin, for one, comes to mind

Maybe it should be easier for people to donate something to open source software. Maybe on the Linux command line there should be a message from apt that certain projects could use your financial help, of you want to.

I doubt many people would be pissed if projects just ask for a small donation

Most of the brains already left for other countries

Nah, always projection. Who would expect them to commit fraud if they wanted life long ineligibility?

Fuck paid software, use open source

It’s not even for the cost of it, I simply refuse to trust any software that is not open because I know they’ll try to fuck me over one way or the other

When convicted for embezzlement, someone should NEVER be allowed to run for government offices ever again

None of the candidates are nice and most are much, much worse. Don’t recall the name, but one of them basically is ready to drop the h bombs and push us all straight into WWIII because reasons.

If anyone takes out Putin, they’ll have to take out the entire military top and government of Russia with it or we’re all fucked

Taking how successful Russia was on the battlefield of Ukraine, I’m going to go ahead and say “try us”

I know that Europe is a bit behind on military spending but that is rapidly changing and in the meantime Russia lost nearly a million soldiers on the frontline. That alone is enough to cripple the nation for the next two decades.

It’s hard to see how Russia is going to do anything of that. The only “strength” it currently has is misinformation which works well for the US right now but that will have its limits soon enough

AI won’t code everything by next year, blnot inn5 years either as it requires understanding context and actual reasoning which AI doesn’t have and won’t have for a long time to come, but the day that AI can code itself is the day that humanity is done for

I hate lawyer speak with a passion

Everyone knows what we’re talking about here, what we mean, and so do you

KDE, always

Used it since I switched to the Linux Desktop 25 years ago. Quickly tried gnome, and others, and hated it.

KDE is fast, efficient, looks awesome, is ready to work with, and highly customizable

And that last paragraph sort of nails it on the head

Musk is a scammer, he always has been. He got lucky a few times which landed us to today. He has close to zero engineering knowledge and is a drug junkie to top of off.

Look close at all his companies, look at what they all have done since he got in

Tesla… How many new models were made since he got in? And no, he didn’t found it, he bought himself in and through some scheming got rid of the real CEO. How many models are his brain child? One. Yes, that one. That is Elon Musk. Tesla robotics? You mean the guys in spandex suits or the shitty pre 1990 robots that are controlled by some guys that were in highschool 3 years ago? There is nothing of substance there. The robo taxis from yeeaaars ago that will now be there next year? Uh huh… Tesla truck? We’re still waiting!

SpaceX? They got billions to get us to Mars. They never go beyond the super easy part in rocketry, low earth orbit. Anything beyond that is where shit gets really hard and we’re still waiting. All I saw was billions of tax dollars wasted in blown up rocket after blown up rocket and SpaceX cheering nluke idiots over a blown up banana. Hell, they obliterated a launchpad because btgey were dumb enough to not understand flame diverters…

Boring? We dig tunnels 1000 times cheaper but it must be just a dumb tunnel with no chance for escape or survival. We can add disco lights though, cool right!

Solar roofs? The ones that didn’t work and right now there is this huge court case about it?

The guy is beyond stupid, been saying this over a decade now, and somehow he keeps falling up

He’s also close to dying apparently. One can only hope from polonium poisoning. For him only the best.

That is not how NATO works or what it is

Not saying we shouldn’t try to free political undesirable prisoners, just saying that that is not what NATO is for, won’t happen

do economic harm to the US

… Like the economic harm you’re doing to Europe and Canada?

You’re literally that bully that’s starts screaming “don’t hit ME!” when the victims punch back

Sorry but the only way out of that is to stop buying apple products

I get the design choice, it looks nice, but the hardware is rather trashy and both hardware and software are hostile to it’s users. That won’t ever change

Nothing wrong with it

It was built years ago by the NSA but I’m sure that by now any backdoors nwould have been found

Having said that: it could use some rework to become more intuitive, especially with the error messages and how to resolve them
