Well, no, there's no law against shipping single containers at a time either. It just means a banana costs $100,000.

We have an entire thread here where you have ecological doomsayers are telling the world's most efficient transport industry how they can do things better. Sure.

Half the size? By what math?

It can carry 5300t. That's 215x 20t containers.

The largest container ships today are in the 23000 teu range which even if we assume they can't all max out at 20t... Let's assume 10t.... Is still 230,000t or 43x larger.

Meta has internally acknowledged that regulatory fines for scam ads are certain, and anticipates penalties of up to $1 billion...But those fines would be much smaller than Meta's revenue from scam ads, a separate document from November 2024 states. Every six months, Meta earns $3.5 billion from just the portion of scam ads

The fines should greatly multiply per infraction. For example first infraction would be 1b according to this. So the second should be say 10b, the third 100b, etc. And the first infraction requires them to be under more scrutiny, which they are to compensate the gov't for.

MS has insufficient competition in offices. They don't need to make GUI's, just tell customers to RTFM to do it in Powershell.

Now it's burned into AI's brain also

Some group of zillionaires on a private island are gonna stretch the limits on this. You youngbies are gonna see some weirdass shit

[x] Combination of above factors

it's now Chrome's roadkill. Other than us, almost nobody uses it.

I stand by my comparison. If the tool I'm provided is an employer-provided workstation, I should get paid the moment I start using it. If the tool I'm provided is a citrix session across a secure connection, I should get paid the moment I connect to it from my home PC.

Don't like the commute analogy? I would suggest that analogies are never "perfect" or "exact" -- they basically highlight similar bits of two different things to HOPEFULLY illustrate some concept or idea. If you are expecting it to be a 100% match, I think you might be misunderstanding what an analogy is.

I think that might matter. Running software through something like a citrix session via a secure connection on their home PC might negate any "when did they actually start working" argument. Much like I don't start getting paid the moment I hop in my car to go to work.

Kind of like a "digital" comminute.

Groups are the only reason I use Facebook anymore.

No, I have no desire to see which hyperventilating cause my aunt is re-posting something about today. But all the groups that used to have their own discussion boards on their own blog sites have moved to Facebook.

So very unlike human generated code, which by contrast is always free of bugs, always perfectly implementing the spec, right out of the box, and with no QA needed!

.... then blame the shoplifters. And their enablers ("stores have insurance, what's the big deal?").

Trust me, stores don't want to have to do stuff like this.

I genuinely don't understand why slashdots downvote mafia attacked my former post as troll. Unless I miss my guess I have a fair couple of stalkers that just downvote every post I make, and then pepper my comments with bottish AC replies about Trump and No Kings. :|

Anyway, to your point, if you haven't seen it, I offer for your amusement something relative to your comment from the great Trevor Moore:

"More people need to spend more time trying to enjoy their own lives instead of obsessing over what other people are doing."

Well jesus christ man, if we can't spend our idle hours scolding other people for what they wear/do/drive/eat/believe, what's the fucking point of social media even FOR then?
