Yeah, but you see, from marketing perspective what sounds better? The Line or the Dot or the Pimple?
They had these 3 choices, they made the more sensible one even though it has nothing to do with a good or sensible city outline.
it might be better to pay people based on the value they create in the world instead of whatever the market decides
- market is a collection of all people involved, who is better suited to decide on what the value is other than all of the people as a collective vote?
doctor who proscribes pumpkin seeds to cure cancer actually create negative value, yet they get paid quite a lot sometimes, so therefor the market is an ineffeciant way of deciding how much to pay people.
- they are removing the money from the gullible, which may be argued is a better way to redistribute the money (all done willingly even though misguidedly).
people who make a ton of money by owning things but do no work at all, such as heirs to large fortunes
- the market has already decided that the parents of heirs were productive enough, that even their heirs can now enjoy the fruits of the labor of the people who made the money.
Most americans at this point will piss themselves and run away from dangerous thoughts like these.
- dangerous by what measure?
With a president who solves an existential threat by finding the best expert he can find, and using his own formidable political skills and charisma to run interference for that expert.
Seriously, Comacho was a meathead, but Iâ(TM)d vote for him.
Me: you know, many businesses already change between summer and winter schedules; many retail stores, many services, many public transit operators.....
how the hell could they make the "just one administrator" mistake?
It's not a mistake, because it's not a 'permissions/who can be administrator' 'mistake.' It's the account owner. It's the person who's credit card is on file.
Why would Apple 'comply with a court order' that has nothing to do with them?
If the court ordered the father to disband the account, and he didn't disband the account, he needs to be taken back to court to force compliance.
That being said, the article DID make clear that there WAS a court order for him to disband the account, and even if he was using in all the right ways for all the right reasons, not-complying with a court order is extremely problematic.
Then her remedy is to go back to court and compel the target of the order, aka the ex-husband, to do as ordered, not to claim that a third party with no standing in the case is at fault.
If you and I contract that I will sell you may Ford Escape for five grand, and you give me five grand and I don't give you the keys, you don't go to Ford and ask them to make you a key. They will, correctly, say "....and what does this have to do with us?" when you wave the sale contract at them.
And nothing Apple did or didn't do prevented the mother from having that custody.
She had a remedy from day one: make new accounts for the kids. Inconvenient? Sure. But way less inconvenient than most of the stuff that goes along with 'we're separating.'
*Should* Apple develop a system to deal with this a big more gracefully? I'd say so. But to conflate this with 'they're violating a court order for custody' is utterly ridiculous.
May I ask why you call firing people morally corrupt? Illegal, according to some artificial definitions of what is supposed to be the law, which is a system designed to force behaviors, maybe. But morally corrupt? Please explain, I really do not get it, absolutely don't understand what is morally corrupt about firing people that you don't want to work with because any reasons whatsoever. If it is your business, you should be able to fire anyone, it's not about morality, it is purely, completely a monetary decision. Do you feel morally corrupt for purchasing things on sale rather than overpaying for them?
IKR?! (I know right?) TBH (to be honest), I just wanted to leave a comment here for the LOL (laughing out loud) factor. I can do this all day but I don't have all day, have to leave ASAP (as soon as possible). TTYL (talk to you later).
Installing Windows of any kind is a security risk that can lead to death, on this much I agree with the AI. I still believe anyo e should be allowed to do it though.
I am 100% pro Israel, against Islam, against Hamas, there is no such thing as Palestine. People should be able to fuck whoever, if it is consenting adults.
Government power is evil in itself. Taxes are theft, laissez faire capitalism is the best economic system for long term benefits.
Climate change is real. Immigration is fine as long as there are no welfare systems based on taxes. ruzzians should be contained by a mote with alligators and lasers.
Feminism, welfare systems, urbanization is causing the declining birth rates, this cannot be easily reversed, we will suffer because of this more than from the changing climate as a species.
People must be able to own any weapon systema they can afford. Governments must be decentralized, presidents shouldn't have more power than city mayors. Democracy fails hard because of power monopolization. Power must be decentralized. Property taxes, death taxes, income taxes, capital gains, dividends must never be taxed.
Schools, health care, infrastructure, everything must be private, paid for by selling bonds. Governments must charge fees for use, not rely on taxes. Fees must be directly paying for services rendered, never used for things other than the services rendered.
Money is what the market decides, most of the time markets decide that gold is money. Governments must never be allowed to print money, they may coun it for a fee.
Trade must always be free of all and any government involvement.
etc.etc. I know how this will be moded, but that is the point of this thread.
Why not just go real bare bones and implement the only interface that is needed - Aliens style motion tracker. A couple of dots and a sound that beeps faster and faster when the target is closer?
How exactly what I describe here is a Troll, when I am actually sharing my experience as a user of a technology? I luterally feel nauseous (wanting to vomit) when riding as a passenger in a Tesla. Rarely happens in an ICE vehicle, happens in electric vehicles, especially Teslas. No matter how much I get moderated as a Troll, doesn't change what I end up feeling as an EV passenger. There is something about the way these things ride, it makes me want to vomit.
Right, but as I just said obeying a disallow directive isn't legally mandatory, so it doesn't mean much.
