Use preview.
No, every day now.
More people fail every day.
Unsustainable means it fails eventually, not on a specific day.
Countries shouldn't aim to be competitive. They should aim to be more self-sufficient from the global economic system, so they can have decent lifestyles without increasing their population.
Or, more concisely: Countries should aim to be poor.
Not sure the right-wing nutballs behind this really understand that, since their proposal actually enforces it.
To be fair to the nutballs, their proposal will actually slow it down as compared to not limiting immigration. That is, from their nutball perspective the proposal is an improvement, just not a total solution. For a total solution, they need to go full right-wing nutball and also ban women from working so they'll stay home and have proper Swiss babies.
"the proper solution is obviously to have a formal, controlled, actually viable work visa system for economic migrants"
Yes, we should definitely formalize and legalize our tampering with other countries to produce cheap labor we can abuse.
Wait, what?
Unlike iOS, Android is already open by design
That's not an argument they will be able to make once they block sideloading.
Except that they aren't blocking sideloading. With the planned changes you can still install apps via:
1. Other app stores. The apps will have to be signed by a registered developer account.
2. By one-click installation from a web site. The apps will have to be signed by a registered developer account.
3. By ADB. No registered developer account required.
And for the cases that require a registered developer account, that account can be anonymous and free as long as the number of installs is small.
Heaven forbid, you might have to show them your Slashdot account!
That would be fun, actually. I'd have to give them slashdot and substack. They'd have no idea what either of them are.
Well, it would be fun until they denied me entry.
Americans are reaping what Trump has sown, but as usual, he's engaging in denial.
FTFY
This is a gaslighting that he'll probably largely get away with, since most Americans -- especially his voter base -- have little contact with tourism or people from other countries.
His ongoing attempts to gaslight them over grocery prices, though, that one's going to be tougher. I'm surprised he's trying that. I mean, he's dumb, sure, and insulated from truth, but surely someone around him is smart enough and clueful enough to tell him that it would be better to sell it as a period of unfortunate but necessary pain on the way to long-lasting economic revival and stability. His base would eat that up, but even his diehard supporters are having a hard time reconciling "grocery prices are down!" with their own grocery bills, and he just keeps repeating it. He can cherry-pick specific item prices or gush about the lower-price of a (conveniently scaled-back) Thanksgiving dinner basket all he wants but people who actually buy groceries (such an old-timey word! <eyeroll/>) can see the truth during every weekly trip to the store.
and you make a lame joke out of a copy paste editor error we all saw and ignored.
Don't be mad because you didn't see it.
Also, don't call them "editors"

I'm not saying that they can't do it, it's that they can't legally do it.
Ugh. Acrobat actually craps itself on forms now. The check boxes keep disappearing during scrolling, and I have the latest reader.

It isn't and that's also not how it works
