Wow, you totally misunderstood the whole issue?

The point of China subsidizing their industry and their universities isn’t so that their people can “buy a new car every year or two” because they’re cheap.

It’s because that way they progress their technology and manufacturing infrastructure so much that no one else can compete. They chase everyone else out of the market, while their companies pull in massive profits and keep the high paying jobs for their citizens.

Well paid workers can buy their own housing without government assistance, but what happened to all those tax benefits the US gov handed out for EVs? They catapulted Musk’s wealth, while the workers are nowhere closer to affording an EV, or a home, or even healthcare.

Gotta appreciate the level of commitment on this commit…

So let me boil down the list of arguments in your refutation:

• Assert a belief about wrongness.
• Assert a belief about lack of knowledge
• Disregard provided proof contrary to own beliefs
• Present zero proof supporting own belief
• Expletive

Masterfully done, you should run for president. Moron.

Im using Firefox because fuck Google’s monopoly, but Firefox seems to care little for some stuff I think is critical, namely AV codec support. Lack of out of the box support for HEVC and a few others, which my underlying OS supports perfectly, is a big turn off.

May be time to give Opera a spin

Great, as soon as you have that working we’ll just make it useless in Ubuntu and rebundle everything plus their mothers in a snap

Definitely then the issue lies with click to subscribe, and not with click to cancel.

If the customer is insufficiently informed of any penalties for cancelling, then he shouldn’t have been allowed to subscribe in the first place.

The secret here is to come up with a business case that shows management what an incredible ROI they should expect from this initiative.

Then you get to play with robots for a few months instead of actually working!

Oh yes it’s intended, there’s even a setting where you can choose between abbreviations or scientific notation, because everyone knows K, M or B, but ain’t nobody gonna remember Ovg for “Octovigintillion” (10^87 apparently), much easier to just keep track of the powers.

It’s decent fun for what it is and it’s f2p, give a spin if you want - https://idlechampions.com/

Didn’t read the full article, but the summary conclusion that “it can’t be shut down because it’s false” is a bit worrying.

While it’s definitely the correct verdict, just on that basis, then wild misinformation ads would be OK too…

I’m not too familiar with WoW, but I think it’s a bit different.

In the idle clicker, you quickly get to exponential numbers, so when you’re optimizing the party and you have a choice of say, something that doubles your base damage or something, it really feels irrelevant because after all the other multipliers your hero is already dealing 2x10^(102), and going to 4x10^(102) is nothing

Interesting concept, thank you!

Have you ever played idle champions of the forgotten realms? At some point you start to get this feeling.

I miss mine so much, my dimwit brother threw it away like 2 decades ago along with our Megadrive, and I occasionally remember that and get sad all over again

From the article:

Restaurants and bars did robust hiring in September, adding 69,000 jobs last month, more than quadrupling their monthly average of 14,000 over the past 12 months, the Labor Department said. The healthcare sector added 45,000 jobs while the government contributed 31,000.

Other sectors adding jobs in September included social assistance (27,000) and construction (25,000).

I’m curious about the healthcare jobs, and if these include insurance paper pushers.

Wait wait, hold up. So Disney is providing trips to homeless kids to visit their amusement parks? Couldn’t they think of another way of changing these kids lives in a more… lasting way?

But in case screw those scumbags who took the trips.

That’s definitely not what came to mind when I read “classic Japanese cars”, my mind went to stuff like the Toyota AE86 and the Miata. And from there, to the likes of the Mitsubishi Lancer, Toyota Supra, Subaru Impreza, Nissan Skyline, all those cars I drooled over when I used to play Gran Turismo as a kid (and still drool over, tbh).

A classic Japanese car? Like those nimble little things that drift down crazy steep mountains and stuff?

Where I work there is a data retention policy, and emails and other forms of communication (internal emails and slack, but even customer calls, etc) are deleted after a set amount of time, which varies depending on the rationale for storing that data.

There’s many reasons to do this - limit disclosure issues in case of litigation, reduce storage costs, comply with PII rules around the world, etc. The guys in Legal have us file these loong ass forms about all this, including where the data is kept, security measures, etc etc etc.

I’m shocked this isn’t common practice everywhere.

Why the down votes? Bro asking a question and being legit curious, don’t be hating on someone that’s looking to challenge what they know just because it’s trivial to you.

This is an interesting approach from the CEO, in that it demonstrates why unions are mandatory.

Aw.
