Man, they sure got on the ball and solved that case quickly. Can’t wait to see how they stick it to those healthcare companies literally profiting off the murder of millions!

TIL. Unfortunately I feel like we live in a post-precedence world. As though somehow they’re going to say, “sure, any normal jury would go with the eggshell rule…but you’re no normal jury are you? You’re special. You can see right through that EsTaBlIsHeD pReCeDeNcE hogwash and make the REAL right call 😈.”
And somehow it will work.
Matt Gaetz is definitely not already preparing to declare it all lies from his new OANN show.
Quick! Think of what a Bald Eagle’s cry sounds like!
Did it sound like this? Or were you actually thinking of the cry of a Red-Tailed Hawk?
OP is misquoting and misinterpreting what was said here.
We cannot associate a product serial number with a customer unless that customer has voluntarily registered their product on our site
But they said that wouldn’t even apply if he had registered because his bag was a V1, and
we did not implement unique serial numbers until V2
I remember knowing that knives will cut you and make you bleed, and that when people were shot in movies they would bleed, therefore bullets must be shaped like little blades.
Yeah it’s not a mastodon issue any more than racist speech is an issue with our ability to vocalize as humans.
Similarly, the solution to people saying racist things isn’t for all speech to be policed by a central authority, it’s for societies themselves to learn to identify and reject racism.
The problem in many cases isn’t that they don’t literally see it but that they aren’t aware of what constitutes racism a lot of the time.
I agree with this part, “in many cases” sure,
That’s the primary issue here.
…but I think this a strong claim to make unless you have data to back it up.
I believe you and I are likely speaking from our own anecdotal experience on the platform, and for all we know, most people are in instance bubbles and are also speaking from their own perspectives.
If the “primary issue” is “why do some people not report seeing racism?” and the two possible explanations are either “they see it but are not aware” and “they actually never see it”, then unless we have accurate data from all those bubbles, we can’t make any claims about which is the real explanation.
But if you have data on this, that would change everything.
Comparing the “racism” present on a federated service to that on a centralized one doesn’t make sense. You can say certain instances of the service fail to adequately moderate racism, but there are so many niche pockets of mastodon that most people are exposed to, and moderated by, completely different groups.
To make a slightly more nerdy analogy, it’s like someone saying “the windows desktop experience is better than Linux”. Well Linux doesn’t come with a desktop interface, so that statement doesn’t make sense. Which of the dozens of windowers/distros are you talking about? I’m sure the criticism is fair, but it doesn’t contain enough information to make any real claim.
So it’s not unreasonable for one person to say “I see racism on Mastodon” and many others to say “I never see it”, and not just because of the races of the people involved. “Mastodon” refers to a protocol, not the various ecosystems that use it.
lol if only. We’re just going to see more fences around neighborhoods, more police in the “nice” parts of town, more general segregation between the upper and middle class, and if the CEOs are actually scared they’ll just spend all their time in other countries that are more safe.
I feel like there’s a point where “trend” is the wrong word to use here…certainly not “tiktok trend”.
Not only is that unprovable, it seems highly unlikely.
Contextually, it didn’t read like you were saying “only for people holding/affecting public office”, it read like a universal statement of the form: “No X are Y”
I’m glad we agree. And in addition to context, clarity matters in language. Historically, it’s not an absurdly slippery slope to go from “these politicians are corrupt” to “privacy is for terrorists!” Overly simplifying our choice of language can foster undesired radicalization.
Cheers
Right, which is why your attempt at a generalized statement was not inaccurate. It is not the case that “no good actor needs to hide their actions”.
To be clear, these are not the only two options, just the biggest and most new-user-friendly.
I got started in gnome, but am currently using Hyprland (and QTile if I need X)
I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic, but just in case, this is literally the “if you’re not doing anything wrong, then you have nothing to hide” argument that authoritarian govts constantly use to ban proper encryption and any form of privacy.
I believe Andrew Tate has said exactly the same thing. Literal copium.
Step 1) Make billions of dollars annually
He knows exactly what he’s doing. It’s multiple groups of shitheads using each other to gain power, not just one big group of elites who are all trustworthy buddies.
My guess is that Musk will need to buy a merc army before he’s able to establish his own nation in space. Might already have one.
