Mostly a shrug. Live and let live.

But that someone will have their own priorities that will most likely not always coindice with yours.

It was outsourced to the guy who ran Nazi concentration camps to build ballistic missiles to bomb London with.

Sorry you had to find out this way

So if I understand correctly, the reason it’s outdated is not because we don’t need those pesky banking regulations any more, but that it has been found that banks will just take out their own loans to cover the reserves they need from the central bank, so they can just lend as much as they want, no seatbelts. And the central bank will never run out of loans to give, since they have insane reserves, in their own currency it is technically unlimited.

So money is not really the thing we think it is. If banks overextend themselves and fuck up, the only thing we’ll see instead of failing banks is runaway inflation in the consumer and asset (housing) markets. Wonder where I’ve seen that.

Bank spokesman says they are itching to be the sector to fire the most workers, poised to make the economy so much better.

F-Droid could go through it, the thing that is prohibited is for Google to bar them just because they are a competitor.

Almost as if homosexual people were just people.

On one side, what the fuck, that’s not how it’s supposed to work. On the other side, at least precedent doesn’t mean much in the EU.

Well technically GDPR applies, but who knows if any cars are actually compliant.

The ability for a car to call emergency services in the event of a crash, and thus the mobile / data connection required to do that, has been mandatory since 2018 in all new cars sold in the EU.

So there is no cost incentive not to have the internet connection in there, as it is a basic safety feature now, like seatbelts.

Yes, most cars have had their own data connection for a while now. If I know correctly, it’s a requirement for Europe since you have to put that button to call emergency services in the car, so it has to have a GSM module, so effectively it has to have mobile data.

They knew.

On the one hand, I can imagine the family gatherings.

“Why did you block Uncle Pete?”

“He has been viewing my page every 2AM, there is no way he isn’t beating his meat to all the beach pictures I post of my kids!”

On the other hand, Facebook likes engagement, even the weirdo meat-beating kind. It makes them money.

Imagine the creepiness level when as a woman you get a ton of page view notifications every day at 2AM. Some of them from coworkers. Some from family members.

Some things are best left unknown.

The thing is that there isn’t. Israel could continue to exist if they didn’t murder all the children in Gaza. In fact, there is probably a derailer on the track with the people, since all this killing makes for great recruiting for Hamas.

Have you seen how much a razor costs nowadays?

I’m sure this is a useful feature and all, but Stalin likes this.

My worries are not that they can’t compete, it’s that they won’t even attempt to.
