What’s strange about defending people’s freedom to be themselves?
What’s the problem with drag queens reading to kids, exactly?
With energy companies, you mean? Like, we’ve seen federal governments of various countries cancel (or re-approve) pipelines all the time - Keystone XL comes to mind, for instance
The people stalking our neighbourhoods preying on people’s success
Interesting phrase there. Whole piece was definitely overblown, but this kinda gives away the game.
This is very similar to my story - end of support for win7 meant putting Mint on the HTPC.
Soon after that, it was the old laptop my spouse was about to chuck out. Cinnamon was a little sluggish, so I eventually landed on Debian + XFCE
And when I discovered I could get my desktop’s audio interface working on Linux (it’s firewire, and by most people’s standards, ancient), it was game over for Windows.
I don’t know what Freetrack is but I hope it gets implemented for you :)
I’ll be honest, I have zero sympathy for any landlord here. Rent control is necessary to (hopefully) make sure there is housing that people can afford to live in - and acts as a kind of limit to the extraction of an ever-increasing portion of the paychecks of the working class by the landlord class.
If the renter loses the ability to pay for a home, they become homeless. If a landlord loses the ability to pay for a property, they become a renter. Economic conditions changed? How about this: these landlords should sell, and make property prices drop a little, instead of having renters getting kicked onto the street.
Thanks, yeah admittedly I hadn’t read the entire article before posting - and quickly realized the answer to my question when I did! I should really know better than to do that :)
Anyway, maybe the question I should have asked is more like, “why the heck did they give arbitrators so much latitude” - which it sounds like we agree on!
How on earth is it possible for an arbitrator to just override legislation like this?
Lol, and just immediately downvoted. Lemmy needs that essay more than I thought! Too easy to be reactive without accountability on this platform, sadly
How is this not considered spam?
This is literally just an ad for a product. It even has the price in the title for crying out loud!
And to top it off, it’s posted by an account that I’m pretty sure reported me for spam, because I posted a tech-philosophy essay where the site mentioned at the end that the essay was also published in a zine.
Well, thanks for not incorrectly calling the post spam and downvoting it at least lol
Huh? This is a link to an essay, unless I’m entirely missing something
Hey look, I wasn’t the one that wrote this:
“E.g. for people in Turkey, it’s a lot more stable than their own currency. Same logic for probably dozens of other countries…”
Is the “dozens of other countries” statement something you no longer stand behind, or are you done being rude?
So the argument is no longer “Bitcoin provides stability” or whatever, but instead is, “it’s no more unstable than the world’s most unstable national currency”?
Turns out you’re right, BTC price only went down 77% from the 2021 peak, my mistake /s
Thanks. Although to be honest I’m not sure what their edit was - does Lemmy not have a way to view a post’s edit history?? Seems like a problem…
Bitcoin regularly loses 85% of its “value” vs USD
85%
This has happened multiple times
Uh oh guys, we got a salty bag holder 😂
I would like to hear you say it
