Wow, wtf, that’s crazy.

… “starting” feels like a horrible word to use in this context, in my humble opinion. Not as bad as not thinking about it tho.

The approach worked as intended, more perfectly even.

Look at all those useless expenses on the pic, some people profited on products that weren’t necessary to begin with, and put a lot of moneys in so the system wouldn’t accidentally change for the better.

You are right, but I always risk it (restore points work most of the time anyway).

Oh yeah, deleting partition tables always felt a bit like (mini) scorched earth past-denying genocide. Gone but not forgotten. But also mostly forgotten. Nevertheless you legacy will live onwards through volume labels that I always use.

Oh yeah, I've had that happen to me (only the one time, like a decade ago), once I realized what gives I solved it easily with GParted 'repair' or something like that (iirc?).

Edit: ohh, I think it was a (full distro) live-boot CD that I used.

Just hold the power button until it gets quiet.

… shush, don't fight it, it will be over soon.

Yes (convergent part), but I would say that it’s more like the bird(s) one is converging to take the classic infect job

Lol, I don’t know why but I feel kinda bad for laughing at that, poor cute non-dinosaur birb

Same, tho sometimes updates get messed up (unable to install) bcs of that and ofc you have to recheck your settings with every update.

There are also lil apps that help you with that.

I assumed this since before the president stuff. It’s definitely a mob family, from Frederick and Fred to Don Aldi (… bcs mob family + German :) … I’ll see myself out).

You just can’t threaten, evict, and buy political figures at that scale without a platoon of various type of henchmen, including public servants acting as such (police, state prosecutors, etc).

Neither can you recognize other ppl as vaguely equal humans, much less freely do something to their benefit.

Sure, but when the risks the capital takes are so low & long-term as in showbusiness (everything got consolidated af), and the payouts so huge compared to cost (especially excluding like top 5 most payed ppl on the project) … you might think that the negotiations weren’t made fairly on equal grounds.

Otherwise, if there were meaningful risks, the corps would have no problem sharing (=lowering) that risk at least with immediate stakeholders/workers. I bet most writers would take minimal or no pay to get in on the profits (that can last decades). Most writers work on several projects a year so so if business risks would be actually important, lowering them via lower initial costs for shared uncertain future profits would be a win-win scenario.

Bcs taking someone’s work & capitalize on it just because the original worker didn’t have the means to do so … some people might see as immoral in a lot of cases.

One of the cornerstones of capitalism tho.

Also note the huge difference scales, bcs it matters a lot: if you sell a peace of tech, or business, or property at fair price (like dcf or whatever), then you already got compensated justly or as close to that as possible with the information available at the time. But if you were forced to sell at an arbitrary fixed rate bcs the buyer forced you into it from their position of power over you (and made a huge profit in a short amount of time from that) … you might feel different about the situation.

Like, even your, if you would be able to get secondly payouts, would you not collect them?

Also, if the negotiations & payout would be fair, the strike would not make financial sense for any party, or have an effect on the business.

I feel attacked and I don’t even use Arch btw

Price of gas is not the cost of gas.

It should include a way of getting the gases back into non-gas form and to reverse/mitigate any damages caused in the process. And the same for all of the supply chains (for gas and electricity, and any product really), can’t produce that much waste on a finite planet & just forget about it if there are no (complete, non-bs) recycling processes, natural or man-made.

Thats why plastic very much isn’t cost-efficient, it’s just cheap bcs legislators allow it to be.

Still way less deaths compared to what fossil fuels already did to us (not to mention the rest of nature), like cancer, mining related nastiness including transport, etc. Also there is more radioactive pollution from coal than nuclear plants (bcs of the volume & exhausts dumped into the air).

People that would lose a tiny margin of their profits would absolutely let the world burn instead, along with all biodiversity.

So, water & food related mass migrations war, here we come!

I wanted this (and the wheel) so badly!!

Black heavy metal berry! … I mean that literally
