Sweden also stopped investing in infrastructure in the 1980s but not because of privatisation. It's just very expensive. Now everyone one is blaming each other when everything breaks down, especially politicians that are no longer in the government. There is no "accountability" for the government.

Force all the big platforms to share their encrypted data. Banning end-to-end encryption. It's all very stupid and will never actually catch any bad guys.

Hve you heard of GDPR? USB-C mandate? Right to repair?

I imagine it trying to say Earth but getting muffled by the politician

It's right there in the name . WINamp

Yes speaker. On the bus. On the subway. On the street. In a cafe.

And you better be up at 6:30 to put your towel on a pool chair. We tell you not to do it but do nothing about it. Enjoy!

Plus, the news of this would already be priced into the stock, so if anything the price is already low and these companies would need to pivot their business (which would increase the value again) or die (which would lower the price marginally, to zero). Either way, shorting is a bad strategy in this case.

Starbucks isn't Italian, for one.

It says right at the bottom of the page that it was inspired by a tweet. With the same wording as this post.

I thought the whole ideology of the fediverse was to get away from corporationl influence. So I'd say this is very much true to the ideology as well.

No. In Sweden, 99% of all payments are cahsless. Most stores don't even take cash anymore.

We still have plenty of (digital) options for payment in addition to Visa/Mastercard.

In my view, it's actually the opposite. The more digital paymenst are used, the higher the incentive to create a competing payment solution. Swish and Klarna are taking over more and more here.

Tbf all cemeteries are for living people. The dead don't care.

That's not how Apple works at all. They have had iMessage for a long while now and refuse to open up the technology. They want to monopolize the communications so that they can keep controlling it.

My guess is they are just trying to sabotage any attempts at an open standard.

Impressive to work that long on something and not change the code at all. The mom('s team) was either very competent at writing configurable code or very good at pretending to work.

They nailed the smile way better than the other one.

There are thousands of protests though, with thousands of people each.

They try to vibe code it, eventually get bored and give up. It's win win (for AI companies and for programmers) in this case.

It doesn't really explain the part where artificially making the pizza more expensive is somehow a payback.

Not this again... LLM is a subset of ML which is a subset of AI.

AI is very very broad and all of ML fits into it.
