I always wonder, how you can be fined hundreds of millions of dollars for breaking a law or multiple, but no one will go to prison. How is it not a serious crime to break peoples right to privacy and personal integrity on a massive scale like that.

If no one is jailed for doing it, it will never stopped they will just try to lobby to change the laws. They knowingly are breaking the law, but it's only fines so they don't give a shit, because they are also lobbying to change those laws...

What a bunch of idiots for politicians, they let these corporation walk all over our rights.

Sure but when they actively decide to break the law and the rights of millions people, they are criminals or part of a criminal Enterprise and you should be on trail. The people in position of power, choose to break the law because of profit motivation, of course they shouldn't keep the money because it was made illegally.

Why would they care about the consequences of fines, when they themselves don't have to pay it, they can just cash out and not lose a cent, its the company that gets fined.

Fuck em, they should face several years of prison and lose the right to run a business or having a position of power, for gross violations of human rights and shouldn't be trusted to hold power.

What stops Nvidia, intel or whatever to build the same kind of privacy violating technology directly in the hardware. I don't even know how our phones are even allowed to collect all the data that they do, what are you going to do in the future when every piece of electronics you buy, is collecting data. You wouldn't even need internet, they'll just send it to the nearest 5g tower.

In 5 - 10 years, we'll live in the era of mass surveillance (for your safety of course). AI combined with all the data available, will make the world a living hell for regular people. 1984 will no longer be science fiction, because we elect self serving clowns, total morons that aren't capable of doing anything because they are starstruck by rich people and tech bros.

Reddit is currently very mad at Hasan Piker because he seems to be abusing his dog

You call this animal abuse, the guy barely gets angry, and even if he did get angry it doesn't mean jack shit about how some one treats their pet. You call this animal abuse, the guy isn't even yelling at his dog, it doesn't mean anything.

For your own health, you should probably ask yourself why you think he is abusing his pet, based on the evidence you shared? Because there is no way that you can tell by the two clips you shared that he is, in NO WAY. But here you are sharing this as evidence. Either you are stupid as fuck or you are being manipulated by this whole streamer drama shit.

Stop watching internet influencers, they are all boring as fuck and stupid as fuck, but I guess stupid attracts stupid.

For some reason, Elon hates old people, including Cobol and older adults. He wants to do it quickly, killing two birds with one stone.

There are actually companies (very few) that work with migrating large cobol code bases to java, in a automated manner. And it costs a lot, hundreds of millions and it takes a couple of years. They ensure that the cobol and java execution is doing the same thing. So it works, but it's shit. Many do this because it's hard to find cobol developers and the cost of IBM mainframes.

Anyways the code turns into cobol style in Java, horrible and hard work with, would never like to maintain it.

New US Congress bill proposal requires all operating system providers to verify ages

And of they can't, because they can't. Every parent is not the ideal parent and will never be, heck there's parents who are retarded (in the literal sense).

But lets say it's the average tech illiterate parent, who thinks computers are a gaming machine for kids. Imagine the amount of social engineering and how the marketing departments of companies trying to make kids addicted to their platform. The industries are pouring trillions of dollars in marketing, are you confident that regular parents have a chance of competing with them?

i'm in no way of supporting this because it's done for other nefarious reason, just commenting on the troupe that parents is responsible for their own kids. We can say that all day, but the reality is that they don't know what impact it has on their kids mental health and how damaging short term dopamine addiction is for their children. Society is still responsible to help parents navigate healthy behavior for their children.

Tbh if children was the concern of this law, then you would allow parents to sue tiktok and other platforms that have made their children addicted to the platform. You should also be able to sue influencers for promoting stuff to children (they know the age of their userbase).

Still parenting is hard, especially when you are competing with phds in behavioral science or psychologists that help these platforms design their addiction mechanism.

‘Who dreams this crap up?’: Kevin O'Leary slams new rule that allows employees to ignore their bosses after hours

Reply in thread

This law isn't catered to you personally, don't you think there are bosses or work places that call their employees after hours - it's pretty common. I don't mind, but I get mails and messages after hours and just answer them.

It does effect me without me knowing in some ways, but I personally feel it's more important to help someone, that also might be stressed and decide to contact me, for some help or questions.

If the person or boss isn't an asshole I don't mind, but not everyone has that luxury, of having a boss that cares. Often they don't want to contact you after hours.

The World’s Most Valuable Publicly Listed Game‑Focused Companies

In game micro transactions, all kids play Roblox and most games in Roblox require kids to spend money to partake in the activities of the server. And the currency is their own robux, which goes to the developers who made the game-modds.Roblox by it self is not a game, more of a platform to make games.

The developers can then withdraw their robux to real corrency but they take a 40% fee for that.

I'm not well vested in Roblox at all, but I know teachers and people who have middle aged kids, all of them are playing Roblox (the kids that is). On their ipads or computers, and parents buy them in-game currency to basically shut them up.

Take this with a huge grain of salt, because I'm going on hear-say, but that is the gist of it. Kids buy robux to play Roblox.
