The EU are voting on Chat Control this Wednesday 19th June
  • They literally will do that. GDPR shows that they will go after big American companies (That’s the point, a huge chunk of this is protectionism to build a tech industry in the EU that they control)

  • Why don’t you like Apple?
  • I mean, the Linux lmza exploit was found by a Microsoft engineer. Just because dollars exchange hands doesn’t mean the data provided is invalid.

    Companies hire Jepsen to validate their code for example, and you’d be a damn fool not to accept their analysis.

  • Why don’t you like Apple?
  • Rossman has a vendetta against Apple ever since he got caught importing counterfeit batteries (You can’t slap the Apple logo on batteries that Apple did not make, even if you call them “refurbished”)

  • 1990 - 2005 Gaming Build
  • It’s still bonkers to me that Kazaa’s network still technically lives on in Skype, though all the Supernodes are in Azure these days rather than the original P2P setup.

  • Many such cases
  • I’ve done workstation maintenance in a previous job. Every part of the Linux centralized management was worse than Windows. We did it to support our coworker’s wishes, but SSSD constantly shits the bed, and having to code (config management) to write some pretty simple rules like default printers is super annoying compared to the Active Directory built ins.

  • Sorry, Matilda.
  • The one that gets me is the Brits who get irritated that “You’re not an X-American! You’re an American!” Then call anyone with any south Asian ancestry a Paki.

  • no really how do we fix this?
  • It’s not free, but I find it worthwhile. I really hope Apple includes it as a default engine in the next update.

    Kagi doesn’t sell you shit, so if you use Google for that, you can’t get that replacement data:

  • L.A. County wants to cap rent hikes at 3%. Landlords say that would push them to sell
  • Yea, I get that it likely wasn’t what was decided in the original case, but to claim that case isn’t what the justices use to define corporate personhood is ignorant.

    The much more egregious error that is referred to is Qualified Immunity, which seems to have been invented whole cloth by a scribe during the first time US laws were collated when he incorrectly wrote down a law.

  • L.A. County wants to cap rent hikes at 3%. Landlords say that would push them to sell
  • … It’s then referenced as if it was part of the verdict in Singer Manufacturing Company v. Wright the next session where Justice Newman’s opinion confirmed it explicitly.

    “[…] it is now considered settled, I presume, by the language used by Chief Justice Waite, speaking for the supreme court, in the case of Santa Clara Co. v. Railroad, 118 U.S. 396, 6 Sup.Ct.Rep. 1132, that corporations are so included and entitled, as fully as natural persons, to its protection”.

    This is why you should read a bit deeper.

  • L.A. County wants to cap rent hikes at 3%. Landlords say that would push them to sell
  • That’s exactly what that case was. It grated Equal Protection Rights to corporations as well as Natural Persons. That’s then what is referred back to as the case law when “Is a corporation a person?” comes up.

  • Do you prefer Reddit or Lemmy?
  • Yep, Trump’s campaign figured out how to game Reddit’s algorithm. Sticky a post and essentially tell anyone in the subreddit to upvote any stickied post on any visit which would quickly drive the stickied post to the top of all quickly.
