Companies that sell “enterprisy” laptops (like Dell and Lenovo) usually sell a few models with Linux. And while not a laptop I wouldn’t be surprised if almost half of Desktop Linux users today have a Steam Deck.
UBI without a minimum wage promote workplaces that don’t respect worker’s labour, and socializes while privatizing profits. It would basically be the issue Germany had with social support before minimum wage was introduced. We need both UBI and a minimum wage.
But you’re right, the UX sucks, and there are other ways to detect and limit bots that don’t impact legitimate users as much - but Google needs to train their AI, and developers need to cargo cult stuff.
It doesn’t really matter, they don’t expect you to get everything right on these. While most of the time you need to get mostly right (Google is using these to train their AI so often they are not sure themselves), they are also looking at other things, like how you move your mouse, and the cookies that they use to spy on people to determine the probability of you being a human. If you pass a certain threshold they let you through, and you can do it even if you miss a square.
The thing is that at some capacity we will probably have those just before everything collapses too much.
I can’t wait for when we have enough arcologies for 1/3 or 1/4 of the population or so, and 100% of the population trying to get in. Or for how fast it’s going to become real life Judge Dread for the survivors.
Nope, you just need to convince a hundred something control freaks on a power trip that you are one of them and that they should give you a bunch of privileges, including legal immunity. Easy.
What the international law cares about is “sovereign states” or “sovereign subjects of international law” not countries which is a much more informal term. Sovereign states technically don’t even need a territory - 122 states have official diplomatic relations with the Sovereign Military Order of Malta (not to be confused with the Republic of Malta) which has had no territory since 1799.
Ergomania (excessive devotion to work) is an actual mental health symptom, and it can manifest as part of several mental illnesses.
And even their employers should try to get them appropriate treatment because “workaholics” tend to have very low productivity - they don’t work well in teams and are often too tired to be effective.
The common part in the loud and obnoxious is the American not Jewish though. Also (non-native-)Americans haven’t suffered several attempts of genociding them over the centuries so the generalization is nowhere as dangerous.
I like how people that are perfectly ok with giving amnesties for human rights violations and war crimes (the 1977 Amnesty Law) are complaining about an amnesty for an invalid administrative act. Fucking fascist hypocrites.
But it's all about convenience (teacup.social)
