Is Privacy Worth It?
  • As I said, that's a very different definition of "always". In fact it's more like "sometimes".

    Always, would literally mean nobody knows you even exist.
    Any knowledge of your existence would mean you've lost some privacy.

  • Any chance of lemmy being recognized as an official community?
  • The clear way would be for them to run their own instance. They could have a community for each product.

  • Is Privacy Worth It?
  • Says someone commenting to an unencrypted, publicly federated, social media platform.

    I'm not sure "always" means what you think it means.

  • Request: Help making an executive summary to advise my company to electrify our vehicle fleet IMMEDIATELY
  • The company probably doesn't care about any global emergency.
    The convincing argument would be about their total cost of onership.

    You want to get your hands on any data they collected during their trial. Specifically cost data.
    I'd bet they already realized the short term cost of getting the cars and installing chargers is more. That's likely why they decided against it.

    Working up the numbers for long term fuel and maintance costs, comparing ICE and BEV, might be convincing. Especially if you can use their own data.

  • Achievements of liberalism
  • That may be an option then.
    Still not convinced it's only way from here, or even the best way. It would depend entirely on the details.

  • Achievements of liberalism
  • Now I understand. And I just don't see that as inevitable.

    Private ownership is too important to people individually. Without it, we don't even have any reason to expect any anything from our labor, since we can't be said to own even that. There isn't much room left for personal autonomy, if we don't have defacto ownership of our bodies, minds, and effort.

    It would require some post-scarcity Star Trek technology to make our labor obsolete. Functionally infinite energy and matter replicators. The technological components would have to be in place, before the social changes become feasible.

  • Indiana judge rules tacos, burritos are sandwiches
  • If one is the other, than what's on which side of the equation doesn't really matter. They're still the same thing.
    So sure a calzone is also a burrito. No difference really.

  • Achievements of liberalism
  • You keep saying Liberalism as if its only one thing. I've already mentioned three economic philosophies, each creating their own new set of rules. I'm honestly not sure we're talking about the same thing.

  • Achievements of liberalism
  • Social Liberalism came about as a response to Classical Liberalism creating the same oligarchic problem you just described.

    If it happened once, it could happen again.
    I don't know if it will, but its certainly possible.

  • Achievements of liberalism
  • Even if that's the case (I'm not sure it is), it doesn't make them the same thing.
    It's not like there is a law of nature that says Social Liberalism can't make a comeback.

  • Achievements of liberalism
  • Achievements of Neoliberalism is what you mean.

  • Indiana judge rules tacos, burritos are sandwiches
  • Burgers are sandwiches.
    Hotdogs are tacos.
    Burritos are calzones.

  • Marvel Subpoenas Instagram to Expose 'Captain America: Brave New World' Leaker * TorrentFreak
  • When they start getting lawyers involved. That's how you know when it genuinely leaked, and wasn't part of the publicity plan.

  • Youtube Rant from a paying customer
  • My bookmark goes directly to the subscription page. I never see the home page algorithm

  • The Onion never misses
  • That makes sense.
    However it was recently pointed out to me that when you have to explain how obvious (or clear) something is, it really isn't.

  • The Onion never misses
  • Is it saying we won't be able to pretend democracy is at stake?
    Or we won't be able to pretend the US is a democracy?
    Or we won't be able to pretend the US, is a democracy at stake?

    Oh! Is it the spaceing that hanging me up? I'm seeing "U.S. A Democracy". Should it be U.S.A. Democracy?

  • Elon Musk’s X can’t invent its own copyright law, judge says
  • Of course he can!
    Anyone can!
    It just won't be enforceable.

  • The Onion never misses
  • I think some words are missing from that headline. It doesn't make sense

  • ‘Fantastic Four’ Casts Ralph Ineson as Galactus
  • Why are they swinging for the biggest of the world ending bad in the first movie?

    I'm not impressed.
