All investing is speculation.

Certainly an option, but not the most profitable.

It’s great, just learn how to use options.

It also means there will never be another F2P game. They have to make their money upfront from every user. They can’t just turn it off when the profit slows and/or stops.

Were you interacting with the Fae by any chance?

Okay, but what about your catma? Does that define your naptimes and your need to make people believe that you must’ve meant to smash your face into the table leg after darting through the house?

Yes, this has been a problem with FOSS. Linux is only getting popular because the UX has advanced beyond “developer UX”, and Windows has declined into corp uselessness, and Mac doesn’t do what’s actually needed for half of the people. That’s how this works because users are normal people. Either you adapt or you gatekeep. Both approaches are valid, but you don’t get to complain about your choice.

The Fediverse will see mass adoption when it matches the actual features people want. Think about this: Foursquare was a great local social media. But the moment their big feature - the check-in - got added into Facebook and Nextdoor, usage dropped like a rock. People go where the most features are presented most conveniently. Privacy is a “nice-to-have”. If I’m already sharing pictures of myself from a phone, I want it to automatically read the EXIF data and pick up the geolocation and other stuff. I expect filters that are doing the intense work on the server rather than my device (and for free [as in beer]). I want easy sharing and tagging, and a way to put myself in front of my friends and especially in front of my rivals.

If the platform you’re pushing doesn’t have those features, it’s not fit for purpose. Remember - iStock, Pexels, Imgur, Flickr, DeviantArt, Pixiv, Pinterest, Instagram, and Snapchat all have different purposes, even though they all perform the same basic function: hosting and serving pictures. It’s the feature set that matters, not the core function. Don’t ask yourself “what does this thing basically do?”, but rather, “what will people want to do with this thing?”.

Can any of it be used to start a court case somewhere he doesn’t own? That’s the only thing that matters now. Indict him or shut up.

I mean, both. Frivolous personal spending is bad. Inflation is bad. These two things are both bad, but not in scale. It’s possible to say “Uber Eats is a waste of money”, “Uber is a greedy corporation extracting money without value”, “Corporate taxation has affected prices in a way that’s negative to the consumer”, and “Inflation and trade instability have made it harder to have the lifestyle we expect”.

None of those are contradictory. Some can be changed on a personal level. Some need greater influence involved.

I mean… Xena, Calypso, and Gabrielle confirmed I’m straight. But at least Joxer taught me the kind of guy to find as a best friend?

Oh, and always keep any women I care about away from Autolycus.

So, is this going to be a wedge, along with Massie?

Yep.

Holy mackerel! A Republican actually doing what the party talks about, that’s a miracle. Can he run for President?

Neither. They’d cite a precedent for self-defense against a violent prisoner and claim that he was about to attack.

I think they realized that they won’t get the jurisdiction to bend on this one, and the general response from UK government will be “good riddance to bad rubbish”.

Ah, but what if it’s a PC on loan from one of the companies? That way when he breaks something, he’s got an IT guy on call.

Was this supposed to be surprising? Anyone who’s been either a driver or customer with Uber over the last few years has recognized this trend. Same goes for Lyft. They opened with super-low fares to beat local cab companies and build habits. Now it’s time to go back to the few local companies that were able to hold out against the “disruption”.

It’s also available on Windows, and most other Linux distros.

Dave wins every time.

It’s stable, Melroy is both a good dev and a good admin. The software basically fades into the background, which is ideal. There’s been ongoing development, but PeerTube still isn’t supported - and that’s the only negative I’ve got.
