you can’t convince me everyone is recycling their used electronics.

Amazon bricks your expensive new-ish device and now you have to pay to have it recycled? Hell no people aren’t recycling them, and that too should be illegal. Amazon should be legally required to take responsibility for recycling those devices, and how the device is recycled should be part of the device design process.

Of course! That’s what family values are all about! Praise the lord and pass the ammunition!

It’s even simpler than that: they leased the office space and have to continue to pay that lease or else pay an early termination fee. This is basically the sunk cost fallacy. But you are right that sometimes additionally they get tax breaks for certain office space, for instance the San Francisco mid-market tax break (AKA the Twitter tax break)

Dang, he only ran for president 8 years ago? It seems like an eternity ago that he was president.

This is so fucked:

When Mr. Duterte left office, his administration said 6,252 people had been killed by security forces — all described by officials as “drug suspects.” Rights groups say the overall death toll stands at roughly 30,000.

Privatized profits and socialized losses are such bullshit.

III One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.

Except male genital mutilation, aka circumcision. (Please don’t take this as me saying FGM and MGM are equally bad. FGM is much, much worse.)

That means the supply of workers in many countries is quickly diminishing.

I thought AI was going to take our jobs.

The lawyers are just loving this AI bloodbath.

In binary, when you add one more numeric place, things double. Not doubling would be like having two digit decimal numbers but only allowing people to count to 50.

I use an rpi2040 with circuitpython and usbhid. Plug it into anything and it shows up as a mouse and moves the mouse in a tiny circle every few minutes. You can get one for $6.

Or a tui file manager like ncdu

If you’re scared to do rm -rf, do something else that lets you inspect the entire batch of deletions first. Such as:

find .git ! -type d -print0 | xargs -0 -n1 echo rm -fv

This will print out all the rm -fv commands that would be run. It’s basically rm -rf --dry-run, but rm doesn’t have that common option. Once you’ve verified that that’s what you want to do, run it again without echo to do the actual deletion. If you’re scared of having that in your history, either use a full path for .git, or prepend a space to the non-echo version of the command to make it avoid showing up in your shell history (assuming you have ignorespace in your HISTCONTROL env var)

I use this xargs echo pattern a lot when I’m crafting commands that are potentially destructive or change lots of things.

100% this. Corporate incentives need to change. Money is the only primary corporate incentive right now, everything else is secondary and works towards that primary goal. Without a change that puts that goal in check, it will increasingly bring ruin on a global scale.

AFAIK the reason it is allowed is to keep a corrupt government from charging and convicting all of their political rivals, leaving only their allies as eligible candidates. The idea was to let the people choose their leaders even when under a corrupt federal government.

Oh yeah, exactly. USG and aps and stuff do not. The dream router does, so I would caution against it.

Also, they may force it in the future. Their past behavior does indicate that direction.

Ubiquiti website says that dream router must run unifi.

*Consists of UniFi Network plus two of Protect, Access, Talk, or Connect.

What router do you have? If it’s a dream router, how did you join it to your unifi running in docker on another host?
