I try to respond to every genuine engagement. I block trolls, contrarians, and provocateurs because life is too short.

Yeah this is the wildest overvaluation I’ve seen in ages. I’ve never heard of them, seems like most people here haven’t.
OpenAI must be getting pretty damned desperate to turn the AI narrative to do this.


The question is really how much did they profit. Was it a cheap investment to bring games to PC, and gain a significant but not overwhelming return? If so, it’s a big win.
Or was it expensive as fuck to bring games to PC and not much profit - in which case we lose out as PC gamers.
I’m tangentially curious how much of that revenue is solely Helldiver’s 2.


Boy, I sure wonder why one of the official examples of the IHRA definition of antisemitism is that it’s automatically ‘antisemitism’ to compare Israel’s actions to that of Nazi Germany.


In no part of the quoted post does AoC say she thinks Israel “should be recieving US interceptors”.
She in fact very clearly spells out that she will be continuing to vote against approving any new military funding to Israel. She cannot vote against existing funding… that is a stupid suggestion.
OP post (from both OP and OP in image) are dumb as hell…
‘One of the very few people in Congress whom are against funding Israel’s genocide, and vote accordingly & consistently, are saying they’ll continue to vote against… But they’ve not said it in the exact way I want them to - this makes me big mad!’ 😡
Pick your battles jfc.
Nah that spider is too cool to enjoy dark web shit.
It’s just taking kids to all the inclusive communities, private torrent sites and free streaming servers.


I wouldn’t count on the SC decision, they’ve made it clear their decisions are now heavily partisan.
Heck there may even still be a Republican president, and majority in the house and/or senate next presidency, because of voter suppression, literal direct vote manipulation (cheating/rigging), Elon offering idiot voters million dollar cheques, media capture (lying and brainwashing), voter apathy, an astounding amount of cognitively damaged voters that no longer value right and wrong or can tell truth from fiction… Etcetc.
Trump and his allies broke so many election laws and tried their hardest to cheat in the last two elections and there were essentially no consequences for Trump, only benefits, and few consequences for his allies - many of which have now been pardoned / rewarded… and now his cronies run everything. I don’t see how you guys vote your way out of this tbh.
Still vote of course, but set expectations that they’ll cheat and prepare for a disaster. The last two elections have been bad, but the next election is going to be a goddamn mess.


The one child policy was tried. It was a disaster.
The real question is why you would possibly think it’s a good idea to try.


NGL I’m not loving being a PC enthusiast lately.
Downvote for cropping out the artist name.
They’re not getting traffic to their site by us rehosting the image - all they ask is that their image is unedited to highlight credit. It’s not much to ask.
(Edit:
Actually, I see removing watermarks is like part of your ethos of hating people getting credit for their work or something… So I’m just gonna block you. Life’s too short. Byeeee.)
Totally.
I get some people having a brief shower in the morning to ‘wake themselves up’, also.


Arguing semantics is kinda pointless when the message is that wealth needs to be distributed far better.
Nobody at Occupy was protesting that just the billionaires need to be taxed much more and the ten-millionaires* should stay just as-is.
*The top 1% in the USA have roughly $12 million USD net assets as of 2025. That is far more than they need to live a very comfortable life with many luxuries.


Actually, for the wealthy it does.
Trump has been very wealthy since birth. The wealthy do not have bank accounts like your average wageslave like me, where their salary gets deposited regularly and they earn interest and make withdrawls - and perhaps have an attached home loan account, etc. We earn interest in high income accounts or term deposits and then pay tax on that earning - like suckers.
The wealthy use an entirely different model that focuses on using debt as its main tool.
Their assets including real estate, share portfolios, stock options and even expensive artwork are ‘good debt’, they perhaps don’t own them fully (they may be mortgaged, loan-backed or options, etc) but they’re assets that continue to grow in value over the medium term. If they sell them or divest them for real cash it becomes income that they must pay tax on. The wealthy hate paying tax. Solution: use the assets as collateral for loans and credit lines. This is how Trump lives like a king while (previously) not having much liquid cash, and also how Elon and most ultrawealthg do it - their entire personal spending is on credit accounts - debt - and by writing as much of it off as businesses expenses (meals, travel, security, etc) it all becomes tax deductable as well.
This is the same reason a lot of business executives request most of their payment packages as stock or options - it reduces their taxable income and builds their real wealth substantially. If they want a property: mortgage against their stock & option collateral. If they need money: bank credit line with their assets as collateral.
So when banks say to a member of the 1% such as Trump “we cannot give you a loan account, your collateral/outstanding loans at other fiancial institutions/criminal associates/track record is too risky for us”, that means he cannot use that bank and must look elsewhere. He is debanked by them for his purposes.

Have they tried not voting for him?


Trump has been debanked since the late 90s by almost all US banks, because when you bankrupt two casinos and frequently spend time with mobsters they considered loans to you “high risk” for some reason.
He’s been getting loans via Europe (mostly Deutschbank… which is also Putin’s bank of choice), and Russia, for 30 years.
That is, until he won the lottery by convincing the stupidest people alive to vote him into the highest seat of power.
So now it’s payback time against all the banks he thinks wronged him.
(Edit - I misread as Bitwarden and went off on the wrong tangent. Vaultwarden is not centralized, and it’s FOSS - my bad.)
The person you’re replying to already gave you one: it’s free.
Second: its not a prime target for attack like centralized, hosted webservices are. See: LastPass being cracked and people’s login data stolen… Twice.
Yes, it is cryptographically superior to LastPass, and attempts to design around their flaws - but the threat still exists because its a very tasty target on the open internet for cybercrime.
My little Keepass DB synched over personal VPN by Syncthing? Much harder to find a vector for attack. But it does require more moving parts and maintenance.
Each have their pros and cons.


Pretty defensive there. It’s not even a study


Sir, this is a Lemmy.ml thread.
Reasonable, considered responses are not welcome here.
Not having to commute and be at a workplace for an additional day is massive though.
Next step lets work on that 40 hours, because almost all of the rest of the world has on between 36 and 38 to account for legally required lunch and breaks, and the current push is to even less (~32-35) for 4-day work weeks.
