I think that would average between $5.000 and $3.000 per undocumented immigrant.

The beatings will continue until moral improves.
Ok, that is kind of clever.
Though I suppose even the dumbest user will chicken out once the terminal pops out.
The image clearly tries to make see like not a single building is left. It’s the intention of this images.
I’m pretty sure there’s a noble intention behind this, but it is misleading, it is propagandistic.
I will provide you a true comparison, similar lightning, similar time of the year. From september 2023 to september 2024. You’ll clearly see the destruction. It’s nothing shy. There’s a lot of destruction. But my images will not exaggerate reality.
There you don’t have to really look into what buildings are still up or not, as it is quite evident in the images what was destroyed to the ground. Even with far worse resolution the portrayal of reality is, IMO, infinity better. And the fact that in 5 minutes, with public resources and from my phone I can create this image that is less propagandistic that the image of the post, is, again IMHO, another evidence on why the image from the post have a higher propagandistic value that informative value.
I’m not saying area was not bombarded. I’m saying the election of that specific picture, time of day without shadows and just after a sandstorm, is made on purpose to exaggerate.
Without supporting any kind of violence. And without denying anything.
I feel obligated to say that this is purposely manipulated. As pictures taken in very different times of day and year make for a faulty comparison that does not portrait reallity.
Specially the time of day (that make shadows disappear on the right picture) and the sandy surfaces make it seems like the image on the right it’s all flat and that buildings are leveled to the ground. And that’s simply not true. It’s just optical illusions.
This does not mean that the areas was not subjected to heavy bombardment, and that all people on that area may have been killed by bombs. But the images presented are just manipulative and I’m against media manipulation no matter how good intentions are behind the manipulative attempt.
IP law firms tried to get their cases into my country and they only got a 50% success rate on court so they stopped trying (cost benefit thing I suppose).
Also private trackers in my country do not allow the use of VPN (why do they care IDK, they say it is to have more control on who join), so there’s little point on getting a VPN for piracy here.
Colonize is not the same as terraform.
Mars could be colonized without terraforming it. Closed habitats could be permanent thus providing a way of colonization.
Terraforming is a trouble without magnetosphere that’s true. But not impossible. As there are tech concepts on how it could be possible to shield mars atmosphere. And doesn’t seem imposible, just expensive and complex.
I don’t see the lemmy model failing. So, as others, I think is more of a solution in search for a problem.
In general I don’t see any reason to leave Lemmy right now.
Also I don’t think things will keep simple with that model. I see a lot of underlying complexities that the current formula does not have.
Maybe it would be a better to try that model on a fediverse area with less success than lemmy.
Peertube is really struggling for instance. Not really on the developer side of things but on the content creators. Maybe a coop of content creators for peertube could me something that is needed on the fediverse.
Full price Stellaris is 322€… Let that sink in.
I agree with all those points.
I don’t know if adding exceptional cases to de equation adds to the argument or not. But there are many instances where the ones selling the product are not the ones that made it, and the ones that made it will never see a penny of what you paid for. This is true in old games/media, where rights were bought long ago by corporations and creators see nothing. Also true in any big production made by a big corporation with many workers. The workers who actually create the IP were paid by hour, while corporations and investors get to keep milking the product after creators had been paid.
This will invalidate any argument about creators getting compensated for their work. For those cases at least.
I’ve got the feeling that drift is an issue that is becoming more prevalent more and more.
I have controllers from ps1 and ps2 that work flawlessly nowadays. But the more current the controller the more probable it has stick drift.
I’m not all for conspiracies. But I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a lightning bulbs type of pact to introduce programmed obsolescence on a product that otherwise would just last forever without need to buy replacements.
As seen with Tumblr decay, and then Twitter, I think proprietary platforms will never be a safe haven por LGBT communities.
Why would you stay in that platform you are aware of who owns it and what is he doing with it?
Anyone still using twitter should be considered far right, there’s no excuse to stay in that platform.
I’m physically unable to make 8 in binary with my fingers.
My finger just refuses to go up by itself, it will just go up with its friends.
I mean that creators of a tool shouldn’t be liable for a crime committed with that tool. Unless the tool was purposely made for doing crimes.
I did know about the uk proposal. Didn’t knew about the EU one. I will sign it today 🫡
Counteroffer. We eliminate copyright laws all together. For anyone and everyone.
Let move to a system in which we found the projects before their release. And once released they are available to everyone for free.
Also let’s make a system where everyone can work a basic work like 20-30 hours a week and get a living wage and the rest of the time we can just produce art of any kind of thing for free to anyone as we’ll already had our needs covered and we won’t have the need to monetize every second of out existence.
I remembered the american billions, I remembered to use the currency symbol before the number. But it was finally the simple point, instead of a comma, which defeated me.
