  • That's a big oof for a product like Fairphone. They dropped the ball hard too by not standing behind their fuckup and left their customers hanging. Fairphone just got off my list of potential new purchases.

  • I wish the damages they had to pay were enough to bankrupt them. "Companies" that do this sort of stuff are purely parasitical in nature should be taken down.

    I'd even argue that when it is blatant like that law practicing licences should be revoked and the higher management of the company jailed for attempted extortion.

  • I really think it is incompetence though.

    She touted her killing her dog as proof that she has the grit to make tough decisions in the past. She seems to equate the ability to make tough decisions with making decisions with horrible consequences because she has no understanding of true priority management. I bet she really thought she was being a "tough decision maker" when she decided to sacrifice the chance of rescue of that poor member who fell into the ocean just so her deportation flight remained on schedule. But really, it is just an absolutely shit incompetent decision.

  • She wanted something that was an easy transition from Windows without having to learn a new interface. She is competent enough to install her own OS but wants to spend what little spare time she has on the computer gaming and not troubleshooting and maintaining. So I recommended she tries a few but primarily Bazzite with KDE and she liked it.

    Heck, I'm running Fedora KDE right now but if I ever had to change I'd probably pick Bazzite too. Immutable sounds great for my purposes. I have zero intentions of messing around with my kernel.

  • Just have a friend who finally decided switching yesterday. She picked my distro recommendation too which makes me feel all validated.

  • Wow. I don't know if everyone understands how unbelievably fucked up that is. A person overboard is usually considered an all hands on deck, high priority search and rescue operation because of how hard it is to spot the person and how finding that person a few minutes earlier can make the difference between rescuing a person and recovering a corpse. She downright sacrificed a Coast Guardsmen's life for something that could have waited. This is beyond incompetent priority management and I can guarantee that most Coast Guard members hate her guts for it now.

  • WTF are all US schools like that? With all that security it looks like it was filmed in an airport

  • Albertan separatism. Brought to you by the Koch brothers. Well, the remaining surviving one. Can't wait for that society-running shithead to kick the bucket too.

  • China accuses Japan of militarism. Meanwhile in China:

  • And ICE left them alone.

    Because the kind of people who join ICE are cowards who want to power trip on and abuse defenseless people.

  • To robots, humans are like zombies wanting to take their brains.

  • This isn't new. I remember seeing a promotion for this exact same printer many years ago already. I'd approach it with suspicion.

  • And yet the "I don't care that they gather data on me, I have nothing to hide" crowd is still clueless

  • Sounds like they're not gonna get your money after all

  • Many of them migrated to Canada after the war as well.

  • It is baffling that people hadn't clued in about this sooner

  • I presume a person would curl up into a ball to preserve heat which would reduce the effective skin surface area. But that is still quite fast

  • Look up the short film called The Man Who Planted Trees. A great watch.

  • I see AI as a working animal with a bit of a behavioral problem. It can do some specific things much better than us humans which is why we use them. But you can't trust them without a human handler. And if you leave them on their own for too long they will definitely end up doing something unbelievably stupid.
