  • Settlements can go undisclosed by agreement of the parties involved. Civil court is different from criminal; the former is for the benefit of interested parties, the latter is for the benefit of the public at large. Criminal courts can do some things behind closed doors as well but that usually requires a need of the state (such as protection of a judge, jury, state, etc.)

    This is assuming a legal system similar to that in OPs post.

  • 4Chan doesn’t have their own personal payment processor that they’re responsible for. They’re tied into processors like stripe and accept all payments that make it to them on the US side. So long as it is legal, which is typically the only way that a payment actually goes through as processors refuse the obviously illegal cases like encompassing embargoes. If the UK doesn’t want payments going to 4chan through a processor that operates in their country, it’s on them to stop the payment processor on their end.

    The UK knows this, the fines are just one step towards them petitioning processors.

  • China is now considered America’s pacing threat, having replaced Russia due to what has been revealed, in Ukraine, of their ability to conduct war.

  • Learn to read.

  • Not who you replied to, but: there is no legal, ethical, or moral, requirement for a business of one country to comply with the laws of another. If there was, all business would be beholden to the most overbearing government on any one subject. And just to specifically state it before it’s brought up, being tied into the international banking system doesn’t change that; if a state doesn’t want its citizenry doing business with a particular entity, it’s on them to stop it on their side or come to an agreement with the other’s government. Which does happen, especially with the conglomerate hegemony of components of the international banking system, but naturally that means that the only time any entity of a state is forced to comply with the laws of another is when their home-state demands it, which ultimately isn’t the laws of the other.

  • It’s more like most countries. Maps like the one shown in this post that place Asia as a central focus are common in Asia.

    Maybe it’s not national narcissism, rather just focusing on what’s most relevant to any one people.

  • Or just set a reminder.

    I used to just set alarms but then there’d be a 50% chance I wouldn’t remember what it was set for.

  • I guess you missed the part where he quoted the exact part of your comment that he was replying to. Or do you just want to ignore that part so you don’t have to defend it?

  • Wikipedia is the most accurate encyclopedia to date; its perceived unreliability as to its correctness is largely a misunderstanding that arose from misconceptions as to why one can’t (or shouldn’t, depending on case) cite it in academia. People think that it can’t be cited because of its unreliability but in reality it’s simply because it’s a third hand source; i.e. a resource.

    Wikipedia is built near-purely on second hand sources, which is how all encyclopedias are intended to be constructed. As long as one ensures the validity of the second hand source used, encyclopedias are great resources.

  • Read mastercard’s actual rule that is literally in the OP. The processor’s interpretation isn’t flawed and in no way does Mastercard limit their rule to what is illegal.

    The rule is so open ended and vague that it’s entirely on Mastercard (and Visa) that this shit happened.

  • In fact, in many places ordinary citizens can’t file criminal charges even if they wanted to; it’s often reserved for state (polity or part of) prosecutors. But pressing charges is different, it’s just an agreement to cooperate with the investigation.

  • Small pedantic correction, but you can’t preface every command with sudo; only executables can be invoked with sudo as it can’t elevate your current shell. Naturally, the way to execute non-executables such as builtin routines as root is to just spawn into a root shell with sudo su.

  • Definitely, we need more regulation in the market or it’s only going to get worse.

  • I guess none of the other developed countries must be capitalist, because they seem not to not be influenced by capitalism’s incentive structures.

  • You might have some luck with a wm that can apply shaders.

    Something like hyprland, wayfire, or compost could do the trick; and you’d be looking for a very diffuse (glsl) bloom shader with an exaggerated horizontal component or an additional scanline shader.

  • That’s obviously just reskinned domain/os. You thought you could fool us, but you haven’t got one over on me!

  • Martha Stewart wasn’t actually convicted for insider trading, the judge threw that charge (securities fraud) out saying that no competent juror could find her guilty of it.

    I can’t remember if the true basis for dismissing the charge was lack of evidence or a judicial determination, but if it was the latter that’s pretty damning (that investigators didn’t have a case); as a determination of innocence presumes all evidence is factual, to a reasonable extent, and a determination of no crime having taken place does the same in concluding that the evidence describes no crime relating to the dismissed charge having taken place. A kind of legal non-sequitor.

  • I initially read this as if Musk said he’d have them killed, since in EVE Online “to primary” someone means for a fleet commander to call someone out as the primary target and have their fleet start shooting at them.

  • Mules absolutely do require fuel; they’ll only be useful for a few days without food.
