  • I got banned from "lemmy.ml" memes community for saying exactly this.

  • “Rather than require specific outcomes–such as achieving maximum share price–fiduciary duties are largely about conduct, process, and motivation,” says Harvard Business School Professor Nien-hê Hsieh in the online course Leadership, Ethics, and Corporate Accountability.

    A fiduciary duty does not require the CEO maximize shareholder profits in the long-term or short-term. It requires obedience, openness, care, and not acting to enrich themselves.

  • Corporations have a fiduciary duty to maximize profits for shareholders.

    Apparently that's a myth. CEO's of public for-profit corporations just need to be competent and without a conflict of interest.

    EDIT: This is true even with the caveat that birdwing listed.

  • I'm writing materials to teach Windows 11 to someone, and I literally explain Onedrive as "a computer in America".

  • Looking forward the the day GOG Galaxy becomes as unstable, slow, and annoying to use as the itch io launcher.

  • The specific criteria is "that would, in all the circumstances, cause a reasonable person who is the target, or a member of the target group, to be intimidated, to fear harassment or violence, or to fear for their safety".

    There are all manner of exceptions and qualifications. Yes, under certain circumstances saying "Israel is committing genocide" might pass the test. Just saying it as a statement of fact is not alone enough to be a crime.

    The title is misleading. Michelle Rowland says it will be illegal if certain specific other criteria are met.

  • With all the calls to bring down immigration, this would be a disaster for that cause and bring more people over to their cause. That is assuming it's actually about the number of people and the economic implications of that.

    Guess we'll find out if it's that or just racism.

  • They charge money for a free OS, but they don't use that money to provide more than installation support. They don't offer troubleshooting support or upstream improvements.

  • I think it's better to have a work computer and home computer. Not just for ease of switching to Linux, but also because doing anything personal on your work computer is a security risk.

  • I feel like when people have a work computer (running Windows usually) the switch to Linux is generally far easier. Work is the most important thing someone might need Windows for.

  • Microsoft is accelerating that trend with incompetence and greed, not as a strategy.

  • Problem is that Mint and Zorin don't take security as seriously as they should, and so I'm worried about the risks that would pose.

    Plus Zorin is a bit problematic for other reasons.

  • FFS Altman.

  • Phones have already become the mainstream computer, Microsoft is accelerating that trend.

  • You think choosing your Linux distro is bad, imagine having to choose your electricity, water, internet, phone, banking, and insurance provider as well as your local councillor, workplace, school, career, entertainment, childcare, car, house, food, etc.

    This "love choice, hate choosing" is a really valuable thing to understand.

  • I think the hardest part of moving over is the temptation to dual-boot. Linux is better, but if you have Windows 11 installed and you need to boot into it for something or other, you're never going to use Linux.

    And then there are the challenges of setting up a VM in Linux.,

  • So I should spend more money and natural resources on an overpowered EV so I can save a little bit of money on a wine tour?

    Also, I'd just take the bus or train. I wouldn't really fly domestically because planes suck.

  • No I'm not. I'd take a bus or train if I were going interstate.

  • A war criminal is someone we're obligated by law to arrest. We are not obligated by law to arrest the president of Israel (only the prime minister).
