You literally say it yourself. Precedents are being revoked. This shouldn’t be possible by the same court. We have balance of powers for a reason, and it was pretty well decided on that things don’t get re-litigated, exactly to stop what is currently happening from happening. The Supreme Court was not meant to be used as a political weapon by the President and Congress, and yet that is exactly what is happening.

But that’s not how it works. The Supreme Court just interprets the laws as “unconstitutional” no matter how clearly laid out they are. So passing of laws doesn’t matter anymore, and neither does precedent.

Pretty sure the last sentence you said was just banned, at least in some locations.

I do? Like quite often. But when i go, it’s like untying a balloon. You ain’t tying it again until it’s empty. Or not inflated anymore at minimum.

Who are you that you can control the flow? It’s either on or off. And if you turn it on then forcibly off it’s incredibly painful.

I got the ick feeling when they said “no leggings, but tights are allowed” like, wtf. That is so fucking creepy.

What context do you need? The numbers don’t add up.

yeah exactly. The person above said that “Being confined like a potted plant is considered acceptable for a person in a coma or with a severe disabilities, but not for a pet.” but it sure seems to me like people think that it’s fine to confine pets as well.

Uh the number of people crating their pets seems to disagree with this assertion.

As I also said, using the software is tacit support. It’s not possible to steal the design and reject the doctrine. If you use firefox or libreoffice you support mozilla and or the document foundation. If you drive a tesla that you bought second hand you support Elon Musk

By that logic if you use any firefox derivative like Waterfox you also support Mozilla. So by using any browser in existence you support either Apple, Mozilla, or Google…

If you buy a Tesla second hand yes, you are supporting musk, because you increase the demand for his products. That is not the same for free products in open source software. It’s especially not free for downstream consumers. Increasing usage of Waterfox will actually decrease usage of Firefox and cause Mozilla to struggle. There’s no payment or replacement of a fixed good that needs to occur. Your logic is very off here.

Someone linked them above in this thread.

They can have it, turkey is not good. I’ll eat the ham over here.

It’s murder if you do this to humans, not euthanasia. The human has to want it.

They can both be true, for example look into the lost and found system in Japan. Japan culture is like what OP says, but yeah it’s fucked up in other ways, that has no bearing on whether they treat stealing differently.

You need to differentiate between generative AI, NLP, machine learning, etc. Your question is pretty much entirely pointless otherwise.

How in the world can you have that view when companies literally advertise about doing those dark patterns?

One is a for profit ad company controlled by a homophobe. The other is a non-profit foundation that isn’t… there’s a pretty big difference here.

So you set up a nice strawman with assembly and fortran there (which would never be used for a web server) instead of suggesting a realistic option like C# or the JVM, both of which have much larger communities of people that actually know what they’re doing.

You’d get just as many contributions in Java or Kotlin and the quality would be higher as well.

The decisions at the start of the project have the most influence on the project, more so than anything ever will later down the line.

Piefed is also written in python. No clue why you would do that when you know that you’re going to be dealing with a massive amount of network traffic, more so than most server infra. Lemmy already struggles with certain amount of traffic and that’s written in rust.

Takes a special kind of person to write federated software and they all seemingly make really really strange decisions when doing so.

Stop trying to argue to convince them. Ask them “Why?”

Why would the moon landing be faked? What’s to gain from it? (Correct answer, nothing, and everything to be lost when someone leaks).

There’s answers to all of their questions, but I guarantee they can’t give an answer to Why?
