Theor goal is to make sure retail 401ks don’t get the last seat.


BIG BADDA BOOM!


so… “I told you aliens were real” ad infinitum?


Is possible to label users on the web app side? Asking for an idiot Lemmy user. Certainly not myself.


It was very likely compromised by NSA requiring a backdoor or weakened encryption that could be cracked by the US. There’s a long story that’s pretty interesting if you want to hit the rabbit hole


That’s a burn within a burn! That’s a second degree burn!


It’s the latter. That’s physically impossible at those pressures - mains access for that size of pipe is locked out (and dangerous). And it’s bullshit that they “didn’t know” until they got complaints about pressure - municaplities of ANY size monitor pressure for serviceability and boil order recommendations. Someone knew 100% and pretended to be dumb.


I’m upvoting you because we should raise visibility of people calling this out. But I hate that we tend to call these people stupid (myself included).
They are calculating and outright authoritarian/fascist in agenda, and find psychological weak points with the gullible masses: “Think of the Children” “Think of the Scammers” " Think of your taxes!" People who either don’t have the mental accumen, lack of education, lack of experience, or lack the time to apply those because they are struggling with life tend to give these things a pass or just buy into the messaging outright.
It’s manipulative and it’s “clever” in it’s own way to constantly apply ratcheting pressure rightward. Calling them dummies obfuscates just how insidious and evil it truly is. Mocking them doesn’t work if people assume these people are a joke that will never accomplish their goal…


Just fucking fantastic.


What a thoughtful and concise overview of the situation. Thank you.


Same here. Had it in spam. Tell your friends and maybe we can turn that into another class action. :)

Anyone taking odds on this being a prepare for the bubble popping vs. the corporate line that it’s to invest further into AI?




I have one of these still in the package that I never used. How could they have bricked it? Very curious about this!


Perhaps my joke came off as caustic and I’m pleased that they may be changing course (pressing X to doubt a bit here). FWIW I have 2 MBP at home and 1 at work. I like MacOS over Windows any day, but I’m a realist, not an Apple fanboi. That doesn’t negate the fact that macbooks have been essentially unserviceable for the last 10+ years without specialist equipment or exceedingly costly parts. That’s an objective, easily verifiable statement with repairability ratings all over the internet (linked to Rossman for an example).
And while I recognize the sacasm, yes, I’m pretty happy most of the time! Thanks for that! In all seriousness - thanks and I hope you have a good day fellow surfer!


This is an exceptionally low bar to hurdle.


I don’t want either. And it’s a slippery slope to the next stage, and the next. Eventually we will have no control over what we own and zero privacy.
