Why would black or gender marginalised people have a different voice?

Etar is pretty nice

I don’t see an issue in these two lines.

The only thing is that they are most likely not actually successive lines (because otherwise that code would be pretty weird).

I think that the point of the code is only to show the function names.

lets assume they make $65 million in profit every quarter

Where do you get this number from?

Hasn’t Spotify been operating at a loss for most of its existence? Wouldn’t that mean they paid 0€ to its creators most quaters (if it was actually calculated off profit)?

Wasn’t he basically working for Microsoft already while being employed by OpenAI?

What makes you assume the employees ever cared about whether OpenAI is non-profit or not?

But then why wouldn’t the board say exactly why Altman was removed?

I never said I believe them.

You either believe both the rape victim and the accusation victim, or you believe neither.

Only believing one of them is hypocritical.

I personally believe both of them to be some person on the internet who’s words do not matter. I do not consider either of the two claims to be worth listening to.

Innocent until proven. Always.

I was raped

I believe you no doubt

I was falsely accused

Flat out do not believe you

I’m not sure if you care, but you are being very hypocritical.

Obama is old

Yes but did you know he did drone strikes

Because its both irrelevant to the topic (unless that’s the reason he was fired, which I doubt) and a mere allegation. Innocent until proven guilty.

Eternity sometimes replaces a post’s thumbnail with that of a post further down the list.

Are there any performance benchmarks for the Star64?

Pine64 claims the chip to have performance similar to certain Cortex-A55 processors, which would put the Star64 on par with the Raspberry 4 series. Is that true?

For something like a gamepass it’s debatable.

You probably pay more if using a gamepass, but you also try a lot more games.

If you played as many games without a gamepass as with one, you’d pay a lot more.

But without a gamepass, you usually restrict yourself to fewer games.

Whether removing such restriction is worth the (not as significant) additional cost is subjective.

So there’s an actual case for subscription in cases like this.

(The reason subscriptions make some sense here is because digital items are artificially limited. With physical items or services subscriptions are almost always a money grab. But with artificially limited things, such as digital items, subscriptions can definitely be reasonable.)

Television and magazines are far more general. Television as a medium could be compared to Web as a medium. YT could be compared to a specific TV channel.

Riot Games behaves terribly?

in many cases when people bring up boy’s or men’s issues they will only do so while simultaneously attacking feminist talking points.

This is very much a talking point by “only girls can have issues” people.

“Men don’t have issues, men’s rights groups only exist to spread misogyny!”

That is a key point of why the idea that men’s issues are not taken seriously is spreading, because simply talking about / focusing on men’s issues quickly gets people labled as misogynists.

This both gets people to stop caring about the idea of misogynism, because “apparently simply talking about men’s issues is misogyny”, and thereby also pushes people to develop more problematic views.

The web installer is pretty simple.

It may seem intimidating because they’re being super cautious. (Stuff like “You should avoid using a USB hub” is bordering paranoia.) But that’s not because they need to be cautious. The GrapheneOS installer is very safe. The reason they’re being so cautious is because they want to be more than 99% sure it works.

If something goes wrong, like you use the wrong browser or fail to install the driver/package, it won’t break your phone; the install just stops and you can try again.

The one thing that may break something is if during install the cable gets disconnected or the power goes out. That’s unlikely by itself, but even if it does happen, you phone will most likely be fine.
