how about forcing LaLiga to show evidence about damages? Because surely everyone who pirated their content would have paid if free streams weren’t available, right guys???
Kayana@ttrpg.networkto Verkehrswende@feddit.org•Warum so viele junge Menschen durch die Fahrprüfung fallenDeutsch2·2 months agoDas stimmt, deswegen lassen wir uns mittlerweile auch kaum noch breit reden. Entweder man hat die nötigen Voraussetzungen oder man bekommt keinen Termin.
Kayana@ttrpg.networkto Verkehrswende@feddit.org•Warum so viele junge Menschen durch die Fahrprüfung fallenDeutsch2·2 months agoTeilweise schlicht und einfach für den Lerneffekt. Jeder meint, man müsste ja nicht mehr lernen, weil man das ja schon alles kann, also gib mir gefälligst einen Termin. Wenn man dann ca. 70€ für einen neuen Versuch bezahlen muss, dann werden (meistens) ganz kleine Brötchen gebacken.
Außerdem kann ich mich nicht erinnern, wann wir das letzte Mal einen Schüler mit gerade mal 70% zugelassen haben (so wie der interviewte Fahrlehrer), mittlerweile fordern wir sogar meistens 97%.
Kayana@ttrpg.networkto Open Source@lemmy.ml•GravyScanner : a FOSS Android app that reveals installed apps involved in Gravy Analytics data breach8·2 months agoTrue, but at that point, every website I’ll ever visit and have visited in the past might be a threat, so that doesn’t really matter too much to me.
Kayana@ttrpg.networkto Open Source@lemmy.ml•GravyScanner : a FOSS Android app that reveals installed apps involved in Gravy Analytics data breach8·2 months agoI’ve got several hits, but none of them have permission to request my location. If I understand the README correctly, that should mean I’m safe, right?
Huh, really? I thought there were slightly more women than men, but maybe that depends on the economies etc.
As for your second point, yes, exactly. They don’t reproduce. So it doesn’t matter if many men get one wife each, or if a few men get many wives each, the number of pregnancies won’t change, and the number of pregnancy-related deaths won’t change either. So (again), I don’t see how polygyny helps in this situation.
Edit: This first point was wrong, but the second point still stands.
Polygyny wouldn’t solve the aforementioned problem if we suppose that the birth rate of men and women is roughly the same. If one man has many wives, some of whom even die, then several other men won’t have any wives.
Kayana@ttrpg.networkto Technology@lemmy.world•ESET in Germany recommends installing Linux as alternative for older HW running Windows not supported by Windows 11English6·4 months agoHardly a surprise, since Windows 10 didn’t need new hardware to run. You could install it on anything.
Well, what problems are you trying to solve by having the classes all access each other’s data members? Why is that necessary?
Kayana@ttrpg.networkto Android@lemdro.id•HSBC UK banning KDE Connect from F-Droid, and non whitelisted keyboardsEnglish14·6 months agoActually, I wouldn’t be surprised if screenshots are disabled in that app considering the rest, to “stop leaking sensitive information”.
Kayana@ttrpg.networkto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•So now I have to PAY you to NOT store files on my device that I don't want?English7·7 months agoCookies required for the website to work (like that one) are totally fine and, in fact, they don’t even have to ask you about them - if they’re not used for tracking. So no, asking each time is definitely avoidable.
Kayana@ttrpg.networkto Games@lemmy.world•Alan Wake, Control developer agrees €15m convertible loan from TencentEnglish407·7 months agoNot only is that headline’s grammar exceptional(ly bad), for a moment I thought the developer of Control was named Alan Wake. Like, how did they manage to butcher that so badly?
There are pros to this:
If the person you blocked can’t see your posts, they can intuit that you’ve blocked them. Then, they might try and find you on other social media to harass you even further, or shift targets to someone else.
If they can see your posts, they have no idea they’ve been blocked, similar to Reddit’s shadow bans. This might make them think you’re just annoyed or rarely look at your DMs, making them invest even more time to uselessly try to contact you.
Of course, I can see the other side too, that you don’t want them to know about any (new) posts you’ve made; but it isn’t as one-sided as you seem to think it is.
Because you don’t need to have significant experience or rent a VPS in order to do that, and I can respect that. We don’t need to force FOSS developers to become proficient in everything.
What needs to happen is some kind of tool (ideally FOSS) that lets you spin up an actual forum with the same difficulty to set it up as Discord.
Kayana@ttrpg.networkto Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•streetlamp post with cardinal directions118·8 months agoBut is the letter facing the direction, or are you looking in the direction if you’re looking at the letter? So, is East behind the camera or in front of it?
Kayana@ttrpg.networkto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•What's with the sheer number of shutdowns recently?English18·8 months agoHuh, TIL.
Regarding your edit, that amount wasn’t the cumulated cost of whatever Limewire were distributing, that would be idiotic indeed; rather the RIAA tried to call for a ruling that somehow those guys were causing $150,000 in damages - per instance. Now the article unfortunately doesn’t state how they possibly tried to justify that number, and I can’t be bothered to research that myself. Another thing that would interest me is how the plaintiff expected them to pay with almost every dollar on Earth.
So while I don’t think this had anything to do with “lost sales”, I do agree with the possible fines and damage calculations not being fit for any sort of realistic purpose at all.
Because I didn’t know absurdism, I read the second one differently at first:
[The] nothing matters.
And I immediately had to think of this gem:
“But it doesn’t do anything!” - “No, it does nothing.”
Possible formula: Tax for n-th house = n-th Fibonacci number + 5 * max(0, n - 2). So low numbers like three get penalized by that linear part, and high numbers grow exponentially due to the Fibonacci number.
“History is written by the victors.” - what I immediately thought of.
