I don’t think he did understand the consequences of his actions. It’s possible the police get involved here, for starters.

“You should punch Nazi’s” is great and all, but when it’s a kid that has their whole life ahead of them that’s a different matter. This incident will probably do lifelong damage to basically every part of his life.

FPTP doesn’t allow for third parties.

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.

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.,

It’s not piracy to shut your ears and plug your eyes whenever an ad is playing … at least not yet. Give the lobbyists a few weeks.

Don’t swap to Ladybird, it won’t be completely secure when (or if) it releases and so far there’s nothing going for it other than it not being Firefox or Chrome. If you’re gonna swap then use the Servo browser which is already actually out.

It was a dog, not Homer.

Ramping up supply costs money, and the AI bubble is on the verge of popping. They’d need to know that this demand would be sticking around before investing in higher fab capacity.
