I received a framed picture of my parents, from my parents. They said it was because I didn’t have a picture of them hung up in my house.

It’s difficult to call for Trudeau to resign and also vote that you have confidence in Trudeau as a leader. Obviously he doesn’t want to hand the government to the Conservatives but supporting Trudeau wasn’t winning any favours either.

Make sure to add “…in Mario Kart”

You’re right. It’s not just executives. I believed the criticism was over inflating executive salaries, but it is indeed all salaries. Wikimedia operated with a total salary of $26million in 2014 but now has salaries totalling $107million. Quadrupling their salaries in 10 years with little explanation. You’re assuming it goes to IT infrastructure workers, but they don’t explain where it actually goes.

The total for just the executives is $88million. Leaving $19million for the 700 employees, or $27,000 each. You are donating to executives.

Edit: whoops, it’s total salary in 2021, I misread

Here’s their audit report. 59.8% of their expenses are in executive salaries, a total of $107,793,960 this year. They list internet hosting as 1.7% of their expenses at $3,116,445.

No they specifically only target companies that cannot defend themselves. World of Warcraft has battle pets that you can capture by throwing cages at them and then train and fight them against other battle pets. Nintendo isn’t about to file a lawsuit against Microsoft.

He has refused to allow Ukrainian troops to use Starlink within Russian occupied regions to avoid “conflict escalation”.

Most hackers are responsible. Hackerone is a site where anyone can sign up and start claiming bug bounties for reporting vulnerabilities. They claim to have 2 million active hackers. Just like anything else, the people breaking the law are in the minority and probably resorted to it after trying to make money the legal way.

It seems like it was a DMCA takedown request. Anyone can submit these to content hosters and the hoster has to follow the process, which typically means removing the content until it can be proven that it isnt violating copyright. The problem isn’t the takedown request, but that it was given to itch.io’s registrar instead of itch.io itself. It’d be like asking to takedown youtube from the web because someone reposted your video on it.

yt-dlp can download videos from most sites. Comes with a lot of advanced features if you need them.

I enjoy not being able to tell if something was made to be funny or made to satisfy someone’s fetish.

New report claims people with hobby spend more time watching videos about hobby than doing hobby

The corporation is Service Corporation International. You can scroll down to their controversies section to see how they regularly skirt laws and regulations and receive little to no penalty to their billion dollar a year operations.

I worked a job where not getting your tasks done would result in termination. Working overtime required permission from management, who never gave it. Working overtime unauthorized was also a fireable offence. The way it was phrased was “lots of employees work unauthorized overtime to get their work done, but they don’t ask for payment, so we look the other way.”

Thank you. It makes me lose hope for the future of humanity everytime I read comments saying we should remake the mistakes of our past. If we had nukes in 1914, the world would have ended because the Archduke of Austria was shot.

The Archduke of Austria, a title that doesn’t exist anymore, was the heir to rule Austria-Hungary, a country that doesn’t exist anymore. He was killed by a Bosnian because he didn’t like being a part of Austria-Hungary. Bosnia would later become a part of Yugoslavia, a country that doesn’t exist anymore. How many nukes would have been launched to save these meaningless titles and borders?

Wikipedia says she has released 25 singles and 3 albums since Friday and none of them even got close to the same success. Having rich parents must be nice.

A child will ruin your future! Why aren’t you having children?
