Yeah, he should have thought about how he was dressed (in the blood of the insured) in that part of town.

You did not think I made my fortune by writing checks did you?

GOONS, HIRED GOONS!

Authorities suggest Thompson was targeted but remain unclear on the motive.

Ummmm, real solid police work here. Although motive might be hard to narrow down, its not like this was a popular CEO.

Wait, you can get assisted death after losing an emotional debate? Or can the winner also partake?

There are way too many of these US dots outside of the US for my liking.

Ha, and more on the same point russia just closed the ruble market. So no more trading in rubles and no more ruble values being released.

Should invest in Rands.

Yes, it was not unclear.

Ohhh you know what would be even better. That if the article complained about ai on LinkedIn was written with ai.

Right?

Entertainingly only really for the federal government. Of all the provinces only Alberta and PEI have broke even or made anymoney.

Not saying there is not potential tax revenues, just that right now most provinces spend more then they collect for one (corruption) reason or another (needing to be seen being “tough” on drugs).

Well this is the most wall st bets sort of thing I have seen on lemmy.

Why would you think anything will go up under orange man? The guy who is kinda famous for being an isolationist? The guy using tariffs to wage economic war on the USs closest allies?

I mean with the same sort of logic, buy South African Rands.

Sorry, I am out of line.

But I do think it could catch on.

Wonder if they tried heating the milk up to 63 degrees C for 30 mins before consumption?

Maybe that would help.

It’s terrifying federal workers

Well yeah, that is clearly the point.

Please tell us what happened in 2014…

I run Linux but I like my windows 7 machine for my living room.

Oh and you can not beleave me about what I did, I am used to it. Even when working at IBM (don’t recommend) I was often told I did not work there with all sorts of exsuses from in and outside the company.

Biden was able to move 6-7 million more people to vote than Kamala, whereas Trump got about the same as he got in 2020.

Trump got more votes then Kamala, that is how elections work. There was not 6-7 million people not voting (2.6 million delta from 2020), but more people showed up for the orange man and this blaming non-voters is just lame.

You, do not. Don’t run old ass windows versions that are not actively supported. This is not a controversial statement.

Do run them, go ahead. Not supported does not mean non functional.

Your attempt to compare your usage vs the usage of a financial institution is not only a false equivocation, it’s particularly stupid in light of the fact specialized contracts exist.

I worked for 15 years in the industry (7 years in the banking division) I am very explicitly comparing nothing as both myself and most banks I worked with are using legacy software in the same way. Its about risk management and understanding what can be done to your system, running an old OS is not on the top of my risk list.

Just backup your data, manage your accounts and passwords with the idea they may be compromised. This is how people not trying to sell you something operate.

often do so under specialized agreements with Microsoft

You use chat GPT for this one? Because this does not say what you think it does.

Second highest voter turnout in the US. A difference of only 2,624,285 as per University of Florida estimates so far (the number is likely to go down).

This excuse is getting old.

One, you are assuming people who did not vote would vote dems.

Two, you are pushing blame to the voters who did not show up (and based on the lack of choice it is wild so many showed up)

Three, by pushing that blame on to voters you are almost asking for this to happen again. (By letting the dems keep being crap, pissing off voters, and getting people angry at their neighbours helps the republicans)
