The point isn’t to absolve people of making bad decisions, but that doesn’t mean the companies whose tools provide dangerous advice in a friendly and factual manner should be without accountability.

Consider that people in all possible situations and mental health conditions have access to these tools.

Huh? That’s reality.

It’s not like it needs to be perfect in form.

Your middle finger and ring finger are also linked. Keeping only the ring finger straight is more difficult than curling only your pinkie.

Yeah. Also fascists are notoriously hypocritical. Their leaders in particular don’t actually believe their own propaganda, they will approve and condemn whatever is conducive to their politics and propaganda. Why would we take their horrid worldview more seriously than they do.

This isn’t even beer, it’s a canned headache.

Sci-fi plans to “save humanity” from catastrophic climate change usually remain in the planning / CGI stage. That’s much cheaper, and it is all you need to placate people who might otherwise make demands about our economy and ecology here on earth.

You can just ask the rocket to not explode.

Fair enough. Clearly I’m not that in the loop on the details, and I agree there should be a way to use it without relying on smartphones. I don’t use a banking nor paypal app today either.

But Visa and Mastercard are making a big play to shift the European market towards the US model where their credit cards are used for everything, so time is of the essence. For that reason I’m okay with some drawbacks, because there’s at least a chance they will be addressed down the line. Also combating the payment duopoly and circumventing US-based systems are major wins for consumers already. I further hope it would hopefully over time see adoption in other countries as well as a real alternative to CCs when travelling.

Wow. I was so engrossed by the narrative that after one hour of listening to it, I genuinely felt betrayed.

I was talking about offline processing. But the 14-day return (and other consumer protections) hinge on the vendor playing along. If they don’t, your bank just says “you authorized the transaction, SOL”.

This is the reality with SEPA transactions even in cases of blatant fraud. Your bank tells you to sue the recipient in court, they won’t do a thing for you.

Money transfers are too slow, too cumbersome, and do not offer any consumer protection. They aren’t designed for POS processes or small-time transactions.

Yes, replacing PayPal is exactly what this is supposed to do, plus VESA Debit and Maestro which are already a thing of the past.

Fuck Zionists, fuck Israel. The Hague is the least for these bastards.

Because most LGBTQ+ people aren’t working class?? Bruh. So much for the reactionary take on social issues

Worse. He believed them.

It looks so dumb playing coy when the whole world knows what’s up.

But whatever. At least they’re vaguely standing together against the most blatant imperialism - now that European land is immediately threatened.

“below” means the entire column below. Xavi and Tom fulfil these requirements.

You use your tablet as monitor? How does that work, KDE Connect over WiFi or something?

I do feel bad for them. These are terrible conditions to keep them in. The cage doesn’t even have a floor

There’s basically no lactose in properly aged cheese. Too much of it will do a number on your guts regardless.

Ha, spoken as if they really learned anything from this.
