Endless meetings all focused around creating value for shareholders at any expense

Legally the product is no longer their priority, maximising shareholder profits is their priority.

Not many companies manage to not get twisted to a worse product for the customers, though their ads get really good

I feel like aircon wasn't as common back then, especially strong enough to cool all of that

Socialise cost and privatise profits.

Been the play for awhile now.

Three screens billed as "business expense" actually used as a sim racing rig.

But you will end up filling any screen space you have. When coding I very quickly fill out the space, to see files and folders I am intereacting with, communication apps, websites, IDE, ticket screen. Some days I wish I had 4.

I thought peoples big problem with it was not wanting to give others their number to use signal? Like I meet Joe Blog online and don't want to give him my real number to chat.

Less people worried that signal had their number?

The car equivalent of launch DLC that should have been in the base game

Hoping the Foss community can help me explain why it seems keyboards like AnySoftKeyboard haven't been updated for years. Google play - Nov 2021 F-Droid - Jan 2022

The GitHub still seems quite active with changes being made 3 days ago. Is there a reason these aren't pushed to the standard distribution channels? I also looked at FlorisBoard and it seemed to show a similar pattern.

Are there any other FOSS keyboards people can recommend for Android?

They own 50% of the company but they do not get a seat on the board. From my understanding that was a big part of OpenAI accepting the deal.

The stock price will fall if we don't make more money then we did last year.

  • But why?

Because we are legally obliged to do what is best for shareholder, or they can sue us.

  • Right so the company needs to make more money again and again and again until the company or the world dies

About sums it up

Quite honestly it was a very confusing referendum. The question seemed simple on the surface but as soon as you ask questions very quickly it was hard to find answers. I think this confusion is the reason the majority voted no, they were scared to choose yes for something they didn't understand. I tried to understand and still couldn't find a straight answer of what this referendum was actually about.

I am using Organic Maps but sometimes I would like to view an area with a satellite view. I could go back to google maps for this but I was wondering if the community knew of an alternative.

Bit of a different one. I have some credits for audible and I am looking for your favourite books on the subject. Fiction or non fiction it doesn't really matter.

Normally I'd google it and slap "reddit" on the end, but I thought I'd give lemmy a chance to show me some answers

Usually I have come across this with poorly done DLCs. They offer some bonus item in game.

So if you buy the game with all the DLC in a sale then when you start the game you have all this extra stuff you wouldn't normally have. I can't recall the game but there was one game where I actively had to not use the DLC items otherwise the first part of the was way too easy and bordering on boring.

So nice to see the human race really taking things seriously.

Went to a festival and had 1 day before the festival started. Hiked up the nearby mountain and was greeted with semi frozen lakes and plenty of snow. Being my first time seeing snow it was an amazing day, even got to slide down some of it on my rain jacket.
