Hum… You think I was collecting virus in the system folders?
And Linux could do backups perfectly well back then. I just didn’t have offline backups of the virus, and the online one got erased too. Why would Linux do OS snapshots anyway? It’s not something one would need.
Those things used to circulate so much. I had a collection of computer virus that came by my computer by somebody’s floppy, downloads, etc.
Then, by 2008 I decided to look try one option in an anti-virus software that I didn’t know what it did… it erased the entire collection.
America is a single continent too, or 3 subcontinents if you like to divide things.
(Turns out the OP’s definition is completely wrong, but who cares?)
Sid likes 3m high tunnels. Make sure to elevate your house’s hoof appropriately.
Somebody has to sell it. How do they separate their customers?
Oh, I see.
Good point. I didn’t notice the huge empirical test for it running right now.
Yes, inequality is increasing in the US.
But I don’t really get how that relates. Anyway, may point is that if you bracket the tax at high enough incomes, maybe not even a 99% marginal tax rate will suffice for making rich people move away. Those people are rich, they don’t care about spending some money to live where they want.
The same is not true about the poor, by the way. It’s easy to tax them so much that they leave.
And Laffer focusing his work on the rich was the cheapest and most plain sell-out on the academic history.
The way that theory is framed is the most ridiculous thing in the world. The rich are the least sensitive people to price increases.
There’s a lot of people saying “well, not the year… but 2026 is going to be quite the year for Linux desktops” over the internet.
It’s easy to see where they are coming from. They just have more faith in Humanity than me.
You have some of the world’s cheapest electricity wholesale. You also have a huge variance in prices to end-user, with the people that complain on the internet being among the most expensive in the world… because, of course, people that get cheaper prices don’t complain.
Also, yes, electricity in Germany is expensive as fuck.
Hum… At about 100m/year right now. I used to be faster than that.
Using left-handed coordinates systems is just mean!
If “our” means on the US, you may have to take a look at your electricity monopolies for it to make any difference.
And teleport back back, right?
… Right?
spending cycles trawling through everything
Beats spending cycles indexing everything and never search them.
A strong tourism industry in a small city does displace everything else. It’s one version of the Dutch disease that actually happens even when the government doesn’t actively cause it.
It’s hard to cause a large gas explosion by carrying a flame. Gas tends to diffuse, so you get small explosions that dissipate the problem before you reach the large concentrations.
That said, “hard” does not mean “impossible”. History is full of counterexamples. But it is much easier to make trouble by igniting the flame after you are inside.
Also, apes doing inter-generational genocides in the wild…
