“A computer can never be held accountable, therefore a computer must never make a management decision” so the owners are accountable then.

that one ceo died and made so many other health insurers across the US scared that many approved claims they wouldn’t have and didn’t before saving countless lives.

we sacrificed an entire generation stopping nazis before. we can do it again. they didn’t sacrifice their lives for the rest of us years later to let these fascists rise up again. if they were still here, they’d be standing right up front, ready to do it again.

Too bad digg failed a second time

TV over the air had ads to pay for the TV shows and channels you watched because they couldn’t really secure the signal they sent out. but also it wasn’t really supposed to be secure in the first place. but TV production was expensive. so you got commercials, ads and sponsors when you watched.

then cable TV came about. cable TV was supposed to be ad free because you were paying. but then they would have had to fill in for segments when over the air TV was showing ads so instead of that they just showed the same ads and got paid for it. that’s double dipping.

not defending youtube or ads in general, but technically the ad companies don’t pay unless the ad is viewed/served, or only pay depending on how much of the ad is viewed. they aren’t double dipping like this is implying.

youtube is only getting paid if an ad is shown, and depending on the duration of the ad only for the duration of the ad that is shown to the end user. for like s skippable ad, for the first 30 seconds you can’t skip they get paid for that 30 seconds, but if ithe ad is longer say a minute, but the skip button appears after 30 and you press the skip button youtube only gets paid for the 30seconds the ad was displayed. if you don’t skip then they get paid for the amount of time the ad was shown.

if you pay for youtube premium, then they don’t show ads, they don’t get paid for ads not shown. but that’s why you are giving them money. to compensate for the “lost revenue” they aren’t getting from ads.

and for things like adblockers, the ads are not served therefore don’t qualify for being billed and youtube doesn’t get paid. and youtube pays channels based on performance of ads being displayed, and that’s why a lot of channels have both ad spots and sponsor segments. that and youtube doesn’t pay real good for ad revenue unless you are a huge channel.

and then sponsor block skips sponsor sections for you and some sponsors/channels don’t care the contract was do a sponsor segment and those contracts are outside of youtube itself so youtube doesn’t get paid for them, that’s why there isn’t a sponsor skip action when you pay for premium. but i fear sponsors will corrupt and start doing contracts where they track how many times a segment was viewed and pay out based on that metric too.

so Sega won’t be releasing any more games on PS5 or any games on PS6 then? xbox, switch and PC only from now on i guess

same. not on the list and got temporary banned today lol

so is canada. at least the province of ontario. “just one more lane will fix all traffic” for the past 20 years, im sick of hearing about it

i love seeing a wild Canadian Geoff Thew, “professional shitbag” sighting

we’ll rename the cars to “pods”

easier to fire humans an integrate humanoid robots instead of replacing the entire assembly line machinery in a factory. and probably cheaper.

better yet, for those who don’t need glasses, don’t make my disability your fashion trend. yes needing glasses to see is a disability.

He’s fucking bragging about how much if a piece of shit he is that other people want to kill him. Bragging. That’s all his life is about, bragging about this or that

the web layer is the most important part of the internet. without it it wouldn’t have taken off like it did in the 90s. it is the key part that made the internet the internet. without it, the internet we, you and i, wouldn’t be communicating right now.

the US didn’t invent the internet. yes the US made ARPNET, which is the underlying functions that the internet was built upon. but the internet that we know today wasn’t created in the US, the WORLD wide web was created in Switzerland in 1989 by Sir Tim Berners-Lee while working at CERN (the European Organization for Nuclear Research). the world wide web, or the internet, uses a lot of the same protocols that ARPNET created. but ARPNET is not and was not world wide until Sir Tim used the same protocols to allow regular people to traverse ARPNET from around the world. the US built the underlying tech, but Sir Tim Berners-Lee and CERN built the internet on top.

the itnernet wasn’t created by the US. it started as ARPNET, which yes was created in the US. but the internet that we know today wasn’t created in the US, the WORLD wide web was created in Switerland in 1989 by Sir Tim Berners-Lee while working at CERN (the European Organization for Nuclear Research). the world wide web, or the internet, uses a lot of the same protocols that ARPNET created. but ARPNET is not and was not world wide until Sir Tim used the same protocols to allow regular people to traverse ARPNET from around the world. the US built the underlying tech, but Sir Tim Berners-Lee and CERN built the internet on top.

claiming the US created the internet is false, just like saying Thomas Edison invented the light bulb. when Edison bought the patent from two Canadians named Henry Woodward (a medical student) and Mathew Evans (a hotel keeper) from Toronto Ontario, who actually invented the incandescent light bulb 5 years (1874) before edison bought the patent. Henry and Mathew only sold the canadian and US patents in 1879 to edison because they lacked the funds and could not find any investors to manufacture them. at best what edison did was improved the filament inside so they lasted longer. but buying a patent is not the same as inventing it.

just more failure of the US education system.

so brave of him to put his face on nazi propaganda

also you talk about prices going up if they are forced to pay their servers correctly. guess what bud fucking prices have skyrocketed already without them to pay servers properly. and in other first world countries, like in Europe, restaurant food is cheap and they pay their employees a living wage. it’s not that north America restaurants can’t, it’s that they don’t want to and basically want slaves

what is metal if not just concentrated bits of specific rock?
