  • As if it’d be better run by private interests in the US 😂

    The letter was sent on January 22 and suggests the debt-financed $55 billion acquisition, which will purportedly result in PIF holding a 93.4 percent stake in the Battlefield and Apex Legends publisher, will incentive layoffs, offshoring, studio closures, and other cost-cutting measures.

    “incentive”

    Also, isn’t this what yanks have been doing for decades? Don’t seppo businesses regularly fire a bunch of employees before the end of the financial year to have “record-breaking fourth quarter” and then hire back a bunch of people? Painting the Saudis as worse capitalists than the USAians is just hilarious






  • Ah, you ran into neckbeards. This is a typical interaction with them. They are afraid because they are finally in a position of power digitally whereas in real life, nobody cares about them. Honestly, ask LLMs https://chat.mistral.ai/ or something else.

    I have Linux but am a casual user and my experience with Linux users has been nothing short of terrible. Before LLMs, I had to either find the answer on some *overflow website, the ubuntu forums, or just give up and move on. Now, LLMs help me out more than humans ever did. LLMs don’t tell you you’re stupid, they don’t ridicule your question, they don’t ridicule you. Of course they can be dangerous if they give you bad commands, but so can humans.

    If you must talk to humans online to get help, what I’ve seen work is to tell them they are wrong and that your solution works 100%. Some neckbeard will show up, call you stupid, and give the solution. And if that doesn’t work, just ridicule them and say it didn’t work, which means your solution is the right one. It’ll make them try to prove you wrong even harder 🤷







  • Anything that puts a layer between your skin and the sun and car exhaust, probably more helpful than harmful.

    That definitely isn’t true. Acid puts a layer between you and the sun and isn’t good for your skin. There are creams that dry your skin leading to cracks and death of certain healthy bacteria on your skin. The cracks can expose your body to fungi and dangerous bacteria. Things like mixing suncream and anti-mosquito spray can lead to serious rashes and skin irritation. Creams can also have a low SPF and damaging effects to the skin, giving you a false sense of security while destroying your skin even more.
