Yeep there are quite a few of these that get them into the hands of disadvanteged people or underfunded schools and such.

No :)

Idk maybe, but it might be interesting for non game applications like AR apps and such

Putting the entire population on vitamin D supplements would be too expensive for the country’s national health service, he told me.

Im not in the UK, but everyone around me is taking Vitamin D supplements. You can buy a years supply for a couple dozen euros, so its really not a financial issue at all.

How did you solve it?

How long does your pubic hair have to be to qualify as underpants?

All their big multiplayer games have lootboxes and stuff like that.

Eh its not too bad. 43% of study participants regained less than 50% of their lost weight. So i would say its quite effective even long term, just not 100% effective.

France was also leading the charge in the shutdown of those other encrypted phone services. They claimed that those were only used by criminals but never provided any evidence. They also broke multiple laws during their investigation. So yes the french government definitely is dirty in this regard and deserves calling out.

Yeah thats about what i expected.

That is very interesting 🤔. Thanks!

I was considering buying Risk of Rain 2 on sale yesterday for 9€ but buying all the DLCs costs 45€.

Eh i considered that it might be meant as a horny joke, but wanted to voice my disgust for post death AI slop anyways.

Its true that the dead cant care, but living people like parents, friends and other siblings might. I can absolutely see someone being deeply hurt by this kind of fake technological necromancy.

Its not morbid, its disrespectful. Let dead people be dead.

Even at 1000$ it will most likely outperform any 1000$ prebuilt you can buy. If they market it like this it can absolutely work at that price point.

Which brings us back to the issue of all the empty and unused housing which is used to artificially increase rent levels. There is actually more supply than demand, but the supply is being limited by the gatekeepers (corporate and individual landlords). With proper legislation this would improve quite a bit.

How is this different when every house for rent is owned by an individual?

Obviously there should be limits to individual land ownership too…

In Germany they are called “Heuschrecken” which translates to “Locusts” because thats how they operate.

Only in german: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heuschreckendebatte

This is what librewolf translated the first section to:

A locust debate in Germany in April and May 2005 over a statement by the then SPD chairman Franz Müntefering is referred to as a locust debate. This compared the economic action of some “anonymous investors” with locust plagues.

The term “locust” has since been regarded in German political parlance as a derogatory animal metaphor for private equity companies and other forms of equity participation, such as in the public-private partnership model, with allegedly short-term or excessive return expectations, such as hedge funds or so-called vulture funds.

The term and debate have been criticized variously, including as in parts anti-Semitic and anti-American.

The last part is super funny to me, because it just speaks to the way that the defenders of these investment tactics think.

I went and looked at the referenced “vulture fund” phrase and was not disappointed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulture_fund
