I’d agree with your first statement if they were getting the boot in the place of a company with honesty, value, integrity, quality and security.
GM is none of those things, and it’s highly unlikely they’ll ever be any of those things.
This is bad news.
This is it right here.
If I want to watch something, can I do it within 2 minutes?
Now? If it’s not in the current app I’m in and featured, unlikely.
Piracy? Through a handful of services, local or remote, I can be watching that movie in one place in 30 seconds in the highest quality.
What service was once decent has been ruined by capitalism again.
Amplitube is great, I really like BIAS as well.
They’re counting on people being complacent and just whitelisting.
The problem is, they’re probably right to try the tactic too. People need those dopamine hits.
I had a recruiter after me hard one time. They had a company they were trying to grow and had already plucked away a couple of guys from my team.
He offered what he thought was an aggressive offer based on what the other guys said they were making.
I asked about WFH, he said the company preferred people in the office to collaborate. This was my third time asking this, the first two times I told him this was a non-starter, and this offer was to try to go above and beyond that to sway me with dollar signs.
I laid out the costs that were involved: commuting, car, gas, childcare, lunch, etc. and how his aggressive offer still had me coming up behind, and that’s before I even take into account time and comfort lost.
He’s called back again twice, and it’s the same freaking question, “any movement on work from home?”
We all know the answer.
Definitely. Android has tiers, from flagship down.
You can get an Android that surpasses any iPhone in specs and price no problem.
It’s basically just their Outlook web app. It offers no extra function, and breaks a LOT of old functionality.
There’s a registry key to turn off the button.
This is for the Netherlands, but it’s about the anti-piracy group not allowing defeats in court on the basis of GDPR and ISP refusal get in the way of a good harassment.
Good read if you want higher blood pressure.
There’s so much we don’t know about the brain, I can’t see implants being anywhere close to a success until the brain is significantly better understood
I think this could have been smelled in the water for a long while. Tim Cook was trusted to steer the rudder but his specialty is supply chain management, and I don’t think anyone can say he’s done a bad job.
But. On the R&D side I don’t think people could say he’s done a great job.
The ideas have dried up. When you go “safe” at CEO you make money, but you limit your ceiling, which, once again, with Apple is already breaking the mold.
Consumer electronics is saturated. There is little to no breakthrough there anymore.
Evolution is outside that, but outside that might not be in Tim Cook or Apple’s executive suite’s realm anymore.
Slides from 20 years ago.
This is news, yes, especially considering that Apple made a deal with the devil considering its new self-reported bloom as privacy focused.
But news headlines are acting like Apple just said this today, and that is complete headline bait.
Definitely.
If you’re running Radarr in a docker I’ve found that certain things can get reset on docker restart as well. You could try pulling a different Radarr image.
That’s not how this works at all.
There are plenty of ways to deal with this, and issue a death penalty to the corporation while not punishing the workers:
Forced turnover of executives and board members (with jail time and high % fines), corporate watchdog for x amount of years
Dissolve the mega-corp into smaller corporations, and/or force all subsidiaries into a planned disengagement from parent company
Bail-out in the form of state ownership by government buying majority stake
In any of the above, or even in a complete mega-corp dissolution the demand doesn’t disappear. If you want to have the argument that these “oh so wonderful stewards of business” are the reason people have jobs in the first place, you can’t ignore that demand is the reason those very same executives have jobs too.
If they tear it down, someone will build something else to replace it.
Listen here, you little shit
When the fuck are they going to stop treating these companies and executives with kid gloves?
Why do they do these things, shred evidence, lie on the stand, and break almost every white collar law there is? Because there are little to no consequences. And if there are it’s for people in the “out” group. New money.
Crack down on all of them. Shredding evidence should be an admission of guilt. Full stop.
There’s no soulseek integration yet, but that would be a game changer, the collections in there are incredible, especially when trying to find EPs, singles and rarities. We’ve been waiting for a good long while though.
In the meantime, it’s a lot of work to build a collection, even with lidarr, torrents, semi-private, private trackers and usenet.
For soulseek, I’d recommend setting a blackhole torrent client that points to the soulseek download folder, them always make sure you download the folder not the files from the share. That will make importing the files a lot easier into lidarr if you choose to keep that as your centralized download tool.
There are also extended scripts for lidarr that will pull music from various sources as well.
For iOS I really like Vinegar.
If not, we can expect to see legal channels raising their prices again to cover the losses caused by piracy.
And with the last paragraph the whole article loses its legitimacy as propaganda. I mean I should have expected as much considering the source, but I still wanted to see how well researched it was.
No, this is a case where people are rebelling against a broken system, that didn’t need to be broken in it’s mostly recovered state.
No, the general paying public shouldn’t shame pirates for their actions, they should shame the companies for their actions that have driven them to this. Companies aren’t your friends, they don’t care about you, they just want your money.
Almost any CEO + empathy doesn’t seem right.
At least 20% of people in executive positions are psychopaths. Literally psychopaths. Not sociopaths, full on psychos.
I can almost guarantee that the Venn diagram of psychopaths and executives at Fortune 500 companies is a circle.
This feels like something a C-suite came up with to carve out extra profit and had some bean counters crunch the numbers on, fluffed them up a bit and then had the company roll with it on his idea.
I’m usually disappointed by consumer apathy, but from everyone I talk to who has a car with a screen, if they have CarPlay/Android Auto they couldn’t do without it, and if they don’t have it it’s the biggest thing they wish they had.
