Under this running metaphor, that’d translate to Communism. Which I absolutely think would be beneficial if we could just adopt it today, but I don’t think the western world as a whole is ready for that transition.

Under Capitalism, the best we can hope for is employees

I completely understand that neither would be very nimble but I’d expect with how large I’m sure both ships are (an assumption, I know) they shouldn’t need to be nimble to be able to avoid a collision if they’re so visible

I think you’re right, he sees the US people as customers rather than employees though.

And a Casino aims to extract as much money as possible from it’s customers.

If only the US had a businessman in charge that could fix all of the economic problems of the country, damn the social unrest. Exactly what the republican voters were asking for…

Welcome, I hope you enjoy your time here too

I have definitely found that to be the case. It helps to sort by new too 😅

This sounds legit to me and I’m an expert, because I too have a grandmother

Not from this post obviously, but I’m a newbie from Reddit and excited for what Lemmy has to offer

Oh, in that case I take it back.

God, I hate this timeline!

I’m glad it’s not just me

Was it actually a US-Poland spat?

I thought it was just Musk running his mouth on Twitter as per.

If that’s the case I think it’s a dangerous game for the wider world to conflate Musk’s actions with the US as a whole

Edit: Seems like it was also US official/s taking part. What a wonderful world we live in 🙃

Now, I’m no expert but as I understand it, the North Sea is a pretty big place.

How is this even possible with modern navigation and communication systems? Even archaic, navigation and communication systems would be able to prevent this from happening. A crows nest would probably be able to avoid this from happening.

Am I crazy?

I think this is the winner. Pretty much exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much!

Oh awesome. I’ve never heard of it, I’ll have to check it out

Nice, good job fixing the issue

Difficult to say without seeing the HTML and CSS you’ve mentioned. My first guess was that it could be “pointer-events: none” was the cause but I believe that would stop the URL hover too, so not likely to be that.

I’m not too sure of your experience in non-wordpress web dev so I apologise if this is a stupid question, but have you inspected the html in browser? You’d likely get a much clearer idea of what’s going on under the hood and could inform a fix

A brain/computer interface. But like you say, depending on the state of tech companies maybe only as an input (I can manipulate computers without allowing them to send a signal of any kind to me).

It’d just be for stuff like mentally dictating note taking, being able to “Google” my thoughts (probably best to send the output to my phone rather than directly into my brain)

I’m so glad we’re on the same page. I’ll go back to the people who are actually open and welcoming to new people rather than the ones that try their hardest to condescend and belittle when I am justifiably suspicious of a random unknown file

I don’t remember asking what Debian was. I demanded an answer to the question, “would you download an unfamiliar file from a stranger without any context or description of what it is” (paraphrasing because I don’t remember exactly what I said). And that demand was only because of the condescending comment I was replying to.

I can admit I have been disrespectful to three people, but only in retaliation to a disrespectful comment levied at me first. Everyone else I have had a pleasant discussion with and thanked them for their time and help. I deserve as much respect as anyone else here does, why did you and the others feel justified being disrespectful to me and expecting me to just allow that to happen without me calling it out for what it is?

And I did read the links you posted, I just don’t see how they are relevant to this case. I thought it could have been a productive discussion, and other than this thread and three particularly rude and unwelcoming people, it has been.

I asked if anyone knows of a resource. I didn’t demand a response. Are you seriously suggesting that people in the open source community see sharing information as a bad thing? That is honestly baffling 😂
