  But these solar panels will be present on those with hoppers.

  It’s not quite equivalent right? Using an existing plant is cheaper and faster than building a new one?

  Its like saying a datacenter is not financially viable only because top brass decided to use a perfectly good existing one.

  Are you really smart if you need mommy server to function?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does lemmy sites or instances give you a reason why you are banned so you are not doing the same thing ?lsewhere? Or how do I appeal a ban⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You must have said something that the instance found anti-communist, pro-capitalist/liberal, anti-china. you get banned if you get perceived as anti-minority, I think.

  Notice how I said “the instance found”. So it’s not easy to convince them if you run afoul by accident.

  You shouldn’t hide your atrociticies behind antisemitism. It’s poor form.

  Because that’s usually the cheapest part that manufacturers can get away with cheapening iut further.

  Not the parent comment, but we should be aware that and shouldn’t be naive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do arranged marriages persist in many cultures?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like your view of arranged marriage is limited to the US and hence poisoned by Shitty US Laws.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do arranged marriages persist in many cultures?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re simply wrong. Arranged marriage is not a strict definition of no consent. In fact, a lot of the time the girl has the final say in going ahead after an initial exchange of photos and talking face to face, at least that’s how it works in cities and urbanized areas.

  The reason you have this myopic view is that you’re misled into believing that arranged marriage is forced marriage by watching horror stories on the news. We all know the News cherrypicks for shock factor.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do arranged marriages persist in many cultures?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re deliberately saying that’s the only reason and blaming that “men” only want a sex slave. Hence the downvotes.

  You should get your head out of the gutter.

  Or… think like an adult… they have support contracts in place.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"PSN isn't supported in my country. What do I do?" Arrowhead CEO: "I don't know"⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My argument here is that Arrowhead is not some great dev that is helpless.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"PSN isn't supported in my country. What do I do?" Arrowhead CEO: "I don't know"⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Re-enforcing it after demonstrating it clearly works without makes it look scummy and greedy.

  Day 1 policy was that PSN linking was mandatory. Arrowhead execs knew this. Players who bought the game in non-PSN countries shouldn’t have gotten a pop-up banner saying as much instead of the payment screen.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But how would they be able to live on that?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So are you arguing that stock valuations mean nothing?

  billionaires make it difficult to judge their worth… because as pointed out they are trying to not pay taxes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But how would they be able to live on that?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds funny you trying to tax these billionaires and are failing to find any obvious way… which is what these billionaires do to hide from tax and paying their fair share.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨this one goes out to the arts & humanities⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  less than 500 years to create general intelligence will be a blip in time.

  You jynxed it. We aren’t gonna be around for 500 years now are we?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why crypto could be green power's unlikely new best friend⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This “tell me you … without telling me …” phrase often comes out of know-it-alls who at the same time as putting down others’ knowledge; come across as smug experts who have nothing better to say than to trot out this phrase.
