- Comment on The McDonald's employee who called on Luigi has never received their "reward", folks chasing the 100k for Kirk may not either... 4 days ago:
I believe that but I do have to wonder how much of that is due to no credible leads being offered on most cases vs them just cheating their own narcs. “Money paid” vs “Money offered” doesn’t give any clarity to that.

I feel bad that his children had to witness that, and even if they hadn’t been there (which they were) they’d undoubtedly have the video clip shoved in their faces eventually. That’s a hell of a way to lose a parent.
It’s what he wanted. Quick, too.
It is fucked for those kids though. Not their fault.

Arabic is a very fragmented language though how do you decide which dialect to learn? Spanish has a lot of variants too but they’re all pretty much still mutually intelligible. I’ve heard that’s not so true for Arabic.

“Niños” can mean kids in general, regardless of gender. “Niñas” would be a group of girls (children). “Niños” can mean a group of boys (children) or a group of kids (mixed genders).

There’s some truth here but it’s definitely not THE reason the rich are rich, not even close.

I’m waiting to see exactly how the UK plans to compel me, someone who lives outside the UK with a Lemmy server hosted outside the UK, to follow their rules.
If they find me non-compliant, they can block my site.

Most Android apps can be run under a mini-VM in the Linux systems I’ve tried - but some apps won’t function well that way (banking, NFC tickets, etc)

(non-Android) Linux phones aren’t really ready for daily driving even for relatively advanced users - but it looks like we’re gonna have to deal with it anyhow

- Comment on Bring out the trumpets and pour out the beer 2 weeks ago:
There’s still “IRS Free File”, which is a different thing where you have to go through a middle man to get it while they try their damndest to “upgrade” you to the paid version. And presumably they got some kind of money from the US gov either way.
Direct File was a sane program that cut them out and let people file their taxes completely directly. The leeches lobbied against it.
Sigh. I used Direct File last year and it was great. Back to FreeTaxUSA I guess. The least shitty option I’m aware of.
