The comment you replied to originally was talking about why billionaires should support a democratic society.

If the society is not democratic, it would be authoritarian. Therefore what I explained could happen.

A billionaire cannot exist in 2 countries at the same time. It doesn't matter if his company is multinational, he isn't.

If you jail that billionaire, which is not hard as a state if said billionaire resides in your country, you can "convince" him to give even assets in foreign countries.

That's why they removed his passport.

To anyone unfamiliar with Spain politics, it might not be even noticed.

But it is incredible that the party with most scandals and corruption (PP) claims that they'll party will do less corruption than them. Why don't the media give attention to other parties that have less corruption than PSOE instead of the masters of corruption PP?

We no longer live in a 2-party country.

What chat? Is that a mastodon feature?

I can block .ml communities in my GUI. But I can't block its users, unless I go 1 by 1. Blocking the communities is big, but not enough.

Most legislation is not done through petitions like these.

The EU is composed of tens of countries with very different cultures. And plenty of parties.

In the US there are only 2 parties. And they mostly vote in favour of whatever their party wants.

Having multiple parties means that it is very rare for a single party to have 50% of the vote. Which means they have to make agreements constantly. Which is very time consuming.

Let's say you have parties ABCDEF. Parties A and B are big, the other small.

Party A wants to make a law. It either needs help of B, or 2 of the small parties. Parties BC are immediately opposed. So it has to convince D, E or F. D will only support it if they can pass another bill. That other bill is a deal breaker for E and F.

Now A's only option are E and F. So if they want to have that bill passed, they'll have to give E and F whatever they want. Which probably A doesn't want. So even though A is a big party, it is impossible for them to pass that bill.

So you're saying that GTA VI is only going to be used by the developers?

And how does tech companies putting AI results on every interaction of mine count as a user? I never read their bullshit, yet it's all over my screen, wasting both insane amounts of energy and valuable screen space.

Ignoring the shitty quick maths. Those are energy costs of employing people. Those programmers and artists won't stop needing AC and a computer if you get rid of the videogame industry, they'll move to another industry with AC and computers.

The supreme court gave total immunity to the president while Biden was president. He didn't use it a single time.

I don't know how hackaday works. Is literally anyone allowed to write articles full of non-factual information?

Rust: has stronger typing than C. This guy: I don't like rust since it's weakly typed.

Also this guy: doesn't uses cargo because it downloads from the internet without taking the 5 seconds of research to know that --offline exists.

Also this guy: I don't like that rust calls C unsafe. It's safer than assembly.

The guy is just dumb as rocks.

Seeing this I think now it's more than half the US.

Probably they'll point at this and say "finally, a politician that does what he promises, I should vote for him next time"

 

For those that don't know: Mount Balrior Raid Expert is an achievement of the new W8 raid. To get that achievement you have to obtain 100 points for each of the bosses of the wing. You obtain one point for each person in your squad for whom it was the first kill time ever that they kill that boss.

  1. It is a pyramid scheme. By design, only about 1/11 players can get it (at best).
  2. It encourages people that don't wanna train to do trainings. They are irritated more easily and are way less patient towards new players. Because they don't wanna train new people, they only want to get the achievement.
  3. It will only be harder as time goes on to get this achievement, further increasing the toxicity of it, as people rush to get it.
  4. It makes non-training runs worse. If there is an underperformer, you can't kick him because people will get angry that they wont get points for the achievement and they will leave. If you don't kick him, you'll both waste time on easily preventable wipes and people will also leave because of it.

Training runs should be done by people that actually want to train. If you want to encourage trainings, you should reward re-clearing wings, doesn't matter if it's a training run or not.

 

I want to do basically this:

struct MyStruct < T> {
    data: T
}

impl < T> for MyStruct < T> {
    fn foo() {
        println!("Generic")
    }
}

impl for MyStruct < u32> {
    fn foo() {
        println!("u32")
    }
}

I have tried doing

impl < T: !u32> for MyStruct < T> {
    ...
}

But it doesn't seem to work. I've also tried various things with traits but none of them seem to work. Is this even possible?
