Those are the same department of costs if you operate a store. Either you have some amount of theft or you have security that prevents theft. Either way you'll have to put the costs on your customers. If your customers feel your prices are too high that just means you are doing a bad job at balancing the two.

At a societal level it's kinda the same. You can invest a lot of money into police or you can invest into social programs so that stealing doesn't seem like a good option to most. You'll have to balance the two.

On both levels it's you the individual that has to bear the costs.

But it also shouldn't take a lawsuit to correct this at a later point. It sounds like she did ask for a raise to the same level as her colleague pretty consistently. Honestly there should just be more tariffs. Making everyone go through the same struggles to get more money seems so inefficient and unfair if the outcome doesn't depend on the actual work delivered but on (sometimes completely unrelated) skills. A software dev doesn't need to know the best strategies in salary negotiations to be a top notch software dev.

Who do you think pays for extra security that prevents theft?

No, but there is a moral distinction to be made between stealing your wallet and stealing from a multi billion operation. Would you agree to that?

What's really important is this: Crime is not on the rise in Germany. The fear is entirely manufactured. The fear is real and explains the results but the fear itself is manufactured.

Yep but with the limitation that you will only ever have 4 people in one mission besides some special hubs

Oh it's quite different! The gameplay loop is centered around PvE in a cooperative style with a handful of different modes and a ton of different maps. It does take place in space but there are also missions that feel less spacey like the planes of eidolon

Warframe! I haven't played in a while but the art style and game in general will always have a place in my heart.

Of the ones on your list I have only played mass effect back in the xbox360 days. It was one of the first games I played. Super good memories. I might need to revisit those if my Xbox is still working

I'm not really sure I get the usefulness of this absolute function. It still returns relative paths if the input was relative and it doesn't resolve "..". What would you use it for where canonicalize doesn't work for you?

You don't know that.

That's not the tone I like to read even as an answer to a statement I don't agree with. No need to get that personal.

I'm not saying nobody should work on this. There is obviously demand or at least big tech is assuming demand. I'm just saying it's not surprising to me a lot of Foss developers don't really care.

I think the biggest problem is that ai for now is not an exact tool that gets everything right. Because that's just not what it is built to do. Which goes against much of the philosophy of most tools you'd find on your Linux PC.

Secondly: Many people who choose Linux or other foss operating system do so, at least partially, to stay in control over their system which includes knowing why stuff happens and being able to fix stuff. Again that is just not what AI can currently deliver and it's unlikely it will ever do that.

So I see why people just choose to ignore the whole thing all together.

That's quite besides my point but I'll answer in two ways:

Firstly what defines "working" isn't really your choice. If the goal is to have fun the silliest stuff can be called "working". If the goal is to escape reality for a bit then pretending to be a mermaid might be quite effective.

Secondly, my point was just that there is a game, played by people that are probably enjoying themselves,, which could probably be translated into a Video game. Just like any other sports.

I really want to see the zygote approach worked out for electron. It's working really well for android but with electron there are just too many different versions used by the different programs for that to make sense.

Afaik there are people actually playing quidditch, brooms and all. So there must be something playable there

I guess but bios was a thing way before uefi and while it apparently also was a pain because people implemented it differently it did work.

Afaik the mein problem with arm is the discoverability of the hardware on the bus. For x86 it's pretty dynamic but arm needs something called a device tree.

Especially with android I don't get it. Every vendor has to maintain their own boot loader and modify the aosp code just to get it to boot on their devices. Is it just to avoid people slapping their own os on their phones?

I never understood why booting arm is such a pain. I mean I get that the current situation is that it is a pain but I don't get why this is the situation.
