Lives are more important than shareholder value and no feduciary lawsuit would ever rule otherwise.

Yes I think extra-judicial punishment is a fitting end when judicial punishment fails to even start. Again, what's legal and what's moral are not the same. Luigi took one life sure, but how many lives do you think will be saved because insurance executives are a little more scared of looking like murderes to their customers? Hundreds? Thousands?

If I'm making decisions that directly lead to the death of my customers in exchange for monetary gain then yes please lock me up.

Cog? The guy was the CEO of the insurance company with the highest denial rates in the industry. He wasn't subject to this system he was actively designing and lobbying for it.

Morally it's murder either way. Just because you found a legal loophole doesn't make it not murder morally. There tons of actions that are legal but are morally reprehensible.

It's not a complex calculation. He regularly traded other people's lives for his own money.

Just because there's a few steps between your decision and someone's death doesn't mean your decision didn't cause their death.

With the expected costs of a web browser by the general public being $0, what company would want it that isn't going to do that? Even Firefox survives off ad revenue. There is no "browser market", there's an ad market.

They used cheap to mean inexpensive and you're using it to mean low quality. The price floor is by definition the most inexpensive items.

You're confusing losing land because you can't hold it militarily with negotiating an end to the invasion by ceding land. He's said that no one will negotiate for Ukraine but Ukraine and since the incoming US administration has already said they'll be ending support we really don't have any leverage to encourage them to accept any terms. We can't threaten to remove support that we've already said we're removing.

There's no threat needed. Zalenskyy already knows he's losing US support after January.

This is literally Zalenskyy saying we can't negotiate for him while knowing that he's losing US support in January.

They could negotiate Russia's end to the war using their own resources (ie. Mostly the embargos) but anything Ukraine forfeits would have to be negotiated by them. The US can't just cede another nation's land.

It's not a tip. Amazon is giving them the cash not you. It's more like a bonus

There are tons of chrome-based browsers out there. The real question is what would stop Google from just pivoting to Nickel, the new chromium based browser they launch 15 minutes after they sell off chrome?

Is this GRRM's account?

It's not hatred of labor. It's hatred of those who vote against their best interests.

Yes let's take the most wildly liked billionaire and make them our example. Surely that will convince people to join us.

There's no such thing as an impartial procews that includes humans. Biases will come out either consciously or subconsciously.

In our current system we don't really have a choice. FPTP basically ensures there will only be two viable candidates and they'll come from the established parties.

On the other side of the spectrum packet loss is a key feature of some of the layers below tcp, like path-mtu discovery.
