    “Linux doesn’t have viruses”

    Just because you haven’t found any doesn’t mean they don’t exist. Most people using Linux probably wouldn’t be getting viruses on Windows either.

    Once ‘free Microsoft office linux’ is a common web search result the incidence of viruses will probably go up a lot.





  • There is functionally no difference between a 145% and a 245% tariff.

    The cost of going through a black market rather than a clear or grey one is likely already below 145% and the grey one is likely to fill most gaps in the long run anyways.

    Grey market tariff skirting might be Canadian or UK companies slapping their logos and “made in X” marker after making a tiny change to the product. The barrier to entry on this is quite low as is the risk. If your profit is capped at 145% you still have a lot of room to make money.

    He cited one “ridiculous” example where entries went wrong. In the submission for Telekinesis, the description was written in neither Scots nor English and read: “Telekinesis es a form of movnig ebjocts with yor maind.”

    I’m sorry but even for a 12 year old that’s comedically stupid.

    This whole thing is just so incomprehensiblely stupid and real world usage numbers prove it:

    According to Wikimedia Statistics, Cebuano Wikipedia currently reels in tens of thousands of page views from the Philippines each month.

    English Wikipedia, meanwhile, gets more than 100 million Filipino viewers per month.

    If people wanted AN AUTOMATED TRANSLATION they could just go to the English page and use one of the many free page translation tools that exist. Who even asked him to do this? Or is it just more white saviour complex?
