Wasn’t Denuvo cracked for this game already? The hell is the point of having ANY drm at that point?

Wut?

Alchemist and Battlemage cards were fine.

Edit: oh no. It’s a pivot to AI compute 🤦‍♂️

Why does, not taxing moving money end public funding

Because eventually everyone is below the “wealth cap”. Which means no-one pays any further tax. Why would anyone accrue more wealth at that point?

Okay, it can be 2%, and this is enough.

If we’re taxing all transactions, then yes, sounds about right.

Because when the government owns everything, that means the people in government become rich.

Are you suggesting we privatize everything?

Wealth control means giving them the wealth, and not owning by the government.

Ok, but how do decisions get made then?

Government are systems. Just because you change the structure, doesn’t make it not a government. It sounds like you want better government, not “no government”.

Which I agree with.

The fuck do you mean by “wealth control”?

Are you referring to UBI?

It sounds like what youre sctually arguing for, is an asset cap. Where any property above a certain cap goes to the government.

If the cap is 10M, how do we fund UBI, infrastructure and emergency services once everyone is below that cap?

Current economies are powered by the movement of money. So we tax the movement of money. No-one gets anything without spending their assets in some way, including the rich.

You are suggesting that taxes would somehow work better, if we taxed value that was sitting still. Which isn’t entirely false, but you are also claiming that taxation of moving money should be ended entirely. Which simply won’t work. That would eventually lead to the end of public funding.

You cant fix loopholes without taxing all billionaires until none exists, because they will constantly bribe government. Even if you fixed loopholes, they will create intentionally.

Exactly. How is your proposal a solution?

Of course assets have value. But to tax them fairly, that value needs to be defined! Impartially, too boot! And can you imagine the governmental overhead of constantly defining the values of shifting assets for tax purposes, regardless whether they are being bought or sold?

Your suggestion is as exploitable as the current system. Maybe worse!

They are already doing this. 'Spending faster than they earn"

Yea. I said that.

as many “milllionares” do

you are still thinking like income tax

What do you mean by income tax? Because clearly you aren’t understanding what I mean.

I mean ALL income. Of any kind. No loopholes. The problem isn’t conceptual. It’s practical. The law hasn’t kept up with the bookkeeping shenanigans the rich get up to. In fact, the rich actively influence current legislation to their benefit.

You’re arguing for a complete conceptual shift for no reason, when the actual problem is corruption.

What’s really needed, is just look at how the rich are avoiding taxation, and closing the legal loopholes they use. Which your “wealth tax” won’t do. Especially as “wealth” doesn’t actually have a value until it’s bought or sold.

And would a “wealth” tax not have an inherent loophole in that the “rich” could avoid paying tax by simply spending faster than they earn, or even staying in debt, as many “milllionares” do?

And would it not punish poor people who try to save up, by taxing them more the more they save up?

Would it not make renting vs owning even more of a problem? Poor people would be encouraged to rent as much as possible in order to have as little “wealth” as possible? While the rich could continue to charge whatever they want to cover the costs.

That doesn’t answer my question.

A workers salary ≠ Income

It’s one form of it.

Stocks are income. Inheritance is income. Land appreciation is income. If you give me 50 bucks as a gift, that’s income.

How is your conceptual wealth tax, not just the same as what income tax should already be?

The problems you list are all loopholes in the applicable laws, not income tax as a concept.

You get me?

What is the difference between income tax and your “wealth” tax?

Is it not just the exact same thing, but applied at a different point in the process?

If you’re about to answer that wealth can increase in value without income… That’s still income. Which a lot of countries do tax when someone goes to liquidate an asset that has appreciated in value.

Looks at numbers.

Subtracts money being spent, from money being earned.

Huh.

Are you sure?

Blueberry?

Efistub. It’s the fastest, and has the fewest display transitions with plymouth.

I do still have grub for booting btrfs snashots, available as a separate UEFI entry.

EXT4 is your all-rounder. Unix feature complete and reliable. No actually big downsides that would make it insufficient for, well, anything.

BTRFS is your complex and feature rich option. All the modern file system features like copy-on-write, snapshots, subvolumes, deduplication. Good for putting an operating system or user files on. Stuff you might want to snapshot or sort into subvolumes, etc.

XFS has some neat features too, but it has one main focus, performance. The difference isn’t massive since it’s just a file system, but for the fastest transfers speeds, with the smallest CPU impact, nothing beats XFS afaik. It’s also fully unix feature complete, so it has no trouble with symlinks, hardlinks, permissions, etc. EXT4 can theoretically be faster if handling a ton of tiny files, but game files are usually above that threshold.

“Hey… Nice mass surveillance system you got there, mind if I have a turn?”

It boggles my mind how some people thought privacy was worthless, and harmless to give up.

The original “One” phone was even supposed to run cyanogemod out of the box at one point.

This particular thing IS a common-sense technicality. Without it, every new instance, the second it came online, would start to try and mirror THE ENTIRE FEDIVERSE.

The ideal would be some kind of in-between, but that’s a lot more complex, and involves the developers making decisions for you in terms of what to pull in and what not to.

It’s not just getting your communities seen.

Content from other instances for you and your users won’t show up in the all feed unless someone on your instance (or a bot) subs to the relevant communities.

Only off-instance communities with at least one local subscriber will federate.

You also wont immediately see new instances and their communities, and they won’t see you.

Heck yeah!

I’m gonna make a couple celebratory posts on !gameart@sopuli.xyz.

Also, a tip on quickly getting up to speed with federation, is to get your instance and communities set up on lemmy-federate.com.

Since content only shows up for users on instances with subscribers, the idea is to use a bot account on each participating instance to have that one required subscriber, so that posts from new communities actually show up on other instances, rather than just the originating one.

It basically allows you to kick-start federation, actually allowing users to organically discover your instance and communities.

edit: There is an active Balatro community at !balatro@piefed.social.

If you have access to another device, you can log into icloud.com and remotely log out of the phone.

Files “deleted” from icloud can also be restored on icloud.com/recovery for up to 30 days after deletion.

Absolutely.

But this shit is falling apart a lot sooner than the nazi party did.

The Nazis were true zealots, while Trump is just a grifter, wrapped in so many lies there are no longer words he might spew that are capable of making sense to anyone paying attention. Additionally, a lot of people around him are in it for personal gain, not some sense of ideals.
