Do you use websites? They can also track your IP.

Heh, P2P absolutely does not minimize security concerns, especially of your IP being revealed.
Remember how people got DDoSed all the time because of Skype?
An IP address alone does not identify you. It might identify your general area.
Any other website works the same way. I can go buy a domain, set up a plain html site, and view the IP of anyone who visits the site.
What kind of features are you looking for?
Whoever you’d recommend is already exposed to the lemmy.ml people or worse, it’s just through Facebook or Instagram or Reddit. At least here they’re a little self-contained.
People trend towards your expectations. You’ll still have a bell curve, it’s just a matter of where it’s centered.
Don’t connect that machine to the internet. (Not that you had plans to.)
I recently learned about gyro-aiming. Leaning does help, since about 2015.
Eventually a family member of a Republican will be shot in one of these. Maybe then we can do something about it.
I don’t like Republicans either, but I still vote in the Republican primary. You have a duty to yourself and your country to vote.
If you don’t vote, you’re just allowing others to choose for you. How do you think that’s gonna go?
But also you should generally just pick a primary to vote in. You are voting in primaries, right?
Steam would be profitable at 12%.
30% is the standard. And it’s absurd. They all do it because they all have their own walled garden territory, and it doesn’t benefit any of them to lower prices.
You’re telling me that Steam does 30% of the effort to create and publish a game?
You need to take advantage of code switching, similar to how you’ll use curse words in some contexts, but not in others. Or retail language vs casual.
They should have some intuitive idea of when to speak Portuguese and when to speak English. If you’re mixing within the same context, that will be difficult.
C# is a better language anyway.
I expect the future is in Rust and C#.
With Gyroscope aiming you use the stick for large, broad movements, but for small adjustments you move the controller itself. It’s new as of about 2016ish.
The explanation and video here is good.

I’d rather add more Jira stories.
Just blame the users. Easy.
There’s an awful lot of political views around that aren’t tankie.
And it’s less about the users and more about the kind of lopsided, censorship moderation that happens on .ml
Lemmy.world is bigger, but Lemmy.ml.is the developers’ instance, and gets the newest versions of Lemmy first.
It’s also the oldest instance, I believe.
There are different types. The “financial duty” of corporations is generally overblown, however that is more or less what happened with Twitter. Elon made such a dumb offer that they had to put it to their shareholders. There’s some mechanism where shareholders can vote as a whole to sell, and if the vote passes then you don’t get a choice.
But generally corporations absolutely aren’t required to do whatever makes the most money. They’re allowed to put other values above pure profit, as long as they can justify it being in the shareholders’ interests. The shareholders may disagree and vote them out because of it, but as long as it was plausible, it’s legal. For instance, I believe the board of an Oil company could decide to shut down their wells and fully pivot to renewables, and I don’t think the courts would hold them accountable. Preventing climate change is easily arguable as in the shareholders’ interest, even at the cost of significant money. However that board would likely quickly be voted out. (And it’s unlikely they would have gotten there if they didn’t love oil money.)
If you own 51% of shares, public or not, you can’t be forced to sell afaik. And if you’re private, you’d have to do some pretty big illegal defamation or something to be forced to sell your property. Or you could die and your descendents could decide to sell.
One issue is that we’ve set up our tax system to encourage cashing out asap. For the most part in the US, you’re going to be taxed at 37% whether you sell now or whether you have the company pay you out for the next twenty years. So why not get out while the gettin’ is good? In the past, with a 90% top marginal rate at a higher income, it was often better to keep your money in the company and in the reputation, and just have it pay you out at a medium tax bracket for the next fifty years. All you really need to do as your job is make sure the company stays stable anyway. You can do that while spending four days on the golf course.
