Two important videos from two different musicians that are highly relevant:
Copyright is completely broken and only benefits large corporations with the lawyers to enforce it. It is nonsensical and the constant extensions to US copyright have diluted public domain and open-source works. In fact, the constant and rampant breaking of copyright and stretching the definitions of fair use is a side effect of the public's lack of options in the public domain space.
Also, using Leviticus verses in the scope of Christianity. The OT is the Jewish bible. NT is all of Jesus' stuff. Christians mix this up all the damn time.
the remaining $13bn was a loan Twitter took out to buy itself on their behalf.
That's truly some Hollywood-accounting-style bullshit. I couldn't even imagine the paradoxical mathematics it took to make that happen.
It would be like me paying you to buy a candy bar from me.
Good to know that BreadTube finally jumped on Lemmy.
Me? I'm missing 4-player Commander games in MTGO and cursing the current hyper-monetary practices of Wizards of the Coast, especially in the last few years.
As I understand it, Lemmy.world's maintainer wants to own the biggest Lemmy server ever, just like they own one of the biggest Mastodon servers. It's a feature, not a bug.
Probably because we consume the most resources per capita and drive demand?
Did you misspell "China"?
I didn't realize Li-ions were still using nickel.
Regardless, Telsa and Ford have already switched to LiFePO4 for new models, and Toyota has started switching. Both competitive and economic pressures will push the migration sooner. The battery tech is just miles and miles better (literally). Car buyers will want the extra distance and faster charging.
So, bylines that remark "nickel will feed EV giants like Tesla" is just disingenuous.
Could've, would've, should've. The US has had a long and sordid history of downright fucked-up foreign policy decisions.
But, bitching about it doesn't really change the current situation. NK has a dictatorship with a enough military power that it still requires a decent army to overrun. Kim isn't going to listen to any diplomacy, except when he can trick some diplomat to give him more power or image-building. At best, China might be able to cut off its funding and topple Kim's little empire, but China has no interest in that.
Government is the only thing protecting you from the rich and powerful.
That, uhhh, has to do with the current topic how?
