Look, I hate Musk as well, but I’m not seeing their side of the story here. That’s what courts are for.
I see the occasional Deere dealership while traveling the countryside. How are they still in business? Every single farmer, bar none, has to know about their business practices. And FFS, independent action like fixing your own shit is core to country life. Maybe they’re coasting on parts sales vs. new machine sales?
Best part the summary missed:
Last year, the company issued a “memorandum of understanding.” The document was a promise to farmers that it would finally let them repair their own equipment, so long as states didn’t pass any laws around the right to repair.
LOL, get real.
Chief among Deere’s promises was that it would provide farmers and independent repair shops with the equipment and documentation they needed to repair their equipment. The promises of the memorandum have not come to pass.
I’ve heard the other manufacturers aren’t locking down repairs. Anyone know if that’s true?
Given my interests and hobbies, I’d love the place!
Got a Pixel 5 with a line in the screen for $120. The seller I’m mainly talking about, the one with grades, shows a picture of each phone and any damage.
Don’t know enough to find the study, but AI did provide novel, and unexpected, solutions to magnetic containment issues.
Think it was a pop-sci version of this:
I’m getting unemployment right now. It’s 1/6th of my former pay, zero benefits. Oh, and the max benefit is a total of 2 weeks of former pay.
Give it up. Lemmy thinks “corporation” means “megacorp”, has no clue about financial dealings outside what they read in the headlines and can’t spell “LLC”.
“Capitalism BAD!”, is what you should be posting.
No clue. I read on a $20 tablet I got off Amazon. With the app that suits you, why not indeed? It’s a total POS for anything but reading, but I bought it for an epub reader.
This has been known since prehistory. FFS, we started agriculture to grow the nutritious grains we had found for food and beer, 12,000 years ago.
And now today! Neolithic tips and tricks!
5·5 days ago^ Exactly this. First thing I thought because it’s so obvious.
Lina Khan
That woman is the most important bureaucrat in the United States. Jesus, she’s fighting Wall Street and Silicone Valley, and winning. This election is, by far, more than about Harris vs. Trump. Khan will be #1 on the chopping block if Trump wins.
If you’re not familiar, get to know her:
I get all mine on eBay. There are some big-time sellers who are pros at reselling old phones and give an honest A-D rating. Same goes for PCs. Buy from the pros if you’re wary of the average Joe.
How are data caps affecting you? Not sure what mine is, but I never go over on my home and phone connections. Are you hitting the cap? What are you doing and paying?
No, I’m not suggesting this isn’t an issue. I’m interested in what people are dealing with outside my experience.
Naw, last thing I want is the government running our internet. Hell, it would have never kicked off 30 years ago if not for private enterprise. Back then your average Joe knew jack about this new “information superhighway”. Voters would have never agreed to fund it, let alone blow it up as fast as the capitalists did. And yes, we’ve entered the “last stage” of that particular game. Enshitiffication is well under way.
As of 10-years ago or so (thoughts?), internet access is a need. Not as important as power or water, but it should clearly be regulated like a public utility. I’ve worked for a few ISPs, so I know the devil in the details, but:
- ISPs should be mandated to provide for rural customers at the same terms as urban folks.
- Local governments, even states, should be shut out of decisions concerning competition. If a competitor can build new plant, or light up dark fiber, they can go for it.
- Provide base-level service as a welfare benefit. Access is that important. Try finding a job without it.
tl;dr: Government’s role is to dial it in, not take it over.
MS is not going to jack with Excel. It’s the one reason they sell so much Office, and arguably the only reason the product still exists.
4·10 days agoHow is it played? 3rd person?
This interview should clear things up. I have no idea why this woman hasn’t been assassinated.
I travel far out of my way to avoid passing through that foul city. Alabama’s a way nicer state than most realize. That does not apply to Birmingham.
Birmingham’s motto: “Still better than West Memphis!”
