Trash disposal isn’t free, yea the dog poop is probably a negligent amount, but most people have to explicitly pay for trash disposal, and so filling up other people’s trash cans can either cause an additional financial burden on them, or mean that they can’t effectively dispose of all of their trash.

It looks like in your case, each unit gets a can assigned to it, and service fees and replacements cost the individual directly, additionally, there are fines for trash violations, so having other people put unknown trash in your bins can result in a direct financial burden. I think it’s pretty reasonable to be relatively protective over your trash bin if you are the one that has to pay for service, replacements, and fees.

I’ll take the L… but I’m gonna blame it on sleepyheadedness, lol.

A resume with no PII, how are they gonna call you for the interview?

And what is the point of encrypting it? If they can’t decrypt it then you just sent them a jumble of bits, and if they can, then what was the point?

TPM isn’t inherently bad, it’s just a way to cryptographically store keys. TPM overall is great as it gives you a very secure way to store things like encryption keys.

You also don’t need TPM to lock down a system. Locked bootloaders have existed for decades and platforms have historically rolled their own encryption modules as they wanted, like your ipad example, or any video game console in the last 20 years, or most mobile phones, etc.

The ‘knows enough to be dangerous’ crowd has been fearmongering about tpm since it’s been introduced, it isn’t some magic bullet for vendor locking, since vendor locking is already achieved.

Building your own cabinets will be monumentally more expensive unless you are an experienced cabinet maker with a bunch of tools already.

2013 was over a decade ago we’ve went through both a housing crisis and record levels of inflation since then.

People generally don’t like being proselytized.

Old looks cheap to make, new looks cheap and safe to operate, shows, imo, a positive trend.

My mango is, to blow up, then act like I don’t know nobody, ahahahahahaha

Ultimately it gets to the point of, is the risk higher than the risk of money in a bank account.

Given that (at least in the us) money sitting in a checking account is 100% risk with guaranteed negative returns (over time inflation will outpace interest), there are investments that can generally be considered safer (bonds, tbills, etc) than just holding dollar bills.

This is a bad outlook, there are plenty of low risk investment strategies that are meant as income generation, and it’s generally what you should switch to as you start needing to cash in on your savings, these are things like laddered tbills and dividend stocks.

You can go slightly riskier doing things like wheeling options if your tolerance is higher.

Investment profiles differ for a reason and the term of the investment is just part of the strategy.

I should add that ‘buy and hold’ does not make something not a gamble.

If I told you I bought a random crypto currency or penny stock with no future or fundamentals and plan to hold on to it for 10 years because I just know it’s gonna hit big, would you not consider that a gamble?

For most things you throw away, you can maybe get 50 cents at the a scrapper, of they even take the item

Nothing is free. Equipment costs money and time to build, operate, maintain, and repair.

He is a Doctor Of Philosophy in Philosophy?

All PhDs are philosophy degrees.

A) the three laws were devised by a fiction author writing fiction. B) video game NPCs aren’t ai either but nobody was up in arms about using the nomenclature for that. C) humans hallucinate fake information, ignore directions and restrictions, and spread false information based on unreliable training data also ( like reading everything that comes across a Facebook feed)

Ok, so then the owner isn’t paying property tax.

In reality, the renter is not actually paying the property tax. They may be paying for it, but they are not the one paying the bill at the end of the year.

Edit: classic lemmy. The renter may be giving money to the landlord which covers the cost of the tax, however that is irrelevant. a renter by definition, does not own the property and therefore does not pay property taxes and yet, still is able to utilize public infrastructure. Just like how a person who doesn’t have income is still able to use public infrastructure. Your ability to pay into the system does not preclude you from participating.

There are a lot of people who don’t pay properly tax and get all of those services, for example, people who rent.

You still pay income tax and sales tax.

It’s possible to deadname any person who changed their name for any reason.

What do you mean? They didn’t actually navigate through the time dimension?

You mean the didn’t actually generate a 1000 foot wave?

Next your gonna tell me they didn’t even fly a space ship.

I’m inclined to agree, but it’s really just semantic differences. If they really wanted to, they could just release a new major version upgrade every year, tie the license to that version, and still get an effective annual subscription.
