So yes, increasing shareholder value is enshrined in US law. Only private corporations can get around that rule.

This is true, with one exception.

There are non-profit corporations. They have to declare that they are non-profit at the time of foundation, though. They have to write that in the statute (idk what it’s called in English, it’s “Satzung” in German).

No, I was arguing in good faith; But I see it doesn’t resonate with you at all, so i’ll just leave it.

I agree, you could find it on a schoolyard.

But it’s not weird to get hung up about it, consider my angle: By talking like this, we’re defaming or decrying children. It will lead to less self-determination for young people in general, thus promoting the gerontocracy.

Never ceases to amaze me how this country has children as elected officials.

Could we please please please stop talking as if children are the worst? Everytime somebody misbehaves, there’s someone who calls it “childish” instead of “stupid” or “wrong”.

tbh, that’s a fair question. I would have asked them same thing, if only to hope you’d say something like:

“What, no. The horses didn’t die. It was a movie. They pretended to kill them.”

Especially if you’re already emotionally worked up.

That’s called “being caught off guard”.

Or maybe she was just messing with him, who knows.

I wonder: Is there any experiment done on Mars that uses Spectroscopy to detect water?

I’m thinking of something like this:

Due to Absorbance, wet air should absorb specific frequencies of light.

Well, what we need is some dedicated non-profit company making chips.

Danke, das sage ich auch.

Der Wartungsaufwand, wenn man die TLD .org wählt, steigt mmn sehr stark an. Ideal wäre wohl .dach, aber das gibt es leider nicht. Daher schlage ich .at vor.

Two plates of rice or noodles with vegetables and salmon. Delicious. Actually, highest ROI that you could possibly hope to achieve in the universe.

Or “*RN” meaning river in western continental europe. That’s why we got Rhone and Rhein.

Reminds me of “*DN” meaning river as well near the black sea.

noooo 😭

nooo the muffins 😭😭😭

how could you encrypt them 🥲

Not really.

Feminism embraces openness in society, including walking your own path.

If that includes deviating from cis male sexuality, then yes, feminism does indeed allow that to happen, if it happens naturally. In other words: feminism does not force you to take part in the toxic masculinity circlejerk.

In that way, yes, feminism probably reduces the amount of “male sexuality” which is basically toxic masculinity in the world. But it does not force that change, instead, it lets it happen.

They predicted pron would condition men to expect sex on demand and sexual assault rates would skyrocket when in fact the opposite happened.

Reminds me of “computer games turns teenagers into killer machines” saying.

I imagine it’s similar to marihuana.

If people find out there’s an easy, relaxed life, they don’t work so hard, hurting corporate profits.

As the saying goes, there’s only two hard problems in IT:

Caching, naming things, and off by one errors.
