the guy just lost 500 million ... how the fuck can anyone look at these rich fucks with a serious face and fine them a few thousand? they have to know the fines are beyond useless. its a joke.
another, far worse wallet attack can also be used if they know the bucket name youre using in S3. they can generate an obscene amount of invalid requests you pay for that quickly ads up, and amazons response is 'so?'

apples and oranges dude. this article is about child care, not education. youre not wrong about education also taking a back seat, but this is an article about the critical nature of child care and a mild success in its implementation, not the also critically important child education.
Hi! Recently exiled reddit user, here. I'm curious what other alternatives to reddit there are, besides Lemmy, and Raddle, of course. Also, imho, Phuks is a good alternative, there's no hate-speech (that I'm aware of) and people are pretty respectful. Anyways, let's hear your suggestions! Thank you!
So I joined a new gym last year and was pleasantly surprised. They gave me a smart card to get in and out, that's it, no app, no accounts, no nothing. Well, today I got to the gym and saw the announcement that they are phasing out the access with the smart card and starting to use, you guessed it, an app....
i hate apps as well, but there is some efficiency gained in not having to manage the infrastructure required for 'cards'. its not always about the data mining.
i have 'utility' device that is an old cell phone with no cellular access used for this kind of nonsense. i also use it for music (pseudo-ipod)
The money goes to hire new directors of athletics. It goes toward new athletic facilities. It pays for the Starbucks our vice-chancellors love so much. It pays for the sushi bars they think will attract a "high caliber" of student. It pays the inflated salaries of the upper administration, who make healthy six figures even when they're terrible at their jobs.
education has become too profit-driven, and 'college' sports are a massive part of the failure.

I'm sick of random capitalisations mid sentence. I'm sick of common words being replaced by less common ones or even downright nonsense. I'm sick of it taking three attempts to successfully get the word I want. I swear it's been like this for five years or more. Can we have a better version yet, or at least the old one back?
im amazed at the fact i stopped caring/needing a more powerful phone 5-6 years ago. its just not a thing that matters anymore... theres no feature or processing speed i would need from a new device despite my phone bein 5 years old.

its amazing how debt is only ever brought up during democratic regimes... when the dems are in power its 'oh noes all the debt, whatever will we do! must cancel all social programs and increase military!"
but when conservatives are in charge, the debt does not exist , and its time for tax cuts for rich people, and expanding the military.

i think this misses the point of the fediverse... we need to supplant those giant 3rd parties with something less corporate, more co-op.
sure, we can extend functionality and do cool new things while thats happening, but that migration is a big part of the fediverse movement. it needs to be somewhat familiar to those users migrating.
