If you can use some help, let me know? Developer and lost my job almost two months ago and so far after hundreds of applications, the only responses I have received have been scammers :(

Having said that, good for you! Don't worry about the sin part, she is doing that not you. Also, people in those circles are usually extremely unhappy in their marriages and I guarantee you that her husband is cheating on her too. I don't like to generalize, but I've been around many people in those circles and seriously all of them are the same. Vapid, careless, and care only about money

Why only tax them?

I want world wide wealth caps! Nobody should have a net worth over 10 million dollars. There is no right, no reason, nothing that can argue that anyone should have more than that. Even 10 million is too much IMHO

Any income after reaching that limit should be taxed 100% until the person is below the threshold again

Governments will have huge funds they can use for universal healthcare, universal basic income, free education for all, etc.

Governments can setup non profit foundations that fund independent journalism with the single rule that all news must be factual and as unbiased as possible

If you can only have 10 million in net worth, you can own a home abd a micro business, or a small part of a business. If you want funding, sure, add more shareholders. Since nobody can be extremely rich anymore a billion dollars company would require some 2000 semi equal shareholders

Since nobody can get insanely rich (or poor) anymore, there will no longer be incentives to commit crimes, or for companies to lie to their customers. Why cheat if it won't get you anything tangible? Why fight to get an extra million of you have all you need to live nice?

Wealth caps, IMHO is the solution to so many of this world's problems, it's insane that no politician talks about this.

So he doxxed, not great, but for that a swat team rams down his door? WTF?

You could of course just ring the door bell and serve him a warrant and have lawyers foght it out but why do that when you can be violent and intimidating to send a message?

Eh, it's most of the world? Add apple to it, and it's 99% of the world

I wouldn't call that annoying, I would call that attempted annihilation

Other talks include “Build-a-Cult,” moderated by the founder of the Christian networking site Pray.com

I mean, we all know what these people are about but I'm just taken back by the brazenness and openness of all of it.

This is basically "Yes, I made a cult to become a billionaire with a following, what about you?" and somehow nobody bats an eye? That is, of course, nobody that could do something about this.

Humans are teaching AI how to kill humans.

Nothing that could go wrong here

I never understood why the handling of these mounts is done on the KDE level, it never made sense to me and the issues with it were obvious since day one

Why not make this a separate service that has no KDE requirements but that KDE can use to get these mounts done? This way it can work with everything

If it's contained in glass or something and not just an open canister of powder, it's actual fairly innocuous

You can take uranium rocks from the US and transport them in a commercial airline over the world.

Saying someone in that country made the right call is decisively NOT the same as putting that entire country on a pedestal

Israel uses American-made 155-millimeter M825A1 artillery projectiles and denies deploying the substance in violation of the laws of war.

All the photo and video evidence shows they did but they're in full "nuh uhuuuhh!"

Fuck Israel

Also very different airplanes

Commercial airplane crashes always make big news and their crashes in the past always caused improved regulations to the point where there is little left to improve

Private airplanes, on the other hand, different story
