  Here you do not own it. The owner can request it back. But you can’t be bothered to walk to the post office and pay for shipping it back. So you have to keep it available for him to (come or send someone and) pick it up. At least 3 weeks iirc, unless it is perishable goods. Then you can throw it away. If he does not request it back, then you own it after some time (I forgot how long, half a year maybe).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to get a package to the right owner?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Throw it away
  If you opened it, and do not wish to keep it, you may simply dispose of it in the garbage, as long as it is safe to do so.

  Keep it
  If you opened it and you like it, you may keep it. By law, you may keep unsolicited merchandise and are under no obligation to pay for it.

  Note that this may be correct only in Usa. Different in other countries.

  Abstract is what math is. Try to take away all abstraction, then no math is left.

  Practical examples etc. are just nice accessories for learning it at first, but they are not math.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As a child of the 90s we grew up with PC Political Correctness. Is that WOKE but just in a different form?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Partially similar, but nowadays “woke” has much more of an edge, and seems to follow an agenda.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where do I go if I want to find someone to help me make an app game?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Where do I go

  You go to a bank, because you need money to pay your programmer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Stay respectfully, forget subtly. Say it like it is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This here!

  Only one who is able to read and understand what is helpful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Couldn’t someone living near a border just go over and buy stuff and skip the tariffs?

  Yes, they could. Yes, they can. Yes, they do.

  Yes, the ones who do it as a business get caught, eventually ;-)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would the world look like if every worker got together and Unionized for a universale wage that helps everyone? Instead of one country trying to screw over another?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes but only if all the world would work like Usa.

  In reality, all the world works differently than all the world.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Here’s an idea⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It is prone to all sorts of bad. Humans are bad. We need reason to keep it in check.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nice! Didn’t know it. Have to try…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ultra reliable. Secure. Easy to maintain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  IntelliJ IDEA comes to my mind.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  vi (incl. vim etc.) and it’s only counterpart emacs are both open source.

  apache and nginx are the undisputed top webservers.

  samba is better than Windows server.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I get that america is failing if it's duty to suppress the rise of fascist but did the rest of the world just put all its eggs in the america basket?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Jerk, yes, that’s the word I was missing. Jerk just didn’t want to come to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I get that america is failing if it's duty to suppress the rise of fascist but did the rest of the world just put all its eggs in the america basket?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  did the rest of the world just put all its eggs in the america basket?

  No, you don’t throw your eggs into a basket when the basket is foo far away.

  It’s quite the other way round. Imagine the North American continent drifting away from all other continents at the same time, and at an increasing speed.

  This hasn’t been caused by the orange problem. It was observable several years earlier. But when they decided to afford their orange problem for the first time, it increased the speed significantly. And now it is increasing again, and both speed and acceleration increase.

  Envy, usually.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who would win in a fight, a Gorilla or a Bear of equal weight?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Humans, overwhelmed and outmatched, would have no choice but to retreat

  … and then invent rifles :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who would win in a fight, a Gorilla or a Bear of equal weight?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So which kind are you?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who would win in a fight, a Gorilla or a Bear of equal weight?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  At equal weight, the Gorilla is the better fighter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could you grind up a loaf of bread back into a flour and make a new loaf of bread?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Actually I know somebody who makes cake out of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Failure to exercise brevity

  That’s a wonderful wording!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If it’s more than 1.1 questions, I want it all in writing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Try again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You are wrong. People do not insist. People are free to do.

  For example, if I know the answer to question #2 then I can give this answer and why shouldn’t I?

  And I feel free to remain silent where I don’t know things, or to forget that there have been more questions, or I don’t have the time, or whatever…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do you think are some strategies trumps Russian handlers use to get that bafoon to do what they want?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They have divided the world between them like two salesmen agreeing on separate territories.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t thought of him. I think he has very different methods, and btw, Orange is already his puppet :)

  I have thought about money-stuffed Americans (not only from the Us of) and Chinese methods.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So scared?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not anywhere near you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Trump sucks, but he’s the devil you know. Vance could be turboHitler or […]

  I don’t buy that.

  Whoever would be able, and willing, and succeeding with the first one, is an evil person, and would already have a plan with the second one. An evil plan, I guess, that would make the second one scared enough to become that puppet.
