Bad for profits though. The sun is too free. How are they supposed to make money on this?

Sorry, you asked a question that could have been seen as different from that context, so I was very explicit.
No, for just visiting you don’t need to learn the language. If you plan to stay long term, you should learn the local language.

Do you believe that anyone existing in America must speak English
Yeah, eventually. If I’m going to live in a country indefinitely, I’m going to try to learn their language. If I’m in France for more than a year, I’m going to try to learn French. I’d expect the same of friends and family. It’s not racist to expect people living in a place long term to be able to converse with the locals.
If they’re working here for just a summer or two and spending most of the year in another country, no.
and only English?
No?

You did the right thing. It’s also important that cops and prosecutors do their job and stop relying on horrible accusations to be enough to convict anyone they want.
We’re close enough to the French en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reign_of_Terror as it is. I still think Al Franken really didn’t do anything seriously wrong.

Notably, I’ve given this speech a number of times.
this system is so poorly designed, that it’s just turning into a rendering nightmare when the project gets too large
This is what happens if you’re an inexperienced software developer trying to make a system that is too large. Anyone can code a small thing, even if it’s overly complicated to do so. In larger systems those complications stack until the system is unmaintainable.

Whatever “AI Helper” tool you’re talking about, it isn’t here.
I’m also a little concerned about how much your relying on AI for everything, and seem to believe everything it says.
You know it mostly just mirrors back what you say to it, right? Sometimes that’s useful if you just want it to fill in things you know already exist. But if you lean on it too much, you can get down into such a deep rabbit hole that you’re posting on this Lemmy instance support board thinking we’re some kind of support for the tool you’re using.
Your AI should be warning you about over-reliance on it and advising you to see a health professional.

I think there might be some AI psychosis in here.
- Comment on When and why did online surveys remove the back button?! 1 week ago:
Auto forwarding is the dumb part, since you shouldn’t have the combination.
- Comment on I can't upload images to posts. Get error code 500: no file descriptors available. I am using the app: Summit. Can someone tell me if this is on Lemmy.worlds end or Summit? 1 week ago:
If it’s for work, it’s nearly certainly on only her work machine and does not affect the rest of the network.
Part of the purpose of a work VPN is to only allow work machines in, and your personal devices don’t qualify.
- Comment on US Government Official refuses to answer basic question 2 weeks ago:
Unpopular opinion — The electoral college and Senate can stay as-is. At a glance it might seem weird to give votes to land, but on the other hand you shouldn’t want every state between Utah and the Mississippi to become the country’s public dumping ground.
Yeah, there are problems, but the other reforms might be enough. Overturning Citizens United, cleansing the Supreme Court of RV bribes and corruption, eliminating gerrymandering, and proportional elections should cover enough that we don’t need to eliminate Nebraska’s votes.

The stick is clearly superior, but an S-tier stick is also more common.

Here’s a video. Compare his condition to the (lack of) urgency from the first responders.
Dude is fucking dead.
- Comment on Is this a scam or am I being paranoid? And if so, what kind of scam is this? 3 weeks ago:
Yes, it’s a scam. Doesn’t really matter what’s going on other than it’s a scam.
Do they even play the game?
- Comment on Want to admin two communities 4 weeks ago:
Additionally, if you want to close either of these LW communities and make a post redirecting people to your local communities, you’re welcome to do so.
Local servers in the fediverse for local communities makes a lot of sense. As long as your local instance is stable enough.

Why is this in Lemmy.world support?
- Comment on US Energy Secretary Chris Wright: “I'm thrilled to report that after 35 years, on July 4th, we will end the subsidies for wind and solar projects” 4 weeks ago:
Don. Kim is largely a product of circumstance.
Don is doing this because he’s fucking stupid.

If you’re going to eat it, no. If you’re going to waste it, yes.
- Comment on Bill to raise minimum wage to $25 an hour will be introduced in Senate 5 weeks ago:
So we should be sad and do nothing and shame anyone who tries something doomed to fail anyway.

So after he lost he committed to losing? What would you call someone like that?

Not all of them. The jackoff tucker carlson maga fuck gave it up.

They’ve dealt with him before.

How long ago did you buy that? Because things have changed.

Oh no, it’s still happening. It’s how BYD cars are made.
- Comment on I'm a dev who has been working on my game for 2 years and my game title got stolen on Steam and they plan to release before I do. What should I do? 1 month ago:
This is what it sounds like when people defend the Steam monopoly btw.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 1 month ago:
We’re trying. But I am glad to see Europe moving towards open software and more independence for exactly that reason.
- Comment on Title 1 month ago:
Because they’re also fast.
- Comment on If you screw up, they can fuck you over instantly. If they screw up, you get to go through customer service hell for a hour to get them to fix it. 2 months ago:
This is why I generally push bills instead of letting them pull. Yeah, it’s a bit of a chore to go in and change amounts every month, but if I forget, the default will probably overpay the bill slightly.
And I don’t have to worry about the electric company deciding they want to randomly pull $1200 this month.
