I mean I completely agree with you in that the semantic bullshit is bullshit, my point was that Linus wasn’t even correct in his attempt at BS because GN didn’t use the word “sold”. GN used the same word that Linus is attempting to say is totally different.
GN also literally said “auction” not “sold” in his first video, so Linus’s response was doubly stupid.
It was doubling every day. They were scared of day 15 where it would’ve been 780mil for the day and over 1.562billion total.
Every day doubling is a really good consequence, the fact that it only took twitter 3 days to comply once the penalty started actually hitting should confirm that
Handing over data from one account with 6+ months warning is usually pretty easy actually.
The fact that it took a fine doubling every day to get them to comply is the more interesting fact.
It isn’t 3 days, as you imply. It’s multiple quarters.
You wouldn’t download a car more RAM would you?
Between lemmy.world and sync having issues I almost went on reddit. Then I remembered this is the fediverse, jerboa and lemm.ee exist and I’m back and more active than ever.
Hmm I think you’ve convinced m-… wait a minute
Jerboa has so far been a really good interface to use. A lot of work can be done to make it more friendly but I’ve been really impressed so far with how seamless it’s made my transition.
That’s pretty much been the entire conservative movement’s MO for 30 years now.
The only one giving decent controlled responses here was, as I sort of expected, the new CEO. Everyone else I got the fake apology vibe, especially from Yvonne.
Terran has his work cut out for him, and I don’t really blame him for taking 6 weeks to be a fly on the wall (it’s generally good to learn the current process before coming in and making massive changes) but this week has not been good for LMG and we will see if he manages to make something good from this experience.
Especially things like the Madison situation. I could see him being unaware of it until now, but now it’s time to address that as well.
