Those same competitors exist even if you steal from them. If raising prices means they make less profit due to those competitors, then they can’t raise prices to offset losses either.

I’m pretty sure that doesn’t work for small corporations where no one else even knows you exist. The share value is likely just going to be the company’s net asset value.


Pricing in the loss only makes sense if it recovered any of the losses. And if it did, I’m pretty sure they would’ve already done it regardless of whether there’s any loss since it would just be pure profit in its absence.
That’s easy to do. You just check that the username exists. If someone enters a wrong username/password pair, you can still check that the username exists, but how do you know that the user intended to log in with that username? You would also have to check every other username to see if the password matches, and that can’t be done with a simple search because you need to compute a different hash for each user you check. Then if the username exists and the password also happens to match someone else’s password, then what do you report? Should you even report it? Because doing so reveals that someone had that specific password, and if the list of usernames is publicly available (which they often are, or could become public through a leak of some sort), then you can brute force over a small set of usernames to match them up.
Looks like green bell pepper rings to me. That’s a common pizza topping.

It doesn’t help that Nutella has been advertised as being “part of a healthy breakfast”.
Then you can buy the art nobody is stopping you
Says the person trying to make it harder for me to find the artist that I should be buying from.
Getting a job doing what? We already have way more than enough people for just about everything. What I want to see more of is art.
People need food, shelter, and healthcare to live. Many artists are denied these things because they choose to provide us with entertainment instead of feeding the capitalist machinery. That is in fact very serious.
This seems like the same problem that we have with shuffling music, where a truly random shuffle doesn’t feel random; if you make it less random, it ends up feeling more random. Similarly, making a movie less realistic can make it feel more realistic.
Some people just enjoy watching messes disappear. That’s the entertainment.
So the rule should be that whoever cooks also cleans everything that can be cleaned before serving. The other person cleans up after you’re done eating.
I personally find that cleaning up afterwards is much harder even if there are fewer dishes, so it feels like a fair deal.
You have to spend time in the kitchen to develop competence.
Peanut butter:
I don’t understand the stance in this thread.
I hear so many workplace horror stories about new management coming in and firing low output people without understanding that they contribute positively to morale and increasing everyone else’s output. But when that role is acknowledged, it’s suddenly time for a lawsuit and finding a new job?


Yeah, the reason we don’t have those isn’t technological. We could have it today if we collectively decided that we wanted it.
People who start with preconceptions based on labels can still be swayed. It just becomes an uphill battle of figuring out what they think the label means and dispelling those before getting to the meat of the discussion when you can instead just start on the meat.
Isn’t the entire point of social media to interact with other people? I.e. engagement. Why even bother posting on social media if that’s not what you’re looking for?
