Coincidentally the US is also one of the few countries that taxes its citizens who live abroad. So they get double taxed. Both by the US govt and the country they live in.
Or just move to some EU country and just refuse to pay your US taxes, what are they gonna do, arrest you? 😉
Most American citizens have family (like their parents) in the country. If they don’t pay taxes they would be arrested when visiting the US to see their parents on their deathbeds. Or situations like that. Not great.
The US is one of the only countries on earth where you have to pay ~3’000 USD in fees to lose the citizenship. Ridiculous.
Interesting. In europe it’s made simpler because we have the same number on our ID and our Passport. And in many european countries that is what’s used for identification from the government. And for all the welfare / bank and stuff.
Why not just use the passport number? Or does your passport have the SS number?
I don’t get it. Is a social secuirty thingy the same as what National ID’s are for in other countries?
Maybe people can be corrupted. But I think it’s selection biases. If you’re the type of person to fuck people over to earn money (big buisness) or to seek power above others (politics), maybe you were corrupted in the first place? I mean it’s hard to make it in either of those without doing a lot of morally questionable stuff.
“oh no, our democracy is fragile” the newspapers say, while at this point all that’s left of american democracy is ash and crumbling rubble.
It does not make me feel good that legit half of tech outlets are owned by one company.
Maybe your VPN or internet doesn’t have port forwarding? That severely limits seeding potential.
I used to think seeding well was impossible, no matter how many files you seed the ratio just doesn’t get better. Then I tried a port forwarding enabled VPN and realised that was my issue.
Can I change fonts on my iphone, can I change it to this? I have a disability that impacts my vision and currently I’ve been relying on making text massive but this could be a better solution it sounds like.
Nope Nope Nope. I do not want the government having that data. Knowing our governments, they will contract this to third parties who will almost certainly sell that data.
I also do not want elected politicians having the power to shape relationships and sexuality of the population to that degree. Too much centralised power.
Propaganda is describing how authoritarian countries treat their minorities, apparently.
Same. To be fair, 1337x and TPB work fine, but idk why I just really liked TGX
The beauty of torrents is it’s completely free to use (+ decentralisation rocks). Unfortunately usenet doesn’t have that.
A community is only federated if someone on your instance subscribes to it.
Thanks for sharing uBlacklist
I like lemm.ee is as close as you can get. AFAIK it’s federated with pretty much everyone and it’s got a very large userbase so nearly every conmunity is federated.
I wonder if this is just because as the world has shifted rightward the training data has too.
Or if it is a genuine OpenAI policy, in this political climate it would not suprise me if they were shifting it rightwards on purpose.
