How often are you reading about someone suing and then that lawsuit (which is already in court) being dropped because they got a better offer for an arbitration/settlement out of court? For me that’s a very common thing to read for bigger cases.

But I agree that forced arbitration with not even a chance to take it to court if you don’t like the offer is horrible for the consumer

Arbitration doesn’t save money. You still need lawyers.

of course - but usually it’s way faster than getting a proper court-ruling - and since lawyers are paid per hour that makes a big difference

Isn’t it often in both parties to settle things out of court? For the one that’d sue it’s usually more money at less cost and the company gets around possibly having a bad precedent set and the bad publicity to potentially losing in court.

This is probably aimed at people creating issues in the hopes of getting a settlement for something that has a slim (but Nonzero) chance to hold up in court.

It’s a company - I think this aims at people only bringing serious claims and reducing the paperwork for them - but since it’s Valve people will glorify everything they do

That guy legitimately made his hobby into his job.

There’s 0 reasons for him to still keep updating the game with as much content as he’s doing except for his own satisfaction. Truly the best developer a game can have

Sounds like something Leon Skum world say

I mean AMD heavily relies on Taiwan being independent to even be the company they are. If China takes over most people in power and all the shareholders are fucked - so in this instance it actually makes sense even from a company standpoint to do malicious compliance

Libertarianism is just the extremest form of liberalism though?

Libertarianism also means EVERYONE is free to live their lives how they want - murdering someone is the very antithesis of liberalism

Brazil first, Australia 2nd and hopefully EU third nail in the coffin for that clown’s platform

For me it’s the climate - no point in bringing a child in a world with a society that will inevitably collapse and a possible world war over land that’s still inhabitable.

Adoption maybe - but for me more children only equal more future suffering - and if not for my children because it’ll be somehow possible to shield them from the worst then for a couple of others that have to suffer in exchange when western countries pull up the drawbridge and let the global south deal with the mess they made for those countries…

Illegal immigration surging? The numbers are lower than any of the previous years? I’d consider thinking about which echo-chambers I’m part of in your place if that’s really the main issue you’re worried about right now…

I mean there are enough (closeted) homosexual right wingers with loudly voiced homophobic opinions for it not be a problem

Conservatives are trying whatever they can to make people not vote for their opponents

Smells like the kind of propaganda designed to stop people from voting against Putin’s darling

One is a democracy and strategic ally, the other one is just trying to be destructive and split apart any western alliances…

Was that the video Musk spread on his Twitter account? I knew it was bad because of Tucker in general - but this?

Yeah those SR-games where amazing storytelling

Also great for city climate since heated up cars are acting like a heat battery making it significantly slower for a city to cool down once the sun goes away

Ideally there would be no openly parked cars but I guess this is the next best thing

And the conservatives attack them on every front because of how much they stir up things - it’s so sad how well that propaganda works…
