I always thought it would be a good idea to fine publicly traded corporations a percentage of their market cap + 10%, going up to maximum of 100% market cap + 10%.
If Meta is worth $817B USD, then we should treat them like it.

I’d laugh if all they did was make the bun bigger to make a “bigger” burger
Holy shit, are we gonna see the sequel to the dictator, Sulla?
It’s funny how some of Elongated Muskrat’s testing and experiments involve the subjects dying.
Monkeys dying with the Neuralink experiments, and humans are dying with these autopilot tests!
See: Al Gore vs Bush
Also, still miffed about Bernie not being a “good candidate” for the DNC in 2016.
Unfortunately, the fediverse is a lot like Reddit where users are more than happy to justify violence and horrible things to other people because they’re from the opposite side of the political and/or socioeconomic spectrum.
Sounds kinda similar to some right-wingers, don’t it?
Actually, yes.
Debian has been supported since the early 90s, but admittedly that’s the only one I could name off the top of my head.
Unfortunately, the US lives with both broken education and financial systems where the latter system has turned the former (and many other institutions that should have been public services) into a for-profit institution where the main goal is to push out as many students as possible (regardless of the quality of the education) to get as much money possible, student debts be damned.
This bit by the late and great comedian George Carlin encapsulates how bad it’s been in the US for at least the past 30+ years when it comes to this kind of stuff.
100% agree - college is only legitimately useful if the career you want to do requires or hugely benefits from a degree, or if you somehow do some crazy networking to get into a position thanks to a corporate person getting you in. For IT it’s arguable if you even need a degree or not outside of specialized fields, but I would liken getting a degree in some IT-related field to getting a cert: great to have on a resume, but experience and attitude will always beat it out.
If you’re in the business of getting a non-STEM degree, honestly just look into going into a community college for a couple of years to learn how to socialize and maybe get a taste for higher ed stuff (this benefits anyone and everyone). After that, if you’re not gonna go for a STEM career, I would consider dropping out and focusing on work experience.
EDIT: Should clarify, this is strictly for the US. To all fellows across the pond: yes, it is that bad.
OG Smash Bros intro to see where this idea came from. Melee’s intro iirc shows off the idea as well.
YTMNDs are still the pinnacle of web design, change my mind
I am now out of my cozy and comfy bed and on the floor while hitting my head on my lamp :(
The moon is a solar panel superstructure

Celebrity says some dumb shit to make sure they can keep getting exposure bucks, more at 11
Tbh I keep forgetting we live in a reality where that’s a thing
Also, if you’re popular enough on Twitch or YouTube you can make money playing games and hot tub streams
To be fair, you could make real money by playing games… if you were a gold farmer or an account seller
Depending on who you ask, it’s either God’s gift to all the cryptobros and GameStop bagholders apes or it’s games that have a more convoluted version of Steam trading but on the blockchain.
Tbh, anything NFT or crypto-related I feel like is scammy as hell at this point in time.
Unfortunately, the United Corporations of America loves milking kids for money because they hope and bank on kids annoying the shit out of their parents to spend money on whatever is being marketed towards them
Oh man that sounds juicy 🤤
Only change I’d argue for is to go off market cap instead of annual worldwide revenue though because you can say some insanely small amount on paper like 4%, but then that same 4% turns from ~$5B USD with annual revenue to ~$33B USD with market cap. But because we’d also want to actually deter businesses from breaking it and considering it a cost of business, I would think something like a fine of 110% of market cap value would be a huge deterrence.
