Yes, I agree with your logic. However, Iran is a fundamentalist regime. They appear rational next to trump. That doesn’t make them rational. Otherwise there would have been an end to sanctions years ago. And an end to murdering dissidents and protestors.

Yes, it likely that makes it at least as valuable, but probably more so, given it mattered enough to sell.

The way it is phrased, I think they made a gain of that amount when they sold it. So the value had increased significantly since they purchased it. However, if they bought the equivalent amount again, it would cost the same. If they bought higher quality gold, possibly it would cost more.

Sorry, do you mean small investors are lending to companies? Through financial products? That are highly exposed to ai?Or any bubbble? I don’t know that I’ve seen this reported. What are you referring to?

Lol, no. The world is safer with less nukes. Allowing Israel to get nukes was a failure of the international community.

Allowing Ukraine to face repurcussions for giving up their nukes was another failure.

Wellz the more he does it, the more he's burning allies and the more gas prices suffer, which is what destroys American politicians more than any other silly little crimes like rape, paedophilia or genocide.

If he plays too hard and loose, people might get angry enough that they face consequences. So far no indication of that happening.

Most of the large ai companies are still privately held by the wealthy. If he pops the bubble before they have a chance to leave retail investors holding the bag, then he might face consequences.

No,.it's not all new material. Bit it's a lot of inoffensive slop. Most places have declared the sitcom dead for that reason.

Nobody reads the terms and conditions. Likely a few put it through ai, and it didn't notice either.

Or hid it, maliciously. It's so intelligent, it just wanted to limit it's own liability.

It's not the flights per se, but the worrying future it suggests.

Old Google could. Enshittified Google can't.

I think it's that they realize peak oil is over. The middle east is a geopolitical strategic position for energy, as the world is now finding out via Iran closing the SoH.

Israel realised that that is on the wane. Along with the next generations attitude towards their relationshipnwith Israel. Israel is going hard in now as they have a larger support from the USA. I fully expect that to naturally wind down due to internal US political change and global moves away from carbon fuel.

Sure, oil shocks would still bite, but nowhere near to the same level. It's why the other oil production states are desperately trying to pivot to other industries. Iran has screwed that by making them unsafe. America doesn't realize that by not protecting their allies there, in the same way they protect Israel, that they will lose them. Edit:typos

I think were pretty screwed either way. If they ramp down, Iran sees them as an existential threat and ramps up nuke capability, but now with less sanctions and more money. Iran with nukes makes Israel more twitchy as they see it as an existential threat.

If USA ramps up, we're in for a long protracted war and instability.

So we're screwed either way.

 

When I go to a post with video media, on iPad, there doesn't seem to be a way to exit. For images, they can be swiped away or touch outside to exit. For videos, ice tried different gestures and there is no back button or X.

I use Android daily, with a back swipe gesture, but there is no such gesture I'm aware of on iPad. Does anyone know how or should I submit a bug or feature request?

 

I’m trying to set containers for some websites on a shared windows terminal with multiple users under the same login. We use some cloud software and each user has their own log in. Manually opening websites in container manager allows this, but I’m struggling to do so for opening in container for the home page.

Each log in just launches in the default container (unassigned). I’ve tried using bookmark tree, which seems to support containers, but I can’t get it to work. Assigning a site to always open in a container doesn’t seem to work either as it’s the same site for multiple users (which seems to be the purpose of multi account container), so if it always opens in container A, person B still needs to manually open in their container.

 

I just recently got the 190 update pushed. It mentioned lots of fixes. One was image handling.

I have found that now exiting an image is a bit slow or glitchy. A single gesture to go back does not exit and instead it needs two. Tapping an image instead still closes it but there is a delay that wasnt there before.

I'm on a pixel 7pro with gesture navigation.

 

My phone coverage stopped for a period. I was using connect at the time and a comment failed. I initially thought it was a big but noted after restarting, it still was out. Then I checked with a test search to find it was all internet.

A few minutes later internet was back. Went back into Lemmy and refreshed. No data showing. I checked down-for-me for my instance and it was up. Refreshed again. No data.

Again restarted app and it was fine then. So, it seems he connection outage did not allow refresh after it came back, despite a restart during the outage.
