It's much more fun to just half-ass a new control panel with only a few features, and then hide the old, fully-functional control panel.
Bonus points if you can then begrudgingly finally show the old, useful, control panel when a user clicks 6 layers deep in the new panel.
"Wuh-wuh-wuh", using pronunciation similar to the start of "wow" or "woman"
"Why do people do X, when in my opinion if you disregard the two top reasons for doing X, it's pointless? Prove to me that it would be better!?"
"Default judgement", meaning nobody turned up to plead their case in whatever court and jurisdiction this was in.
So this woman sold 1 shirt, someone else sold 275,000, someone else sold 1200 coffee mugs, and so on and so forth until Grumpy Cat Enterprises™ gets the shits and goes to court with a case against multiple plaintiffs. Then in the absence of any defense all the alleged guilty parties get slapped with a default USD100K. The lawyers take 60 percent for fees and GCE gets a potential income of a few million or so.
All of which means very fucking little if the judgement is in East Texas and you're in South East Asia as it's going to be pretty tough to collect, but it might mean something if you live in Australia. Being a civil matter, it's pretty unlikely to go any further than being a note in a file somewhere, I'm not even sure if this could get on to Australian credit reports.
But the single sale of a shirt just before all this happened sounds extremely suspicious, like a fishing expedition to get enough people to make it worthwhile to go to court.
Exceptions for farm workers only work if they bother to check and verify documents correctly, which they clearly don't.
He seems to have this the wrong way around.
The world is the store, and he's just some person outside its front door, holding out his hand and asking US customers for 5 bucks for every item they want to go home with.
I think the complexity of nuke subs is only justified if you also have nukes. They are ideal for a crew to go out with a complement of 16 nukes to loiter in the unknown depths for 6 months. They're just out there as a deterrent to let your enemies know that Very Bad Things will suddenly happen to a few of their major cities if they want to try to lob a few nukes first.
Other than that particular purpose, they are quite a costly way to just go out and patrol your territory. That whole nuclear supply chain is ridiculously expensive if you don't already have one set up for other nuke stuff. Drop that expense and you can get quite a lot more hardware for your money.
But I need my land barge to potentially carry 9000 pounds and 6 people for at least 400 miles without a break, even if I can barely manage to satisfy one of those criteria once a year. Otherwise it's a miserable failure that must be mocked.
Australia here, I have a 100GB plan with unlimited calls Australia-wide for AUD40 a month. With the current miserable exchange rate with the US, that's about USD25/mo.
And any unused data rolls over each month so now I have (checks)..... 4.22TB of data available, because I have a dual-sim phone and my work sim does all the heavy data usage.
Again,
Ha! Welcome to corporate
There is a catchphrase in corporate - "Minimum viable product" and it means just that, memory leaks and all.
Thankfully, science will inevitably sus those papers out eventually, as it always does,
In the future, all search engines will have an option to ignore any results from 2022-20xx, the era of AI slop.
None of this stands up to any sort of robust critical thinking, which is sadly lacking in LLMs.
Eg. All your "high performing" worker input relies on skills gained elsewhere , and others have already asserted that the time spent doing one job is not directly equivalent to the time spent doing another job.
All your renewable energy sources rely on external inputs to manufacture or obtain. "We'll just use solar panels and battery storage and avoid all the centralised systems", you fail to understand the enormous resources needed to create such items in bulk, which is what you'll need when making hyper local energy systems.
Essentially, your dream society is leeching off capitalism to exist, and this seems to directly go against its lofty ideals.
