If that’s all one wants to consider when evaluating the ethics of the policy in question, then it seems like the “correct” policy.

You seem to have presented a non sequitur based argument.
I wasn’t making any positive claims. I was clarifying the terms of what one might consider “working”. And how we may want to consider how we value people without regard to geopolitical boarders.
You’re defining “work” as Chinese manufactured EVs having less market share. But if that means everyone that buys pays more for an EV and fewer EVs are sold, did it result in the most benefit for American citizens? What about the rest of the world’s population, in which situation is the net benefit greater?
Tarrifs are only a positive in cases where they are conditioned on labor, environmental, and other externalities being priced in and regional subsidies being countered. That seems like the case here.
But I suspect that the threat is being used as a negotiation tactic and China will call the bluff.
Nostr seems like it’s set up to allow for unmitigated abuse.
This is an excellent introduction for those that want to try it out.
Are you going to report balances in € now?
Probably not. There are several alternative projects being worked on with varying states of completeness and refinement. But the alternatives all seem to have off set visions for their projects.
That sounds like an opportunity I’d be foolish to turn away.
How do we make it happen?
I could not wrap my head around that game. I feel like I’m placing stones with 60% guesswork. I haven’t played much, but I couldn’t see the difference between good and bad placement.
It would be the difference between paying no taxes to either a) paying taxes on all funds received at regular income tax rates without the benefit of deduction of expenses or b) doing 99% of the work to still need to pay income taxes on net income (revenues less expenses). So if you’re going to do the work, it’s worthwhile to do the additional 1% to get all of the benefits.
Why not use the $9 plan at ghost.org?
These are conserted efforts to reduce the presence of “undesirables”, also known as homeless or unhoused, in the areas without public bathrooms.
When to use a VPN
VPNs are not magical fixes for privacy and security on the internet. However, there are some specific situations where they are useful tools.
Network blocks and internet censorship. VPNs can help you access sites and services that are restricted by your local network or government. That’s why downloads of VPN apps in Russia skyrocketed in 2022, after the country’s invasion of Ukraine and more services became blocked. The same trend happened in Virginia and other U.S. states after they passed laws requiring photo identification for adult websites.
Piracy. Internet service providers can sometimes detect when you are pirating movies, TV shows, music, or other media and send you angry letters. You can avoid that entirely by using a VPN when you download or torrent copyrighted material. Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free… but use a VPN.
Region-locked content. This is a popular selling point for VPN companies that is actually true: VPNs can help you access online content that is officially restricted to a certain region. Switching your VPN server to a different country can change what movies and shows are available through Netflix, and UK-based VPN servers are frequently used to access BBC iPlayer content in other countries. However, this is not always reliable, as service providers will usually detect VPN servers after a while and block them.
Accessing your home network. Setting up a VPN server at home is one way to access devices on your home network (such as self-hosted security cameras, media servers, and remote desktop) without opening up more of your network to the rest of the internet.
There are other more niche use cases for VPNs, but those are the most popular ones that aren’t completely made up.
What would it take for you to leave the platform?
the car, like a villa by the sea, is only desirable and useful insofar as the masses don’t have one.
I stopped reading there. This flawed axiom will not have a good argument built upon it.
Reducing the dependencies on cars is a great goal to strive towards, but articles like this don’t feel helpful to that end.
I feel like simply knowing that X, formerly known as Twitter, paid for neo-Nazi content and promoted it is all I need to know about their content moderation policies.
The law does seem like a generally good thing, but I doubt that anyone who would care hasn’t already abandoned the platform.
To give one example. It puts a link on paywalled Medium.com pages to view the page’s content on another site since a nlock list will no longer be able to bypass the paywalled content on Medium.com.
This seems like an extremely rare, high level of service and I’m still not convinced this would be the difference between EVs and ICE vehicle reliability if it was the standard at every dealer and independent shop over the past 10 years.
I attribute it to Tesla being a manufacturer that doesn’t care about the manufacturing process.
We need to wait until Monday to find out what IBM did?
If the only goal is to reduce emissions, your concerns of the production and use of more EVs should absolutely be taken into account. However, I don’t think that should be the only concern when thinking about the ethics of the proposed policy.
