Wrong answer

I’m sorry

The same fucking answer

It’s like shouting at a wall.

Honestly, I didn’t see it that way. With the dash, I do. That works as well. It’s just that, if I put a dash somewhere myself, it’s the other way around.

“non-POSIX compliant” = compliant with non-POSIX (whatever “non-POSIX” may be)

“POSIX non-compliant” = not compliant with POSIX

The best way to say what OP did would be a simple “not POSIX compliant”. Looking back, that’s exactly what was said in the post. The meme itself is, unfortunately a different story.

All in all, the “non-” prefix is a bit finicky in english and can usually be avoided.

Everyone knows ChatGPT had a happy growing up with a cute lil doggy at home when he was young. Did you know he was millenial as well? He was born as soon as Clippy died, since that’s how reincsrnstion works.

And you’re trying to tell me this isn’t perfect for sharing?

FADAQ!

Not in their eyes.

Phones already literally come with a EULA. The wording may or may not be the same, but the intent is.

You don’t own your phone, you silly thing. What you own is an unexclusive and transferrable (for now, Teslas don’t even have that for example) licence to use most features of the phone.

Clearly because money = financial security

Sure. Let them whatabout. But to us, consumers, it shouldn’t matter.

We know the stores aren’t responsible, so we shouldn’t attack them.

The processors are. For Visa and MasterCard it’s pretty obvious. Itch, as you said, puts direct blame on Stripe, and I think we can trust that.

As much as processors need banks, banks also need processors. It’s a sort of symbiosis. Damage to one actually trickles onto the other. So pressing onto processors isn’t a mistake. It’d be foolish at best and malicious at worst to suggest that.

Now that we have leverage as users and consumers, having started a push which made way and caused a response (first the prepared phone statement and now a press release), the absolute wrong thing to do is bacl down and say “sorry, we were wrong, it was B after all and not you, A”.

And look at it this way: There’s less payment processors and they’re smaller than banks. If you suddenly turn to banks, you won’t accomplish anything because to them, a few consumers who aren’t their customers doesn’t cause them even an itch. But if payment processors come to them it might.

It never was about the laws. If it were, Mastercard wouldn’t have been doing it for quite some time now.

It’s truly idiotic. They backed down to 200 phone calls from CS. They probably cited that rule, saying doing what they do (processing payments) will damage their brand.

Lo and behold, once they stopped processing transactions their brand got damaged. And due to the ego damage already associated, they won’t back down and backtrack not that they actually have a problem on their hands. What with their brand being seen as discriminatory, weak to undue influence and excersizing undue power against their own clients. Very “good brand” of you, Mastercard.

If Mastercard wants to display Christo-fascist family friendlyness they can slap a cross onto their logo and change the font to Comic sans.

What a time. When ads were typeset in *checks notes* Calibri.

Nor did you read between the lines.

Apple devices mostly aren‘t significantly more expensive than their counterparts by other manufacturers.

However, most of those offer cheaper alternatives that Apple doesn’t.

So, there are no Apple counterparts for what “other manufacturers” make.

So, Americans?
