It’s a reference to monetary compensation often given to high level executives in large companies for when they leave for some reasons. Usually if the leaving is on a short short time frame as opposed to finding a new position they leave for voluntarily, although I don’t know that much about how they actually work.

Stooping to insults does you no credit.

I hope you get a better life.

Plants feel pain and communicate with each other.

But where can I actually get some dog meat to eat? Gotta at least taste it to see if it’s nice.

That sounds perfectly reasonable, just like sanctions against other countries that are doing something the sanctioning countries don’t like.

Is that that thing where someone says something wrong to get the right answer explained to them?

Maybe engineering used Windows 97?

I salute you. Not many that are willing to do so. Maybe because most people don’t have very deep convictions on using FLOSS. It is easier to just do what everyone else does, after all.

We just need a proper solar flare to help us get back on track

Would even be great if we had no reason to trade oil at all. But that is improbable for the foreseeable future.

Why not on the 24th?

Drug?

EDIT: Did you mean “dragged”?

I really like Kerbal Space Program.

And I also really like Factorio for all my logistics/factory builder needs.

It seems to me that you missed my point.

Why do you have it that way and not the more standard way of rotated 90 degrees from what you have?

Well, you’re in luck; they’re releasing Baldur’s Gate 3 in a few days ;P

Unfortunately they won’t give you any sources to back up their claims, because they are projecting hard.

I just prefer that people actually are precise in their language to make things as clear as possible. Saying “FAANG-like companies” is precise and correct, saying “FAANGs” is nonsensical. I would always use FAANG as that acronym, if you just want to mean “Big Tech companies” then just say that instead. It’s a lot more clear to a lot more people who don’t share your tribal-speak of your workplace. People federated here are from a lot more places and making it easier for everyone to know what you’re actually meaning should be a good thing.

Now you’re making a strawman. Other humans that are actually making art generally don’t fully copy a specific style, they draw inspiration from different sources and that amalgamation is their style.

Your comment reads as bad-faith to me. If it wasn’t meant as such you’re free to explain your stance properly instead of making strawman arguments.

Has he said that no other humans could be inspired by his art style? If no then he hasn’t expressed a want for monopoly rights to his art style. But he has expressed that he doesn’t want computers to generate art explicitly to mimic his art style.

Also don’t make claims that are totally disconnected from the argument discussed. It’s dishonest discourse and serves as a way to brush aside the other argument. You didn’t make any counterargument to my argument and the point of this chain which came from you saying that “Not every human activity deserves compensation” as a reply to someone saying “Greg wants to get paid, remove the threat of poverty from the loss of control and its [sic] a nonissue.”

Your reply to me was inane.
