How is the data distributed among the positive and negative y axis?
It’s symmetrical. There is actually nothing negative shown in that graph. The graph could be flat at the bottom on the axis that it would change nothing. However, it looks like soundwaves.
That’s why people vote for Trump and that’s why Bernie Sanders came close to win the primaries. People don’t want the status quo suggested by the establishment of both parties.
It’s out of sync and I don’t know how to scroll manually when it happens.
There is a little bit of controversy around the bike paths in Montreal, because car users complain that they don’t do enough for them. The city is crippled with many road repairs and projects that moving through the city a pain in the ass. Anyway, it’s obvious that Projet Montreal doesn’t care about car users.
I mean everything goes to shit. 2023 could not get me more pessimistic. 2020 was a bad year, but I still got hope that it is temporary. Now, I see that companies have no limit in screwing their consumers and I can’t do anything about it.
Oligopoly. We are witnessing how useless the offices for competition have been for decades. And they punish borrowers with higher interest rates.
Yep. It’s an oligopoly
FOSS software as the underpinning of the platform that is then accessed by a closed-source client is, ultimately, the best circumstance we could ask for.
Red Hat is one of the most successful companies that relies on FOSS, but what do one think of their attempt to restrict access to their source code.
I don’t want the video game industry to turn into an oligopoly, but I see your point of the impact of competition on the quality of games. There is a need for competition, but being a big company doesn’t garantee good games, which is demonstrated by Battlebit vs Redfall and Hyper Scape.
I admit that I cannot expect Activision-Blizzard to compete with Microsoft at the state they are, so there is no point denying that acquisition for that reason. However, maybe small developers would have more chance to succeed and take ABK market shares if there is no acquisition.
It get harder and harder for government to regulate corporations as they get bigger and bigger and are multinationals. That’s what happens with tax heavens.
I understand corporations motives, but the parent commenter explains well that it doesn’t work well if they are too greedy about it.
Like the texts in the tabletop Warhammer 1st edition campaign. Only one character in the party can read because of literacy in that universe and era. I understand why.
