kumatomic , in State Medicaid offices target dead people’s homes to recoup their health care costs

I guess the only good part of not being allowed to marry (without losing almost everything), have assets, or afford to own anything as a disabled person is when I die the fuckers don’t get a thing. My partner can go about his business.

sleepmode , in Mike Pence will not endorse Donald Trump’s presidential campaign

He refused to comment on it before and got mocked for it. Why now?

What are the different rates? How much variance is there?

peopleproblems ,

From memory it varies between about 67km/s per megaparsec to 74km/s per megaparsec.

Also it’s really weird to describe something in terms of km/s when you look at an area over millions of lightyears

A_A , (edited )
@A_A@lemmy.world avatar

Those are weird units indeed :
(1 km /s) / 1 mega parsec =
(1000 m/s)/(10^6^ x 3.0857×10^16^ m) =
1/3.0857×10^19^ seconds =
1/978 x10^9^ years.

So, when we multiply by the rates (which are either 67 or 74) we get :
1/ 14.6 giga years or
1/ 13.2 giga years
… basically ( 1/ “age of the universe”).

Meaning physical observation disagree about the age of the universe …or the theory is faulty.

It’s not really clear to me that changing ownership is an effective way to address the issue.

I mean, sure, owning a media outlet gives you leverage over it, but it isn’t the only way to influence the outlet.

And, yes, you can gather data on users with TikTok…but a lot of apps can gather data. And they don’t need to be out of China, either – a typical US company probably isn’t going to directly aim to leverage user data for CCP political goals, but on the other hand, they also may be quite willing to sell data that could wind up in someone else’s hands. Even anonymized data isn’t always effectively anonymized or can be deanonymized when correlated with other databases.

Hell, my understanding is that in Russia, a significant problem is people just paying off employees to hand out databases that their employers have built. Like, with Navalny, the fact that it was the norm that stolen databases of phone call histories floating around in Russia was shocking to me. But even outside of Russia, if you have a major power that really wants to get its hands on some data at a private company enough to commit real resources towards doing so, how secure is it? Instead of owning a company to get at its user databases how much would it cost to buy off an employee to hand that database over? I’d bet less than it costs to buy the company.

How much would it cost to pay someone to open a back door to the company’s network, and how secure is that network internally?

They are after tiktok because of its influence and not having total control of the algorithm. For other social media platforms govt can simply write an email and companies will comply immediately by censoring the information. Also this post somehow make sense.

Only until Trump has a little talk with him.

werefreeatlast , in Missouri law bars divorce during pregnancy – even in cases of violence

I’m a guy and I’m here to say that my wife is angry about this. Hold on let me tell her to stop tapping and wash the dishes and feed the kids!.. anyway, yes we want their rights back! 😜

C’mon chicks…revolt! I’m just being sarcastic plus I would never call anyone a chick. But yeah, fuck yeah revolt! WTF!

rusticus , in Sandy Hook Lawyer To Aaron Rodgers: 'Could You Please Shut The F**k Up?'

Seriously people, we need to encourage Rodgers (and Kennedy) to run. The only voters that would be attracted to this ticket from the Conspirator Party would have been not voting or voting for Trump. And a vote not for Trump is a vote for sanity.

Swift action though. If it was Texas, they would have given them scholarships.
