apparently

That is why every ToS is meaningless unless you can somehow put a gun behind them as the ultimate enforcement with the courts, lawyers and the whole legal system as a fig-leaf-intermediary.

what does having engineering credentials have to do with being a sociopath?

Sure, the guys focused on tech don't usually think with an empathy of a nurse (novadays not even nurses are guaranteed to be empathetic), but I know quite a few devs and IT people who are extremely pro-social.

It's the managerial, financial-oriented mindset that is the greatest predictor of sociopathic character.

The more power one has in an organization the more socio- and psycho-pathic they tend to be, simply because it's easier to get to the top if you are an amoral person, who is not holding back for any reason other than having power. That is why absolute power corrupts absolutely.

MBAs are bred to be sociopathic money-grabbers - I know that from experience.

I once made the mistake of going into an MBA program. On the very first lecture the lecturer asked each participant for his/her motivation for being there.

Most of them said 'money' and those who didn't were asked again until they caved-in and said 'money' as well or they were laughed out by the lecturer.

MBAs are expected to be sociopathic or you as a company shareholder won't be able to motivate them easily to do your bidding.

It's like public/private schooling, but worse - those programs are designed to create mindless drones for the institutions that use them for their own policy enforcement.

yes, there are no coincidences, only signs.

There was also an art exhibition called 'The B-thing', before the attack: https://publicdelivery.org/gelitin-b-thing/

Then there are reports of FBI expelling from the USA some 100+ foreign art students after the attack.

There are a lot more dots to connect in this case, so it gets even easier but if people expect to be told the truth by a news anchor it can take 75+ years - that is the word we live in.

wouldn't you go into plea bargain if you knew there's 80% chance of conviction of you don't?

At some point the high conviction rate acts as a deterrent from not entering a plea. IMHO this is the case in the US and has been for quite some time.

That’s repeating the misunderstanding: the conviction rate is high because the government voluntarily drops or reduces charges when their case is weak. You have to think of it as “80% of the cases the government thought it would win” rather than “80% of all cases ever considered”.

What does lead to pleas is the expense of defending a case: if you acknowledge some guilt, you might decide to accept a lesser charge rather than exhaust your finances with no guarantee that you won’t get that lesser charge anyway.

actually depends on the age and life experience of the advisor - if it's an old woman I'd be inclined to listen to what she may want to say.

A young MD full of himself? I may be a bit sceptical about his know-it-all attitude.

people are emotional first and rational second

wouldn't that just be: "subappaltatore - una persona incaricata di svolgere un lavoro"?

Subappaltatore means subcontractor. When a contractor hires a second contractor to do part of, or all, the work.

But appaltatore isn't strictly a contractor in the generic term either, its mostly related to win a "gara d'appalto", so winning a tender.

doesn't Linux have virtual memory too? That would be retarded, though it would explain a lot.

and killing programs and/or freezing the OS is somehow more efficient? By what metric? Certainly not by any UX or productivity one.

I've moved to Linux from Windows some years ago but the first thing that shocked me was precisely the abysmal performance around low memory availability.

Got my system stabilized eventually by means of some magical incantations but this wasn't a pleasant experience and I wouldn't want to repeat it.

It's beyond me how come Linux is so decrepid in this particular area compared to Windows.
