Ugh just say the words.

He got a break so he got to blame Obama first and now he gets to blame Biden.

STR?

JFC I have to be more specific? A law that defines allowable products is a law. A ban is a ban. If you want to ban a COMPANY that’s a ban on the COMPANY. not a LAW that defines allowable products.

Do you seriously think a company that has to adjust something just throws their arms up and says “Oh I guess we’re banned”? When the EU required USB-C ports did Apple just say “fuck I guess we’re banned, we’ll withdraw from the EU and lose all that revenue” or did they just put in a USB-C port. JFC. That law did not ban Apple the COMPANY.

JFC I’m leaving this conversation.

A law is a law, a ban is a ban. JFC.

And no they won’t go away if all they can do is post ads JFC.

Haiti is on the list of 19 countries with full or partial restrictions, which also includes Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, the Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen, Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan and Venezuela.

Uh no that’s not how it works. Classic Lemmy.

Then it’s not a ban, it’s a law. Which they’ll likely follow so that they have at least some level of business

European operations are already subject to European laws.

“Your ad account has been terminated,” X’s head of product, Nikita Bier, wrote on the platform early Sunday.

Bier accused the EU executive of trying to amplify its own social media post about the fine on X by trying “to take advantage of an exploit in our Ad Composer — to post a link that deceives users into thinking it’s a video and to artificially increase its reach.”

Replaced by knock off versions and nothing is solved.

There’s a tourism decline because of Trump. Long term it’ll be fine.

It’s an experience now. You can disagree with it, but it is. It hasn’t been just for gambling for a long time.

There won’t be an explicit decision to up and leave to create a new city

No. Shit. Sherlock.

Do you understand that you recycle water? Set up the system like Vegas and your toilet flush today is your drinking water tomorrow. It doesn’t go poof into the ether JFC. That means you only have to ship in the losses JFC. Piping in water losses is fucking easyyyyyyy. Relocating millions of people is harrrrddd. JFC you people have no idea how things work. Water prices will go up yes, quite a lot when you consider it’s close to free right now. It’s not going to be a expontially increasing graph until the end of time like you’re talking. I’m gonna leave this conversation.

Vegas is a destination to its own now. Collapse isn’t happening. Give your head a shake.

I highly doubt in this scenario. Water is not that expensive even shipped, and you only have to ship in the losses. Building anything let alone a brand new city? Fucking insane. Think about every house, business, and industrial builiding. It’s unreal.

Bum fuck nowhere might go under because there’s no business there anyway. Vegas is not going anywhere.

You can recycle your water very well. Vegas has a very low loss rate. It will be cheaper to pipe water in to replace losses than build an entire new city.

It just got too toxic when she turned on Trump. Pension was coincidence that it was only a couple months away so announce to take the heat off and stick around doing nothing.

No they aren’t lending legitimacy, and no they are not helping prop up, and no its power won’t crumble. And no, they will think about the big picture rather than throwing a tantrum and quitting which won’t accomplish anything. Scratch that, not only will it not accomptlish anything, quitting will set back the country another 50 years. The intelligent thing to do is to stay, for alllll the reasons I have already outlined. I’m just repeating myself and you are not absorbing anything so I’m out.
