Yeah, should be 0.(6).

That can’t be it, cause then that’s all 4/4 horsemen of 3/4 present.

Where did I say “government does stuff”? If a service is provided not for profit, funded by the community and is otherwise not privately owned, it’s socialist. It needs to be for-profit and/or privately owned to be capitalist.

Arguably, The US does have several socialist policies, albeit implemented very badly. For instance, public education. Does capitalism stick its grubby fingers into it from every possible angle? Yes. But at its core it has collective funding through taxes (therefore owned/controlled by the state), universal access, and the prioritization of public welfare over profit (at least on paper). Those principles are strictly socialist and not capitalist.

It’s not about strictly “owning”, it’s about controlling. Control can be achieved in many different ways, including, but not limited to regulations. Socialism is an economic system, of which you can implements certain parts.
I didn’t say “social policies”. Socialist policies are a more specific subset of social policies, so all socialist policies are social policies, but not all social policies are socialist.
Regarding the European countries’ degree of being socialist, it of course depends on the country. But on average, you might be right, and perhaps using “equally” was an exaggeration.

Lots of people on Lemmy forget that the choice between Capitalism and Socialism isn’t binary. Country picks individual policies that are capitalist or socialist in nature. All of the modern countries are a combination of both. Even USA has certain socialist policies. Most of Europe is roughly equally capitalist and socialist.
It’s just making a character build and picking perks. Capitalist policies aren’t bad (for the general public) by default. Depending on how and which ones are implemented, they can be beneficial to everybody.

And yet, lots of people choose not to do what they hate for money. Obviously, if you can get paid well for doing what you love is a win-win, but the point of my argument is that a lot of people don’t really care about money, beyond having enough to get by.

It still might be, don’t give up hope!

Have you never heard of scientists or artists? Lots of people prioritize passion over money.

Dang, that labtop is so old it has a dialup modem built-in.

15,000 years in the past is absolutely not enough to go back to monke. Even just the modern homo sapiens existed for the past 150,000 years. But I suspect to expect those bros to know that is irrational.

I see. Looks to me that they just rebrand cheap Chinese phones and sell them in Russian-speaking countries. I doubt they offer anything extra compared to the phones they rebrand, except maybe Russian translation for the UI.

Could you link, please?

IIRC, all new small electronics sold in EU should support USB-C, but there are some exceptions, which I don’t remember. Mostly it was for wirelessly charging devices, like smartwatches and earbuds.

Btw, does your username have anything to do with the capital of Azerbaijan?

That is correct.

Even for a 2020 release, it must be an outlier. Actually never heard of BQ Mobile until now. Apparently, they released their last phone in 2020, and in 2021 completely ceased operations. They were probably trying to use up all the remaining micro USB port modules to cut costs or something.

What phone is that? Genuinely curious. Was it actually manufactured in 2022 with micro USB?

I think the “Cat Looks Inside” meme would’ve been more appropriate, because the “Let’s See Who This Really Is” (a.k.a. “Scooby Doo Reveal”) meme is more about revealing something that is actually different, while CLI is sarcastic. Like “Wireless device. Look inside. Wires” isn’t revealing anything serious but makes fun of the misleading nomenclature. A good SDR example would be pulling the mask off a KKK member to reveal a cop, while they are supposed to be on the opposite sides, they are one and the same.
On the meme spectrum, SDR sits somewhere between CLI and “They are the Same Picture”.

Thank you for not coming to my MemTalk.

MagSafe/Qi2 is definitely convenient, but you have to be wary of its downsides. 2 of which are:

• wireless induction wastes a good amount of energy being transferred
• wireless induction additionally heats up the battery and reduces its lifespan

But the good news is, it’s basically the defacto standard. Since Apple opened up this standard it pretty much killed all the competition. The adoption is expected to increase in the coming years.

At the risk of sounding like Blizzard, don’t you have a phone? Even my previous phone, Galaxy S8 had USB-C. Or do you have an old iPhone?

Pretty much all electronics that came out in the past 4 years use USB-C. Just an example, here’s a non-exhaustive list of things that I charge with C:

• MacBook (2020)
• iPad (2018)
• Galaxy S10e (2019)
• Steam Deck (2022)
• Nintendo Switch (2017)
• Kindle (2020)

All of these are, on average, at least 4 years old. So I’m pretty sure the average consumer has already switched to primarily USB-C
