That's the thing PayPal Honey is saying they are respecting the "last click" rule and in their eyes there is nothing illegal in that.

Even if the creator as nothing to do with honey they are saying the last click is in honey just before checkout so they get the money. I understand this is a terrible excuse but it seems that's the defense they will follow. Basically they are hiding behind that stupid last click rule and using it to justify it's perfectly legal.

Basically Honey says "we just strictly comply to a standard practice in affiliate links".

I just got to say this website is a nightmare. At least 4 popups overlays just opening the article. The remove ads button just leaves the article and offer you to pay to remove ads. There is also delayed popups appearing while you read the article...

Are they speedrunning obsolence by making sure nobody read their articles online?

A well intentioned but bad leader?

Thinking about Fallout 4 honestly there was major mistakes.

Also people regularly spend more than they can afford.

When you think about it the fact that you can quite easily borrow money you clearly will not reimburse which is kind of an infinite money Glitch for capitalism.

Honestly, I think only trial and error will let us get a proper autonomous car.

And I still think autonomous cars will save many more lives than it endangered once it become reliable.

But for now this is bound to happen...

To be clear, they still are responsible of these car and the safety of others. They didn't test properly.

They should be trying every edge case they can think about.

A large screen on the side of a truck ? What if a car is displayed on it ? Would the car sensor notice the difference?

A farmer dropped a hay bale on the road ? It got flattened by rain ? Does the car understand that this might not be safe to drive on or to brake on ?

There is hundreds of unique situations that they should be trying before an autonomous car gets even close to a public road.

But even if you try everything there will be mistakes and fatalities.

Is there a feature to migrate users from one instance to another ?

I think it will be important when some instances will shut down. As long as people can move, then I think we can spread out the load.

I know my instance is handling the load very well and I'm really grateful for it.

The first thing I would do is anything that doesn't involve asking for legal advice on reddit/Lemmy.

If you a concerned about this: Ask a lawyer for advice.

Do people only throw away the caps?

Well yes, many throw caps and bottle separately and the people that throw their trash anywhere will certainly not care about the caps.

make it mandatory that companies recycle their own waste.

Lol.

In what country is it mandatory for companies to recycle soda cans ?

Seriously, what is the real-world impact here? Imagine for a second that some miracle vegetarian steak could be confused for a beef one. Why does it matter? Someone might accidentally eat a vegetable?

I'm sorry but you have no issues with a product label being misleading as long it's pushing people to eat vegetables?

Would you have the same opinion if it was an animal steak being sold to you as "Vegan steak" ?

Point is, we don't want misleading names for products. Imo people are actively trying to make this topic a political one when it's a consumer protection issue.

If it's not a steak, call it something else. It will be clearer for the consumer.
