Fine, I won't invite you to our bi-annual TURN server appreciation event.

I found "The Indian Cookery Course" by author Monisha Bharadwaj.

The synopsis sounds like what you're looking for.

I haven't read it nor heard about it before, just found it using a quick google, so can't comment on it's content I'm afraid.

might have to relocate their servers or domains rather than incur costs of compliance.

I'm wondering about that, as I fear it's insufficient. As long as (1) there could be UK users (using a VPN or not), and (2) there could be "adult" content, the law applies. At least, that's how I understand it?

Corporate tax is a tax on profit though (talking in generalities here obviously,

Thank for that remark, important distinction indeed.

Blows my mind people led around by the nose by the GOP still believe their rhetoric about this

Why so adversarial? I'm not even part of that game, on a totally different continent. Blows my mind that the so many people think politics is binary groupthink - sanctimonious indeed!

The observations I mentioned above are factual. Blows my mind that it's so easy to get angry at measurements.

The government is a funnel, not an endpoint. Keep following the money.

That's endless, wouldn't you agree? Especially considering all money is, is someone else's debt.

but where's the ad-hominem?

"Gotta love people like you who deliberately etc..."

There wasn't a need to rebut anything. Your comment confirmed what I asked from the start. Just in a very unpleasant, toxic, angry, way. They're the same thing under a different name.

Fucking hell what a toxic, ad-hominem, reply!

(although the tariffs have effectively amounted to that without actually saying it)

Especially considering we're saying the same thing.

Politics really destroys the logical thinking part in many people's brains.

Let me rephrase: in the system that exists, today, the argument "it's consumers that end up paying" works the same for the tarrifs as for sales tax?

How does that stinky stupid fucking law work with fediverse? Number of known accounts on the particular instance?

How does that fucking shitty law work with nostr, where there is no concept of accounts nor users?
