I basically agree. Those are actually insurance, and serve a purpose. Health “Insurance” isn’t insurance at all really…

As you get more and more specialized, this starts to change. If my expertise is selling matts for large cranes, then there are like 3 companies that do that. The companies themselves are no special, but your expertise in that area does have a special alignment with what that company wants to do.
Non-specialized positions, again, make this question worthless.
I think good answers, in this case, are more than “I’m passionate about x”. A specific scenario where you were really interested in a specific scientific question related to the job at hand would be much better. Again, useful if you’re going to be an engineer at Tesla, not useful for a cashier at Taco Bell.
Absolutely agree.
If you mean specifically health insurance… yeah this is spot on.
I think it’s more complicated for other kinds of insurance though.
As I say every time I see this joke, it’s a stupid question when McDonald’s asks it, but a good when when more advanced or complex jobs ask it. A person who is passionate about science is a better candidate for a job at an engineering firm than someone who isn’t. Plus, the question, done right, is asking “why this specific company” rather than why do you want any job. “Why FLIR instead of Tesla?” is a very different question than “why McDonald’s instead of Burger King”.
I wouldn’t say they were taken care of in this case…
But regardless, that’s a hardly an amount that would prevent someone from trying to do this again.
That’s helpful to know, but man, that’s hardly fair compensation for such a terrible thing.
They’re only asking for 38,000? Seems really low…
That’s very true. But, it’s something that appears to be way more common that it uses to be.
Is it possible to add a firewall rule to block it?
Did they clarify how they track “the same device”? If I replace my SSD, is that’s new device? Gpu? Motherboard? Cpu? Get more ram? Reinstall the OS?
And even then, I usually install on 2-3 different devices. And what happens when 10 years down the road I want to okay it again and install it on 2 more devices?
Crimes are prosecuted by the state. It’s hard if the victim is uncooperative, but not impossible.
That’s… stupid honestly
So … they raped each other? They could both go to jail?
It is the easiest way. It’s also the coward’s way.
I would prefer they did, but it isn’t the most important thing about my phone. My current phone does not, and I really like it.
It really depends on the topic. The big topics in Lemmy are better. But there’s a lot of niche content that just isn’t there.
I would prefer to use Lemmy, but it simply doesn’t have some things that reddit currently has. It could in the future, but it doesn’t have the user base yet.
