Some coach diddles kids and the families and kids have to pay for it through insane tax hikes and less school funding? In what world does that make sense?
They already put the coach in prison for 15 years and probation for 25 years after that. Why punish the local community too? Yes, the families should be made whole, but not at the expense of objectively innocent tax payers and schoolchildren.
That’s not the bet. It’s a frivolous lawsuit with no chance at succeeding.
They’re either betting that defending it would cost more than $25M, that a bribe will bring them favor, or, more likely, accepting that the cost of doing business in Mein Dönald’s America is to periodically pay large baseless “fines” at the whim of a dementia patient.
He trapped a professional stuntman in a burning building with a pyrotechnics crew, multiple fire suppression methods, and a professionally tested saftey system?
Wait until you hear about what Ridley Scott did to Matt Damon on Mars.
Trained professionals with specialized on-site safety crews and kill switches. “But think of the children who will recreate this!” 🙄 Manufactured outrage to cash in on the Mr. Beast hate bandwagon.
It’s not a legal issue. They’d just shut down any accounts doing this. They already detect and shut down account sharing and this is just a variant of that. No law or government intervention necessary.

It’s certainly breaking TOS, so the country you’re in doesn’t matter.
Wake me up when Jellyfin does live sports
That sign is clearly a paid actor!
At this point, a 3 year shutdown may be preferable to allowing Mein Dönald to finish out her term.
Reddit. Unfortunately it’s defunct beyond repair now, but back in the day it was a nice place to discuss all sorts of topics with knowledgeable and like-minded folk.
Are we talking about Thiel or Elon?
Petition to make every fediverse comment require narration so that sarcasm can be easily detected.
Yes, but on the other hand: he got his and fuck yours.
Every company starts out privately owned. Being publically owned means you are legally required to put shareholders’ interests first and thus essentially be purely profit and growth driven, leanding to an unsustainable cycle of infinite growth which is a major cause of the enshitification of everything as we know it today.
Private companies can at least set their own goals and do things other than chase profit. Typically, that’s either “chase profit so the owners can cash out” or “focus on providing an actually good service/product so that profit/growth will follow”.
Private Equity is probably what you’re thinking about, where a PE firm purchases a company that’s either already private or they make it private again. There are many PE firms with many different management styles and goals, but the overwhelming majority have a goal of squeezing every last penny out of a company using any means necessary and fucking over the employees as much as possible before divesting it and moving to the next one.
That’s the beauty of it! The stupid overreaching big-government law says real doctors need to review appeals and review notes and consider circumstances. But that’s fuxkings stupud when a single line of code can deny claims and appeals at 1000x the speed and send EVEN MORE money to daddy’s dragon den which will then trickle down directly into MY POCKETS.
I took the liberty of writing my own hyper-advance AI to handle the task. It should only need 10 racks of GPUs to run.

Erhm, gubbermint unhealthcare has DEATH PANELS where they KILL YOU!!! I much prefer my profit-driven health utopia. It’s much more simpler, no panels required!
Fuck yes, bleed my dry insurance-senpai. Take my father’s heart and buy a chair for your 100th yacht. CEO shinigami-san I wuv you owo. 🤤
If you’re fine with self hosting, you can just self host it and backup your local drives to a remote location. That’s what I do.
For backup software, I use Duplicacy. But Veeam, Borg, etc… would work just fine. For images, since they’re just static files and you don’t really need a version history, you could get away with a scheduled rsync job. Though, technically that leaves you more at risk of ransomeware or something that overwrites your data.
For remote storage, I’d first consider a Hetzner storage box since they are flat-rate pricing and pretty dang cheap at $13/mo for 5TB. You might also consider StorJ, B2, S3, etc… I’d just stay away from any lesser known ultra-cheap storage providers.
The families that sued him and settled for $7.5M were from the community. Did they enable him? What about the children that attend the same school and will now have less funding for their education? Did they enable him? Do they deserve to partake in the punishment?
Make the people that did the offense pay for it.
