I’m not sure I understand why turning it into a business was the next step unless it was 1999. That market was saturated almost immediately. The web hosting may have had some potential, I guess.

It sounds more like you fell into exactly the situation that these laws are designed for—you had a big hobby, thought that made it a business, didn’t have a plan to make real money with it, and inadvertently may have committed some light tax evasion if you claimed anything as an expense. Hence, audited.

An audit isn’t an accusation of guilt, it’s an investigation into unusual or unorganized practices, which is exactly what you described doing.

Yeah, but most beings don’t get their tails cut off and teeth ripped out as kids.

It depends on the business. Highly competitive and volatile ones, like restaurants, can still be judged by longevity, in my opinion.

The only exception to this rule is the Chili’s on 45th Street and Lamar in Austin, Texas, which exists in a timeless negative space where businesses can not die. Will not die. They are watching.

Ever worry you’ll be reincarnated as a pig?

Of course, we could just ban ad tracking entirely and solve the problem in an instant.

I have had a fellow student randomly show me a cartel execution on YouTube before the automatic filters got better. It’s out there, and it’s possible to encounter it by accident.

I’ve got a house to sell you with a decent foundation, just don’t mind the permanent graffiti all over it.

Because Windows has some of the worst UI design in this quadrant.

If Windows had better security and update practices, software like CrowdStrike wouldn’t be a necessity.

Existing and being necessary are two different things. Linux and MacOS are operating systems. Windows is an ad delivery system that masquerades as an operating system.

They just made the poor decisions that made CrowdStrike required in the first place.

Your PC ran into a problem that Microsoft couldn’t handle.
