Have you tried OpenRGB yet?
I have a Lenovo Flex with Aurora, which is a version of Fedora Atomic with “batteries installed” (nonfree libraries included) and a KDE desktop.
If you prefer Gnome that version is Bluefin.
The advantage of an atomic/immutable distro is that it’s effectively impossible to break, but you can’t tinker with the internals like you would a regular distro. And that’s still with fresh packages hot from the oven about once a week.

Y’all need the get on the sigma grindset, when tragedy strikes, don’t get sad, don’t emotionally process, just figure out how you can use it to manipulate people and make money

This is an excellently written comment, thank you!
but in fact the lawsuit appears to condemn their “anti-consumer tactics” while seeking damages from their “materially false and misleading” statement to investors in January.
I’m going to have to argue a bit here because you’re describing the legal case correctly, but the legal case is not the same as the reality.
Healthcare investors are fully aware that they profit over denying claims. That is their business model. They make money by denying claims. They are invested in profiting by denying as many claims as possible. Sure, publicly they will condemn “anti-consumer tactics”, but at the same time they’re lining their own pockets with the profits of those tactics.
The “misleading” statement by Healthcare United was that the profit would continue to be the same. Because claims would be denied at the same rate. Why was the statement misleading? Because claims were not denied at the same rate, more claims were paid out than before.
The medium article is sensationalized, but it’s also reading between the lines of the lawsuit. The investors are not stupid. The investors know full well that you cannot maintain the same profit if you raise your expenses. Profit = revenue - expense. Denying fewer claims raised the expenses. To be mad that profit didn’t stay the same, they are actually mad that claim denials did not stay at the same rate.
I guarantee you this lawsuit is not about improving healthcare and getting ordinary people the care they need. This is just another game of rich people making money.
SO, Blackrock is suing because “the public backlash prevented the company from pursuing ‘the aggressive, anti-consumer tactics that it would need to achieve’ its earnings goals.”
The “anti-consumer tactics” would be denying coverage on providing care. So, United Healthcare care was providing more care, and making less profit as a result.
Now I think the lawsuit is aimed at the earnings goals itself, and the communications around expenses, not the expenses themselves. “Too Much Care” is reductive, sensationalized, but it’s not outright incorrect.
Remember that privatized healthcare is inherently broken, because your profit model depends entirely on denying people coverage.
Which part of it is fake?
What’s the Russian bot agenda here? Make Blackrock look bad?
Is one of these murderous religious people in the room with us right now?
No they’re just ruling some of the most powerful and genocidal despotic countries in human history.
Famously he declared that slavery was justified because it was necessary to create the US:
Did we just find the Blackrock CEO secret Lemmy account?
It’s a fact that private ownership exists under Communism.
Ah yes the wonderful “freedom of property”, which means “the freedom of megacorps to buy up all the property, and overcharge you exorbitant fees to rent because you have no other option than to be homeless”.
The capitalism endgame is that megacorps own everything, regular working class people own nothing.
Only the megacorps are actually free.
All these states are universally impoverished and abusing basic human rights
As opposed to capitalist states, which are wealthy because a small handful of powerful people have extracted the value from everyone else, by abusing human rights.
long as it is notionally in opposition to the US and it’s allies
Man, I know I’m preaching to the choir here, but Russia isn’t even opposed to the US, as long as the Christian white supremacist fascists are ruling things.
The sheer irony of people playing defense for a white supremacist fascist state and then accusing someone else of being a “fascist sympathizer”. Like dawg the call is coming from inside the house.

Your comments are consistently high quality and there’s plenty of people reading without engaging who will be influenced in small but meaningful ways. You’re planting good seeds.
Darn, I have no idea what could be causing that :c sorry friend!
