The way that always works is to send a message to an admin.

In the case of .world, there are many alternatives that probably work better, though. Matrix and email are probably their preferred channels for this.

You can see those alternatives around halfway along the sidebar on the right, if you go to lemmy.world with a browser. And the admins list is at the very bottom of said sidebar.

Ah, and they didn’t expect the non-UK income and the UK income to count towards the same threshold?

At least in Finland the 0% tax bracket ends at something like 1300 € per month, and I doubt they were getting that little per person for touring internationally.

There have been Finnish politicians joining Mastodon in in the last few weeks.

Yeah, I’m aware of this.

Didn’t Spotify just move to a system where they will pay anything at all only to 12% of their artists?

Isn’t the point of a label to organize getting money to you from people listening to your music?

So, they somehow forgot that income tax exists?

How can the existence of income tax come as a surprise?

What are those “withholding taxes”? Is it something most of which they will get back in a year or two?

And of course: Why does Sony organize tours this way? Make them employees of a EU-based company and pay them through that. Should remove most of complications.

So, you’d promise that whoever brings you a sum of money, gets a lump of uranium? The more money brought, the bigger the lump? That would be kind of cool!

the underlying OS has improved in a few areas

Which ones are those?

What a well-written article. Many thanks for linking it!

They are having a conversation in the Fediverse.

Nuff said?

Why what?

Sundials were absolutely surely invented several times around the world, also in Australia etc. After all, a sundial is nothing but a stick in the ground.

If mechanical clocks were invented before colonizers arrived, then the colonizers’ clocks eventually replaced them. But, I understand they were invited only after all of the southern hemisphere had been colonized by less civilized nations, so they follow the colonizers’ standards everywhere.

Sorry, I did understand all of the words in your comment, but not what you actually meant with it. Could you paraphrase, please?

So does Finland:

(Except in internal timetables of bus companies, that typically run until 30 o’clock, as it still officially counts as the same working day)

Have you noticed how common it is for buses and trains to leave at 23:59? The idea is to make it clear what evening the train is really running.

In Finnish we call noon “12 o’clock” and midnight “0 o’clock”. Makes things a lot more clear.
And the first hour of a calendar day is indeed 0:00 until 0:59:59.99… Since there are only 24 hours in a day, there cannot be a “24:30”. (Except in internal timetables of bus companies, that typically run until 30 o’clock, as it still officially counts as the same working day)

I know it’s called that way, because I’ve seen the same movies. But was SolidShake meaning his comment sarcastically, meaning that “There was no way for me to know that most of the world uses the normal clock” or without sarcasm, meaning “I had always assumed that most of the world uses the normal clock.”

He could really mean either one. I could probably delve into his comment history and make some kind of a psychoanalysis based on those comments? But, meh.

Yeah. Which is what I said. 11:59:59.9999999 is indeed AM, jos like you said. And then comes a tiny sliver of time that is precisely at the border, but a trillionth of a picosecond after that, you’re in the PM world. After the infinitely short moment that is the actual precise noon.

Why?

In general?
