Yeah, I just closed the agency investigating my company so there is no enforcement mechanism. Legal alludes to a system I now own and control because it’s better for me that way. Going to pass a few joke statues or pardon myself if there are any teeth left. Thanks fucking peasant.

Clown shows can be funny. This is like watching pallbearers drop caskets at a children’s hospital funeral.

It’s not necessarily you getting older; there is a fundamental difference in goals, aims and quality of software now. 99% of major software is either funded by VC or incumbent monopolists who are interested in extractions primarily and establishing moats, barriers to free and fair use, and any way possible to monetize an interaction. This is why those of us who lived through the actual innovation stages aren’t excited anymore as it’s clear this is not “progress” and the warning flags are there from the first marketing pitch.

This entire timeline though was part of the plan, it was never going to be free/cheap, functional and easily accessible forever. We are in the frog boiling phase now that doesn’t end until we take back some of what has been lost.

Who doesn’t want 800 versions of “it’s fucking connected” for home Internet like we have for cell phones? Innovation! Think of the unnecessary choices, gotchas, customer service queues, class action lawsuits that are much more difficult thanks to the supreme Court a few years back… what’s not to love?

G-14

It’s easy when the news is owned by for profits bound to repeat whatever is given to them for the ends of “both sides”, and the precipices of higher education like Columbia and Harvard jump aboard the misinformation wagon so as not to upset rich and powerful donors or lose “government grants” held at the barrel of allegiance.

Meanwhile, Trump’s idiot doj is saying people egging Teslas is terrorism. When actual terrorism is refused to be labeled as such, attempting to redefine the word to their twisted ends.

Everyone learned about those in grammar, don’t insult the man’s intelligence.

Lobby to get rid of government bureaucracy like Theil so you can have your delivery boy get you the info so you can sell it. Ideal.

Not arbitrary at all. Focused, targeted, lobbied and paid for by an industry that massively benefits from shaping the body of knowledge and discussion around the topic.

Arbitrary implies indifference or accidental; this is strategic, premeditated and predatory.

Was thinking about that. The whole hardware cycle needs a sanity check where phones, PCs, money of the annual “improvements” are now just software slop, AI slop or deck chair rearranging, or breaking things that used to work.

So you’re assuming that no one in Trump’s circle made any trades in advance of yesterday’s tariff pause cancellation? Do you know the exponential return you could get on a short-term option when the underlying investment moves 20% in a day?

The constiwhat? What year do you think it is?

WWEducation coming right up!

He’s going to try to run after Trump, isn’t he? Would be shocked if he didn’t. He’s already setting up his confederate pivot

When rich people get affected, people go down

Curious to see how they approach this with their partnership with Verizon. I get it through a family plan, seems like it will be impossible for them to regulate who is/isn’t part of a phone plan, since that could legitimately change at any time. Imagine they won’t pursue it.

Musk’s SpaceX is suing to have the NLRB declared unconstitutional with such awesome groups as Bezos Amazon, so that workers in the US stop having so much power and dominating economics, politics and society…

Or Amazon, if you don’t like your employees having labor rights, just sue to have the NLRB declared unconstitutional with such awesome groups as Elon Musk’s SpaceX.

Big spenders here, NetZero crowd checking in.
