<p>Except the US isn't trying to make strong trading partners, its a side effect of the xenophobia and racism.  If anything they are alienating anyone who would ever trade because every trade deal for something benign like, steel or whatever will include some random unrelated bull shit like "also if you want to trade you have to round up your trans people."</p>

<p>They mean good for everyone NOT the US.  Because now say, Germany or France, or where ever, come off as a better place to immigrate, so other countries can build stronger more competitice businesses.<p>This move, like everything the MAGA administration does, will only weaken the US.<p>Even better for other countries, anyone the US produces who isn't a raging idiot, also are more likely to want to immigrate from the US.</p>

<p>Yeah, except Twitter has no moderation anymore, in fact isnhas the opposite problem where people can pay to force their crappy views on everyone with blue checks.<p>Twitter isn't the problem, Musk is the problem.  Twitter was fine until he took over.  Bluesky is Twitter - Musk.</p>

<p>In addition to what the other commenter said, about Disney, I like to download Concerts and live tracks off Youtube, especially when they are early in the career of an artist I like, because you never know when the record company will try to memory hole that stuff and it becomes difficult/impossible to find.<p>Even with me and other like me, someone int he future has to happen upon someone who saved it, and is willing to share it, if you go looking.</p>

<p>The impression I get in some cases, is less that it's the best choice, but more that a lot of companies have decades of data or systems all inter operating with it, and migrating things to something modern would be a nightmare but they can't afford to lose the data.</p>

<p>I can't wait for the secondary problems cause by the limitations of "AI" understanding.<p>We have had some consulting company of people managing these systems in some buildings, and they would basically turn off climate controls in unoccupied spaces.<p>Then they started having moisture issues in the important spaces because the data spaces are cold, next to an unconditioned empty space, which got hot, and causes condensation on the floors and ceilings.</p>

<p>Not really, even as a local, you can avoid the place and will probably never see them again.
