So it’s the Linux equivalent of Phone Link/Link to Windows?

Maybe other space companies would be under budget and on time if they weren't run by Nazi drug addicts. I'm not typing a name but everyone reading this knows who I am a talking about.

They do not need more training. They training they already get trains them to be aggressive and abuse people. We need less of that, not more.

In the 2000s I knew a guy who was transitioning to software development after working in HR at a large American police department. He told me you couldn't become a cop unless you had a mental illness. They psychologically screen candidates to filter out people who have too much empathy. They would reject you if you said you had a close relationship with your mother, for example. They wanted people with aggressive tendencies. They loved it when someone had a superhero tattoo or had a parent die when they were a child.

People always comment that we need to do more screening before people become cops, do more training. The screening and the training are the problem.

Yes. There are questionable policies on the website where Ghislaine Maxwell is the top moderator.

Nobody at Google can read a room? This is like marketing a new, more effective plow during the Dust Bowl.

Or you could look up the dictionary definition of piracy and save everyone the trouble of explaining it to you like you’re a child

I assume everyone is using something like MoviePass because it’s way cheaper than paying full price. And they don’t allow you to pre-purchase tickets.

I want a social network that goes beyond banning bots and also bans the half of the population that doesn’t have an inner monologue.

Has there ever been at time when a wealthy person would run their mouth like this without any fear of an angry mob tearing their limbs off their body? Maybe right before the French revolution?

The French government issued a child porn warrant for the CEO and it isn't even a topic for discussion. That's what doesn't make sense to me. It's silly to talk about solar panel prices like reality matters at all to his cult of followers. It doesn't have to make sense. The less sense the better.

Destruction of art is the only crime I think should receive the death penalty. You’re making the world darker for everyone.

When Elon was a teenager he bullied another kid about his father’s suicide until the other kid pushed him down a flight of stairs. He has always been like this. His character was never a secret. Everything was in plain view but you didn’t want to see it.

Dark Sky would say “Light rain staring in 4 minutes and ending in 17 minutes” and that’s what would happen.

Apple Weather is nothing like this.
