<p>He was a cool guy. He used to come to my workplace more than a decade ago when I worked there and was always pleasant. He would always talk to a few of us (mostly my boss) and joke around. Sad to see him go</p>

<p>The postal service is a complete failure. As bad as some 3rd world countries. I get the wrong mail all the time and other people get my mail. Not just at home, but at my po box as well. I've complained several times and nothing has changed for more than a month. Neighbors have the same problem. They're so stupid that they give my building the mail for the building next door.<p>Lets also factor in that they're spending more, but delivering way less mail. Its a joke.<p>We don't need it to be privatized, we just need all the management to be replaced and same with MOST the employees which are actually not fit to work at any real job and that's why the government hires them.</p>

<p>Its nothing but a scam and anyone that supports it is completely heartless. It makes people poorer and nothing else. NYC has the national guard at its subways because its so dangerous. Its beyond dangerous still during many times. It is also always fucked up and is late or it breaks or other issues. Its not that reliable.<p>Its just a scam to grab money from already broke people that are suffering and only awful people support this because they can't think for themselves and are followers.</p>

<p>No, its not even close. They claim the whole "F" group is the best selling, not the F150 alone.<p>With that said, the Tesla Y and 3 are the best selling cars in the US.<p>Please check your 5 year old info before posting.</p>

<p>Win? Embarrassing himself and not being professional and not being able to keep his cool is not a win, its embarrassment which he has always been.<p>He lost a big deal because he wanted to be hostile and argumentative and against the truth (when Elon told him people will show whos right/wrong, he said that doesn't mean anything even if there is a study attached)</p>

<p>You're just saying this nonsense because you hate Musk because he's not a democrat anymore. That's where all the hate you have stems from.<p>With that said, he was given the same opportunity to other democratic leaders and they are on the platform with no issues.<p>Don was being a complete jerk and wasn't being genuine. Don has always been disingenuous and full of it. Plus everyone thats worked with him at CNN hated him</p>

<p>This is the most foolish and most uneducated response I've read. You're saying nonsense.<p>Just because we don't have the weapon that causes the issue the issue doesn't exist and is all in their heads?<p>Get educated about what you're talking about. Watch some interviews of people that have it.<p>We even know the exact sound the weapon makes.<p>You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.</p>

<p>You should be taking a stance. Screw them and trying to rip us off even more. This kind of shit should be illegal. No mergers no matter what unless the other company is closing its doors. Probably every single merger has screwed Americans</p>

<p>Stupid people don't understand it will make all costs rise and we won't end up in the same situation, but a worse situation because there will be higher markups as well (just about every business did this after the covid shutdowns)<p>People are stupid and I'm convinced these people want to destroy the country. When you raise wages, things like automation will happen much faster and people will have to do more work and there will be a ton of layoffs</p>

<p>> The tight integration of hardware and software is not only better for the products and consumer experience, it also means higher margins for the company<p>And yet they feel like they need to price gouge and charge a shit load of money and on top of it do basically the absolute minimum software testing and constantly with almost every update release a TON of new bugs they should have gotten rid of during testing.<p>You have too much respect for a company that USED to make great products and takes advantage of customers. Apple and Timmy are probably laughing at you.</p>

<p>> The data can say whatever you want it to say depending on which data you look at and how you interpret it and what bits you include and leave out.<p>This is what most people don't understand. Like 99% of the population. There is plenty of data that is fake as well when they want to brainwash people and there has never been more brainwashing in the US than there is today.</p>

<p>Stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life. You don't understand R&D costs tons of money that us taxpayers are paying. Why should be give that info to our enemies? Or even our friends? We shouldn't, it stupid thinking. They would never share with us even if we did with them.<p>That's now how the real world works, just in your imaginary "love and peace" world you made up in your head.<p>R&D is exactly why some countries are more successful and why some aren't. Why some sell things like technology and some are poor as shit.</p>

<p>You don't know what you're saying. That's because of virtual memory and its much slower. Apple's claim is bullshit and they lie.<p>Every modern OS compresses memory, not just the MacOS. And no 8GB is not equivalent to 16GB on a Mac. Apple says it so foolish people believe it, but its not true. Sure unified has advantages, but they're saying BS.</p>

<p>That's not the case for many brands. My GFs Jeep has transmission problems and a water pump failure at 17k miles. Its actually one of the worst car brands according to JD Power. She drives gently compared to me. BMWs don't make much sense to keep past 100K miles, they just cost way too much to maintain.<p>The only car brands you're talking about is Japanese brands and maybe the Korean ones.</p>

<p>This is completely wrong. Also, being "gone" which he actually isn't and is going to take I believe 30 days is not an excuse to not charge him for criminal acts.<p>He deserves to be in jail for a long time. He's done some seriously illegal things and destroyed lives separate from killing people in nursing homes and tons of other horrible things. He abused his power and so did his criminal father.<p>If he was a republican, he would be charged 100%</p>
