Musk was always going to do this. It's amazing how many times Musk lies and people just keep believing anything he says. It's not surprising that Musk likes Trump. Both are pathological liars.
I deleted twitter around the time Elon's bid got approved. I was thinking about it for a while, as the app is just another way to get pissed off at the world. These moves seem odd given that Elon isn't even the owner…
I don't have much to add to this, but Facebook couldn't go away faster for me. My account is still active, but I deleted the app on the phone and probably only check my home page once every two weeks. My friends and…
I am glad she was found guilty, but there are a few concerns. First, she was only convicted of lying to her investors, not the actual patients, which is laughable. Second, she is supposed to get up to 20 years for EACH…
We kicked out a bunch of traitors from Congress during the Civil War era, so banning a person from twitter who is actively trying to foster a Civil War by promoting lies and misinformation seems pretty mild. Banning her…
Don't talk to the police. It really isn't in your interests at all. They are there to arrest people, not be your friend. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-7o9xYp7eE
I guarantee that most of these people didn't watch the special. They are just confirming Dave's message. Oh well. Dave will be fine. Netflix will be fine. I wish their was more uproar over other stuff that's on Netflix…
There is a lot going on with this guy. He says a lot of the "right" things and it's pretty clear he has a point with our system being really messed up. The problem with founding a new party is that it has to have a base…
I know people here are (rightly) worried about censorship by Facebook and other social media companies. The problem is that Trump and other fascists, don't give a shit about being fair or moderate or playing by the…
Shit. I have to use Zoom for meeting with clients on an iMac, what should I do to keep my computer safe?
> This practice meant that trades placed on Robinhood weren’t executed at the best price, costing customer tens of millions of dollars, even after taking into account the savings from not paying a commission This is why…
Yes, I didn't bring that up because I feel like Solar's manufacturing pollution isn't comparable to coal's ongoing and inherently massive pollution. Coal pollutes both in destruction of the physical land (strip mining)…
You ignored my main point, which is that coal is also subsidized because we don't accurately price in all the pollution. Solar would have been explored much sooner if we factored in the pollution.
The problem with this idea that we subsidized solar until it was profitable is not accurate. Solar power doesn't pollute and I would argue that all other forms of power that do pollute aren't taxed nearly enough for it,…
Zuck continues to prove what a scumbag he is. Trump has been fear mongering and spreading lies and disinformation for years. Zuck crashed the car and killed a few people, but now acts like he is doing the right thing by…
Would be great to short-sell right now, but that's almost impossible to do the last I checked.
Would be nice to be able to do whatever the hell you want, whenever you want. Billionaires play by their own rules, the rest of us plebs need to stay in our place.
I don't follow the blockchain world very well, but he makes an interesting point about it. Are there any projects, other than a few cryptocurrencies, that have impacted any industries significantly? I feel like we are…
No, I wouldn't know. I haven't worked for a company in a long time, big or small. I would imagine there are similar problems at start-ups, but the smaller scale would at least give you the chance at a fair shake. For…
The big tech giants have used this marketing ploy that "older workers don't understand new tech" to undercut them at almost every opportunity. I honestly have no idea why they are allowed to get away with this in the…
LinkedIn is one of those things you have and probably only use when you need a job or are desperate for clients. No one is there to get decent information or to genuinely connect with people. It's the digital equivalent…
Literally the exact same thing happened when people were allowed to day trade with better internet around 1998-2002. Everyone started day trading, especially during the tech bubble right up to 9/11. About 90% of retail…
The CCP bans so many apps, websites and other western technology, so this seems like a reasonable action just on that alone. And given how bad TikTok is with user data (mostly minors too), I don't see how banning it…
Didn't sound like he really wanted to study in America. That's fine, but if you don't have to do something, then it's harder to get value from it. I studied abroad because I REALLY wanted to. I was immensely looking…
