You should actually read that article beyond the “unsubstantiated” tag.
It’s very likely he did say either exactly those words or something very close to them. It’s just that no one recorded or transcribed him saying those because it was a private conversation between him and another individual who only wrote down the encounter 40 years after it happened.
Or you can do like I did and simply put an extra hard drive in, load Linux on it. Then use your old Windows hard drive as a storage drive. For the first couple of weeks it was a nice safety blanket to have.
Oh, and if your PC doesn’t have the room inside for an extra hard drive. Make it an external.
On Tesla’s third-quarter earnings call in October, CFO Vaibhav Taneja said that “the total paid FSD customer base is still small, around 12% of our current fleet.”
Gonna be lower soon. LoL 😂
How is this fool a billionaire? Oh, yeah. Peter Thiel using him as a distraction.
I love how the author keeps bringing up how expensive it would be to implement a system of cloud computing rental because no one would pay the amount it would require to make such a thing profitable. But we’re talking about Jeff bezos here who took billions of dollars worth of loss for over 10 years before making Amazon the profit machine that it is now. Simply by making things cheaper for a long period of time until the customer base eas so used to the model that they could picture doing it any other way and their competition went out of business. I can totally foresee them doing this exact thing with cloud computing. Make it really cheap get people hooked where they have gotten rid of all of their in person computers and then, once access to home computing is either prohibitively expensive or impossible to do because parts are no longer available or otherwise impossible for people to switch away, jack up the price and make it profitable by squeezing every dime out of the average consumer.
This was also, by the way, Netflix’s strategy as well as Spotify and all the other cloud-based services that people are “addicted to”. Take billions and loss to get people used to your service and not consider any alternative. Then once you have a captive audience shoot that price to the Moon.
If Trump is actually able to stop or delay elections this year we have bigger problems.
I don’t think you grasp just what it would take to actually stop elections.
I see your point but I would counter with the fact that these are probably all lawyers who know the ins and outs of our justice system better than most people and should they join the ACLU or other organizations that are going to be suing the government over all of the civil rights abuses that they’ve been perpetrating these people will be invaluable.
Course that’s all predicated on our court system not being corrupted before we can put through a regime change in this year’s midterm elections. Trump is trying hard to shove in as many friendly judges as he can right now.
The indictment is for his testimony but the reason for the indictment is actually because he won’t lower interest rates the way Trump wants him to. Because he’s not there to fulfill political needs, he’s there to keep our economy from crashing into a mountain of stupidity.
I was actually talking about here on Lemmy. Though I have been banned from a few subs on reddit as well.
I’ve lost track of how many subs I’ve been banned from cause I pissed off a friend of a mod.
Since I’m one of the people who is on the fence about whether or not to pick up a Nintendo Switch 2 or to get myself an ROG Ally (I have $250 of gift cards for Target which don’t sell the Steam Deck) so that I can play steam games on a handheld. I heartily disagree.
And it’s Nintendo’s anti-consumer policies that is making me hesitate on the Switch 2.
And now you know why Microsoft bought it. Nothing better than a captive user base.
I am really beginning to fucking hate AI. Like, before I just didn’t care for it, it just wasn’t really my interest. But now I’m really beginning to fucking despise that shit and I really can’t wait to see the “AI economy” completely fucking destroyed.
If companies have been allowed to run roughshod throughout your country, then what you’ve had for the last 10 years is not liberal policy makers but conservatives wearing liberal makeup.
I don’t think her switching religions had a detrimental effect on her mental health. Probably quite the opposite. And it really doesn’t matter that she switched from one mainstream religion to another mainstream religion. It’s not like joining an offshoot’s going to be any better or worse. She was seeking peace. Maybe she found it, maybe she didn’t, that’s for her to decide in whatever afterlife she ended up in.
Yeah, you are still pinning her for her belief in Islam because members of Islam have been and continue being vile detestable people. But they aren’t vile detestable people because of their belief in Islam any more than the Christians, Catholic or otherwise, are evil because of their belief in Christianity. They are vile and detestable people regardless of their belief. Their religious beliefs isn’t the source, though it does end up being a justification for those acts. But that’s just sophistry used to cover their own prejudices.
She dumped Christianity and chose a different religion. That doesn’t make her culpable for the evils of that religion any more than anyone else is for the deeds of others who believe in the same religion they do.
Again, religion does not equal church. She spent a lot of time as a Catholic trying to make other Catholics see the evils within the church. I think she just became tired of being the town cryer in a world that doesn’t give a shit. And Islam, the religion and belief system not the various organized churches, might have held some amount of peace for her soul. Criticizing her for converting and not starting a whole new crusade to stop the myriad of abuse found within the various sects of Islam is just silly. Especially since there are already a million voices pointing out the faults in the Islamic churches already.
Islam in and of itself is not problematic, not anymore than Christianity at least. Like with literally every religion, it’s the strict conservatives within the religion that are the ones who enforce ridiculous mores and dress codes and other things that are detrimental to the health of the followers of that religion.
Watch her get out in a year and be invited to go on the Republican lecture circuit to talk about how woke politics is ruining American college campuses.
This isn’t a joke, I seriously think this will happen.
I’m just looking at that “top 1% poster” label next to their name realizing that there’s no way that anybody in that particular sub is going to believe a qualified professional over their own personal biases.
