Musk’s purchase and operations of Twitter are going to be case studies of Marketing and Business professionals for the next century - How to rune a $45 Billion dollar company and destroy years of branding almost overnight.

FREEDUUUUMB!

Tesla’s business has been shady is so many ways in recent years. Yet the fanbois continue to fanboi.

I certainly don’t understand the anger at AI generated works of art and trying to copyright them leading to jail time. But recently that was put to a legal test and AI generated copyright was rejected. I believe a lot of this is also in TOS and such. However why would a company who creates an AI not own it’s works and…

You are correct as it was put on trial recently.

Sooner or later - SMASH.

I think they know this. The bill is not being created to go after drug users. How about we end the war on drugs (prohibition doesn’t work). That takes the profit out of it, it puts potentially revenue into the government if we are smart, and it gives us money to help the adicted.

It is like warrantless wire tapping.

Or as with other such bills in the past it just gets expanded and used in ways it was not “inteneded” to be. Can you say “Patriot Act”? “Aimed” at terrorists”. How about “Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act” (RICO). “Aimed” at the mob.

I am sure she would like to go after the owners of the “Shadow Library”, the source doesn’t matter. Copyrighted material is copyrighted. If you are using it you have an obligation to know who owns it.

I had that exact same thought on YouTube. Google is blasting users for blocking ads and not here it is in their browser...

He doesn’t see himself as much of anything any more - other than a pile of gelatinous goo anyhow. It is just unfortunate he had to take 4 others with him.

Thanks but no Thanks. Chinese company.

So many reasons I am not using Spotify, Where do I even begin? 

If you need an iPhone to do that... Well anyhow how about reading and interpreting the ODB2 codes?

I thought most Italians actually made their own pasta. When I visited with 3 different groups of people I know there and in 3 different parts of the country - they all scoffed at store bought.

Agreed. Even the smaller venues have been gobbled up by big business and Venture Capital. VC is ruining this country - they are buying anything and everything. There is a good chance even your local Veterinarian office is now owned by VC and that number is growing daily.

I noticed a long time ago... A big concert 5 years ago was about $150 per ticket and the bears were $12-15 - I think that was a 12 oz. Any food was also insane. I think Little Caesars slice was $10 the last event I went to. Now it is even worse.

Greedflation is the term.

And you think people haven’t been doing drugs at concerts the whole time? I disagree. I think it is the expense at the Venues. $15+ for a $6 beer at a restaurant.
