They shouldn’t have believed it, but there’s a general deference to companies when they say things under oath. (It should be the opposite, but that’s what 50 years of Chicago school influence gets you.)

People are surprised partially because when working with antitrust regulators in Europe while buying Bethesda, Microsoft told them they had no economic incentive to make it exclusive. So while they didn’t technically lie, they definitely misled authorities at the time.
In fact, they don’t have a trench (or the ability to do water suppression) because Musk ran his mouth about moving the launch site to Florida to get more concessions from Texas. But in Space X’s Army Corps application for the trench (and what would be needed for safe water deluge) they said it was the only viable…
German unions generally have seats on the company board, so they are involved earlier and have incentives aligned.
The FTC has to have a trial before a judge trained in antitrust issues (Unlike this judge, who did not have any background in that area.)
Part of the issue is he tweeted about moving the site if the army corps didn’t approve it for the trench, and the army corps was like... in your application it says you can ONLY build it here, can you clarify if there are other places you can build it? And they never responded so the army corps cancelled that project.
Also a lot of modern Lovecraft inspired work does engage with his awful racism and xenophobia - Lovecraft Country being one of many recent ones that included a TV show on HBO.

My understanding is they never officially promised they would stay, but in all of their filings they said “We have no economic incentive to make them exclusive or not release them on PS.” and the European authority took them at their word without requiring promises. Which they then immediately went back on as soon as…
There’s probably more evidence of mergers going poorly (For workers and consumers) than of them going well.
Basically the character Peter B Parker is that in Spiderverse
Isn’t that exactly what happened? He’s still there just not the PR guy?
Honestly, just do this but all over and all the other stuff doesn’t really matter.
Nah, Cavalish is just racist and mad people say don’t be racist. Someone like them brings out the bad faith arguments in any article like this. They just need to own who they are, a racist who loves racism.
Yeah, so they no longer need hole cameras to see what cards players have for broadcast.
It’s kinda like the Clone Wars show revitalizing the SW Prequels - they are still really flawed but try telling that to someone who loves the Clone Wars.
Partially you get out voted because Desantis is implementing new versions of Jim Crow by not restoring voting rights to people that explicitly were given back to them.
Also ICE engine efficiency is only about 25-30% whereas electric is closer to 80-90%, meaning even if you were using the exact same gasoline in a power plant and not greening the grid, it’s still much much better than gas.
Also as other people have pointed out, she could have authorized her lawyers to accept service. (as is extremely common.)
