JFC, that is a lot of uneducated nonsense. “X” is losing 400-500 million a year, we know this from companies that lent him money and are public. I never said Elon would go bankrupt just “X”. Trump has constantly done anything he wants without care to precedence and has shown that he’ll do anything for a dollar. He also is a dementia laden fool that can be led around like a puppy right now.

I never said Elon was an idiot, that’s why I think he’ll get Trump to bail “X” out. Specifically because you don’t get that rich by losing money or passing up a chance to earn the kind of money he can off of Trump.

Everyone looks at mega businesses as immune to decay. They’re not it just takes longer.

I think “x” may actually be the first to topple though. It’s losing money at an insane rate and that’s with a mega election year propping it up. That’s one of the reasons Elon is pushing Trump so hard, is for the government bail out he’ll get.

That went the other way, it is easier. The ending was just putting him back.

Now, you know it’s up to you whether or not you want to just do the bare minimum. Or… well, like Kolanak, for example, has thirty seven pieces of flair, okay. And a terrific smile.

Note this is talking about regular gummy bears, not even edibles…

In the US at least, it’s not a requirement to wear a seatbelt in the back seat most places.

True but that’s extremely rare for people to do.

Shrug dead is dead. Short or long it doesn’t affect anything. People are just sentimentalists.

Getting imprisoned for thousands of years unable to get out.

Seriously though, how does it turn?

Haha, I’ve gotten so used to leaving the door open I forget to close it when guests come over. And have make a mad dash to close it when I finally remember.

Sounds like big cat propaganda to me.

It’s a different risk vector. While companies want your information to sell, they don’t want to take over your computer to use it in a bot net or steal your bank information and clean out your account.

Open source by it’s very nature relies on a lot of people having good intentions, free time, and knowledge for it to work well and safely.

Absolutely that’s always good. I was talking more about someone intentionally adding malicious code though.

Because China has always held it would start a full-scale invasion if they ever did. So everyone ignores the elephant and keeps the status quo…

While it was true for a long time, I don’t think Taiwan expects to get China back anymore. It’s more not to start WW3 for the last 30+ years

One of the big weaknesses of open source is the same as democracy. Nobody has time to review every piece of code (or research and hold accountable every politician) which leads to risks.

Aren’t you assuming everyone else can’t care about video games because you don’t?

Why does being a programmer matter? You’re not implying that technology groups should care about programming I hope.

It was broken before then, the whole distributed user and instances is hard for the average non techy. This is the same issue Linux has. People say “just install Linux” but when the person Google’s it, they get destroyed with 30 plus flavors and don’t understand what to do.
