And their hair is amazing.

I'm not saying that they can't do it, it's that they can't legally do it.
Ugh. Acrobat actually craps itself on forms now. The check boxes keep disappearing during scrolling, and I have the latest reader.
"The amount of raw materials used is significantly higher meaning the ecological impact is greater."
It isn't and that's also not how it works
No they did not. This story is about how they didn't. Learn to read, coward.
This isn't about a trademark. It's about a patented specification.
This is true. And the Republicans are the party of Nazis.
More and more I am wondering if these AI "initiatives" are just an excuse to reduce headcount and figure things out later, rather than an actual commitment.
It's a bit of both. They really think AI will eat those jobs, and they're almost certainly right. It's just a matter of getting the timeline, and better to be early than late on big defining trends.
The glorified scripting that we're calling AI, along with other automation and robotics, is going to end entire categories of jobs, with nothing visibly in sight to replace them. Unless you can get governments to mandate make-work positions, there's really no way to stop the waves of layoffs that are coming.
It's easy to make your case when you just exclude alllllll the conservative media particualrly in new and alt-media spaces. Let's list some out:
With the exception of Fox and the WSJ (and maybe Rogan), that list has nowhere near the reach or audience numbers as even the worst rated MS-Now program. For every thing you list there, there's at least one and usually more left-wing equivalents. And all of that is beside the point, because...
For Republicans to claim they have no media presence
Uh, who is doing that? The whole point of the parent post was his assertion that conservatives are buying "all the media". It's a horseshit assertion, just like "Republicans claim they have no media presence".
while they have been dominating the entire media landscape for 20 years
Holy shit, you're either delusional or that's the most Stalinesque piece of spin I've seen in years. In what alternate fuckin' reality do you live in where Republicans have dominated the Big 3, NPR, Newspapers, wire services, etc etc etc?
You'd be amazed at how little effect firing execs actually has over the option of firing a bunch of low level worker bees .
Fire 1 exec for 12 Million salary
OR
Layoff 250 worker bees and save 25 million in salary expenses .
Nobody cares about workers at the level where these decisions are made.

It's legitimately frightening how conservatives seem to be buying up all the news media/p>
What? Please give me an example of "all the news media". Even if Paramount would get WB and properties, and even if you count CBS as "Pro-Trump" now... which is laughable on its face... ABC, NBC, PBS, MS-Now, The New York Times, and the vast majority of city newspapers and wire services are in no way, shape or form owned by, or friendly to, conservatives. Add to that the considerable influence of magazines... Politico, etc... and any notion that "conservatives are buying up all the news" is farcical.
It's also a way to get around the prohibition on setting different prices for SNAP recipients. For example you can buy over the net from Costco with SNAP on Instacart but not directly. And the prices are higher there than on their site.
Nuclear Fission isn't cost effective
No. This is nonsense. Nuclear fuel production has a massive ecological impact. Nuclear only looks good when compared to coal. Stop doing that.
Gyre is a more official name for the Pacific Garbage patch, as there are presumably few kids in it
Not really IMO, moderation is broken by design at best
If it wasn't for Newton, we wouldn't have to eat bruised apples.
