I remember when cars were made from STEEL, had STEEL chrome bumpers. If you bumped into someone, you might
scratch the chrome. Now, bump into someone and it is a multi-thousand dollar repair! Plus, with all the electronic sensors
and what not, makes it even more expensive.
Rivian R1T Fender Bender Turns Into $42,000 Repair Bill
Here’s Why That Rivian R1T Repair Cost $42,000 After Just A Minor Fender-Bender
Trump is transactional. All he cares about is money and ego.
* glances over at the combined fiscal and narcissistic worth of the Pelosis, Clintons, and OBidens *
Maybe if it were only slightly less blatantly fucking obvious..
You can glance at them all you want, but they're not even close to Trump - by an order of magnitude, or two.
This discusses recent presidential net worth before and after and how they made their money: Chart Shows Net Worth of US Presidents Before and After Office (2024) with Obama and Clinton making most of it after leaving office, and Biden from real-estate . Trump lost money after his first term due to the economic downturn during the pandemic and $590M in loan repayments and is currently raking it in via various, putting it politely, avenues (link below).
The net worth as of 2025 (various Google results):
Bidens: $10M - mostly property
Obamas: $70M - mostly books
Clintons: $300M - books, speaking, investments, consulting
Trump: $6.2B (down from $7.3B) - most while *in* office: Presidency Boosts Trump’s Net Worth By $3 Billion In A Year
Pelosis: $280M - investments (big-cap tech stocks) and real estate (most probably during her 40 years in office) and her husband is a venture capitalist.
List of presidents of the United States by net worth: #1: Trump, #4 Clinton, #12: Obama, #25 Biden.
If that's true, that violates freedom of contract, and should not be banned. But it doesn't matter because the only thing that the government should regulate in that situation is that important details about the car that is sold should be listed. Fraud is illegal everywhere.
Ya, but once everything is available as cloud-only services, how much RAM and storage will us consumers really need?
How many hours of an Asian font designer'(s) time can you buy for $20k? It'd be funny, if it turns out that firing the font company pays off in less than a year.
This is the difference between a government that cares about consumer rights, and a government who gleefully applies the lube for corporations to fuck you with.
You get lube? Luxury!
I bought a pretty powerful gaming desktop 8 or 10 years ago. Now it still runs all of the games I play
I have a Dell XPS 420, that a friend gave me years ago, that is currently running Windows 10 just fine. Don't know when he got it, but the system came out in 2007. I'm sure it would run Linux (Mint) very well too, though I'll be switching to a system I built already running Mint 22.2 (ASRock Z77 Extreme3, Intel i7-3770, 32GB RAM). Neither system meets the (arbitrary) HW requirements for Windows 11, if I even wanted to use it. I also have several other very old Intel-based systems that run Linux fine as well as one Athlon 64 X2 system running OPNsense. Newer isn't always better - use and needs count for more.
Also users (both regular and corporate) are quite literally exhausted of getting fucked in the ass by Micro$haft repeatedly
Still better that what you'd get from MacroSoft
It succeeded in, conveniently, disassembling itself *and* landing at multiple places at the same time.
lowered sales growth targets for certain artificial intelligence products
lower quotas for specific products
If it's something customers actually want, or even need, you don't need sales targets/quotas.
The AI assistant ate my homework.
There is zero value in some big scary climate risk number also being disclosed, because A that risk accounted for if you are studying the details anyway and does not help you make a rational decision, because it literally does not affect you beyond the places where it is already baked into the numbers.
If you don't care why the insurance is so expensive or unavailable (e.g. high risk of flooding) then maybe you also don't care about why the house's price is so high (e.g. nice location, good construction, etc). No need to even look at the house. Just treat the whole damn thing as an abstract exercise in numbers.
OTOH, some people might actually care about details. Maybe because they're considering living there?
There is no comparison between murderer and freedom of contract. Moron.
Yes, that reason is socialism. Adults should be allowed to participate in medical research if they want to (and the researchers want to hire them). No one is forced to use an AI. Your argument is invalid. Typical socialism. If the average adult is stupid, that is their own problem, not societies. But, nota bene, a good education could have remedied that stupidity. However, the educational system is ran by politicians, and suck (and I am not talking about USA now - I am not American). That is why a lot of adults are stupid, but the politicians try to blame AI-companies for their own failure with the school system. Typical socialism.
There are two kinds of egotists: 1) Those who admit it 2) The rest of us
