It would go back to the investors since they are the ones funding the company. If the workers invested then they would also profit. You wannabe Marxists are tiresome. You literally post your bullshit from $1000 iPhones and pretend to be edgy and cool. You are not. You are hypocrites.

You're such a pr*ck.....

Comment Re:Glad finally a successful launch. Now cancel SL (Score 2) 113

Time to pull the plug on supporting throwaway Old Space.

Cheaper, better alternatives will do the same with a fraction of the SLS's funding, which can instead be used to support science and manned Mars missions.

MarsMarsMarsMarsMarsMarsMarsMars......seeing that we have NEVER had a permanent off-world base (not counting ISS) and Mars is several weeks (at least) travel time away, I would think we need to get our shit together for Mars by setting up bases on the Moon first for practice. If something goes sideways, at least a trip to the moon is only a couple of days (assuming rescue ships exists by that time) as opposed to weeks or MONTHS away to Mars.

Another big issue with Carvana was they were unable to send the car titles to car buyers in a timely fashion (weeks or months waiting on titles). Without the titles, buyers can't get the vehicles registered, therefore they couldn't drive them legally. Steve Lehto has published a video or two about this issue.

Comment FingerOnTheApp trolls on Twitch... (Score 1) 92

They are probably trying to mitigate IOS FingerOnTheApp Twitch stream trolls who post donations with a name like HeyZeerie or some other stupid shit that sounds similar to "Hey Siri", which the streamer usually reads out loud, which causes Siri to wake up and makes you lose the game due to Siri interrupting the game.

If any of this money was actually going to be seen when it went to treatment, I might be able to overlook the fact that these pharmacies were just filling scripts by the local doctors writing them.

So far billions have been paid to counties and states all over the U.S. with these opioid lawsuits. With the amount of money paid out to these places, one would expect to see the streets lined with free treatment centers. Not only are there not free treatment center lining the streets, but people are still dying in record numbers. The only difference is that now that these folks can't get opiates that are safe, they die of fentanyl in larger numbers.

All these lawsuits do is pit the medical industry against patients, further increasing the cost to us end users and the time it takes to get anything done.
