Garbage regulations like IP create these behemoths. If you want freedom, stop regulating monopolies into existence.

Statism creates billionaires.

Bold of you , to imagine that by that point in a few decades, that lake still exists.

Democracy is for retards.

Government did this. All of this. Government regulated so much that only a rare few can afford to compete.

This is late stage statism. Retard voters are to blame.

Like you.

The issue is too many people don't look at political party plans, they simply adopt a political party as their identity. They are not republican (or democrats!) because GOP propose plan with item 1,2,3, but rather because being republican is part of their identity. Once that happens and facts goes against that political party, it make the brain analyze it as an attack against identity, and use defensive reaction mechanism to protect identity, chief among them wholesale rejection of facts.

This is not only the republican which do that, but republican happens to be associated with right wing / authority / strength as an image (not necessarily a truth just an image) and far more likely currently to have the facts going against them.

They (conspiracy theorist from r/UFOs) take

1) a long period of time (the first "case" is from july 2023)
2) they take various profession and places mashed together
3) various situation mashed together (missing, suicided, murdered, one guy missing stating he did not want to live with his brain deteriorating etc...)
Then suddenly they find out there is a dozen such a case.


The thing is I would be not be surprised if you take so many different places, and people, over so many years, and check for disappearance/murder/suicide you would find similar number, but nobody will make a CT over your random white collar guy.

Grok was constantly say it was doing something that it had ZERO ability to, and I kept calling it out and it kept apologizing and then immediately doing it again.

As a guy who spend 5 figures a year on Ai, the last thing I want is that. I know Claude and ChatGPT also do it, but Grok was doing it CONSTANTLY.

or international skeptic forum. Argued to death with quite a few bigfoot believer ( all of them pretending they had proof that the filmed creature had a gait which could not be reproduced by human). That should be the nail in the coffin, but as we saw even with the Shroud, believer will continue to make all sort of excuses to continue believing.

Fuck you and that Ribbon.

I'm sorry. This is a topic that makes me nerd-rage.

LK

How in the fuck does using 15% of the screen for a ribbon provide a compact interface when the menu bar is the competition?

LK

I'm so happy to hear of how many people are expressing this same sentiment.

I absolutely abhor the Ribbon interface. I don't care what their market research shows. I don't care what their shills and evangelists say. I do not like it. It's not intuitive at all.

LK

I have hated the Ribbon interface since it became the default. I use LibreOffice specifically to avoid having to use it.

LK

This will not end well.

Why is this a problem?

I do not want my software censoring anything I make.

Even Texas has something like a 85% Urban population, and commute is in average commute nationwide is 27m (but there are wild variation depending on state (stealing from reddit :https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/191n6gq/oc_average_commute_time_to_work_across_the_usa/). The only really valid issue is resale value, battery price, and the difficulty to stop EV fire. That said I , like you I think, would rather buy an EV and see the advantage in the EV camp.
