What does this have to do with the article or the post you are responding to? Be specific.

This is literally the kind of thinking that got us here, to the point of surveilance capitalism. Because credulous people like you thing that wanting privacy means someone is doing something nefarious. How's that worked out?

That's not why leasing matters to companies. Leasing is how you turn capex into opex. If you need a further explanation on why that matters you don't know enough to understand the response.

How is this moderated as informative? Leasing has nothing to do with ownership. You appear to be confusing $1 buyout leases (common with computer equipment) with......leases ending up with just owning things? That's not at all how leases work. Definitely not the mot common type that individuals are exposed to (cars).

Mint will alwys be superior to it's downstream Ubuntu because they aren't pushing gnome and have a real, polished usable alternative that just works. Ubuntu is going to be better for lots of people over it's downstream because real people often need to run software that was written expecting dependeinces that are less than 2 years old.

This is just a wild divergence from reality. I know your mind can't be changed because you are in a cult, but just wow. It's amazing how thoroughlly your bought everything you been told, regardles of all of the easily provable and easy to access facts that run contrary to basically every last thing you said.

Oh look, how uniqe a positon: AI can not fail, it can only be failed. You're prompt is wrong. You're using it wrong.

AI: Actually Indians

But Jason Statham doesn't do documentaries.

How did we get to a place where so many people are so credulous that they believed this story the first time it came around? Or that "AI" (read: machine learning") had sentience? It's a plagorism bot coded for syncophancy.

Yes, I get that there is going to be some percentage of the population that are either dumb or mentally ill enough to believe all of this, but how did that percentage get so high?

This is one of those statements where it's clear the poster doesn't understand the two thing can be bad at the same time, and one of them can be worse than the other.

Your concerns are the better of the only two bad choices available. Do nothing and "the market" will continue to act in the interest of shareholders rather than people, which is how we go here.....

No water problems here. It literally comes for a hole in the ground. Not sure who you think is subsidizing anything other than my neighbors since we're the ones paying the property taxes for the roads and schools.

Be in that meeting where they'll be discussing you and what you did.

It must be embarrassing to be this much of a sycophant and so entirely wrong about what the SEC does and does not do. You aren't worth correcting, only being made fun of and embarrassing, because it's trivial to figure out what the SEC actually does and how it could apply to this.

When will the SEC step in? Oh right, never he bought them off.
