I am a cruel master, I have never even let it download a software update.

Using a few simple truths to cover up bigger lies. Oldest trick in the book. The dude is a shit bag and you need to start questioning the motives behind every single thing.

My opinion, and this is simply an opinion, I don't have proof. Is that Trump is anti-capitalist. He does not want to see free enterprise in this nation. Instead he wishes to consolidate the power of industry under the Executive Branch. He essentially is taking steps to create a very American form of a fascism to supplant liberty, democratic, and capitalism. The Soviet Union could not beat us in the Cold War, but it turns out we were far more vulnerable to an enemy within than we realized.

"Far better" is an exaggeration. Your example doesn't get you talking and it takes more time than a 3 minutes lesson with an app like Duolingo.

But whatever gets people excited and regularly practicing is fine by me!

Write your own OS in Rust and then your friends will never mention operating systems or computers around you again.

The real money is in the data center share.

My smart TV hasn't guessed my wifi password yet, so I think I'm still safe.

Some bootlickers with mod points today. Good job, you've wasted your time on censorship instead of boosting good posts or helping to filter out truly off topic and offensive posts.

The master system was great, and I prefer it for it's technical capabilities. And there were some real gems on that platform. But if you wanted to talk to your friends in the 80's, the hot games were all on Nintendo.
Nintendo is an aggressive company with rotten business practices, but as a cultural touchstone, their systems won.

The listening and speaking exercises are helpful and worth doing regularly for beginners trying to get an "ear" for an unfamiliar language.

Oh dear, I didn't realize I said that if you can't solve everything with a single solution that we should give up. If I did, I'm terribly sorry because that would be completely wrong of me to say!

Manchester United F.C. is an Association football club established in 1878.

Stocks are kind of crazy at this level. You basically can get a credit line (like an LAL) for around half of the stock you hold. For some in the tech field they might have 1-5 million in assets they are treating as retirement. But can borrow from it tax free to write a check for a $2m home. Exactly the sort of shit that messed up the real estate market in the SF Bay Area. The rich don't have the same rules as the working class.

It's speculation. AI may become the biggest shift in the market and society in all of human history. Like telephone, internet, smartphone, and tractor all rolled into one massive paradigm shift.

I believe the intent of AI startups is to be in early to capture a slice of a potentially massive market. But I am less confident that the winners will automatically be the early adopters.

I'm white so I will probably just get pepper spray or taser at the most extreme.

But if I had a darker skin tone in the wrong neighborhood with the wrong cop, my life would really be on the line. Illegal choke hold or shot are a pig's favorite.

Various fascist factions will openly fight to control the White House. Actual votes or popularity won't matter. The winner will be the one who is the strongest, the most violent, and the most willing to commit brutal acts.
