"USENET died when ISPs noticed few users actually used it" - it also died a bit when deja-news was bought by google, turning it into google groups. ISPs were now thinking (incorrectly, of course) that they were paying for some Google branded service...that was coincidentally getting less use directly because Google was offering a web page interface to the same data.

So it was a gradual fade-out at the ISPs initially as people started trying web-bb's (never totally caught on, and survivers like SJGames' illuminati board have really low participation for the readership, really). The fadeout accelerated when Google replaced the usage of the service AND the impression it was an open, distributed system into Google one that Google alone should be paying for.

Actually he won't, because they already are using this as messaging that the Biden administration (and the already fired BLS exec) were lying about job numbers the whole time in order to make Biden look good going into the election.

Now this is where we can't trust the revisal - is it to justify the dismissal, or is it real, or is it both?

Nothing is trustworthy anymore, to the extent it ever was in the first place.

by that moronic reasoning an acorn is an oak tree

a 12 week old fetus ain't an infant, son

Boosting the anonymous post that was also a reply to this. Fair Use is defined as a matter of our right to reference a section of a work for commentary purposes. In general the excerpt length is 20 seconds, but there can be exceptions for longer. While the interviews tend to go longer, his "top 10s" are all less than 20 seconds in excerpts and even they still get DMCA claims. Those are the ones he wins the most, but it is getting ridiculously costly to have to keep fighting them.

jesus, you idiots post this dreck in every goddamn thread. it wasn't even clever the first fuckin' time, it's certainly fucking stupid as hell now

I'm near DC. My core team partner is in California. My boss and my primary PM are in Ontario. Most of my team is split between two cities in India. Another team I work with has members in India, Ontario, and London. Yet another team has members split between Ontario and Georgia (the state).

Nobody I directly work with in any capacity is in my office building.

So...what's the point?

also, it's not a sieg heil unless the guy's wearing an SS uniform.

so, between 14.8 and 22.3 degrees held for more than 2.87 seconds, and also an SS uniform. also they have to yell "sieg heil" for it to count

besides, we all know it's only a nazi salute if the arm is held out between 14.8 and 22.3 degrees

it's not a sieg heil unless it's held for more than 2.87 second, that's the international definition

i mean, maybe he was just trying to show everyone how tall a horse is! yeah, that's the ticket

>>ridiculously short in duration

uh yeah, lots of sieg heils are quick, dogg. this is a fucking moronic thing to go to the mattresses over

this isn't a case of someone taking a still shot during some politician's hand wave and being all 'LOOK IT LOOKS LIKE A NAZI SALUTE'. the guy did two full-on nazi salutes.

>> Musk makes a gesture to a crowd that ends in his arm being up and out

also known as a "sieg heil"

oh that's gonna be off by orders of magnitude.
