I think is a bit like what happens on retail. The same or very similar product is sold by Aldi as WORKZONE, Lidl as PARKSIDE, MXD at MD, DEXTER at Leroy Merlin and so on.
And if you search it sometimes you can find the exact same item sold on Aliexpress or Amazon with a strange brand.

Also Biodance is legit. https://biodance.com/

Except that only a tiny percentage of people don't buy it, the corporation will not notice it.
On the other hand because videogames aren't essential items, one could simply spend their money in other videogames or even other things.

I think a sonic espresso machine with sonic teameri it's going to be a great prop to be in the TARDIS.

I'm not going to buy it, for me it's better the Jolla phone in that category. And for me the ideal smartphone is a cheap Motorola bought for 170 euro at the grocery store, with a bundled charger and a cover.
I think that for kids that phone could be an interesing idea, but it's expensive.
I can unsertant that somebody could like that phone, but not me. It's like the Kobold: my neighbour has one and says it's a great vacuum, but I'm ok with a 50 euro one bought in a discount. different people different needs. And yes like the Kobold, I'm not going to buy one.

ITÃs not the equivalento of the Trump phone, because is an original product, it runs Sailfish OS like the Jolla Phone, has better specs than the typical flip "senior" phone, like the ones made by Nokia or Panasonic and has some hints of the retro look.
I think that phone isn't clearly for people that are in retrogaming or retrocomputing but another demographic. The price it's quite high, so it isn't a kids' phone and neither a senior phone.
I think that it's aimed to "hipsters" that like to have a quirky thing to show at their friends, so the fact that it's expensive in that case it's a plus, and also the fact it's different: a Jolla phone looks like a smartphone, this is different.

Ony if they are ads for the local cat and dog shelter. Adopt a puppy! Please!

I think that data centers are hyped by real estate people, building some construction it's always good.
Twenty years ago there was a construction wave on building malls, until some of them started to become dead malls. One place proposed was near an airport, but at the end nothing was done and the project was scrapped because it was clear that nobody was interested to have a shop opened there, especially because having a jet taking off or worse making a go-around doesn't make the better shopping experience. Now somebody wants to build a datacenter in the same area, because now it's the thing to do.

I you look at computer engineering course, they aren't vocational and make you learn on how to program, especially because they are electronic engineering geared more towards digital and microprocessor circuitry.
Unfortunately employers tend to prefer people with a MsC rather than people that made vocational schools, and then find that people just graduated don't know the latest technology they use.

I think that a Sinclair C5, modified to use lithium batteries could outperform that rating too. And a tram doesn't have a steering wheel too, at most a point switch remote control, and for it's intrinsic properties, having steel wheels running on steel rail instead of rubber tires on asphalt, it's more efficient than an equivalent bus.

There are a lot of people going the same place at the same time actually. Think about factories, schools, offices, and so on. With a working public transportation network you can make people have a better transportation that driving. Not all case and people are covered and for those people using a car or a mixed mode could be an option too. This is going to decrease the overall traffic, so people that must use a car have an advantage.
There is a mall near me that was built initially with a car centric idea: near the motorway exit ramps and with a giant parking lot: they subsidized two bus routes to have a stop in front of the main entrance of the mall, and hava a bur every 15 minutes, and it worked, they got more teen without diving license and older people that lost their license, but also people that have a car but they don't want to use it to only visit the mall to buy few items or to eat there.

If somebody need a classic landline phone for reason there are alternatives. I have FTTH but also a '90s touch tone phone connected to the router and a VoIP number and I could send and receive faxes if i want. They could make an offer to people that still want a landline the phone company could lay fiber and put a router with VoIP. If there's cellular coverage there are cellphones that look like landline phones if one likes it. From a technical standpoint I don't see any reason to stop landline-like services for everybody.

I think that they didn't have read anything written by a guy that was born in Trier, that talked about the tendency of the rate of profit to fall, the commodity fetishism, the crysis theory and so on.
They think that communism and socialism have failed, but it's a lie thay they are telling themselves, forgettig about where all the stuff it's made now, mainland China.

I think it depends a lot on the subject but a lot more on how the people are talking about it.
I'm a bit old school so I listen to the radio quite a bit, especially live programmes where people are interwieved. So it's a bit the old version of a podcast, but being on radio they're professionally made.

Yes I think that tech compnies CEO especially those involved in AI are like Daleks with less empathy.
