What does his wealth have to do with Apple's ethics or compliance with antitrust law?

Are you assuming his claim is true? He didn't get rich telling the truth. Three different AI apps have reached #1 this year. Deepseek, Perplexity, and GPT.

I made no assumptions. I simply asked a question. You went straight to class warfare and assumed he's lying, because he's rich. Maybe he is, and maybe he isn't -- if it goes to trial, the court will decide. Until then, the question stands: What does his wealth have to do with Apple's ethics or compliance with antitrust law?

Comment "Dark message mode" (Score 2) 17

Notable features include "dark message mode" to adapt message content to dark mode

This isn't a feature, it's a bug fix. And, it's long overdue. But, huge thanks to the Thunderbird team for addressing this.

The myocarditis risk is higher from catching COVID. Getting vaccinated is lower risk than catching the disease, for all age groups.

Getting vaccinated does not decrease your risk of catching the disease. It's only purported to lessen the severity.

So, if you're just as likely to catch COVID regardless of vaccination status, and the vaccine itself is known to sometimes cause myocarditis... follow me here... getting vaccinated increases the number of vectors by which you can get myocarditis.

Comment Bullshit (Score 0, Flamebait) 273

So, specifically, from which scientific fields will we lose all of this talent, and to which countries will these people be moving? Further, in what ways will the NSF counterparts in these supposed other countries benefit R&D by foreign researchers?

*Takes quick perusal of the article* Ah, it's DEI bullshit that's being cut here. And, the likelihood of any of this research being funded by another country (other than Canada) is highly dubious. Therefore, the entire premise of this article is laughable. No scientific talent will be "lost to overseas competitors".

We forced approximately 10 million people into driving Uber for a living...

"I didn't force them."

*Looks around the bar and shouts* "Did any of you force people drive for Uber?"

Surprisingly, one blue-haired man drinking an appletini (at least that's the assumption) raised ziz hand.

"See? Nobody forced anyone to do anything of the sort."
