Boston Dynamics robots looked really good a while ago, and I wonder what improvements they've actually been making over that time period.

This sounds like something every consumer will pay for in the future instead of getting it for free.

Lets see what The Product has to say about that. How far their wallets will actually open.

It's a scam.

You are correct. This is a good thing.

Now let’s just see if The Product agrees to no longer be The Product by way of paying for every social media service.

Also known as that thing consumers used to do before the idea of actually charging money for services became “racist”.

Are there people out there making backup copies? Same with wikipedia .. which could get shutdown anytime.

Unfortunately, yeah. The support was bipartisan. I hate Bush (and always opposed the Iraq war) but he did a good job building bipartisan support, I admit it.

Is that real?

>They're currently accusing the current administration of doing EXACTLY what they'll gleefully do the instant they have any advantage.

Give it a rest. "accusing" the current administration of doing? Come on. The fascist administration knows no law, and they are abusing the law to the FULLEST.
SO don't give me that crap about "The Democrats MAY do it" They could have hung Trump out to dry with the Epstein files. They didn't because it wasn't *lawful* to do so.

God I hate you stupid anons. You think your argument holds water? Post under your real name. I think you know it's shit and are just stirring your own little shit pot.

If anyone is the Godfather of SaaS it's Marc Benioff, and he wouldn't call himself that.

Calling yourself "godfather" is a sure indication of a scam. This guy helped build some web services at Adobe, and that's it (mainly esign, but after docusign already existed).

Yeah, his argument is weak. If he stops hiring, then his business is doing badly. If he does layoffs, his business is doing really badly.

If his business is doing well, he will tell you how many millions/billions of dollars worth of sales it made.

It prolonged the peace of Westphalia.

You realize movie scripts are something that someone who smoked an acid laced joint scribbled on a piece of paper, right?

Well, how often do you plan on getting the flu?

I saw this about an hour/hour and a half ago on the front page in a red highlight. it was around the VSCode story. Then it disappeared until now.

A glitch in the Matrix?

This shows the danger of forgetting ideology and politics* in your software development and more importantly purchasing. In order to safely use an open core product like VScode or RedHat using a fork is absolutely crucial but it's not enough. You need a project like Rocky Linux or VSCodium and that project needs to be seriously supported to rip out all trace of the upstream vendor. The other forks then need to fork from that fork not the original. Someone needs to care about getting full control of the software and not just getting it to "work as quickly as we can".

And also, yes, this does still affect Microsoft customers and users of MS VSCode because the developers of many open source extensions and code that they all use will also be using forks; this means that it will be easier to attack those developers and through them users of VSCode. Microsoft's Embrace/Extend strategy is putting their own customers at risk yet again.

* yes, I'm baiting a little with my choice of words, but we keep being told by certain groups that these things aren't important. Then those groups get upset when the people that were interested in ideology and politics start taking their freedom away.
