Wow, good thing you aren't a major campaign manager with the DNC. They'd be screwed with you spouting that rhetoric.

Not anymore it isnt.

The DRAM market was depressed before the AI boom started, so if it ever returns to previous conditions, you may be right.

What upsets Altman is he doesn't get to decide who has a PC.

Also smart contract defined tokens may allow tokens to be frozen per the terms of the contract.

Some chains allow freezing specific transactions. It may or may not require a consensus of validators. It's rather controversial among crypto enthusiasts.

Not your keys, not.your crypto.

I missed the part that said it involved leftists, fats, or lesbians.

Yeah, let's ressurect a 30-year-old flame war!

I wonder how this all compares with how things were before the Google and Apple duopoly. Reading through the description, I had some flashbacks of the hoops app developers needed to jump through.

There's a sniff of, embrace, extend, extinguish...

So far as I know, the problem has not yet been detected on other planets or spaceships.

I'm guessing that Martians don't run Windows on their computing machines.

If you're arguing that people are bad at their jobs then so be it. Clearly someone fucked up at Warner in order to accumulate all that debt. At the same time, if the people getting bounced were really deadweight then they would have been included in the layoffs. They wouldn't be getting buyout offers and/or be getting pressured by an RTO order.

They'll probably postpone is US share prices start dropping.

Skydance doesn't really count as venture capital in this case. They're an actual media company that already owned Paramount and recently acquired Warner.

Let's be honest, these people aren't going to magically find work at a competitor overnight. Some of them will be unemployed or underemployed for 18+ months depending on what they were doing at Skydance/Paramount/Warner before taking the buyout. And i can almost guarantee you that the RTO and buyouts are aimed at Warner people. Though who knows, maybe they're stupid enough to bounce folks from Paramount.

In any case that is a poor excuse for people not being able to negotiate over work conditions or pay.
