Go fuck yourself. And enjoy it when you need medical care, and your insurance company refuses you and then drops you.

I also do not approve of my tax dollars being wasted on scum like you.

My last day job, before I retired, was as sr. Linux admin at the NIH for t0 years. Worked for a contractor. Did the *same* job those 10 years. Looked it up, had about the same salary and benefits that a fed would. Oh, but because privatize, our tax dollars was paying for a fed to waste their time managing the contracts. And for my corporate manager to be paid. And her corporate manager to be paid. And for the company to make a very good profit.

Management won't tell the customerr, because they've agreed in insanely idiotic timeframes, and unachievable milestones.

I was employee 186, IIRC, of the startup division of Ameritech that was going to be your long distance company, in the mid-nineties.

Gravity waves are undetectable, even in theiry? So, we haven't been detecting gravity waves for what, 11 years? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Invest now, before you miss your chance to lose everything!

...would anyone want a 32" screen on their FRIDGE? Are they going to sit in the kitchen and stare at it?

And having it, and not expecting MBAs to demand ads...

Retired programmer, sr. Linux sysadmin. I have NO "smart home" devices. I get enough ads on my computer.

Bzzt, thank yuo for playing. You have just shamed your family for generations to come. You do not win a year's supply of Rice-a-roni....

Ignoring the two acs below - they're both assholes who have no clue, and if they're not trolls from Russia or elsewhere, are posting from their basements.

No, cusco, it's not "business ethics". It *was* the MBAs, Friedmanites all, who decided that ROI was, to paraphrase Lombardi, "ROI isn't everything, it's the only thing." Products and services? No, ROI. And ROI must be this quarter. Destroy unions, ship jobs overseas to semi-slave labor? ROI!

But NOT A SINGLE INVESTIGATION that I've read of on the death threats to judges who rule with the law, not Trump.

An "erotic chat" mode would take jobs away from women (mostly older women) who staff all those "talk to a hot babe" phone lines.

Laugh, right. So, would you hire an older woman who'd been a "tradwife" after her asshole husband dumped her for a younger trophy? What job-oriented skills would she have?

And yes, a let friend of mine did that for a while, many years ago.

Given that what I've read, he actually *cares* about the BOOKS.

My issue is all the pics we see of what's supposed to be Tom Bombadil... um, er, are they all color blind? "Old Tom Bombadil, bright blue his coat, and his boots are yellow."

Can we create some science-based anti-morons, and transport them to DC?

People are using Sora to strip classmates and co-workers naked, child porn, and, oh, yes, deepfakes of political opponents.

Since you haven't even begun to think about it, let me cut to the chase: it's STUPID, in space, to have a ship from Earth to the Moon. Do you fly to another city, and have the jetliner land at your hotel downtown?

*SPACE*ships should go from station to station, and shuttles/landers from planet to station.

...that they shareholders will be able to replace him with the chatbot, and not have to pay his salary?

Gee, you sound just like the American car dealers claiming no one was interested in Toyota's first hybrd (which was why Toyota dealers couldn't keep them in stock, the Prius sold so fast).

I *just* got a used hybrid minivan last year. I *could* have gotten one in '13, the last time I bought a vehicle... but hybrid minivans were *only* available in Europe, because of regulatory capture of the US gov't by the oil industry.

Right now, I'm very happy - *all* the local driving we do is on electric. I filled the tank over a month ago, and it's not quite down to three-quarters. Enjoy paying however much it is per gallon.
