Beacon of reality in this post, not sure why you’re downvoted
I’m not even sure I oppose this timeline
I for one would be fine going back to the ini files of win 3.1
Yeah, it doesn’t matter what he says. He’ll decide later based on the direction the wind is blowing.
Yeah, if they are healthy companies they could snag some market share from one of Google’s products.
Easier to kill them early.
Wish the media would just start to ignore these, but instead they have to be there in case he says something incredibly FUBAR in which case they’ll make a lot of money by sharing the news first.
Whack-a-mole. Once banned, a scammer will just sign up with someone else’s ID.
I mean, that’s kinda what they are pros at already, right?
This poster asked some questions in good faith, I don’t understand the downvotes when there’s a legitimate contribution to the conversation because that stifles other contributions.
Coming from an entrepreneurial background, I tend to lean towards the advantages of allowing high economic growth incentives for the people who invent or improve on things in the world. I think this is the best incentive structure ever conceived for promoting advancements.
But more and more I realize that as a society we need stronger antitrust controls to keep the behemoths from becoming modern day fiefdoms.
If a company corners a market, it should be pushed into divesting so that it doesn’t become a black hole and vacuum up everything around it, which inevitably leads to bad outcomes.
This kind of a policy could serve to reboot the investors so they have to go back and invest in something new or competitive again, rather than horde it.
Tribalism
It looks like Joe pulled a fairly crafty move here.
He held on long as possible, skated through the primaries as incumbents typically do, let Donnie burn up his warchest and tire himself out on all of his old guy quips.
Then with this switcheroo, Biden singlehandedly decided the next nominee and launched her off with more momentum than nearly any candidate ever gets.
Joe rides off into the sunset with his aviators and Kamala comes out kicking ass and chewing bubble gum on her first day with an extra $100m and poor Donnie hasn’t a clue what hit him (again).
Some double entendre there. Love it.
Civics, politics, and world history classes. Is nobody taking these anymore? Sheesh.
There was that moment it time when he was the underdog doing cool stuff. It seemed like he couldn’t screw up, because his companies were hitting the ball out of the park one after the other.
Then the pedo guy debacle taught us who he really is.
And this, kids, is why nobody can say sorry for anything. It will be used against you in court.
An exceptionally well trained AI customer service has the potential to be amazing.
I only call or try to chat/email with customer service if something has gone way wrong - like outside the typical customer service capability of assistance.
If an AI can realize that my problem is human worthy and escalate it faster, that would save me time in the chat queue talking with someone who barely knows my native language.
Alas, AIs will be poorly trained, so the bad-english CS reps will still be right behind the AI interface waiting for me.
When I was young I remember that banks often had large drive-thrus with pneumatic tube systems at each car stall.
There would only be one teller but they could serve quite a few lanes.
If you wanted a cash withdrawal, you might put your ID and your withdrawal slip in the tube, and a few minutes later it would come back with cash in it.
It was pretty rad. But ATMs seem like a better bet overall.
There’s a pretty good chance that every employee facing this offer is in a position where Dell sees them as replaceable. They want people who follow orders and not much more, so if you want to look at it through that filter Dell got what they wanted.
Unless somebody over there at the top is crazy, Dell would have had individual deals with the true innovators, decision makers, movers and shakers internally who are viewed as top tier and irreplaceable.
Huh, you’re right. I didn’t know about that. From Wikipedia:
Wonder if it microwaves your balls when it’s in your pocket too.
Either way we can dream of a future where we never have to plug in to charge again.
