I guess what I mean is, why was this posted as “News”?

I thought we knew that already, given their close history.

If Rump thinks Musk knows the bill better than anyone, it would make sense that he knows how terrible it is.

If Musk truly hasn’t seen it at all, then his opinion of it isn’t worth much.

Basically they’re both arguing against their own positions.

I was one of the 300,000. It worked great!
Glad to see it won’t entirely disappear.

I didn’t read the article. But if I was making this movie.
The raccoons would’ve sacrificed the goat to the baby. And the parents would be imprisoned in the basement, fearing they’d be next.

Harvard saying they wouldn’t comply with Trump and fight it in court was great.

If they really wanted to do “The Right Thing”, they have the billions to keep these projects funded for several years while they fight. But I guess that’s too much to ask.

Both parties are in the pocket of the ownership class.
The Democrats seriously would rather see the republic fall to a pro corpo dictatorship, than do anything to address wealth inequality.

Just days ago didn’t he lament how terrible autism is, how destructive it is to whole families? Now he wants to take support away from those families? Being wrong is one thing, this is self contradictory nonsense.

The headline seems to imply something wrong is happening.

The options they got when hired finally matured, now they can sell them. With the share price cratering for things they can’t control (Musk being a dick) who wouldn’t just cash out? It’s the only thing worth doing in that situation.

He’s in a different room than we are.

That’s not really at issue here.
This isn’t the government deciding what art is objectionable, and arresting those who play music they don’t like. This is a private company deciding what it wants to host in it’s library, that it curates, it pays license fees for, and sells subscriptions too. Ye or any Nazi absolutely has the right to make and sell any music they want. They however don’t have the right to force another company to sell their music for them.

Most negotiations are based on vibes.
It’s why I hate (and often refuse) to negotiate.

It surprising how much push back, and how many down votes I got from people here, when I said that more than a year ago.
I’m glad now in hind sight it’s apparently obvious to everyone.

In a way they are.
You see, the weather radar stations collect data.
Data used in the manufacture of… Knowledge Bombs

They got shit for being stupid and using a public FOSS app that skirts the law.

It makes a kind of sense they would switch to something worse, because of the aforementioned stupid part.

This is newsworthy because Trump just obliterated half of all money in Hollywood.

Did he? I thought this was something he just said. Did he sign an executive order or take any action to make it happen?

He says shit all the time, and actually tries to do less than 5% of it.

Sure I’ll accept I got all the details wrong. That doesn’t really matter to my point.
My point is that this is another example of him saying something so stupid, that it shouldn’t get any media coverage.

Then I think we have different ideas of what “Fight Back” means, and are talking past each other.

Another “Trump said” that should be ignored.

How would this even work? Tariffs function by holding the physical items in customs, until the tax is paid. But a licensing deal on a digital good, that can be transfered undetected over the internet, is impossible to teriff. You could tax it other ways, but 100% of what. The distribution license? The copyright?

I guarantee he hasn’t thought about any of this, and as such this mindless utterance a can be safely ignored.

But using those words you’d have to, to establish that it isn’t actually the father who was shot, but the 18 year old.

The terrible use commas comes from the terrible word choice. Rewriting the entire sentence would be the best option.
