The sheer amount of money being removed by the 1 percent is regoddamndiculous. It’s something like 45 trillion dollars since wages diverged from productivity in 1975.

It would require Apple to accept a dollar less in profit.

In this case there was no real issue. He was trying to get free advertising out of the court. But also, we’ve had animated avatars and text to voice for over a decade now. This isn’t an AI use case.

Thanks I hate it.

In other news politicians continue to be confused as to why people are angry…

Well shit. Time to rip my own files because their migration stuff is going to be all Microsoft proprietary.

That’s not how human behavior works…

Someone thinks they’re very clever and they aren’t.

The guy lives and committed his crime on the other side of the ocean in a context which does not exist in this country.

The word “tenement” has a negative connotation specifically because of the UK’s treatment of the working poor. The Grenfell Tower was only 8 years ago. You guys might not have the health insurance issue we have but you certainly have the “Parasite class killing and causing suffering for monetary gain” problem that is the root cause of both issues.

That reminds me of this comic strip…

There’s a similar thing in the US but many landlords don’t accept it.

The coffee grounds.

Because of course it is. God forbid corporations do even one thing for safety without us breathing down their necks.

You…

You mean that in a good way right?

RIGHT!?!

Yes that’s the point. By purposefully hosting the virus they are endangering everyone who isn’t protected because it’s not a regional thing. It spreads on planes and in tourist areas. Which is why there’s a case from LAX in California now.

Furthermore the more they willfully host it, the more it mutates and risks breaking the containment we do have on it.

We’re all interconnected. Shitty people in Texas can kill us all.

There’s nothing stopping them from hosting a massive instance. But people aren’t forced to move there to interact with them.

Thank you.

2003 called. It wants it’s bingo space back.

They’re all state actors these days because all the ones that didn’t hook up with a country for protection either got their doors kicked in at 3 in the morning; or they kept to small enough operations to not be a real bother. I guess one of them could have forgotten the 2010’s, but I doubt it. They tend to be smarter than other criminals.

Best case? Some grey hat found a hole in security for Internet connected cameras and is just having fun. Worst case? Training runs by a state actor.

Yup. They have the exchange operators on record saying they actively trade against their customers. It’s a club and if you’re not in it you don’t get to win.
