Hope they’re happy with their $10 payout.

I only took part of one class action lawsuit and it was against Facebook. I still look back on that and feel a little regretful. I’m only one dude so I can’t possibly hope to take on Facebook solely in a court environment. I got $14 payout. But in doing so, means I can’t ever legally take action against them anyways.

So, don’t settle for this. Keep Google accountable.

I don’t think anyone should replace Linus Torvalds.

As is the essence of open source, Linux as a whole should fall to the community. The problem though is, there will come a point of disagreements with how things could go.

So while I hate the solution I’ve been given by my management in how to handle these things. You’re going to have to go to the police on this one. There is actually someone who is like a residential officer of some kind, someone who isn’t the one that has to be dealing with more serious crimes other officers have to. I have a card to one of these people.

You’re going to have to build up a case against this person for noise. Record, document, report. Get a few police reports, bring all of this to management and make it so that they can’t ignore it simply.

However, you’ve complicated this because you’ve retaliated. You’ve given this guy something on the table to use against you and now it’s going to be a matter of constructing a timeline and going to have to be a bit more thorough so people can figure out what started first and who started when. But I’m just saying, he has something now against you for the music so you better be up to a lot of bickering and whatnot.

This could be my next phone.

But, but, though. Will the OS be non-proprietary? Will I be able to actually use all the apps I would ideally want? Because, much as I love my Samsung Galaxy, I really do wish I could remove a lot of its bloatware off the phone that I know I won’t ever use.

Ahhh, that’s the catch. Now I don’t want one.

I’m fine on DDR4. DDR5 feels to me, something I’ll get into in like 5 - 10 years from now. This is from someone who has sat on DDR2 and DDR3 machines for extended periods of time. If they’re still doing the job I want them to, no complaints.

There were no individual that invented capitalism. However, the closest individual that likely is the perpetrator to modern stage capitalism is a scottish philosopher Adam Smith.

So, I would say him.

I’d also include Henry Ford, who pushed for the idea of 40 hour work weeks and 5 days a week.

9/11

I would’ve wanted to see what America today would become if that hadn’t happened. America had built up a lot of its reputation off the back of WW2 and was seen still as a good ally. George W Bush would not have become president for a second term because of how bad he was in office. American citizens would not be subjected to governmental survelliance to the extent it was after 9/11. And we wouldn’t have a recession that cratered the economy.

6th, 7th and 8th grade. I felt that they were the worst because, everything I remembered that was built up from the previous grades just fell apart. I was involved with an unhealthy friend circle and didn’t really care for it, I lost the friends I actually cared for prior to this circle. Nothing felt that innocent and true anymore.

Then I would say Junior and Senior years of high school. I felt they were a great contrast to the more colorful freshman and sophomore years I had. I was starting to have feelings about how directionless I really was and how I felt I was going to be very lost after it is all over. I was also grasping to the fact that I may not have all of the friends I’ve acquired throughout my time in high school, something that wouldn’t come true until about 18 years later where all but a few are just gone.

“social permission”?

Society didn’t even permit you and others to spread AI onto everyone to begin with.

I think people just like their logos and brand first and music last except ‘Touch of Grey’.

They only seem to release music if they think it’ll do nothing but make major success through radio and appease record labels.

See their song ‘Thunder’.

Agreed.

I mean, I felt like AC/DC focused more on brand recognition when Brian Johnson took over after Bon Scott died. Their music were aiming for radio appeal, not that no musician should because it means being successful, but it almost was formulaic. Thunderstruck for example, became a staple for sports soundtracks and stadium like events.

And they’re a victim of their own success as you’ve talked here, where someone who didn’t grow up with the band, will only focus on the popular songs. Despite them having grown up with at least a couple albums that AC/DC did release, like their last album ‘Power Up’ was in 2020. It’s the same deal with Nirvana, always wearing that double-X smiley shirt or having the poster and only saying they cared about Nevermind. The same for Guns 'N Roses where it’s always both of the Appetite for Destruction albums and songs like Welcome to the Jungle and November Rain.

I think it honestly just speaks about a fan’s depth as to how much they like bands. An actual fan likes a band and addresses both flaw and success. A casual fan only likes what was popular and nothing else for cheap nods.

Nn…no. Just because people are going to be forced to choose China, doesn’t make them good. You should be good based on providing the best and with how China recently handled GPUs, I’m remaining skeptical in their practices.

Thanks.

I don’t really know why it is so hard for people to post things like this in the beginning. It’s just a way to annoy us because they should know we all don’t intend to pay some subscription to read news.

Besides the paywall.

It doesn’t sound to me that this is making Sony go away from a market, it just sounds like they’ll still be involved.

Why do I have a feeling they’re going to make it optional anyways?
