People can believe Tesla is worth a huge premium but are skeptical of the price of bitcoin, as if the financial system isn’t all make believe.

Great news.

His wealth isn’t real, its Tesla stock. Hence why he bought twitter.

Who did Zuck stomp on?

Gitlab Id say. It even works as a OAuth server. The docker container is very easy to setup.

On X86 only I think.

Now we can export our chip production to China as well, just as we did all the other high paid union jobs.

Like what, some kind of parenting?

I like a BeOS style vertical taskbar with window names. Neither of them do it well.

Not to mention DRM. They want to own your computer and prevent any kind of modification so that movie producers give them money.

Which itself is a gimmick, they’ve just made the gates taller, electron leakage would happen otherwise.

Stronghold Defense mod is amazing. It’s basically a base defense game against hundreds of enemies parading towards you, with custom weapons and power ups.

Oh thats pretty neat. I know Cosmos Cloud had some interesting functionality similar to that, with Oauth support for everything. Though I’ve not tried it.

Flat fees for breaking the law are only a tax on the poor. If money can buy you privilege then you live in an oligarchy.

I have a birth bath I don’t ever replace the water in. Its like a shrub to me.

China produces the bulk of rare earths the US uses for things like military production, which puts the US as dependent on China as Canada is dependent on the US. The reality is absurd no matter which way things go.

Europe is doing carbon border adjustments to attempt to do something similar if I’m not mistaken, though its still early stages.

The reason Trumps idea appeals to people for those unaware is that free trade destroyed a lot of union jobs, which were outsourced to emerging markets. After the industrial revolution unions fought for worker rights and salaries, and they were then shipped away to places that didnt have those rights, and they want to see a reversal of this.

Not sure if its right or wrong, but you cant fault them for holding out hope, its actually a left wing ideal I would say, large government protectionism interfering in the free market. Saying that all factory jobs are bad is a silly retort, there are many factory jobs in the US already that people are happy to have; even ASML making advanced semiconductor fabs is a “factory job”.

Its boring. You open a web browser or Steam, you do a thing, you go to sleep.

The US has never had free trade, look at the patent system they force other countries to abide by, whose length and terms are dictated by the US.

This is just a continuation of the same. Apple even had a patent on rounded corners on rectangles.
