    That, and the idea that humans are now programmable and the concept of free will is over. He and his son-of-a-Nazi mentor, Klaus Schwab, want to turn you into the Borg. Literally. …

    There's really very little difference between far left and far right. They're both radical extremes that allow no diversity of thought and that demand unquestioning allegiance to t…

    The problem with your example is that 1] actually happened. 2] is a media/political fabrication being proven in a court of law at this very moment. And to the point of this article…

    I have to seriously ask: Is this actually a surprise to anyone?

    Don't rule out another possibility. The true magnitude of the bot problem is exposed in court. Twitter is exposed for not only lying to Musk, they're also now in trouble for lying …

    If Twitter has nothing to hide, then why not give him the complete access he wants? Why should Musk just take Twitter's word? Musk never intended to buy Twitter. The objective was …

    On the other hand, if you're a ballot trafficker, this is good news for you and the non-profits and NGOs abetting you.

    This is a pretty good example - now just apply it to the actual problem. The amount of currency in circulation. Inflation isn't about the cost of goods or services actually costing…

    "Google still gives decent results for many other categories, especially when it comes to factual information." That is highly questionable and subjective.

    I think it's just more political correctness gone wild. The vast majority of Spanish speakers in America are from Mexico but it somehow became derogatory to refer to them as "Mexic…

    This is very true and I think people forget that they have the support of almost all mainstream media. This gives the very false impression that they (and their ideologies) represe…

    I'm not sure how no one has figured out that the long-term goal of the Democrats is to eradicate the middle class entirely. To be fair, it's not a Democrat or Republican thing at a…

    Phones have GPS. In states where texting and driving is banned, why isn't there some way to program the phone so that it simply doesn't function if it detects a speed of over 5-10 …

    That's the attitude of most everyone, and hence the reason it won't change. But IF.. (just if) a few hundred million people decided to ditch Chrome and Google's "services" (data co…

    Unless they believe they can get away with it. Let's not be naive. The Big Brother agenda of Google didn't happen in a vacuum. They have government support and protection from some…

    I'm excited by the idea but I have to agree with an analysis by Frooglesim: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbTSy409BjY ). Microsoft has closed down their Flight Simulation franc…

    I think it was a racing game, not a flight simulator. I used to know how to access that.. but it was 12-15 years ago.

    I hope it's not too "video-gamey". That was the downfall of "MS Flight". It was highly disappointing to hard-core simmers who had come to expect realistic flight conditions, routes…

    I'm a very good musician and have never thought about it exactly that way before but I have to say, that's a very good explanation and way of thinking about it. I think it's a bit …
