Came here for this. Imagine being so dead inside you feel perfectly fine, even proud of working for Chic-fil-A, lol

Won't someone please think of Verizon's margins?!

I don't think your estimations take into account the massive gains from AI denoising techniques such as https://youtu.be/YjjTPV2pXY0

You'd think, right?

If a tweet takes 30 seconds to conceive, type, and submit, Elon Musk has spent 45 hours of his life tweeting -- no way to estimate how much time spent reading, which is usually a h…

Well, the ice cream shop has Israeli clientele, while the hospitals mainly service people the Israelis have marked for death.

I love how this blatant neoliberal propaganda piece attempts to brand the gig economy and perpetual licensing of streaming content in lieu of CDs and other physical media ownership…

How generous of the company that made $10b in net profit last year and receives $6b+ of taxpayer funded subsidies every year to spend $400m to offer their workers the unheard of ab…

Ah, so you're telling me CEOs aren't individually greedy parasites, but that the entire system is to be blamed? Thanks for the advice, comrade Bloomberg!

So it's all on the end user to go to extra steps to avoid browser hijackers, and the company allowing the garbage ads is completely absolved of blame? >Complaining about it here wo…

It looks like garbage.

Thank you for your deep insight, detailed analysis and surfeit of evidence, Mr. Throwaway Account, sir!

You're the type of guy that looks for loopholes in board game rules and then acts all whiny when people call you an asshole for it. You're the type of the guy to start arguing sema…

then another question: why even bother building in a hard drive large enough to store hundreds of documents? certainly a circular buffer 1/1000th the capacity would be cheaper? thi…
