“Well good news folks, problem solved. You need to be a person to be a pedophile and Grok isn’t a person. Therefore Grok can’t be found liable for anything it does. Therefore it’s safe and won’t risk me being litigated. Therefore it’s safe as is for kids. I don’t know why everyone got so upset.” Says Elon Musk. /S but also not/s.
Also jury nullification. Doesn’t matter if the verdict the jury delivers is guilty or innocent, so long as the jury says one thing and thinks another it’s jury nullification.
Yeah but Conservatives and particularly Republicans are great at spreading a message. It’s more important that people believe that Conservatives and Republicans are good stewards of the economy than actually being good stewards. The economy will ebb and flow regardless of what anyone does, so why do anything about it when you can just take credit for the highlights.
And yet Democrats will still manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. I am expect them to lose seats in the election.
I’ll agree with you that Taylor Swift is not a billionaire of biggest concern. It’s not black and white, it’s a scale of grey. That said, anyone with over a billion UD dollars in personal and private wealth is in the you shouldn’t have that much money club. Full stop. That’s black and white. The grey comes in with how much over are you and what did you do to get it. Taylor Swift is not like Elon Musk, Sam Altman, or Peter Thiel, but she does have too much money and probably doesn’t do enough to encourage new talent who would be her competition. She’s a capitalist, just not the worst kind.
Ice cold!
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, okay now ladies. Now we gon’ break this thing down in just a few seconds
Add on all the bullshit they hide in their contracts to cover liability. Fuck Disney saying that their customers can’t sue them because they paid for a Disney Plus account. Should be legal but apparently it is.
She literally can’t, ICE agents are federal agents which means they have civil immunity from lawsuits that are a direct result of their duties. Unless they’re doing something that a reasonable person would understand to be a breach of the law. That said the federal courts seem to use Donald Trump’s circumstantial definition of a reasonable person and only his. So fat chance there’s a legal solution to this.
And now we have arrived at the tragedy of the commons. Why should anyone care about common interests over themselves?
I worked retail in those days, it was crazy. It was common for a few fights to break out. One time I remember pulling out a new skid of Christmas trees and I didn’t even get to the main isle before customers mobbed the skid. My manager was so pissed off at me for not stopping them but how can one person stop dozens of people without any help. Black Friday was gross and BFCM is no better.
Unfortunately those are the most expensive parts right now because they both require memory chips. Perhaps consider buying used, might be tough to find DDR5 DIMMs but used GPUs are plentiful.
Perhaps no, but anyone who has watched a loved one develop dementia knows that dementia patients begin saying the most uncouth things. It’s like the filter we all have in our heads to stop us from saying the worst stuff is one of the first things to diminish as dementia takes hold. If he had dementia things like this happen more often. Thing is it’s impossible to tell with Trump cause he never had a filter to begin with.
Because if they don’t he’ll sue them for being very unfair, and then he’ll get the stadium named after him and a $300 million dollar cheque. He owns the judicial branch and unlike every other president before him he is willing to use it as a tool for his petty revenge. Turns out that every other president actually believed in a higher power then themselves, be it God or country. Donald doesn’t believe in anything.
Six foot! Seven foot! Eight foot bunch! Daylight come and me wan go home.
You’re right but you’re ignoring everything the other person said. Go back 25+ years and there was a mono-pop-culture. You’d go to work after the latest episode of Twin Peaks and just discussed it. Those conversations weren’t preface with “Spoiler warning.” Either you saw it or yo didn’t. It was a cultural touch stone that most people would at the very least know of, but probably was as engaged with as you were.
Sure, Japanese people weren’t watching the same thing as Americans, or South Afrikans and The Brits weren’t consuming the same things. It was still a lot more homogeneous culture back then. Not saying now is better than then or anything, just that it was very different.
By that day the constitution will just be another piece of paper he wipes his ass with. Now is the easiest time to resist and stop that future, not once it’s already happened.
That’s what happens when the Supreme Court decides that when the president does it, it’s not illegal. He does what he wants because the Republican justices decided that The President is above the law. There literally isn’t any legal way for a judge to enforce their orders over Trump.
Tell that to the eternal accountants. -400 points for buying a tomato. No wonder we’re all going to the bad place.
Embedded contract work. A lot of places have seen the benefits of keeping a small labor pool and expanding capacity with contract workers only when needed. It’s a lot cheaper to contract a person to work for a year and have them figure out their vacation and benefits than it is to hire an employee you need to keep on. You can terminate the contract at anytime, no severance pay. They need to figure out coverage for their vacation and if they can’t it’s their problem. Same with them being sick, the contract says they’ll find someone to fill that position. If they get injured it doesn’t reflect on your insurance. Plus they need the job so they stay on year to year. You can even contract them for less the next year, can’t do that to an employee.
