He's a narcissist. He believes his own hype and he thinks he's untouchable. That and they have about a billion dollars in debt coming due in a few days. Gotta keep that distraction going.

This thread consists of conservatives whining about CNN and others, vs others taking shots at the post and the author of the article. So yeah, bias. I'm not at all convinced this is a "both sides" issue. You can find errors i

> Do you want your car company maximizing revenue by not allowing you to buy anything but new parts of their manufacture installed by their techs? DRM for machinery is absolutely already a thing. What about shifting open source licenses

> But, I know that restricting building API compatible software is not a solution It's certainly a solution. It's just a really really bad one that makes lock in obscene and would probably strengthen amazon.

AGPL doesn't prevent AWS, AGPL forces AWS to be open with their changes. Which I think is better. You might not enable FOSS devs to make much off their work, but you at least force companies to contribute.

Rubs me the wrong way when a cloud computing company repackages open source code and starts making huge money without contributing. Rubs me the wrong way when these same companies can just re implement the API and cause massive hurt to an o

The alternative is you get no access to iOS. It's not a market, it's a walled garden. This shit is why I am so in favour of Epic's game store. 12% because they can. Finally challenging the absurdity of 30%.

If I was to list the companies I don't want involved in health care, those 3 would have to be pretty high up. Anyway, this article is paywalled.

The difference in that case if you have a union on your side to help ensure that you get a fair arbiter and a fair process. Without that, it's all on the company.

Not having forced arbitration doesn't mean you can't agree to arbitration voluntarily.

by anth_anm 8y ago
Companies shouldn't be allowed to have you sign away your constitutional rights like this.

I thought that SCOTUS already ruled that the federal arbitration act gives states little power in this?

If two companies of comparable size want to agree to arbitrate any disputes in a contact, that should be allowed. It saves massive amounts of time and money. The problem is the disparity between the parties involved when it's a company

because of shitty court rulings that make them legal. They also can't be banned at the state level.

Unions and their actions are collective employee action, I'm not sure what you're saying won't work?

That's not reasonable, hire a second person. Unless you're paying the person 24/7. Even then, it's absurd.

AK are harder to make at home because it's sheet metal. Requires welding and other harder work. Vs buying an 80% blank, drilling a few holes, and then routing.

It's legal to build your own guns. 3d printing isn't that sophisticated considering you can build a working AR with off the shelf parts, a drill press, and a hand router.

Some posted a video of a guy who was making this same sort of video, but about a 13 year old doing ASMR. That's actually creepy. I don't think we can stop pedos leering at kids online. In person you can tell them to get lost or ca

This is pretty much entirely wrong. Studios want what's "proven". It's why they will gladly feed in ML data to get shitty focus group type movies. They will then pour huge amounts of money in to try and get back even mor
