Then why include it in a lambaste of Stallman? All it does is detract from anyone who knows the full quote and context of Stallman's statement.

Not only that, but a lot of British films will make british-only casting decisions, eg the Harry Potter series. I've never heard of a major American film making that choice, and it would probably be blasted as xenophobic if it did.

Was any previously unknown info about Google leaked in the memo, that only an insider could know? If not, then why does it even matter that a googler wrote it? If "Anonymous" wrote the doc and uploaded it to pastebin, would you le

$100 is a lot to pay for streaming services. And to list prices over 20 years is also strange. Netflix can cost $6.99/mo. Is it worth $6.99/mo, or $83.88/year? I don't know, maybe, but it is certainly more realistic than

With FTX, also don't forget that they sponsored the baseball World Series. Go back and look at any clip from the 2022 World Series and the umps are all wearing "FTX" emblazoned on their chest.

A simple equation but no one actually operates that way. Except for maybe auto manufacturers from late-90s books-turned-movies starring Brad Pitt and Edward Norton. Most variables are impossible to accurately predict. e.g. "Cost/p

Trains are really unpredictable. Even in the middle of a forest two rails can appear out of nowhere, and a 1.5-mile fully loaded coal drag, heading east out of the low-sulfur mines of the PRB, will be right on your ass the next moment.

There's also the possibility that this information is just made up by the leaker in an attempt to look better for a coming lawsuit. A possibility: analyst941 and the Apple employee are the same person. They leaked for whatever reason.

If, say, Sundar was only offered a $100M package instead of a $226M package, where would he go that would pay him more than $100M? There's no other person out there who would do the job for $100M? An issue would be that Sundar is plugg
