That's not how any of that work - monopolies are fine, what gets regulated is anti competitive monopolistic behavior. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherman_Antitrust_Act

But you do, for the arguments mentioned. Native iMessage client with native iMessage functionality versus SMS with whatever garbage implementation your carrier decided to go with.

So mostly android users doing all sorts of mental gymnastics to justify some company selling stealing compute for two bucks a month.

I've yet to receive a single piece of spam coming from an iMessage account.

Ah yes, they should absolutely go with these types of sovereign citizen legal arguments.

Market failure created by policy made by people that don't have a grasp on economics -> more policy by the same people that continues to ignore the economics driving the market failure. Price cap is a synonym for shortage

I think you're missing the forest for the trees - the actual premise behind this idiocy is to try to compel landlord to rent out the vacant units when it's demonstrably uneconomical * for them to do so. The stated reasons (health

I'm not so sure B&O brand strategy is going for poor-people-signaling-wealth demographic - think LV or Gucci printed luggage boarding a Spirit flight. You need a mass market brand-recognition and the product has to be pretty ostent

Taking a sentence and doubling the world count with folksy-sounding adjectives does not actually make the prose more "literary". It's just bad copy...

Not sure about GPT, but it's hella overwrought - it's like someone took the investigation PDF and tried to make the cheesiest Lifetime movie out of it. Far too many superfluous adjectives and embellishments; barely readable IMO. e

Ohh can't wait for the inevitable next step of dropping the "web" part of web assembly and doing, ya know, native fat clients again.

US is so rich that it voluntarily subsidized pharma R&D for the rest of the world. Not a new thing.

Not sure why the downvotes - this definitely seems to be a coordinated effort, rather than one off brand-management exercise by IBM, but to what end I have no idea. Evidently Media Matters is somehow inciting this?

I like how reducing subsidies is somehow a blow against the premise.

by pxmpxm 3y ago
Maybe instead of going full-feels, you should pause and contemplate why those sorts of regulations and laws exist. I would imagine it relates to the premise that public spaces are supposed to be a benefit to all, which doesn't happen i

I must be the only one that can't stand the laugh track equivalent they keep pushing into their launch videos. Just reeks of tacky marketing.

Huh? There is a ton of precedent for this - as a matter of fact Ford was chasing down famous people and auction houses for being in breach of the GT sales contract.

Any money transfer mechanism where the sender has recourse means the transfer agent is looking at a liability - both by having to have a whole dispute department like any credit card processor and/or paypal and an actual dollar liabili

RIP free money transfer is what that means - the service can't be both free and liable for people falling for scams.

There is no reality where that 8gig heap machine will outperform a 64gig heap machine in any objective measure. I'm sure you will hedge with your statement with something like "well it feeels faster" or some such nonsense.

I suspect the sole purpose of ideas like wealth tax is to point out undiscerning left leaning voters. You know, the people whose mental model of "the rich" comes from scrooge mcduck - wealth being mostly stored in gold coins that
