How is the 30% tax different than other platforms? Further, how much do you think should this be (20%? 10%? 5%?) and if zero, why? Finally, do you believe Apple should be compensated for the services and marketplace that they are offering,

Two points: 1. Chat GPT has no awareness of anything 2. Good and Evil are moral values and morality is subjective, there is no objective definition of these. Religion tried to define them and look how that turned out.

Right, people keep using Uber because it solves a real problem for them and provides convenience in their life. If someone creates the same or better service at a more reasonable price, the consumers will switch. There is no vendor lock-in

So it turns out dismantling an entire nation's nuclear infrastructure just requires a bit of coordination with foreign intelligence and a couple of well placed airstrikes. Who knew it was that simple? No protracted negotiations, no int

As an Iranian, I want it clear: the Islamic Republic has destroyed Iran. For 46 years, they held our country hostage, suppressing us, dictating what we can wear, say, or believe, while chanting death to the West and chasing nuclear power. T
