  1. I was thinking it was due to Google being evil and tracking everyone and selling everyones data. Working for the Pentagon is probably the least evil thing that Google is doing.

  2. I'm not sure what being white and male have to do with it. Recruiters don't care either. As long as they fill their seat and get their $10k they are happy.

  3. ...for every one person like that there are a thousand who would like to work for Google.

    A better question is where did the clever STORIES go? Now it is all drivel about "AI", new $1000 phones, smart speakers, some new scam that Musk is doing, or just things about the current administration someone doesn't like.

    Price isn't an issue because most people just break the cost into monthly payments. They aren't handing over $1000 cash for a $100 manufactured device so it isn't real money. And no one cares about freedom. The last 10 years of computing should have told you that.

  6. I disagree. Working together is always better. It doesn't mean you don't try new things.

  7. Working together is always better.

  8. Shirley there is a torrent that contains all the emulation files for these early consoles. It can't be that big.

  9. It is really amazing all the research they are able to do there. I would have thought the humidity and rain would wreak havoc with computers. Maybe it helps there is no Internet access as well, so they aren't distracted by social media and can focus on AI research.

  10. Because Musk is too busy launching military and spy satellites into LEO. Science isn't profitable enough.

  11. Um, Lukaku is hardly obscure. He is one of the top 20 currently playing soccer players. In terms of sports he is 100x more famous than any baseball player or American football player.

    Eventually all software will be rented and media will be streamed to approved devices. Only approved devices will be allowed to connect to the Internet.

    No way.

    I am really surprised that you can identify faces using a computer system. We are truly living in the future.

    Because the sun shines brighter on hot days? I didn't know that.

    Because they need to pump more river water to cool the plants since the temperature is higher and there is a limit to the volume of water they are allowed to pump out.

  17. Um, not a troll. He gives to the GOP. Buying "Congress critters" so you can "keep a shitload of money" is not good. Fucking pathetic fanboys.

  18. You are just an obnoxious corporatist. Just don't pretend you are "green" or saving planet Earth. There are real humans working on doing that. Musk isn't one of them.

  19. I have a 80% confidence that Tesla will fail under its massive debt eventually and get bought out. But enjoy your corporate money. I am sure it will be useful on Mars when you and Bruce arrive to the promised land.

  20. No, I would never take that risk. I don't know if Tesla is going to fail or not. It could survive with more funding, or it could become profitable, or it collapse under its massive debt (most likely). I would never go long or short on it based on what I know. My point is people like you DON'T KNOW EITHER. But you are a fanboy, and keep posting Tesla stories and hyping the stock and talking in minute detail about Tesla (remember how many robots of which type they were going to add to production line X?). My main point is that you shouldn't be investing in Tesla, and impressionable people shouldn't listen to you and risk their money either. You might have gotten lucky with Tesla, but that is pure luck, you weren't investing. My guess is you haven't sold a single share which means you have ZERO profit, because there are no dividends. You are just a person who thinks Musk is going to take us all to Mars and lead us to the promised land. Ridiculous. You should find a better hobby than being a corporate cheerleader. Maybe join the Sierra Club or Greenpeace if you are interested in actually helping.

  21. No, I have been WARNING people like you that you SHOULDN'T INVEST in individual stocks, especially things like Tesla. The risk to reward is way too high. In addition, I am trying to make the point that Tesla is NOT a "green" company. They make tech toys for the 1%. If you are looking to invest "green", Tesla is not a good investment.

    And I was wrong: I am "long" Tesla because some of the mutual funds I own have Tesla positions. It makes no difference to any of my points. There is nothing like trying to get through to brainwashed cultists. Plus I think Musk is a scumbag personally, but that is another matter.

  22. Actually I should take that statement back: I AM invested in Tesla via some mutual funds I own. It makes no difference. I don't sit around and defend mega corporations just because I own a fractional part. Completely nuts.

  23. I think giving money to the GOP (which is a disgusting organization) is a big deal. You fanboys can rationalize anything, but I can't side with a guy who gives money to the very people who are helping to destroy this country.

  24. Yes. That is what I said. He donates to the GOP. I am not sure why you are talking about the Sierra Club or Democrats. He donates to the GOP. As for paying for "access" to politicians: that is a pretty scummy thing to do. I am surprised a person like you are on board with it, but I guess fanboys can rationalize anything.

  25. I am not invested in Tesla at all. You fanboys are crazy. I wouldn't touch Tesla stock. I have no idea if it is going to go up or down. I just know you are a fanboy. You might as well come out and admit it. Just say: "I think Musk is a genius who will be taking us all to Mars and away from the common people". Just admit it so we can all have a good laugh and move on.
