You’re assuming these people are doing something useful, they could be dealing with Microslop licensing as their full time job. Which is definitely a full time job, its just not useful work in the broader sense.

For painting?

Though an install is like 8gb now, instead of 700mb.

Ah that makes sense.

Is Microsoft just another name for Microslop?

Fake money for criminals is speaking of USD here?

Just because it grows at 8% doesnt mean its fake, its also fake because the Fed is a corrupt institution that stopped caring about measuring real inflation a long time ago.

Pcloud has lifetime deals with encryption.

I’ve had it for a very long time and paid once long ago. It works on Linux as well.

A tale as old as time. We all need to develop some bone spurs.

They arent really loopholes though are they, Musk for instance is taking a risk to avoid taxes, and someone else with a low time preference is benefiting by accruing interest by lending him money.

They still pay taxes in the end, and it will be far higher than it would be if we plucked the fruit of their labor now. Except the IRA thing but that cant be terribly common, and again Thiel took a massive risk by not diversifying. But sure go ahead and write a law to take a chunk of that unicorn whenever it is he decided to realize it, it will fund a few hours of government spending.

I did post this Bernie Sanders videos once:

Because I like unions, low housing prices, and an effective minimum wage that isn’t eroded or bypassed by illegal workers.

Youre a nazi. Fuck nazis.

There I did it. Hopefully a nazi comes to my trap.

The nazis are the ones defending a non-sequitur?

I really dont get it. Am I the nazi in this joke?

Its gone I think.

When would I use Mysql over postgres?

I’m excited because I think AI will break down and erode proprietary file formats, for ultimate portability between different software providers. That for me is a game changer in how software is used, and opens up real competition and innovation. Thats not anything as grand as the AGI these founders keep vaporwaring, but I think it will still be substantial.
