Giving a for-profit corporation direct access to your brain sounds like a great idea with no downsides whatsoever. I love the thought of worrying about my brain implant having a glitch or facing planned obsolescence.
Edit: OH God I actually read the article and this thing connects to exterior devices. Imagine your brain literally being hacked.
To be specific, this is a pilot program, with the full launch coming later.
Everyone knows pro wrestling is all staged performances but I’ve never heard that said of boxing. As far as I know those are real.
Find a way to work a small amount of exercise into your daily routine. Walk places instead of driving, do some jumping jacks in the morning or before bed, something simple that you can get yourself to do without much stress or planning. If you do it consistently, even 10-20 minutes of exercise a day can make a big difference in the long run.
We have it the same as you. I never really gave it any thought.
Yup, Spiritfarer is my answer too. I played up through the first person to pass on and then couldn’t keep going.
Nothing to see here, folks, just Elon Musk, business genius at work.
Technically the vegan thing is possible if someone figures out a way to make lab-grown meat work. Definitely more realistic than a non-violent Nazi.
That’s very shocking. All of Elon’s other companies have such a strong reputation for reliable engineering. /s
I’ve been following Professor Phillips Obrien for analysis on this subject, and he largely shares your opinion.
He thinks that if the US really wanted Ukraine to win the administration would have been providing much more long-range weapons, and that they still could. Ukraine can still win, but it depends on their allies actually helping them do that.
Loria is a game from 2018 that is very obviously inspired by Warcraft 2. I remember enjoying my playthrough.
Wait, they actually made that thing? I assumed the project would be canceled after everyone laughed at the reveal.
Not legal, unfortunately.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taft–Hartley_Act
The Taft–Hartley Act amended the 1935 National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), adding new restrictions on union actions and designating new union-specific unfair labor practices. Among the practices prohibited by the Taft–Hartley act are jurisdictional strikes, wildcat strikes, solidarity or political strikes, secondary boycotts, secondary and mass picketing, closed shops, and monetary donations by unions to federal political campaigns.
I was surprised to see this wasn’t an Onion headline.
Depends on how you define “state”. IIRC, Marx drew a distinction between “state” and “government”, where the former is all the coercive institutions (cops, prisons, courts, etc). In this framework, you need a “government” to do the things you refer to, but participation in that government’s activities should be voluntary, without the threat of armed government agents showing up at your door if you don’t comply.
Oh, yes, please do. Just put that bullet in the skull of Twitter’s zombified corpse and end its suffering forever.
I guess it makes sense that Dropbox in particular would be cool about this.
I had the same question, so for anyone who doesn’t want to dig through the article:
To defend its 2017 repeal of net neutrality rules, the Pai FCC argued that broadband isn’t a telecommunications service because Internet providers also offer DNS (Domain Name System) services and caching as part of the broadband package. A judge said the Pai FCC was entitled to deference on this opinion—even if it didn’t make a lot of sense.
Basically, Trump’s lackeys legally classified broadband as an “information service” to screw the American people and the question is whether the Supreme Court will go along with this blatant nonsense.
“Our company is like a professional sports team, except we are definitely not going to pay you like actual professional sports players.” - a guy who makes way too much money
Lol, no one’s putting a gun to people’s heads to make them act bigoted. If your response to being accused of racism is “Oh, yeah? I’ll show you racism!” then you’re just showing your true colors.
