Haha, hostile. I merely pointed out your failed points then suggested a better means of sharing your valid point - going as far as agreeing with you... that's hostile? Yeah, okay.
Just trying to throw away the concept of size is probably the most unfair thing here. You are trying to change the conversation so your argument appears valuable. Then you kind of piss that attempt at goal post moving by claiming that while size is irrelevant, somehow shape is. What a strange move.
You make a good point on the US state vs Country comparison, I think that certainly plays a much larger part than size or even population. But if you wanted to argue that point, rather than dismiss relevant concepts or inserting ridiculous ones - you could rebut with a question like "can you name the subjects of the Russian Federation?" Or, if you are in a fighting mood (which...clearly), you could just respond that American exceptionalism has them overvaluing the relevance of US States on the global scale.
Correct - not that their big-brother asses would be caught dead in areas where the employees work. They just want to feel like people are there. It's enough to bring in a cardboard cut-out.
It's also wrong a lot. Hence the requirement for understanding. It can be helpful to get through a stretch but it will fuck up before too long and relying on it entirely is a bad idea.
They aren't interested in innovation, they are interested in profit. Tech billionaires are not innovators, they are immoral businessmen. Jobs stole, Musk buys and squanders, Bezos buries - each for their own benefit with no care for whether the things they destroy will help others. You are looking to the wrong people for help in any of this - they aren't saviors they are parasites.
That depends on your definition of hot. Personally, I am not into 9-year old street rats. But hey, royalty is known for their pedophilia so... probably works for them.
The sad part of all of this is that traditional Republicans have handed the party reigns over to extremists for the illusion of maintaining power. Had they told their crazies to go pound sand and fallen behind Democrats they would likely be capable of course correcting to retain some level of competition with liberals. Instead they gave power to nut-bags who have pretty much ensured their eventual, permanent demise.
Those soft-brained idolaters are still waiting for their commemorative sticker for signing over 80% of their assets to "stop the steal". They couldn't afford a bridge, no matter the bargain.
Never work in tech, friend. It is an endless parade of buzzwords. Idiots will think it is a revolution, people who put even the smallest amount of effort into understanding it will know it isn't. Sadly, the idiots tend to be the ones making the decisions. So you get to spin your wheels on a fool's errand until their surprisingly lengthy attention span moves to the next buzzword. As the parade continues you just lose more and more faith in humanity.
I wish I had an answer for you other than some people are really fucking stupid.
They just haven't yet "imagined" the many new features we have received in the last few years from non-Apple phones. Don't worry, once Apple "imagines" it, they will acknowledge the only logical truth they could conceive. That Steve Jobs' consciousness uploaded to an iMac has graced them with innovation once again.
This is 100% correct. The term has no definition in their world, it is just another form of their "boogeyman" control methods to keep the stupid and scared engaged. It only works on these fearful idiots because of this fact.
