  • You should be more undersantding. Since Trump is now enraged because people call Musk the President, Musk needs to find a backup country where he'll be called the leader before Trump kicks him out. That's all just risk mitigation!

  • I buy social medias and news outlets. Then I weaponize them to support a clueless gullible idiot candidate for POTUS.

    I use my influence on him to get a position that will allow me to get grossly richer by favoring my own businesses, including crushing unions and force my employees to work to death on low wages.

    When I reach 1 trillion $, I'll have much more resources to improve the planet and living conditions of my fellow humans.

    But wait! Maybe I could do even more for humankind with 2 trillions $??

  • Since they're about to let go all of these gov employees, they will need a lot of money to hire consulting companies for pretty much everything. That's what started happening in France and Canada already.

    These private companies consultants are so much more efficient and cheaper than low paid gov employees who've been running the ship for decades. You totally believe it, right?

  • Yep, that's textbook big tech strategy: -Build up the hype -Get the product out there, make sure as many orgs and people start using it as possible. Make it free or sell at loss if necessary -Oh yes, we broke a few laws for this. If we don't get a waiver, we'll have to close the service for everyone, do you realize the impact?

    That's Facebook on privacy, Uber on workers rights, etc. Now N+1th: OpenAI on copyright.

  • To summarize: they had a happy life until a terrorist group took them during a massacre.

    Then they lived a short horrible life in the hands of their takers, while there is a war outside where one side claim to fight to liberate them without actually negociating their release and the other claims to use them as hostages while not really negociating their release either.

    And somewhat, they end up dead because let's be real: neither side gave a f*ck about them.

  • In these companies, does anyone check the licenses in details to make sure using them is ok for the company?

    Meta will get at least the metadata: meaning they will record who was in which call connecting from where.

    For example, if one member is visiting a client, Meta may be able to infer the relation between the 2 companies.

    If any of the people in the room click "report", then the discussion is sent for review without the encryption protection

    I'm pretty sure their user agreement translates to "you agree to let us do whatever the f*ck we want with the data you're purposely disclosing to us".

    And last but not least: if Meta decides to wipe the archives, any info get lost?

    There a reasons large companies ban unauthorized apps to talk about work.

  • XMPP is so bad it was the baseline for Whatsapp. You know: that minor platform that feels like IRC and never took off. A lot of the techno around you are old stuff that evolved, "new" techno usually comes with new unexpected issues. Then they mature, get better and... old?

  • You wish. Orban controls all the media there now. You can be sure the narrative is "Ukraine is just punishing them unfairly for calling for a ceasefire and negociations" or anothe nice story that will make them look bad.

  • This is the wrong aporoach.

    You should build a mockup site, use it to raise 2M$ for the startup behind it you just created arguing you're about to collect personal data about the age, education level and place, curiosity, etc. with overinflated numbers on their real values.

    Then you hire a bench of students, or better: launch a competition for the best "fact you were told that turned out wrong" with a 1k$ prize that you eventually give to some biz angel's investrent adviser's child.

    Once data are acquired, claim the company is now worth 10M$ and raise that much in a new round.

    Finally, sell the company for 20M$ either to a tech company that will enshitify, paywall and crater it.

    You still don't have your website, but now you're rich and you no longer care about these things.
