Still better than America

Good. They need to die a fiery death

I’m not saying it doesnt or that isn’t an issue. But it wasn’t what I was talking about.

Yeah once you use a personal AI assistant Google search is just worthless. Google really really fucked up. They held that shit to their chest for way too long. Adobe too. Adobe had the AI speech down almost a decade ago but same thing.. innovators dilemma.

They have zero history of launching a truck also. I’m sure it’ll come. All in good time. A year here, three years there.

Does one of those plug-ins make it work?

I'm about to bring a lawsuit against the next company that says come try our technology and I go there only to sign up for a awaitlist.

That's false advertising folks.

The only reason the pay for play checks were even valuable is because of the weight held by the legacy marks. You're literally making your own idea less valuable dummy. You're turning it into a scarlet letter

Tesla has zero history of doing this. You have nothing to base your claim on.

You must be a Russian or Chicom stooge.

“You won’t come back to the office? Fine, you CAN’T come back to the office!”

I dunno, I’ve been struggling to hire mechanical engineers. It’s not cheaper, we have to sponsor the visa AND pay them a competitive wage here in the US. 🤷🏽‍♂️

What didn't happen? GP?

Microsoft could offer a deal to put those games on GP without buying out the whole company, I don't get your point.

I'm also not defending Sony, any sort of exclusivity fucks us over for no reason (other than their profits), but the answer to that is not "let Microsoft do it too, that'll show them".

Well it didn’t happen so …

> I’m talking about apple employees, the part where I said “They work for apple” probably should have clued you in…

oh duh. and all those apple employees driving to the office causing traffic and increasing housing prices in the local area don't affect anyone else...

I’m talking about apple employees, the part where I said “They work for apple” probably should have clued you in…

What good can come of this acquisition for us consumers?

All acti games could be on GP even now, that doesn't require a full merger.

Imagine generating profit for a company only for them to spend that profit on making your life worse.

We are all blue, some are just more blue than others, because they pay.

And then all the Microsoft exclusives could be on PS Plus

Prediction: they won't do it, they'll yell "April fools!", but they'll still have driven a lot of new subscription revenue

Yea google fiber came to my city and paused their rollout but it appears that they are still adding places…..just not near me.

The other issue is jurisdiction over telephone pole infrastructure.

Google ran into a legal issue with localities who had given full control of telephone poles to the ISPs. They were technically considered private property even though the poles were planted on public soil.

Google was basically being told that if they wanted to expand their Google Fiber internet service, they would need to have their own poles built as they couldn't run lines on what already existed.

I believe Google had laws changed locally in a lot of places as even the local governments were tired of the ISPs and their bullshit.

But this is one of those reasons why ISPs have monopolies in many places. Getting infrastructure built is a fucking nightmare.

Of course the aren’t required to ask, my post never said they were.

I’m not sure if you’ve been reading other comments in the thread here. There are lots of people not even getting calls back for job interviews. The market is flooded with tech workers from all the layoffs. Having an amazing resume at this point doesn’t guarantee you anything. Apple is trying to avoid laying people off and paying severance pay by trimming the workforce by inconveniencing them instead.
