  • Going with C. Without explicit language to the president, they will need to interpret this to mean the president included, which may be up to anyone’s interpretation.

    I feel it should, however it could be argued it doesn’t.

    who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof

  • You can turn off iMessage in settings and disable the phone number from messages. Then use whatever messaging service you want with the phone number.

    Still not sure how it’s anti competitive to not allow others to use your own proprietary software when there are alternatives available, and they are not being restricted.

  • Not seeing how it isn’t criminal charges, and instead a settlement with little more then a sorry we got caught.

    “I feel like I have to do it otherwise there will be a target on my back in my own district for the chair,”

    What a coward.

  • "X sits in a one-of-a-kind constellation of companies that are changing the world—from helping to conserve the planet through Tesla's electric vehicles, to exploring new planets with SpaceX, to the seamless global connectivity of Starlink, to the potential of transforming lives with Neuralink, to responsibly reimagining the benefits of AGI through xAI."

    But you don’t work at the company doing any of those things. You work for a company that lets you post 140 characters online.

  • ‘The result generated by the test would almost never happen in the real world, Musk’s complaint alleged’

    Think this kills the case quick. So he is saying it does happen, and doesn’t seem like the media matters report mentions frequency.

    The discovery in this case will be interesting, if they even get there. Media matters could end up with even more dirt on twitter.

  • This. Same shenanigans with Taylor Swift last year. Still not great, and still could fly commercial, but even those need to be moved to other locations with no passengers/cargo from time to time.

    Edit: where is that “thermonuclear lawsuit” we were promised.

    Double edit: in fairness he did follow through! https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/20/tech/x-sues-media-matters/index.html

  • Right? The media matters article screenshots clearly prove it’s allegations. Unless he tries the angle that they were photoshopped (and obviously he needs proof for it) this gets dismissed immediately.

    Hoping it doesn’t cost media matters anything or that they can recoup any fees they may incur from this. Nice to have real reporting with proof to back it up like they showed.

  • Path of exile is another example. Many many years of new content, base game is free. You can buy increased stash size, which, while difficult, isn’t necessary, but massive QOL. You can also buy cosmetics.

    Someone like me likes to support them for the hours I play, so when they release new context every 3-4 months and new leagues start, I usually buy something from them.

    1. A person
    2. There are some companies who are way better at it than others. I’m not reading the 20th Uber promotion email this week, but when a furniture store I like puts out theirs once a month for new styles I will click on it and see what’s there. Especially for expensive furniture that maybe on sale or clearance.
    3. Work a normal job. Doesn’t take long to click it, decide if I like something, or check the sale.
  • Contact HR. Ask for clarity. They won’t want a potential class action on their hands depending on the size of the company/state law.

    If not satisfied with the answer, contact the state board of labor. They should be able to give better answers then random internet strangers.

  • “ This homeless guy asked me for money the other day. I was about to give it to him and then i thought he was going to use it on drugs or alcohol. And then i thought, that's what i'm going to use it on. Why am i judging this poor bastard. People love to judge homeless guys. like if you give them money they're just going to waste it. Well, he lives in a box, what do you want him to do? save it up and buy a wall unit? Take a little run to the store for a throw rug and a cd rack? he's homeless.”

  • Polls just create talking points for media to run around with. You could easily find (or discard) data to create any narrative you wanted. Remember when Hillary was the runaway favorite? Remember when Jeb Bush was the front runner?

    Just go out and vote. End of the day no matter what the early polls say. Go Vote. Make your voice heard.
