🤔 Interesting

That is how capitalism works.

The American Weather Service provided weather updates for free, but a company came along and just started copying what the weather service posted ... then sued the Weather Service for publicly posting the weather because the government is not allowed to provide a service for free that a company can charge for.

Insanity.

Senate passes bill to lower housing costs and restrict Wall Street from buying homes

Reply in thread

Nope. Private Equity firms have already snapped up all the houses they want.

They could have fixed this easily with taxation. First homesteaded homeand anything on a VA loan is tax free, second home is taxed normally, third home owned is taxed at +5%, fourth +10%, fifth +15%. No exceptions, no deductions. Not even banks are exempt ... want to foreclose on a house? Pay taxes on it. That would fix things instantly.

BREAKING: Elon Musk Calls For New Political Party to Stop Trump’s ‘Insane’ Spending Bill

Musk could have been a superhero. He could have just made EVs and not done a Nazi salute ... things would probably be fine.

No. He had to tamper in politics and likely give Trump the win. Musk was too dumb to realize he would get thrown to the side the minute he said anything but "yes" to "Great Leader" ... now he is thrown to the side and is too dumb to realize it's over for him. He is hated on all sides.

He can kiss Trumps ass or fade in to obscurity. Those are his options.

Absolute insanity

22 years of marriage here. Never bought, given, or worn a diamond in my life.

Marriage rings are a marketing campaign created to sell you a piece of carbon that is so "rare" they put them on $12 drill bit sets.

Yep. Yep. Different quality stones. Gotcha. Interested in buying a bridge by chance?

After police used Flock cameras to accuse a Denver woman of theft, she had to prove her own innocence

AI is built on a reward system. Its sole reason for existence is to complete its task and get the reward points. It will create false information to do this. One AI that a lawyer "accidentally" used in court actually created its own 4-5 page court cases to use as citations to justify the case it was working on.

AI is a novelty and should NOT be in charge of any decision making or be admissible as evidence in any way.
