Has anyone at Microsoft ever not been horrendously underqualified for whatever position they were in?

Ah, the French.

Our government has spent a lot of money on anti-smoking propaganda that was probably more effective than they intended at making them look like incompetent cowards for not shutting down the tobacco industry altogether. I know there was a period in the 2000s where internet lolbertarians would try...

When you put it like that, it sounds suspiciously like an excuse to take women out of the workforce and replace them with men.

And that's without the enormous potential for malicious compliance on the part of the regulation writers.

So he's getting a big fat payout from the military industrial complex once he retires, I take it.

Off topic, but now I'm wondering if one contributing factor to self-checkout failing was customers intentionally causing errors to ensure a real human would come over and ring them up every time they went shopping. I mean, from my experience, the stupid things were unreliable enough that they...

Plus, plus: the point of customer support these days isn't fixing the problem; it's getting them to give up as quickly as possible. You hear it all the time from people who work call centers: their performance is measured solely by how soon the customer was off the line. I'm sure from their...

That combined with the bills needing to be an order of magnitude longer is going to result in a lot fewer bills ever making it to the debate floor, let alone passed.

And how would you propose making such a sweeping yet vaguely described change? The only "solution" I've heard proposed to this setup is to abolish the bureaucracy entirely, a move championed by the right specifically because it will free corporations from having to follow any laws or regulations...

I am unclear what you are calling for. Just complete abolition of government entirely?

So I'm unclear on what these bills are proposing. Just mandatory ID checks on all users to even log into their own computers?

You know what, I think this guy would make a better President than Trump or maybe any other Republican ever again. Whatever he aims to do, the opposite will happen. Let's see this guy try to start a war with Canada; Canada will be declaring victory and annexing us within the month!

And the help article they linked to is already gone. I guess Amazon rescinded the offer or just doesn't want people to know about it.

AI has profitable use cases, provided the end user doesn't care about the quality of the results. I've seen tons of commercials on YouTube for products/services that push AI as a way to avoid work. "Need a website for your scam business? Just tell the AI the name of your company and what you...

He also can't pardon them for anything they haven't already been convicted of, so this is worthless to them as long as he also continues to protect them from prosecution. I hope they're smart enough to realize that.

Well, that's what happens when you blow up their leader and leave an opening for him to be replaced with someone even worse.

Honest except for the entirely made up part about them having been "fighting him for years"; it's news to me if any of them have broken with him on a single issue.

Hey I know this is old and I disagreed with like half of it at the time but I thought of another one just now. DISCORD.

Which they likely won't, because they won't be allowed to, because Trump's biggest asset to Republicans right now is his willingness to turn the upcoming midterm election into a complete sham. They don't even need to pass legislation to make it happen and have it on the record that it was their...
