No, they need to actually report on him. That includes the court cases, but also the constant stream of crazy shit that he says at his “rallies,” as well as what his plans are for a second presidency.

Musk raised $6 billion in a recent funding round for his would-be OpenAI competitor, xAI, whose first product, Grok, is meant to serve as a politically incorrect answer to ChatGPT. In addition to Tesla, SpaceX, and xAI, Musk is founder of brain interface startup Neuralink and tunneling venture Boring Company.
Seems pretty straightforward to me.

In case anybody is wondering why he’s making a big deal out of it.
As to why emoji feels the need to make his own “anti-woke” AI, it’s because he thinks that, at some point in the future, our AI overlords will decide to cull white people to meet “forced diversity quotas.” I’m not kidding.
It’s not the last 40 years, it’s been since Civil Rights legislation and the Brown vs Board decision.
They’re intentionally misrepresenting what RCV is and how it works, playing on their base’s fear of voter fraud (which itself is code for Hispanic people voting.)
That sounds like more of an assault than a disorderly conduct.
This is one of those situations where I like to imagine what would have happened if the guy did that to a cop. Likely a litany of charges, including assaulting an officer, and would have had the shit beaten out of him.
The Trump Org and various campaign entities have, of course, denied that any wrongdoing took place, and denied that Trump had knowledge or direct involvement in compensation issues.
“We didn’t do anything wrong, and even if we did, Trump himself didn’t do it.”
This is undermined by the multiple witnesses in the trial which just ended, who repeatedly testified that Trump insists on hand signing every single check that is for more than a certain amount of money. It has varied over time, but usually something relatively low, like $10k. He is characterized as a relentless micromanager when it comes to money, and is famous for (and constantly brags about) fighting every financial charge, and never paying a penny more than he has to.
It would not be reasonable to assume that large payouts or appointments to high up positions within any Trump org could happen without Trump’s knowledge and approval.
This brings us back to:

This was essentially his exact defense in that NY criminal trial, and the jury didn’t buy it.
We don’t know what kind of equipment those ladies are working with…
I use the term legacy media all the time. It refers to well-known, corporate owned media outlets, both TV and paper. The kinds of outlets that usually publish unvarnished lies from right-wingers, lest they be accused of being “liberal” and are therefore both-sidesing the US right into fascism.
I don’t know what the person you’re responding to is on about, but “legacy media” is definitely a real term.
I read a brochure at my local butcher shop. The chickens they sell are put in crates and gassed to death. Supposedly pretty easy on the animals. This seems much more efficient than individual submersible trips.
The Internet immediately worked, which is one big difference. The dot com financial bubble has nothing to do with the functionality of the internet.
In this case, there is both a financial bubble, and a “product” that doesn’t really work, and which they can’t make any better (as he admits in this article.)
It was obvious from day 1 how useful the Internet would be. Email alone was revolutionary. We are still trying to figure out what the real uses for LLM are. There appear to be some valid use cases outside of creating spam and plagiarizing other people’s work, but it doesn’t appear to be any kind of revolutionary technology.
Yes, and add a little bit of cold war style paranoia in there as well. These companies know that their product doesn’t work very well, but they think their competitor is maybe right on the verge of a breakthrough, so they rush to deploy and capture market share, lest they get left completely behind.
Still gotta keep pointing it out. The goal of these people is to normalize their shittiness, so you need to keep saying, “this isn’t normal, these people are whack as fuck.”
The dream of the right since public schools became integrated.
It’s very frustrating. Here in Ohio, there was a maybe bribery scandal on a bailout for two energy companies. The former house speaker and one or two other legislators got prison sentences.
The bailout stayed in place, however, and all Ohioans are stuck paying an extra $50 a month, just for having a fossil gas line active. If you have a gas stove, water heater, or furnace, it’s fifty bucks a month just to be able to use them, plus whatever you actually use on top of that.
The ironic thing is that the show Seinfeld was more like IASIP than Friends, in that the characters were mostly shitty people, and the joke was usually on them (even though they similarly often destroyed the lives of people around them.)
Kinda. These people like hierarchy, partially because then they know exactly where everybody stands. They of course don’t want to be at the very bottom, but understand that they won’t be at the top, either.
Because the unite the right march was explicitly about white supremacism? You think there were some “very fine people” marching around and chanting, “Jews will not replace us”?
Spoiler: there weren’t.
I’ve never seen footage of a group of Nazis marching around and thought, “I bet some of those dudes are actually pretty alright.” That’s also not something I want my presidents thinking.
Gotta put the trucks somewhere, too.
