  • House Judiciary subpoenas Tim Cook & rest of big tech about alleged collusion

    Come on! 
    Not one of you is going to blame Trump?  
    How disappointing.

    Well, let’s see if the Republicans can prove these platforms are intentionally suppressing conservative speech like they claim. There’s a big difference between censoring hate speech and legitimate conservative speech.
    By these actions, the GOP seems to be (inadvertently) implying that there's little difference between the two. 

    I'm not sure where to find "legitimate conservative speech" after William F. Buckley was buried. 
    “Seems to imply”?
    Doesn’t get more concrete than that. You must be right. I mean correct.

    Ugh, what a horrible idea.

    Why would anybody want to pay for a phone in perpetuity?  I'll keep doing it right, I'll buy a phone and own it.
    What is it like to not be lack the ability abstract and think beyond your own personal situation? It sounds really awful.
    What is it like buying stuff you don't need, and can't afford, using revolving debt, and paying twice as much as the person who buys what he can afford, when he can afford it?
    How do you know any of this applies to their situation? You make a lot of personal assumptions about someone just because they are an advocate for choice. 


    He's an advocate for high interest, revolving debt, NOT choice. Once you sign that contract or agree to terms you didn't vother to read, you gave up choice.
    Ok chief. Whatever you say. You seem to know everything about everything and everyone, so I’ll defer to your expertise. 
    Sarcasm? Is that your best response when you can't refute facts in evidence?
    What facts? The whole post is supposition. 

    How do you know the interest rate they’ll pay?
    How do you know whether they will carry the debt, or pay it off immediately?
    How do you know that they didn’t read the contract?
    How do you know that they are even a “he”?

    In the absence of facts, sarcasm is all that is required.

    What's the point of a 15 inch Air? You want to 15" display, buy the Pro.
    The point is about $500 to $1000.

    A MBA15 with M2, 8 GB RAM and 256 GB will be about $1500. Option for the 16 GB and 512 GB, probably $1900. A MBP16 is $2500.


    So, what's the point? Buy a 13" MBA or a 16" MBP. Don't have the extra $500? Don't buy it.

    Nah. You just don’t get it. 
    Be honest…you’re George, aren’t you?

    For someone who routinely derides others for buying things that you find superfluous, how exactly does this elude you? 
    Was this your reaction to the iPhone 14 Plus too?
