Only for normal people. If you are rich or a company like this you can leverage assets for a rate lower than the rate of return on your investments and come out ahead by financing over paying cash. Rich people don't pay cash for anything.

Shame they are going to send you a "battery protection update" that makes your phone last 45 minutes between charges on year three.

I'd bet against any plan that requires Google to not fuck you over for a whole 7 years.

It never occurred to me that releasing these files might cause child traffickers and rapists to actually have CONSEQUENCES. The horror. Anyways...

How many of you can actually PROVE that your parents were here legally when they were born?

I don't mean "of course, my parents were Americans." I mean what do you have actually ON PAPER in your pocket or in your home that PROVES that? Do you have your parents birth certificates handy? Got their passports with you? This can be used to fuck over just about everyone in this country if they want it to, and guess what? They do.

Get me a linux smart phone with a headphone jack and I will buy it in a heartbeat, but I don't think very many other people will.

It's a more inclusive term because "child predator" and "child rapist" all require some verifiable action on the person's part. Is a person who is sexually attracted to children and just looks at like AI generated CSM not also a pedophile, despite not actually directly harming children?

No, but it is if maintaining affordability is, which is what the rest of us were talking about.

Yes, that has been the conventional wisdom for the last 20 or so years.

There have been multiple points in history where stripping a pre-built for parts was cheaper than buying those parts individually. Honestly, that is probably the case more often than not because they get the parts cheaper.

For real. I know for a fact that Valve can buy hardware for less than any of us can. Its just a question of how much markup they want to slap on this, but it could easily be cheaper than any of us could build an equivalent.

Sure, if you are certain you found one that is current with current availability and pricing and where none of the specific parts have shot up in price relative to their alternatives. I have literally build a dozen PCs over the last 20 years and it would still take me time to make sure I had an optimal build at a reasonable price, even if using someone else's build.

With hardware prices being what they are at the moment, it wouldn't surprise me if these wound up being cheaper than most home-built alternatives.

That's not who lost money here. Those assholes were out LONG before the rug got pulled on the dummies that bought this garbage.

Doubtful. The Greeks celebrated nudity as a tribute to the gods. The Olympics were conducted nude. He is naked for a reason in this story. Its why the statues of these heroes are almost universally depicted in the nude.

Last I checked "presidents friends" aren't exempted from insider trader laws.

Bill Nye is actually kind of a dick.

Since when do we have to show our papers to the secret police?

He was holding his baby sister when a dog was about to be run over by a car. He was so shocked when she fell to his feet in ashes that he didn't even save that dog. In that moment he promised himself that he would always make the numerically superior choice.

We used to play a "serial killer" game in Red Dead Redemption. The goal is to kidnap a woman without getting seen by anyone. Its actually a lot harder than you would think because female NPCs are RARELY unescorted in the game. It opens up an element of planning and stealth that you (or at least I) don't usually use in that game.
