The ruling class is tired of you having those benefits. They are actively working to take them away. There will be a handful of engineers and a handful of thugs to keep the engineers in line and everyone else is going to live like the Stone age.

Every time we start to get a little more advanced than that they will send drones to bomb us into pulp so that we can't challenge their power and authority.

"Sounding similar Is not impersonating."

This is about songs being posted as if they were productions by the artists in question. The summary says so, no need to RTFA.

First off I would have to have a bank willing to loan me to Capital to do that. However they are going to be unlikely to do that because of perpetually high interest rates thanks to stagflation caused by monopolies raising prices creating inflation.

But let's say I get past the high interest rates, the bank is going to look at my business plan and they are going to question how likely is it that Facebook is just going to run me out of business or buy me out.

If not Facebook then replace them with whatever mega corporation who's under serving a space that I want to enter.

For the bank the buyout is fine because they will get their loans paid off.

But the problem with that is the loan just gets paid off. What the bank wants is the interest on the loan. They want me to carry the loan building up my business. But there's no real opportunity for my business to get built up so the loan just gets knocked out and the bank has the costs of the loan without all the juicy profits.

And of course there's the other possibility that Facebook or whoever just runs me out of business. That is increasingly likely. Again with a complete lack of antitrust law enforcement they don't have to pretend anymore.

They can enter my space with their nearly unlimited resources, undercut me financially for 6 months to a year and then wait for me to go under. Then they come in and consider doing the buyout to get any engineers I might have hanging around that they want.

So the bank is going to look at anything I want to do as a ultra high risk endeavor and just not give me a loan. There is no upside to them.

This is nothing new. The Way businesses used to get off the ground is that the government would back the loans. But the ladders have been pulled up by baby boomers and older Gen x (oops I just triggered a bunch of mods here) so all those programs that they benefited from are gone.

One of the problems with being old is that it's not just that you don't like change but that you actively pretend change didn't happen. Old people go out of their way to ignore how it's not like the good old days anymore.

All of the programs and all of the systems that benefited and protected you have been systematically dismantled. The process was started right after Barry Goldwater lost. If you go read what he wrote he actually warned you about it. Not because he was a great person or anything but because it was going to weaken America and for all the terrible things he was he at least wanted America to be a strong country

And, who goes to prison? Nobody? As expected. "AI" is all about stealing stuff these days.

Where are the stats, man?

Which is impossible at this time. Unless you want to build up a second network? Or but some easily cut wires on poles instead?

Seriously, using the Internet is NOT the problem here.

So forever then? The only company which got approval to build one so far decided not to because it wasn't going to be profitable. Even SMR proponents don't want to actually build one because then we'd all find out that it's just a scam.

Solar + battery is cheaper than coal, let alone nuclear

The approach used is called the "Big Lie" (https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FBig_lie). Works well on uneducated idiots with delusions. Obviously, the orange moron did not invent it or even optimize it, that was done by much smarter people (albeit with just about the same lack of morals, honor or integrity).

... will slowly make your phone unusable. What did you expect?

Well, it is the 3rd rated peddler of insecure crap known as "Cisco". What do you expect? Made cheaply, sold expensively, and who cares about customers getting hit.

Indeed. Especially when that "patch" did break other stuff or require effort or downtime to be installed. And not liability for not doing it.

He does not seem to be a negotiator at all. All he seems to do is make threats and then take whatever deal the other side offers.

Naa, the US will simply become a state in Russia (or China) longer term and then the problem will be solved.
