gravstar | 4 years ago | on: Tim Cook poised to get $750M final payout from award

This is Apple saying Tim Cook is 100% responsible for their 10x growth which of course absolutely false.

Apple individual/private/corporate consumers and their wallets are responsible for all that growth.

Tim Cook is responsible for the policies, enforcement of policies, commercial-propaganda, and the MASS dissemination of commercial-propaganda that extorted consumers, proliferated human rights violations, destabilized regional and global economies, and severely impacted the environment and ecology of our planet.

You sound scared. Make better decisions and life won't be so terrifying.

Linux lost when it decided users didnt need to know

1. What a computer is.

2. How a computer works.

From the article: "This means that the most important choice you have at the start of your Linux journey is to determine the desktop environment you want to try..."

You are the reason the world is breaking.

"...we now have a society where the vast majority possess knowledge and skills necessary for success in various dimensions of their lives, including work, community engagement, democratic participation and more."

Not sure what society the author lives in but I'd love to visit a place where "the vast majority possess knowledge and skills be essay for success."

Of course they know. There are no innocents, no civilians. We all live on the battlefield now.

If you're referring to the 1991 Idaho - Ruby Ridge then no, robotics were not deployed.

1. Go run. Start with short distances, then build up. Exercise daily.

2. Eat healthy food - think plant-based. Stay away from sugar. Don't lean on caffeine.

3. Control your environment: sound, light, temperature adjust these until it feels right.

4. Stay away from toxic people who will take advantage of you. This might mean "family & friends".

5. Foster your own curiosity.

6. Your ability to focus, aptitude for pattern recognition, and empathy is not a disorder.
