Traditional media generally requires having three different independent sources to publish.

You have failed to provide one.

They all just voted against their own economic interests to win their culture war.

Objectively, they are stupid, even the ones who went to college.

Now try and add some evidence?

"They are giving more money to people who are already ahead." They did that three times in Trump administration. Resulting in the largest deficit increase ever...

The pain ahead is realizing China is the new superpower. Tawain won't make it to 2028.

I don't understand why the free speech rules everyone wants aren't also trying to be applied to these platforms.

There is an interesting argument here.

If Google was selling brand new books created only by taking snippets from other books, that would also fall under fair use?

I know this might sound crazy but DEI and ESG are revenue driven.

As an NPR listener this garbage. NPR has covered almost everything he says they didn't.

He just didn't like how they covered them.

Even his stats aren't that great. Washington DC is 75% registered democrats and only 5% registered republicans.

We tried this but didn't make an exception for outlook or teams so it was useless.

I'm not going to turn that sandbox on when I'm not at work.

They created a huge buzz around it, took over a year to release and when they did so, released it to the wrong Insider ring, so everyone who was on the fast ring specifically for and waiting for it had to re-install.

I believe, without any proof, that this is why they had to redo their rings and what they meant shortly after.

Then there is everything else people have mentioned, with them being completely reliant on Amazon's store but requiring "something" where most of the apps that are on Amazon's mobile store weren't available.
