Re:Lenovo Selling Linux Laptops Directly in the US on Sunday August 15, 2021 @03:39AM (#28186919)
Yep. Never ever buy Lenovo. Personally, I buy HP and sometimes Dell. But Lenovo is forever off my buy list.
The 40k version isn't available until 5/24 ( 3 years), and it's a commercial variant, not retail.
You've bought the CNBC fud. Tesla made 4x the profit from cars than bitcoin or credits. Valuation is based on the future, not on the past. Exponential growth matters - just look at the last ten years, then extrapolate a few years more. If you did not predict 500k Tesla cars delivered in 2020, back in 2015, then you can not credibily comment on current valuation ( which is based on the future).
False story by the media. The actual fire department said it took minutes to put out the main fire.

All any vaccine does is greatly decrease r naught in a population. No vaccine confers true immunity of an individual when exposed to high viral load.

Probably once the testing positivity rate is well below 1%, things may return to normal. I'll be curious what criteria are used.
Re:Universal Basic Income is Capitalism 2.0 on Thursday July 30, 2020 @03:39AM (#23995620)
This is simplistic.

Anyone, currently can participate in"capitalism 1.0" by buying the stock market.

Most people prefer to watch sports, buy big TVs and not start saving.

Giving those people money will enable entitled feelings, and create perverse, non productive incentives.

Musk's only compensation for Tesla is related to share price. He is therefore doing everything he can to take a large market share from the incumbents - they have had 8 years to respond to the Model S, and have done nothing.

Well the Model Y has been on sale since March in the middle of a pandemic. The Model 3 has been on sale for 3 years.

I think we'll have a better view on Model Y demand in the coming year.

This is not a place to go into points of disagreement.

He did many things in Congress unrelated to civil rights. Those votes are not in alignment with many, who still respect him.
Re:The Inheritance Tax Is Far Too Low on Wednesday June 24, 2020 @12:35PM (#23630159)
People can't be civilized if they don't take someone else's money, which has already been taxed? That's quite a threat of an unruly mob in a desire to quench jealousy.
Re:The Inheritance Tax Is Far Too Low on Wednesday June 24, 2020 @12:33PM (#23630124)
I believe it is selfish to grab what is not yours. A difference of definition.
Re:The Inheritance Tax Is Far Too Low on Wednesday June 24, 2020 @12:29PM (#23630040)
Wealth is already taxed, which paid off the debt to society. Grabbing what is left after someone dies is just theft.
Yes. I've seen first hand abuse of the visas to import cheap labor in academia to avoid paying citizen-level wages.
No one lies about EPA range.

What you didn't include are the details of your commute and why it might be atypical.

Just as the right wing Proud Boys in New York were ruthlessly put away by the criminal justice system, while no just example was made of left wing antifa.
I've read very few reports of actual infection scenarios.

This is one https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/7/20-0764_article Image https://i.insider.com/5ea01ef938bf2357b9756173?width=750&for...

As we are two months into this, we really should be getting regular updates on infection events.
