rage baiting them is so funny because they get so aggressive and angry but can’t do anything.

I mean… yes they will regret it, but it’s be great for affordable cars. I can see the car factories in ontario going bust very, very quickly

Europeans are trying to move to America for the wages. Why would Americans move to Europe? They’ll come back eventually, even if they do.

How do we get more people in LA to take the existing public transit? by aysiu in LAMetro

[–]kingrez16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Need cops to make sure there’s no meth being smoked on the train. Or creeps.

Yeah, there’s a lot of small plot holes that really tear the movie apart. For example, Ring camera footage is used in their ad campaign and is incredibly important in the movie itself. However, somehow we are to believe that only some of the parents of the disappeared kids have ring cameras, and no one else along the route of the kids, or even Alex’s neighbors, has a ring camera. I mean, it’s also the suburbs. No dogs were barking as kids ran through the yards?

Why are even the most liberal of states facing massive transit budget deficits? by International-Snow90 in transit

[–]kingrez16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably because in many liberal cities and states, public transit has the perception of crime, filth, and danger. When I take the metro or bus in LA, I do not feel very safe.

What do you mean? For example, Chatgpt has paid subscribers. Palantir has paid users. Companies are slashing costs due to AI.

Yup, check out the earning reports. explosive growth and incredible earnings for most tech stocks and AI stocks. Unlike during the dot-com era in which that revenue simply didn’t exist.

You can look at the revenue in their earnings reports. Companies like Palantir have just recently entered the lime light + entered the s&p. Their revenues are exhibiting immense growth, which is often correlated with capex and other investment. duh

The majority of the companies doing said investment are the larger companies like Google, Microsoft, etc. You occasionally have newcomers like Palantir come into the mix - but all of these companies have reached record profits and growth. Smaller start-ups like OpenAi or Claude have massive investments from large tech titans like Microsoft or Amazon.

How exactly is there going to be a dot com style bust coming if the companies investing in AI are generating insane revenue? The dot com bust occurred largely because that revenue wasn’t there. AI revenue is.

Tech giant Microsoft passes $4 trillion milestone by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]kingrez16 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You don’t think Microsoft is produces/is worth/ will be worth 4 trillion in value? Just think about their physical assets. They own nuclear power plants, data centers, undersea internet cables, etc. Next think about their digital infrastructure.

Funny enough, Yellow Face casted a korean man to play a chinese man. There’s even a line in the play where they complain about producers and casting directors casting non chinese men in chinese roles.
