There could be many factors.
Thiel could be pro-Trump or he could have given a big donation so he could be a plant/spy.
As far as Palantir goes, I think of tools as just tools. Kind of like the gun debate. Whether they are good or bad depends on who uses them. That said, you can also ask yourself what the intentions of the tool developer were.
Thanks for the tip about the gift card.
As for ringtones, you can create your own for free. Or at least you could in the past. (You need a computer to do that. If you’re a phone only person, maybe a friend can help?) A little googling should help you find the directions for how to do it. Basically, you use a song you already have in your library, then convert it to another format, making sure that you clip it to no longer than allowed (40 seconds? 20? 30? I’ve forgotten.)
Most of my ringtones are from songs in my library.
If what I’ve read about MZ is correct, he was “placed” in that position and the CIA was the real developer of FB.
So if that is correct, he definitely knows he’s a fraud. Can’t be good for one’s self-esteem.
Even if he really did start FB, it’s clear he did a lot of dirty dealing with co-developers and stole a lot. It’s also likely that his business model includes massive profits from selling data to the CIA. One can speculate whether that is the major source of his riches. In any case, he has to know he’s a total fraud.
My mileage matches yours perfectly.
You should be in the Senate asking these questions.
Side note: I think we need some laws about “terms of service” agreements. They need to be short and very clear. People need to know what they’re signing up to. They need to be readable and understandable by an average person. They should not require a law degree to interpret. I think should apply to MOST contracts.
Why should it take 5 pages of legal gibberish for me to buy your house? You are selling. I am buying. Here’s the price. That should be upfront. Then, ok, maybe here’s what conveys and what doesn’t. Here’s what’s guaranteed and what isn’t. Those could be SIMPLE lists. Same for any other considerations. Burying things in page after page of gibberish should not be used as a technique for ripping off one party to the contract.
Yes - same here.
THANKS.
I’d understood his Univ buddy created it and Suckberg stole it after being asked to help with it for some reason.
There at least needs to be an ‘executive summary’ in plain language heading all the tons of legaleze.
:)
Yes, I was joking. And I agree that nagging does not work, so I do not do it.
And how many more over the years?
KILL HIM.
I’d like to be there to ask a few questions, but it would be awful creepy sitting there in the midst of a pit of vipers.
Her thighness used some expletives describing DJT in that quote, if true...
How about Q-Balls ?
yes, good take on [ ].
Who set the fire? Black hats, white hats, or real?
This may be a trap —for the Dems...
BREAKING: OBAMA HOLDOVER ACCUSED OF CORRUPTION APPROVED TRUMP LAWYER RAID
"...[Robert]Khuzami was in charge of SEC enforcement under Obama. He did speak at the RNC convention in '04 in support of the Patriot Act and donated to McCain in '08."
Says all we need to know about that guy.
You have struck me as one of the wiser ones.
You give me too much credit, Bagsterino. Or should I say Bagsterissimo.
At least you’re not accusing me of being Q. A title far above my lowly position. Although I would undoubtedly qualify for the initial tryouts of holding Brennan in a headlock with one hand while making Q posts with the other.
(by the way, how did you come to know about that video? first time I’ve seen it or anything like it.)
The "fetch" video? It's from "Mean Girls."
Just type in "stop trying to make fetch happen" in youtube search and BAM. There it is.
