I like how half the people are saying T1 isn’t overlooked (compared to T2), and the other half are saying T2 deservedly gets all the attention. And no one gets the irony.
i mean yeah, those are different people. i agree that t1 is underrated but that’s what my comment was about: if t2 wasn’t such a banger t1 would’ve been in a much better spot in our collective sci-fi memory.
And the point is half the people say 'it’s so obviously not overlooked!" and the other half say “it’s obviously overlooked for good reasons!” And they can’t see the other comment. The irony is palpable.
The novelty of Alexa wore off so quickly. Once the “maybe I shouldn’t hook a microphone provided by a corporation in my home” thought crossed my mind I got rid of all of them.
No they aren’t. The number that’s increasing is a price tag, not cash. That’s why no one’s wallet or bank account gets bigger when that same number goes down.
Who do you think the profit of increasing the price tag goes to? The workers in the factory to help them deal with inflation, or the rich shareholders?
borrow against those assets to access their wealth tax-free.
…until they pay the loan back, you mean.
Hell, loans better be tax free, it’s not income if you have to pay it back.
P.S. Some food for thought: if workers’ labor is being ‘skimmed’ by employers, making workers into a source of profit as a result, then why would a company ever downsize as a measure against financial difficulty? Why would any business ever fire anyone who’s doing their job, if worker = profit for the business?
