He also wasn't found "innocent", but "not guilty".

There's a vast difference between that. Not guilty means that we can't prove he's guilty beyond reasonable doubt, not that we can prove that he's innocent.

It's still very likely he committed crimes, but we can't be sure enough to send him to jail.

"Who is this four chan?"

They really can't. Anonymous was something that corporate media simply couldn't explain.

Depends on what you mean by "computer for gaming". You pretty much need a computer at home for school work, printing and sending documents, maybe even some work from home. A lot of this can be done with a phone or tablet nowadays, but that wasn't the case 5 years ago, which is why lots of people have an old-ish computer. And yes, this computer can be used to play games, not all the newer ones, but still plenty of games.

If you have a dedicated, modern and expensive computer only for games (and note that this includes consoles), yeah that definitely does exclude you from being poor.

And if Tesla can get fully reliable self driving, it will be a game changer.

But I'm not holding my breath for either.

Why would that be a problem?

How can you consider Catholic schools "independent"?

And the idea isn't too get rid of those schools, it's to use the money that usually goes to these schools to fund regular public schools instead.

Eh.

This "everything else" are stuff that previously didn't even exist. There used to be only professional tools and a few games, now you have an app (or multiple apps) for everything.

And I'll take a garbage program over one that doesn't exist.

This is the reason why those scams are so successful:

"Hi this is the CEO, wire $10000 to this account right now, we need it there yesterday. I don't have time to talk, just do it. Bye"

Owners. The executives' main job, and the reason they get paid so much, is to shift any blame away from the owners.

It's not just the logo, the domain name is extremely similar too (x.com vs x.org).

Big brands like to own all variants of their domain (so you can't register google.org or facebook.net, for example). But X can't do that.

Yeah, that's just the modern way of talking.
