The stock market also isn't the economy. Stocks going up means nothing to most people.

After the attack, Balmer called 911, identified himself and confessed, allegedly telling the dispatcher that Shapiro "needs to know that he 'will not take part in his plans for what he wants to do to the Palestinian people.'"

Doubtful that he would be sympathetic to this type of domestic terrorism. Also not sure what the Governor of Pennsylvania has to do with Palestine.

Well yeah, that makes it business friendly. No corporation likes to be tied up in court for ages. Texas has just been trying to pass Delaware in a race to bottom of which state is the most business friendly (and thus anti-consumer, anti-environment, etc).

Tesla was incorporated in Delaware, like many other US corporations.

Obviously nothing changed physically, this is just a paperwork thing.

That's why he moved the companies to Texas from Delaware, because even though Delaware is ridiculously business friendly, they'll actually defend shareholders' rights there.

Yeah, I still have champagne in the fridge from his last health scare.

I mean, the big problem is getting the NYPD to do it. Plus you need a reason, I'm not sure if New York City has a war crimes ordinance.

The mainstream media has always had a problem with just calling a lie a lie.

Were they anywhere close to being a monopoly? There's a bunch of other brands selling the same thing. Anyway, I'm actually looking at buying a NAS and I was already explicitly excluding them because of that BS. I'll probably end up building my own, there's some nice cases out there.

I used to run it for a while (it might actually still be running, I'd need to check my VPS and delete it if it is), but I feel like RSS readers kind of got overtaken by Reddit (and Lemmy). I tried going back to it again a few times, but the lack of comments felt off after having experienced Reddit.

Yeah, from what I've seen it looks great, it's just not a blockbuster or even trying to be one.

It doesn't matter, the supreme court hasn't cared about the actual facts in any of the cases they've ruled on in the last decade.

The case about that coach that was forcing his players to pray was distorted as well, just because they wanted a certain outcome (coach claimed it was done voluntary and in private, pictures show it was done in the middle of the pitch), same with the wedding website lady (the supposed gay couple involved had no idea about it and never actually contacted her, there's no evidence she actually builds websites).
