It costs 1 billion dollars to develop solar cells before they even sell the first product.

The costed 100.000 dollars when starting to sell.

They go for under 10 bucks per square today.

And it’s like that for any technology ever invented.

Yes. Apple is defaulting Google in their browsers and search in general. Google is paying Apple. Google is using the data they get when people search on Apple products.

They don’t care if they earn money the next 5-7 years.

And they will hit the point of a great model doing human work for less than a monthly salary. It’s just a matter of time.

Only if I ask for an answer.

Well, yeah, they hand over everything to Google when using their search engine by default. It’s definitely a business for Apple.

They keep their image as privacy friendly, while taking cool cash to let others harvest the data. Stonks.

Must be hard to come around math, science and in general facts for you. We all agree on how it works, so it must be wrong?

AFAIK it’s only banned for government officials and maybe their family.

I think it could happen. As soon as he’s in the government, they will decide that TikTok is illegal, and he’ll either launch the clone or buy the US version from them.

I actually believe it’s more likely than not.

Then the propaganda machine will include both Twitter and TikTok. You’ll probably never see a fair election again in the US.

This this this.

If we are afraid the ultra rich person doesn’t care, guess we are in for another 10 mil next week.

Could finance alot of things in a society.

Yeah, it’s not like they don’t have competitors, but this makes it sound like they’re alone on the mountain.

FYI Biggest competition is Google right now, and they don’t run Nvidia cards.

It’s like saying Microsoft bought more Intel chips than Apple, while Apple makes their own.

Walking the plank or hanged by the city wall maybe?

In theory yes, but it’s just not realistic for the whole world. In the western world, yes, we can isolate us if we want. It’s just not that easy everywhere.

Polio can’t be compared to COVID when you talk about vaccines.

COVID mutates like the flu, meaning a vaccine was never meant to eradicate it. It simply can’t.

COVID vaccines still help to prevent severe illness, but it was never a permanent cure.

People were morons, but even if we all did what we were told to do, COVID would still exist.

I use PiHole and installed Wireguard on my RaspPi. Works really well, and I can bring the PiHole-functionality everywhere while easily toggle it on and off.

Agreed. Twitter was still a shitshow, when he sold it. Just not as bad as now.

Nice choice. You not switching is exactly what these companies wanted.

Also very obvious when an app or website have an US and an EU version. You just know they buttfuck the Americans because no rules.

Even Apple had to make two versions of iOS.

I don’t know if they could, because they will probably compromise all information into the wallet.

But it’s a good idea. I hope that it can be implemented like you said in a secure way.

They don’t need to take your phone with them. They literally can just scan the code, because it sends all the info to their screen, that they were gonna look up anyway.

No way the government implemented an app for this use case. That’s extremely inefficient.

I thought you actually tried, that they took your phone?
