Should we have them just explain their platforms for an hour each uninterrupted? Kinda like campaigning?

Your gonna be my friend one day, you’ll see!

Yeah I think probably me saying “big business” is overly broad.

I almost always use that to mean big companies that use their size unfairly in the marketplace, and I’m not just talking about how production of scale works.

I do think that we need to really open up the global market, this competition by country is sort of ridiculous, but I’m not going to pretend I understand it all enough to prescribe a solution.

I see a lot of up votes so there’s gotta be people who agree, but this sentient is rare in the comments here.

For the record, I agree.

Y’all need to figure out how to regulate your emotions better.

Is everyone posting in this thread an alcoholic or something?

I’m starting to think the takeaway from this entire post is how irrational and emotional Americans are, regardless of who they support.

Wow imagine that someone might not have all the time you do to research politics in America. Or maybe they just aren’t smart enough right?

How are so many replies here full of this blind nonsense.

Did it ever occur to any of you spoiled fucks that politics usually ranks below:

1. Work
2. Taking care of family members
3. Cleaning/maintaining property and equipment
4. Spending free time with family
5. Taking care of personal medical conditions

You can’t imagine a single person who say works 2 or 3 jobs and has no time left for politics? Oh right they should probably just know already who’s the right person to vote for, huh? How stupid they must be right?

And then y’all use that as evidence the country is going to shit and full of stupid people. Y’all are so fucking arrogant and none of it is earned.

Why is it so important that everyone vocalize exactly how reluctant they are to vote for Biden? Has his administration really done so poorly? I understand the frustration with Israel but that has more to do with us as a country historically as well as with how strong our ties with Israel are. I don’t know how fast everyone expects us to break all those bonds, and they somehow expect there to be no backlash either?

Apparently patience is just gone in the internet age.

Some people are actually torn between the two, their close family and community lives are so intermingled with both that they actually are both seen as reasonable choices and are waiting to hear more about them to make a decision.

I don’t see anything wrong with people waiting to see the candidates speak unassisted for nearly 2 hours in a rapid fire debate setting where they had to:

1. Lay out their vision for the future
2. Defend past decisions since both were/are president
3. Handle the juvenile bickering that is bound to happen

Its one of the most honest and open displays of exactly who these candidates are, and even though I was already likely to vote Biden, I do feel better after hearing his IDEAS and THOUGHTS despite how he said them.

Thats a great way to put it in a simple way: its wrong to use other peoples content for things they did not expect they would be.

“See I like AI because I’m selfish. Also those bad things are in the past, I’m using an ethical AI system now! But also, who gives a fuck because I only care about myself!”

Yeah you get it guy! Maybe you can be Trumps secretary of technology!

You really put 30 minutes of your own time above all of downsides this has for the rest of us who don’t have a use for it (most of the world)?

Microsoft is in a death spiral.

Even my coworkers who are complete idiots with technology, who actively sabotage themselves every time they touch any piece of hardware and software, have soured entirely on nearly every Microsoft product across the board.

Its funny how quickly people change their minds when they dont understand the technology on a deeper level. Its just: “this is frustrating now I hate it” and no further thought.

True, most global brands are garbage, but I do see a lot of stuff locally thats sprung up to fill interesting niches. I still think the community of people who say “fuck big business, and fuck endless greed” is a growing bunch so I’m hopeful.

It helps for me to watch what the generations after me are doing, and they are doing a fine job fighting for progress in my opinion.

Plenty here means that most of the time was spent saying stuff, and the rest was the highlights everyone is passing around.

I don’t have a lot of inner details about amazon but I do know that they have peaked already as far as retail goes. I don’t know when, I just know its happened already.

Amazon is no longer any of the following:

1. The cheapest deal
2. Filled with reliable reviews
3. Filled with trustworthy companies

And on top of that, their product search page is to the point where not even the advertisers are having a good time. The end users (buyers) stopped having a useful interface a while before that.

Its easier now for me to avoid amazon simply because they aren’t the best deal by nearly any metric any more.

It does seem absurd that this stuff is tried in front of supreme court justices.

Could we do something like you say that involves experts in the field weighing in on the pros and cons, and costs?

Is it that the supreme court justices shouldn’t hear these cases at all, or that they are just so corrupt they can’t rule fairly?

Well I don’t expect it to happen suddenly jut corporate america has already started its decline, and with that its power will decline as well.

That’s more of a faith thing I suppose, I don’t have much evidence to back it up with besides anecdotes about my own community.

:(

Well, to be fair, you said you only watched the highlights.

I guarantee you that none of the normal question and answer sections made it into the highlights reel.

Both candidates said plenty of substance through the night.

I honestly have no idea what point you were trying to make here.
