I think she's going to go in do a Musk Twitter play, cut 90%+ of the staff, have them effectively read the paper on the air (zero "reporting" on their own) and make a big deal about how old media is completely wasteful. Ellison doesn't care one bit about the news department.

I do sorta love how we have completely ripped the frog meme away from MAGA.

I’m just glad that the paper has fully admitted to being a conservative rag. We can fully ignore it now.

I will always laugh when that slew of tech company movies came out and someone jokingly referred to them as the SoftBank cinematic universe.

Masayoshi Son gets taken for a ride in every one of them!

Have you ever seen the silent BW version of Raiders? It also a great watch. I feel like a famous director made it.

I work in video games and some of thinking is similar. It’s about staking out an empty IP space. Sci-fi: taken. Fantasy: taken. Cowboy: taken. Inside a computer: all yours! If we can make something popular we will be unique and we can really milk the hell out of it.

I’m happy a human being didn’t die due to the miracle of modern technology and medicine. But how is this in any way news?

That is also one hell of a fact! Pro solar people should try to get stuff like that out more. It really puts things in perspective. 3 Hoover dams!

Just don’t see any way it’s going to work. It might buy them a few more years. But nothing long term.

I said when they started the detention centers that it was going to be a major way to pay off local governments and a source of corruption.
