That or they have a large stake in microsoft.

Why would I entertain an answer at all? It has nothing to do with this conversation other then you wanting a win.

So, no thanks.

I did, and just think its bullshit. Investors have to invest, where would they put it if not in “safe” companies like microsoft?

Its total shit talk to put words and intent into a group of people and funds. They don’t care, they just have money to park and Microsoft is seen as a safe place with a good return. There has been too much invested in this shit for them to change course, but also no alternative to invest in.

No, no they did not. They just said nothing, and execs took that to mean what ever they want. As is tradition.

Like they just licked a French doods ashtray.

Oh it has, but the implications become clear when you look at the ones that did. Like evergrand…

Ha, like 5% of the time. Most of the time its cluster fuck after cluster fuck and visits from the good idea fairies.

Not saying there should not be innovation, but innovation for nothing but to be able to say you are doing innovation is a cancer.

I don’t work in the industry anymore, but I did manage a few “fleets” in my day. However I do know that if I made such a typo (on the literal only data point) I would also be poked fun of when I did work in the terrible tech world. And if I lashed out I would be further dragged over the coals as let’s face it, that would be kinda pathetic.

Please tell us the name of this 110% software dev, so we can avoid it. There is a min amount of math needed here.

Funny thing is that is not likely. The shareholders of microsoft (and most blue chip companies) have not really asked for anything other then endless profits lately. This endless drive into shit seems to be almost entirely driven by weird sales pitches and executives chasing a sunk cost.

I am arriving!

Do they think the sun only shines on earth?

Its just naked greed, the sooner the world can move away from america and these companies the better.

I got unreasonably upset the other day when I realized that windows can no longer seem to sort folders by size anymore.

The non tariff nations getting hit with higher then us prices just shows how little they think of customers. They assume we will pay, they feel entitled to our money. The products have stagnanted, the prices are made up and clearly based on nothing but good old fashion “fuck you pay me” logic. My guess is they are assuming “AI” companies will just buy whatever they make.

If people keep buying however they will keep doing this. If the market drops out from them (AI bubble bursting at the same time people cut back on buying new systems) then they will likely ask for bailouts (your money again).

More boosters!

There is a 1000 hp tesla with 3 motors that all together weights about 450 killograms, this seems to support your idea until you look at how much the batteries weigh…

The batteries are 550 kilograms to start, and are generally considered to not be big enough. So yeah, great they solved the issue that no EV had (EVs always had lighter motors, and very heavy batteries).

Edit: The 1000 hp telsa is 2200 Kg total, so yeah this would cut out 400 ish Kgs (assuming cooling and inverter and all that) from the total, not nothing but not really a game changer ether. Also 1000 Hp engine is stupid and not needed, maybe if it was a 200 Hp version but then also that would be diminishing returns as this motor would be what 4 kgs?

Ah good thing the batteries are not the heavy part of the system otherwise this would be awkward.

The kids can be alright.

Unfortunately they are not uncommon, adults that are more childish then their children at times. I try to help but there is only so much I can do.
