And yet there are federal disclosure laws that you must disclose like lead otherwise you are liable. So again you just proved yourself wrong.

And yes, nothing protects a company from not disclosing material information regardless of “due diligence”, including fraud. So give it up.

Yes but if they don’t disclose problems they are on the hook for it no matter if they sell it as-is.

See, you have proven your own ignorance with your example!

When you buy a home, even if you waive all contingencies, including a home inspection, if the seller fails to disclose material problems with the house, the sellers will be liable. This liability extends for years past the close of sale.

So you accidentally gave a perfect counter example as to why you are wrong.

It would take more than invading a building to take over the US. Give me a break. So much delusional thinking. You probably thought all that be about Trump and Russia was true as well even though it was proven to be all fake.

The idea that Trump could have successfully usurped power is truly deranged. He couldn’t. Period.

January 6th was terrible but it was in no way anywhere close to being a real threat to democracy. To insist that it was is delusional.

The biggest mistake he and Democrats keep making is blaming “billionaire Republicans”. It’s not Republicans it’s Democrats voting him out.

He either refuses to acknowledge that the Democrat voters themselves are rejecting his policies out of hubris or it’s a way to shame democrats by accusing them of acting like Republicans. But it didn’t work and only infuriated and calcified anti-Boudin people even more.

Democrats at the federal level better take heed. If San Francisco who is overwhelmingly Democrat will reject extreme progressive policies like Boudin’s, hopefully it means the Dems can regain some sense of rationality.

My friends and I have all made a pact that we will vote Republican until the Dems come more to the center, no matter how horrible the Republicans candidate is. That’s the only way we can change behavior is through voting, and in CA they have come to take voters for granted for decades and left California a progressive experiment gone off the rails to the point of lunacy.

I’ve been using my windows 7 desktop from 2012 until the beginning of this year. I had no particular need to upgrade but thought what the hell why not. I could have happily continued using it for the next few years. In fact I didn’t dismantle it and am now compiling on it.

You don’t have to send the databases over to comply. You can give on-premises access to your data to Musk representatives and let me make their own queries to satisfy themselves. It’s not hard.

I disagree. I think it’s the opposite, Twitter should be providing this data and it’s pretty straightforward. Not providing it or pretending to provide it seems like a way to get out of the sale but leaving open a way to sue him for breach of the sale.

Why is Twitter not providing this data? It’s a straightforward request and it’s not like he would disclose it publicly. It feels like Twitter is trying to get out of the sale by using loopholes, this is very strange.

Indians can tell based on looks, skin color, how they talk, etc. One of my close friends is Indian and you can definitely make a pretty good guess based on a factor of all of these.

It was proven through data that most people at yahoo that were “working from home” weren’t working. It was indisputable.
