How are 'dark' donations not afoul of campaign finance laws??

Or is this just another SBF lie?

Yes

My grandfather told me shortly after Kitty Hawk, posters appeared in Manhattan claiming "Soon! New York to Paris in 15 hours by air!" with glamorous people walking toward a Concorde-like airplane.

If you are going to believe the BS header video, you might as well believe this BS story.

The tamale or Kennedy?

The mall near where I grew up suffered from that problem 50 years ago, and was shut down by the late 1970s...

I like the "wartime like economy" analogy.

It took 6 years to defeat the bad guys during the second world war.

Most of the guys that defeated them had little to no military training at the onset of the conflict.

The NIMBYs in that scenario were marketed to with either assured oppression, or war with a "better" future. Same can be done today.

Or Kennedy Approach on the C64: "United three two six, say heading and altitude" "This is United three two six on one eight zero at four thousand feet"...even though I knew damn well what his heading an altitude was.

> Looking up words is not stupid.

That's for the ML algorithms to decide.

This sounds a lot like "an old guy's excuse".

If you are 60 years old, you learned how to monitor your spending in the late 1960s.

Same skill here.

You might be on to something here...."Who needs TV when I have T-Rex?"

Long ago, computing was about freedom.

"I can organize a music collection the way I want...AND take it with me wherever I go?"

Somewhere along the line "convenience" displaced "freedom".

"Why manage my own collection when I have Spotify or Apple Music?"

I suspect the pendulum will swing back at some point.

You are a NCIMBY?

No crashing in my backyard?

> Are we so fu*d up?

"Is the alternative way to express these sentiments?"

Well I heard Mister Young bitch about him

Well I heard ol' Neil put him down

Well I hope Neil Young will remember

Spotify don't need him around anyhow
