    You explained it quite well, I just didn't think you were serious.

    Let's go back to my original question. A company that's dismantling itself for a quarterly profit. Obviously Microsoft doesn't fit since they are doing it for many years now and are still going strong even if just on paper like you say.

    So according to your analysis when will it be dismantled? Will they go down in 3 months as a punishment for the latest quarterly profit? Maybe a year? 5 years? Will it happen in this century?

    It's going to come to head in the next 5 years. Before 2030 for sure. Maybe even next year. Depends on how quickly the collapse happens - my bet is on painfully slow. Just an inevitable reality, slowly playing out year over year

    We're in a bubble. Obviously. Pay attention. The speculation doesn't line up with reality. Eventually, it will reconcile with reality

      You used to be able to tell what every process was doing on your computer. Nowadays there are so many processes running and they all have tons of child processes that you can't tell what is doing what.

        That's great news. Will be waiting for it.

          Could be wrong, but that looks like a generative AI version of Clippy. It doesn't look like an actual paperclip and the text bubble is coming out of his eyes.

          So using big tech to mock the use of a big tech logo to fight big tech is like 2 layers of irony.

            He would have tried to sell your data if he could have. Clippy would use Recall 24/7 if he could have.

            Are we debating whether we like or dislike the particular flavor of the chosen symbol for consumer activism? "Maybe if it was cornflower blue?"
