Still use my 5MX a couple of times a year… one of the most amazing pieces of technology I’ve ever owned.

Perhaps, in that moment, he was more preoccupied with the threat to (US) democracy than the threat to his own self?

Yeah - I was just pointing out to the USians that it’s only changing in their country. The rest of the world will keep the original name.

Still showing “Gulf of Mexico” on Apple Maps for me as of three seconds ago. I’m not in the US.

Humans be allowed in, on and across roads in many countries. Jay walking is the most insane non-crime I’ve ever heard of. I still don’t really believe it exists…

So, yeah, car centric cities are both terrible and insane - but not every city in the world is that way; thankfully.

I paid about $560 in US money for the handset (interest free over 24 months - 77 cents a day?) but have now used it for about 3.5 years - currently works out about 44 cents.

I’m not sure where you live but my iPhone (bnib) cost me less than half a US dollar a day to purchase - and it’s only getting cheaper. I average about seven hours screen time a day and run everything through the handset. (Navigation, streaming, payments, hot-spotting, tickets, translation etc.). For what I get out of it it has to be one of the cheapest things I’ve ever bought…

I thought you were talking about me for a hot second…

Maybe in the US they don’t…

Could a sentence be any more British?

He only won in one country… I’m assuming that the dozen or so non-USians on the web are allowed to use OSM…

But is this not a great step forward for A.I. ?

Jumping to incorrect conclusions after scanning the internet quickly. It’s getting more like humans day by day…

You can sell the house - it’s just not so straight forward for the buyer to get a mortgage.

I thought this was gonna be a deep philosophical question… but then read past the first sentence.

Check out the mod log.

Just looked: regardless of your personal opinion the comment is a breach of the terms of posting. It essentially said Musk should permanently retire himself from life.

Thank you - good luck with the community.

I’ve enjoyed my time talking with you and getting to understand how you see the world and, although I don’t agree with you, I’m glad to have had this exchange of opinions and will now reflect upon what I’ve learned.

Fair point.

Yeah - I’d always thought it would be called a Pom but just before posting I checked Wikipedia and apparently we’re both wrong. I know what you mean, though.

My mate’s little sister was sad and bemused one Christmas when their parents bought her a (single) Pom-pom. Why would you not buy a pair?
