Is an old man screaming at the tv at home.

    Wait. Is this real?

    And yes, it’s exhausting and stupid that 10 years in, I’m still asking.

    Seriously. I also want to know if it's real.

    Just looked it up, it’s real. In Truth Social.

    Edit: if this happens, I propose we call him “Tim Nvidia formerly known as Tim Apple” going forward.

    Holy fuck he actually didn't call him Tim Apple!

    And i do not think that Cook, who is sitting in a very comfortable position where they can profit from the AI boom, but still have a stable basis to return to if the bubble bursts, would like to take that potential bull ride of a job.

    He didn't call him anything. Notice the dash. AI generated.

    The em dash is the one associated with AI. The dash is a different symbol

    Em dash: —

    Dash: -

    Did you hit your head somewhere? A lot of people use dashes - including myself. Learn what they're even used for, illiterate bakka!

    That's about an entirely different symbol, the em dash

    Em dash: —

    Dash: ‐

    The fact you don't even know the difference is why it was such a hallmark of AI. It was previously used primarily in formal writing like published literature and academia

    It's actually become more common in layspeak though because of AI, but primarily because it's automatically used when doing 2 dashes on many modern systems

    Slightly funny story... I agree with the concept---I was mistaken (and corrected recently); and that many tools like markdown or Word treat TWO hyphens as an EN dash and to get an EM dash you need THREE!

    I love abusing the semicolon, the ellipsis and the hyphen/dash(es) to indicate a mild pause when transliterating casual speech to text. To my horror, I'd been using the wrong one!

    Trump truly only cares about bribes

    His big economic win is AI, and his primary foreign policy is beating China. Huang funneled top chips to China to the tune of billions of dollars. Literally the worst thing he could do for Trump's goals, yet this is Trump's response

    Guess those million dollar donations did what they were supposed to
