No idea. He clicked a button, they went out. I’m sure there was a big factory in China. Anytime new registrations were down for the month, send out another batch.

I worked there from 2002-2005. Was 2 cubicles down from the guy responsible for sending out the “free trial!” CDs. Fun times

Well this is obviously going to go swimmingly.

TSA agent: “step out of line and over there, sir. You have an outstanding parking ticket in Fresno. We can’t let you through until you use our approved automated payment processor and agree to our new Terms and Conditions.”

Haha, nice. Reminds me of the libertarian detective copypasta.

I am shocked…shocked! that Google would let a product die on the vine and cease supporting it. Google assistant is dead, long live Gemini assistant!

Would I not pay my roofer if they were a Rump supporter?

You got downvoted but you’re right. The only cabal at work here is basic human greed. Anytime you want to know why people do something, consider the motivation of the person and the incentives. Musk constantly talks about how autonomy will make his company worth “trillions”, and he wants that because he’ll keep maxing the high score in Billionaire Bastard Bacchanalia.
