Thats how i understood it. That is why it is so worrying, what you **want** is for it to be banned in violation of the rights and freedoms given by the constitution. You recognize it would violate the constitution yet still want it. That is what is so concerning.

@benroyce

Thats what happens when you dont actually read what was really said... glad you realized reading the **whole** thing is important. Hopefully you wont make that mistake again in the future.

You might want to try bringing your reading comprehension up. I never said they had no influence in decision making. I said they have no influence on day-to-day operations. Words are your friend.

@HopelessDemigod

So you think we should do unconstitutional things like ban tik tok? I agree with point 4 that would be a better approach but point 2 worries me considering you admit to point 3.

@benroyce

Oh you are certainly a crackpot, but your misrepresentation of my argument isnt why.. well it is, but for reasons you clearly struggle to understand.

@realcaseyrollins @CaptMorgan @lauren

@benroyce

On the flip side me and 2 other investors DO hold positions, all C-level, and as a result of holding positions we have a great deal of influence as founders.

@realcaseyrollins @CaptMorgan @lauren

@benroyce

Not what I said... try reading what I said and try again.

My new company has about 7 founding investors at about the same ownership % as him... I have never even heard from a single one of them past the initial investment. I run the company and they dont even know me, let alone have influence.

@realcaseyrollins @CaptMorgan @lauren

@benroyce

It would literally be illegal (and very uncommon) for an investor who holds no position in a company to have any day-to-day influence. They can and do have influence when they hold a position in the company. That position may even be as a board member, though this would very much limit their dat-to-day influence.

@benroyce

I mean, i literally just took a company public and run several corporations.. Pretty sure I know exactly how this works.

@realcaseyrollins @CaptMorgan @lauren

@benroyce

I mean tats literally some random dude with shares, granted its a high value of shares, but still a random dude with shares. You do know a share holder, no matter how many shares they hold, does not get to dictate or influence day to day operations at a company right?

@realcaseyrollins @CaptMorgan @lauren

@benroyce

Im not sure what point your making. The fact that someone who bought some tiktok stock has done some bad things has what exactly to do with tiktok? Is he the CEO or even work for them?

@realcaseyrollins @CaptMorgan @lauren

@skyblond while btrfs and LVM can be used to get similar results in some ways they really dont overlap that much. I run all my laptops with LVM+LUKS+BTRFS and i find it to be a great setup... I also use raid when there are multiple drives

@freemo

Possibly!

I haven't seen any westerner refer to mangosteen at all. And considering its origin in Malaysia/Indonesia (+PH and I guess TH) with their largely Muslim populations and fondness of the fruit (my 2nd most favorite, after mango) the term is guaranteed not present there.

Quick search on the net leads to a joke; "What do you call a Jewish mango? Mangostein"

@cdarwin diverting a tax )payroll tax_ to SS where that same tax can be used to pay the deficit is absolutely contributing to the deficit. Now im not saying we should cut SS, but it very clearly is money being used on SS that could be used to reduce the deficit.
