    Dan Gilbert's latest ode to his ego

    Positive me says, "All new development is good for us in the long run."

    Cynical me says, "Just what Detroit needs - more housing for the 1%, built in part on tax breaks given to the billionaire who's going to construct and own it."

                Yeah, but they treat their employees like dirt. Even compared to other airlines, their management is the most miserly scum of the bunch, openly circumventing Norway's labor laws using a web of subsidiaries, staffing companies, and leasing contracts.

                The only positive coming out of their US expansion is that it's forcing our legacy carriers to lower their European fares to compete. There are some good deals to Europe this summer/fall if you poke around and are flexible on dates and destinations.

                  The billionaires don't matter, only their money. They themselves are no more or less capable than a guy picked at random on a subway.

                  Just repatriot the money from the tax shelters and tax wealth over $1B at 99.99%. Re-steal what they stole. The world will keep on spinning and our entrepeneurs will have to be satisfied at being worth $999,999,999.99.

                  Do the above and sink every penny into giving every citizen an equal shot at the American dream, and we'll have 1000x the super-capable people at the top and all the efficiency and synergy that implies. Everybody wins but Ivanka, and quite frankly, f-ck Ivanka.

                      With the large MN contingent on this site, Target Stores news is always welcome, I'm sure.

                      Target to launch new brands, lower prices after quarterly results disappoint

                      For the upcoming year, Target said it expects a low single-digit decline in comparable sales. Its shares plunged 13 percent.

It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

                        So, uh, it sounds like Apple is ditching the Lightning connector for USB-C on the iPHone 8.

                        I didn't see that coming.

                        And it's apparently going to have an option for a curved OLED screen on the high-end model made by Samsung.

                          I guess they think they're strong enough now not to have to imprison their install base.

                          By that logic, Microsoft should be introducing a proprietary power connector soon.

                            Not at all surprising. Their upper management is a joke ever since Jobs kicked the bucket. No innovation or vision at all, just happy to collect profits from hipster d-bags, and Boomers who think Android is too difficult to figure out.

                              I dunno. Moving away from proprietary and having a competitor (the competitor) make your screens take some serious balls even if it's not innovative.

                                Balls? Haha, nope. It's just an admission that they do it better, and cheaper, than you. Meh.
