Journalist: "We have found reason to believe there may be a conflict of interest in the way SpaceX receives government funding!"

Official: "Nonsense! He is a brilliant entrepreneur, blessed by the free market!"

Journalist: "But if he receives government grants and also holds influence over government decisions, shouldn’t we at least investigate?"

Official: "Investigate? Are you mad? That’s not how modern governance works!"

Journalist: "How does it work?"

Official: "Well, if he weighs the same as a rocket... he's a genius!"

Crowd: "A genius!! Burn the critics!!"

Journalist: "But that doesn't make any sense!"

Official: "Look, strange billionaires distributing subsidies is no basis for a system of government! Supreme executive power derives from a mandate of regulatory oversight, not from handing out massive contracts to one's own companies!"

Journalist: "So you'll investigate?"

Official: "What? No! Now go away, or I shall dismiss you a second time!"

I'm open to changing my views. What TUIs do you think are great?

[–] keinBloudsinn@lemmings.world 1 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I just don't like tuis. I think they're clunky and usually not well implemented.

Who said anything about electron?

I'm confident that they are being forced to not compare the current situation to nazi Germany.

Probably because the Ukranian war has shown many how drones could be used.
