Georgist from the beginning did care about other form of rents, like resources.
Land rent-seeking is still incredibly important. Saying all modern problems are from platforms is silly considering that most people spend far more of their budget on their living situation, compared to paying money to apple or google.
And its much easier to switch from apple to google or other platforms.

There was the whole time. Who are you talking about?
You could literally buy a fucking van. Much larger volume, much easier to load.
Since when is a fucking roof for storage in your car revolutionary? Its only revolutionary if you are brain-rotted in accepting pickup trucks as the norm.
STAR Voting (Score Then Automatic Runoff) works in two stages:
1. Voters score candidates from 0 to 5.
2. The two candidates with the highest total scores become finalists.
3. The finalist preferred by more voters wins.
So it combines score voting and runoff. Meaning it favors centrist candidates that are prefered by most people over somebody that can turn out the base.
They sold FSD for private cars in cars like 7 years ago, that you can take a small area in Austian doesn't matter.
And people on Hardware 3 should collectively sue, because they will never, ever, ever, ever get FSD fully working on that. But instead of admiting that and paying people back (if they want) they continue to release small updates to pretendent its still possible. Musk is known for not giving a shit of supporting old shit, he looks at only the future always.
It’s like the entire city of Austin. It’s also the entire Bay Area.
I’m only making the point that it’s a real product and you can buy it. Sort of implied by the parent comment of it being a “scam” meaning that it was never delivered.
HW3 gets a supervised version which is the best they can do with the hardware that they shipped, it’s unfortunate I agree but it’s not totally out of line with what happens with other devices like the iPhone. Apple has a version of Apple Intelligence which is neutered on older devices, presumably because of hardware limitations.
I rode in a 2024 FSD Model 3 in greater Los Angeles area (maybe call it SoCal), for a couple hundred miles mixed highway, suburbs, heavy highway traffic, night driving etc, and every mile besides parking it did almost flawlessly. The only "mistake" i saw it made was one of overcaution. on a very wide road turning right at a red light, it started to go and then hammered the brakes when it saw a pedestrian begin to cross _on the far side_ the person didnt cross our path for like 30-60 seconds we could have been long gone and every human driver I can think of would have gone.
Yes pro-tech and pro-capitalist means that you have to outright support the AfD in Germany, Trump in the US and Restore in Britain right?
Because those ultra far right wing parties really care about science and long term technology development. They also super love capitalism. I mean ignore that they want to destroy free trade, destroy the international order, dismantle equality before the law that is the bases of capitalist labor markets, that they are incredibly and openly corrupt and make it clear that contracts are given out based on loyalty rather then any serious evaluation of technical quality.
The far right wants a old school hierarchical society, based on loyalty and traditional values, not capitalism. Capitalism is literally what has opposed this world view for 100s of years.
The list goes on, if you actually believe that these people are pro-tech, pro-capitalism you are fucking delusional.
Ok, he outright supports the AfD in Germany. A party that has literal known Nazis in it. And no this isn't debatable, its outright facts.
He is ultra far right wing and he did the salute as a 'joke', but even if you want to ignore that and argue it away, his support of AfD is 1000X worse. He actually supports a party that literally wants to overthrow German democracy like the actual Nazi party did historically.
He also associated and support far-right wing skinheads in Britain and moved from the far-right reform to the even further far ultra right 'Restore' party in Britain.
I don't know how anybody can justify unless they themselves are a far right extremist.
