It's revenue, so costs don't matter.

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), a nonprofit focused on combating antisemitism, defended tech billionaire Elon Musk’s “awkward” gesture during a Monday celebratory event which some critics panned as a fascist salute.

“This is a delicate moment. It’s a new day and yet so many are on edge. Our politics are inflamed, and social media only adds to the anxiety,” the ADL wrote in a Monday post on Musk’s social platform X. “It seems that @elonmusk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge.”

From the Hill if anyone else wanted to know more.

Are we really just going to go in circles?

I did, and found you were lying. At this point you can either do the work yourself, admit you’re wrong and learn something new about the world, or continue trolling and lying to everyone.

I guess you choose to be an ignorant little troll.

Yes. For example, 60 million people in the US (less than 20% of our total population) is a significant amount of people.

If you plan on moving out anyways, why not just sell the house? It'd give you a large up front sum of money, and you would never have to worry about maintenance or bad tenants again.

Felix Felicis is a potion sometimes called “Liquid Luck.” Until the effects wear off, all the drinker’s endeavours will tend to succeed

Harry Potter has an in-universe luck potion. Based on that wiki page, it looks like it was only relevant in the sixth book/movie

I was also looking into this recently, and I think one of the limiting factors would be the storage and processing power you'd need to blur faces and license plates and then let everyone have access to millions of photos on demand.

But he said any further comments could be damaging for NATO.

"One of the reasons why NATO is successful is that we have always stayed out of domestic political issues," he said.

"If I start to say anything that makes it possible to connect me to ongoing political debates in any allied country, I will actually weaken the alliance."

He wouldn't, and he knows it. He was asked about Biden's health and did his job by not really answering.

As many people die from covid as do from influenza or RSV at this point.

I understand you don't feel affected by covid anymore, but you're incredibly wrong.

CDC estimates for influenza deaths in the 2022-2023 flu season: 21,000

CDC cumulative covid deaths from Sep 9, 2023 minus Oct 1, 2022: 84,560

Honestly, I'm not seeing a death count for RSV, but based on this RSV Burden Estimates, it's at most: 10,300 per year.

And this is all shown pretty well in the Trends in Viral Respiratory Deaths in the United States graph.
