The fact that there are 45,000 ‘trailblazers’ here couldn’t devalue the title any more.

Trailblazing, more like scorched earth policy.

Correct! A "tenant" is defiantly what the obsession with the written word is in relation to white supremacy.

And not for a lack of tough competition.

Coming soon, my debut light novel I (39M) Was Kicked Out Of My Party And Called A Podcasting Bro Because I Didn't Want To End Homelessness In The United States Fifty Times Over And Still Have More Money Left Than The Entire Continent Of Africa, So Instead I Had Factories Build Me Plagiarism Accelerator Chips So My Company Can Lose Money Even Faster. AITA?

It's an isekai story of a techbro reincarnated in a world that's just like ours except he actually has that much money. Then again, that might become reality sooner than you think. If OpenAI keeps up their pace, they will make that $7,000,000,000,000 in just negative 1400 years!

I'll do one more. The three biggest companies by market cap ever have been Apple, Microsoft and NVIDIA, the record being about three and a half trillion dollars each.

Sammy boy here is (allegedly) casually suggesting an investment equivalent to buying 100% of the shares of any two of the three most valuable companies in the world at their peak valuation. If you have that kind of money, you could just skip the pleasantries, buy TSMC entirely and build like five identical copies of the entire company.

TSMC suit: "And is the seven trillion dollars in the room with us right now?"

Can't the OSs resize the image by itself? IIRC Windows 9x could already do that.

I always have my windows tiled or maximized so I just keep an epty black desktop background.

My wallpaper is white and subtly stripe patterned and it was in a surprisingly good condition when I moved in.

AI is playing a role in the ongoing climate crisis. Namely that of the villain.
