RCS is a 3GPP standard, the infrastructure to run already being paid for by my wireless bill. I would prefer people use it to talk to me.
Doesn't it depend exclusively on Google?

Also:
$8.99, which is effectively $9, which is effectively $10
At that price it better all of it goes to the effort and not of it to the CEO.
Or you could just set the "mic" to blast some good ol' Rick Astley.
Geocities. Geocities still lives on.
All that post needs to be truly complete is some marquee or blink.
"Impossible"? They just need to ask for permission from each source. It's not like they don't already know who the sources are, since the AIs are issuing HTTP(S) requests to fetch them.
Very late to the convo but: sounds like a name that one can build stuff from. قَرِفَ ("qarifa" in Persian IIRC) seems to translate to "to peel" which I guess it means to do that to a fruit, for example. There's also تعرفه ("ta'rif" in Arabic IIRC) from which we get "tariff", "tax", "rate", etc. Curious that this appears in a fruit puzzle since you peel fruits and weigh them to eg.: pay a rate per kilo.
Anyway, as an example if I was to build something from all this context it would be a (pseudo?)-legendary of either feline or avian shape representing the concept of trade or exchange. Something using the constellation of Libra 's scales for the representation of trade, and a repetition pattern of body adornments, such as plumage or crests, as athe representation of the concept of double-entry accounting . In the case of a feline-ish I would even shift it closer to the interpretation of the Sphynx (tho that's more of an Egyptian influence) or a centaur-ish interpretation closer to the Manticore (and that's going Greek / Old Persian).
If going feline, with the Pokémon having chain-like hairs or protrusions attached I could go the extra mile giving it two pairs of those (to combine with double accounting too) and bam! you'd basically have the concept of an audit-oriented Displacer beast.
If going bird, I think I'd throw it in the general direction of sea gulls to represent trade winds, but would probably have to mix pelican in there somewhere for birds who are known to carry and move stuff around; the end result would probably end up looking something in-between Wingull and Lugia.
Anyway that's just me, a Pokémon worldbuilder with lots of free time.
What's your beef with the tagginator bot? It's certainly better than the reddit repost bots, right?
And such "return" comes after the work, not before. So there's no reason to condition the wages to do the work, on the potential that the work might be sold or not and to what amount of people. Now that would be air-quotes "stealing"!
He is the nerdiest nerd ever. That's why he's long seen what is going on and has been trying to save us.
I think my point is getting lost in the one pro-corporate part of it…the corporation is responsible for nearly all of the risk, and that investment is what ultimately creates the content. They absolutely do deserve some stake in its IP, just not necessarily nearly as much as they currently have.
No and no.
the corporation is responsible for the risk
The creators take more of a risk by going with a corporation. Corporations have hella money, they can afford to spend some on [checks notes] living wages.
the corporations ultimately create the content
Once again no. The creators do.
