  1. Unfortunately, that’s the type of agreement I had lawyers tell me are classified as non-compete and warned that the FTC may eliminate them making any contract null and void.
  2. I think exclusivity agreements are fine, which is why I find it odd they get lumped with non-competes. For a business (especially a small business) it allows them to enter into an agreement with a larger or important party and not have to worry about that party/business also working with a competitor. However, once that agreement has ended, there certainly shouldn’t be any amount of time where one or both parties can’t move on to business elsewhere.
  3. Does this also eliminate "exclusivity agreements"? Lawyers I've spoken with in the past have lumped them in with "non-competes"
  4. I don’t believe this was really a new lore drop, it was more-or-less already established in the games lore going back to the first 2 games afaik. Also, “war never changes” is the tagline for the games, it’s like “with great power comes great responsibility” in Spider-Man What did change with the lore:
  5. Yea, it’s decent, but something about it didn’t click with me personally. I know a lot of others here enjoyed it, though.
  6. SilentBob is actually Snoop Dogg. They’ll deny it and it just confirms it, really.
  7. Ford just teased a “green” (actual) Mustang for their 2025 MY unveil. Likely the non-plug-in electric hybrid 4.0L v8 AWD version they were supposed to put out a couple years back but held off on as they didn’t want to cannibalize MachE sales. Their goal was 30-35mpg avg with “at minimum, the same or better performance than the current* GT” (*they stated this with the 2018 GT that did a 3.8 0-60 and an 11.8 1/4 mile)
  8. If enough people make fun of Musk over it, he’ll force it out even if it bankrupts Tesla.
  9. IIRC, Israeli military aid packages have a lot of strings attached that essentially make it a back door subsidy to US weapons manufacturers. It also stops Israel from buying weapons elsewhere, and even more importantly, gives US some semblance of “control” in how far they go in military responses/actions; if Israel wasn’t getting military aid from the US, knowing what I know of Israel and the IDF, I fully believe they’d be hitting any/all potential threats with preemptive strikes like an unchained rabid dog. Without the aid packages, without Biden at the US’ helm, that response to Iran would have been absolutely terrifying, IMO. The aid packages to Israel are more of a leash above anything else.
