  6. Tonight is a good night to remember:

    The golden goose is overvalued.

    There is no golden egg factory.

    But real eggs do lay eggs, if you’re patient.

    Now I’m going outside to look at the Moon.

  8. RE: flipboard.com/@futurism/future

    ....says the man who felt the best way to explain the value of his company to its investors was to liken it to a goose with a factory inside it that makes golden eggs that are actually AGI. Oh, and thinks he's like Jesus as he, too, is misunderstood.

  9. I know #Goose is sooo 2 weeks ago. BUT while running errands today, I ran into an actual Goose who's value was 70 ($69.97 CDN)

    Sooo maybe, in this case, the Goose has some value after all? No? Value is still 0? LOL. Maybe I should have looked for golden egg ornaments instead.

    the Ellisons’ #Oracle mafia are behind

    - the killing of CBS tv and radio
    - the #Paramount - #WarnerBrothers merger
    - more than 30,000 laid-off tech workers since 2025
    - the #Stargate capitalist welfare grift that includes #NVidia #OpenAI #Softbank
    - the herpes-like spread of ecocidal data centers

    if you’ve been waiting for a sign of the #AI implosion, this is the official beginning.

    Oracle has its tentacles all over the #aislop push. now their stock is junk.

  12. Her name is Nikkei, I have a dream about her
    But eggs don't lay eggs, I lay three in just half an hour
    Oh, how she rocks at counting those stocks
    But she doesn't know who I am, and she doesn't give a damn about me

    'Cause I'm just a goose unvalued, baby
    Yeah, I'm just a goose unvalued, baby
    Listen, who made the value, baby, but me? ooh

  13. #SoftBank CEO #MasayoshiSon expressed #scepticism about the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of #ElonMusk’s #orbitaldatacentre vision, arguing that it wouldn’t address the current compute constraints in the #AIindustry. While Musk’s plan could benefit SpaceX’s launch and compute businesses, Son’s comments highlight the need for a more immediate solution to the #datacentreshortage. techcrunch.com/2026/06/27/soft #tech #media #news

  14. This is just to say

    I have eaten
    the eggs
    that were golden
    in color

    and which
    probably
    don't
    lay eggs

    Forgive me
    they were delicious
    and goose
    was not valued

  15. There once was a man from Monsalud
    Who had a goose named Pascal-Lude

    But eggs don't lay eggs
    He cried: ‘The goose was not valued!’

  17. That's significant.

    "Hyundai's move to buy SoftBank's remaining 9.65% stake in Boston Dynamics for $325 million is not just cleanup from an old deal. It gives Hyundai full control of one of the few humanoid robotics companies with real factory work in sight."
