ody fill in the complainers what happens when you complain about the volume? That's right, I turn it off and I quit. I'm not going to fix it. That's what it is. So wear headphones or stop complaining. Good, I'm glad we got that sorted out. By the way, I should have that resolved when I switch to the Rumble studio. I'll be moving to a laptop and I believe the sound will be much better, but u

The estimate is that Earth will reach 8 billion people by January 1st, so there will be somebody who is designated as the 8 billionth person to be born. Would that be cool? Now of course they're going to have to make it up because they don't really know who is the exact 8 billionth person, and people are dying at the same time people are being born, so you don't really know. But don't they usually designate somebody as the 8 billionth person when you reach a new billion? Well it's meaningless.
Let me ask you this. If you don't think that this is a simulation, how do you explain that after 10,000 years of civilization you happen to be alive at the same time that the population has a problem of decline? You know, declining population is a bigger problem than growth. But it happens to be exactly the same time that AI and robots will become commercial.

Now I honestly expected that everybody would say what are you talking about. What I'm talking about is when I use my Apple products, my phone or my laptop, for random reasons that I've never discerned the screen will be taken over occasionally by an Apple Music thing that's hard to delete. Like you have to go to the menu to delete it. It doesn't even have a little X to close the window. Like what the hell is that? And it happens to me so often. And I don't have Apple Music so I don't even use it. It's just an ad. It just is a virus.
And it turns out there are people who actually stopped using Apple products just to get rid of the Apple Music ads. At least people responded and said yeah I got rid of the entire platform so I didn't ha

ve to see the Apple Music anymore. It actually acts like a virus, like a legitimate how the hell do you get rid of a virus. All right, I'll work on that. With AI there are big questions about copyright as you know. But I found that there are quite a few people on social media who believe that copyrights should go away and that you're hurting the commons, you know the public's common good, by havi…
