I can’t wait for the first story about how someone’s email account got deleted because they said something less than complimentary about man child Musk on Twatter.

Needs some updog.

It was shot on 65mm film stock, that’s why it still looks amazing.

I’m not feeling any advantages like what ChatGPT or Copilot have.

Unless you explicitly tell it to use ChatGPT, everything is done on device. That’s an advantage for me.

Jordan?

Look into getting a LASIK consultation, they will take some measurements and tell you if you’re a candidate. I’ve got some experience with this and I’ve had it done myself, feel free to ask questions.

I’m still not sure why you’re so certain about this. You’re speculating that something might happen and yet you said that there’s a “100%” chance of US boots on the ground in Iran.

As awful as Trump is, his first term wasn’t nearly as hawkish at that of other republican presidents.

That doesn’t necessarily equate to there being a 100% certainty of boots on the ground in Iran though, does it?

No there’s not. Where are you getting this absolute certainty from?

I’m not sure we’re on a path to WWIII if it’s Russia vs everyone else. If China decides to get involved then maybe but I don’t see any evidence they’re willing to throw in with Putin, same with Iran.

The Kubrick stare.

“In his first response to the ICC issuing a warrant for his arrest on allegations of war crimes, Benjamin Netanyahu’s office has described the ruling as “absurd and false lies” and said the decision is “antisemitic.””

Looks like Netanyahu’s campaign to render the word “antisemetic” as completely meaningless continues.

No U.

The acid rain is going be be so slimming.

It’s not just the US, it’s been happening for years in other countries like the UK as well.

Traditionally there has been one party that is for working people and another for capital and the owner class.

The right has been getting further and further into far right authoritarianism. That posed a problem for the Dems going back to the Clinton Presidency: do they stick with being the party of working people or do they try to have their cake and eat it by tacking to the center and assuming that the working class will continue to vote for them no matter what?

It largely worked for a time and gave Obama two terms but ever since then they have been susceptible to criticism that they’re out of touch, elitists, entitled, and that they look down their nose at working people whilst still assuming that they will get their vote, which opened the door to Republicans.

You can’t serve two masters for very long, you can’t be the party of working people while being run by upper middle class graduates. You can’t claim to care about the people with the least while cozying up to CEOs and megadonors. Sooner or later it all falls apart, as it did with Hillary Clinton’s run, where working people disliked her elitism and she didn’t have enough support from elsewhere to make up the shortfall. That should’ve been a warning. Instead they doubled down.

The problem in the US is that there are only two viable parties. The Dems won’t go back to being the party of working people because they wouldn’t know how to do that even if they wanted to. What happens when the Trump Presidency turns out to be a disaster?

See, this is why I rent.

I’d like to turn him off now.

Just as well. If you turn him on he offers to buy you a pony.

Braking during impact is the worst thing you can do.

This is not correct, where are you getting this from?

Deer on the road is an edge case that humans cannot handle well.

If I’m driving at dawn or dusk, when they’re moving around in low light I’m extra careful when driving. I’m scanning the treeline, the sides of the road, the median etc because I know there’s a decent chance I’ll see them and I can slow down in case they make a run across the road. So far I’ve seen several hundred deer and I haven’t hit any of them.

Tesla makes absolutely no provision in this regard.

This whole FSD thing is a massive failure of oversight, no car should be doing self driving without using cameras and radar and Tesla should be forced to refund the suckers customers who paid for this feature.
