Autonomous vehicles are at times both amazingly advanced and bedshittingly idiotic.

I’ve ridden ~25k miles in them for work, and I trust them more than 95% of the drivers on the road. But I’ve also experienced them acting in ways that are still quite far from the way humans would.

Why would he pardon a bunch of antifa activists that were also railroaded and unfairly imprisoned?

Oh, the humanity!

Gotta get one last war crime in.

No Man’s Sky. A foot deep but a mile wide.

No worries. I’ve never played a ttrpg, just have a passing interest and thought I’d ask. Cheers!

Is this a body-swap thing, or just the players having to play different characters?

Trump, and a large portion of the US electorate, don’t understand soft power. The idea of propping others up helps yourself; of graciously taking a back seat in one area to strengthen your position in another. It’s fucking infuriating, and it’s going to have ramifications long after Trump joins Kissinger.

Primary and secondary schooling is just practice to be good little worker bees. That’s why conservatives view college/tertiary school as iNdOctrINATIOn cEntERS

Completely agree on people not understanding statistics. See: most of the polls showing a slight edge to Harris, but with a 3 to 4 point margin of error, being taken to mean that Harris had it in the bag.

SOMETHING HAPPENING 49 OUT OF 100 TIMES IS STILL VERY LIKELY!

“You win! 🥳”

I do Top/6hrs, but will jump over to Hot if I’ve been scrolling too long and run out of content.

I heard this in my head to the beat of “The hand that feeds,” and it actually works pretty well lol

Yeah, I’m neurodivergent and have a terrible memory. My life is full of alarms and notes and reminders for everything, otherwise nothing gets done.

While I’m well aware of the insidiousness of tech’s ever increasing privacy violations, I also look forward to things like AI being able to function as a full blown personal assistant to help me run my life.

Yup. For those that don’t know, that’s essentially how utf-8 works -

Indeed, not only “an accidental conversation” but an intentional one would fall outside the statute’s scope unless the U.S. citizen’s intent was to affect a foreign government’s policy in a concrete way. Thus, former basketball star Dennis Rodman most likely did not violate the statute when he traveled to North Korea and met with that country’s leader in an effort to promote “peace and love.”

then a permanent ceasefire and withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza, and ultimately the reconstruction of Gaza and return of Palestinians to their homes.

I don’t have anything to add, but want to ask a question about this part: what fucking homes?!?!

“Ok, you can go back home now. Btw, it’s a pile of rubble now, so good luck with that. Bye!”

My dad bought me a ridiculously expensive (like $400) Samsung vacuum that I loved. It was strong, it came apart in really cool ways to make it versatile, etc.

It failed in less than a year.

The $60 Walmart special Bissell that I went and bought to replace it lasted for 8.5 years before the motor burned out (I screwed up and it got too much pet hair in it). I bought the same one again and it’s going on 5+ years with no issues.
