I think it’s time we recognized the threat to democracy that think tanks and political non profits pose.

That’s a list of a bunch of trucks compared to a midsized SUV, so you’re kind of proving yourself wrong. Cars are split into weight classes, so a comparison that doesn’t acknowledge that isn’t very useful. A EV Sedan is on average much heavier than an ICE sedan.
No one’s saying ICE vehicles are better for the environment than EVs
You’re getting down voted but you’re right. I don’t think people realize that most tires are now made from synthetic rubber, AKA plastic.
Also someone tried to disprove you by posting a list with ICE trucks being as heavy as EV cars. Like what? Of course trucks are heavier. EV Trucks are even heavier than that and an EV subcompact will be much heavier than an ICE compact. Also everyone is talking about how trucks and SUVs are getting heavier and bigger. So not sure what they mean by “we never talk about this with trucks!”
I mean most things can, it just isn’t profitable…
Love how we went from “AI needs to be controlled so it doesn’t turn everything into paperclips” to “QUICK, WE NEED TO TURN THE PLANET INTO PAPERCLIPS TO GET THIS AI TO WORK!!”
Excited for this to lead to Chinese EVs that don’t steal your data and far outpace US EV sales anyways.
Finding new and exciting ways to make cars more dangerous. What an inovator.
There’s a theory that part of the problem is that social media aggregates too many different people in one place. Our brains naturally create in groups and out groups, making conflict and toxicity inevitable.
I’m making a prediction right now that real self driving will eventually rely on people from impoverished countries remotely operating the cars of wealthier countries. Sort of like how AI training data is combed through.
Even if the dude that “killed himself” did do it to himself, he did so because he was harassed by a company for doing his job. Even in the non conspiracy version of the story, the corporation still acted in bad faith and should be held liable for it’s actions. Why is this the hill you want to die on?
The “golden age of capitalism” was due to this. Wealthy people paid their fair share. That and some exploitation of the global south.
So we should make fun of his medical conditions and call him a big dumb poopy butt? This kind of dismissive, glib, ultimately humanizing to his follower content got him elected on the first place.
I’m not standing up for him, but goddamn if we aren’t repeating history.
What is this, elementary school? This is news?
Ah yes, they’ll never obtain my password if not even I know it.
Hey! Guess how they remove all of the content they DON’T want to train AI’s on?
A disturbing portion of the internet’s scams are held up by schemes like this.
Oh great, another stupid fucking empty signifier people know nothing about other than to be afraid of this. Are they really going to get away with another CRT like thing?
Good. Rage until you hurt yourself you undeveloped children.
It would be nice if we had more to celebrate than what amounts to sick burns.
What no theory does to a mfer
Yupp, love that pod cast.
