Ahh yes, the classic Air Bud constitutionalist

Just because you click on it that doesn’t make it accurate.

Given the choice between clicks/engagement and accuracy, is pretty clear Google’s for the former is what got us into this hell hole.

Reddit-Bot: “You can get a large one topping pizza from Dominoes™ for just nineteen ninety eight when the undertaker threw mankind off hell in a cell, and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcer’s table.”

Seeing how some very particular relatives are, I wonder if much of the gas leaf blower crowd is less “watch me stick it to the libs” and more “look at me, I’m cleaning my yard, that makes me better than you”

But lets be honest, even Duck Duck Go is better than Google these days.

I hate to say it, because I love their privacy policy, but it we’re being honest, it’s not. DDG mostly uses Bing, and I struggle to find what I’m after on that engine. I have better results with Brave search, who now run their own index (but their tech bro CEO leaves me nervous at every turn)

Don’t forget to upload some ISOs as well! Keep the network healthy and happy :)

Even the article about how Google’s tracking is bad is loaded with Google trackers.

They’ll give you 3 free months of identity monitoring. Retail rate: $3. Wholesale: $0.01. They’re so thoughtful.

Look, billionaires are bad for society, but normalizing this kind of dehumanizing violent rhetoric is how we get violent extremists.

When someone finally decides to act in this language and mails a bomb or goes to Tesla HQ with a gun, guess who is probably not going to be there

The mailroom worker or the receptionist are going to be in the line of fire while Elon probably isn’t even in the same state.

3.5 million people died during the French Revolution, only a tiny fraction of them were actually part of the ruling class. Acting like this is some ideal to strive for is childish. The “joke” stopped being funny the 27-millionth time it came up in the comments of a “Billionaire Bad” article.

At best, you’re distracting from people discussing real solutions to wealth inequity, at worst you’re promoting violent extremism. If I were moderating a community I’d probably boot you as well to make room for more productive conversations.

I mean, context does matter. If you’re replying to a post or comment about a person or group of people, “guillotine” comes with a pretty clear implication: “they should be sent to the…”

If you were responding to a question like, “What tool did Mel Brooks’ character use to provide circumcisions in Robin Hood Men in Tights?” “Guillotine” may be an acceptable response. Again, context matters.

Saying they can’t ban a word is the same excuse white supremacists use when they coopt shit like the “OK” gesture to symbolize white power.

A very thin veneer of plausible deniability doesn’t somehow make a call for violent executions align with policies against violent rhetoric.

Someone should probably tell the so-called “DEI Mayor.” I think it was actually just a bunch of racists using that term, not people who just thought we had a dedicated DEI professional on city staff to champion diversity, equity, and inclusion.

He will be so shocked to learn it was racism the whole time.

It’d be tough, but I guess we could dig her up and try?

I mean I disagree with most of what the person you’re responding to is saying, but they are entering into a new stage of vehicular liability. By telling the driver they don’t have to pay attention there is an implied transfer of liability.

It probably says somewhere in the terms of use that Mercedes isn’t at fault or that you have to carry some special kind of insurance, and frankly computers have a pretty good shot at being better than your average human driver so they’ll hopefully be easier to insure, but nevertheless, people on both sides of every accident for the first few years with this tech will sue. Any chance to squeeze a few milly out of a 100 billion dollar car company.

I’m cool with them having buildings, they just have to pay taxes to fund those roads because their LARPing doesn’t have any backing to justify the exemption.

Agreed, and I’ll add, as an EV owner, none of the brands above them have anything resembling a respectable EV lineup, except maybe BMW, but that’s being generous. Toyota, Honda, and their subsidiaries make great cars, but they’ve dragged their feet more than anyone on the EV market.

As far as I’m concerned, if you’re looking at this from an EV buyer’s perspective, KIA/Hyundai top the list (which is reflected in CR’s EV ratings, giving them the top spot for the last few years)

Also, for better or worse, pause tells X “if you figure out how to fix this problem we might come back.” Canceled says “go find someone else who is cool with Nazis.”

Having that financial incentive dangling in a string might be more motivating for X to change. If they don’t change of course, the net effect is the same as canceling.

Okay how about Consumer Reports (an independent member-funded nonprofit), who put Kia/Hyundai at 10/11, admittedly showing Genesis much lower in the pack (18). Kia/Hyundai still beat out every American manufacturer on the list (not that its an overwhelmingly high bar).

They’re definitely not perfect, but more middle of the road than older stigmas might have people believe.

Yeah, but “My Pillow and meth” money is very different from “new car” money

The fun question is:

• is it racism from the people administering the drug?

• is it racism from the people handing out sentences disproportionately in districts with shit health standards?

• is it racism because a “standard” dose of just about everything is calibrated to white athletes from the 1920s?

• or is it d) all of the above (plus probably a bunch of fucked up things that didn’t even cross my mind)?

Does that say E375?!
