Well, talking about the EU might remind the rubes how shit things have gone since Brexit, so of course they don't want to bring that one up.

Or women voting for Trump?

Or PoC voting for Trump?

Or fiscal conservatives voting for Trump?

Or Christians voting for Trump?

Or any non-millionaire voting for Trump?

Or anyone not named Trump voting for Trump?

It sure seems like they aren't being very forthcoming with their data between this and being threatened with fines last year for not providing the data. That makes me suspect they still aren't telling the truth.

I think their silence is very telling, just like their alleged crash test data on Cybertrucks. If your vehicles are that safe, why wouldn't you be shoving that into every single selling point you have? Why wouldn't that fact be plastered across every Gigafactory and blaring from every Tesla that drives past on the road? If Tesla's FSD is that good, and Cybertrucks are that safe, why are they hiding those facts?

An FSD car that makes perfect decisions would theoretically be safer than a human driver who also makes perfect decisions, if for no other reason than the car could do it faster.

Personally, I would love to see autonomous cars see widespread use. They don't have to be perfect, just safer mile-for-mile than human drivers. (Which means that Teslas, with Musk's gobsmackingly stupid insistence on only using cameras, will never reach that threshold).

What, Guillemot thinks Ubisoft's share price is still too high?

I wish I loved anything as much as Manchin loves the filibuster. Even my own children.

He loves it so much, he even cares about it when he's not running.

I used to have a boss who likes to credit Obama's economy to Bush, saying that presidential economic policies take 4-8 years to be felt.

Didn't have much to say about why Bush I's economy sucked though, for some reason.

This is exactly why fascism is ultimately self-defeating. The only question is how many people get hurt in the meantime.

Many noted a striking similarity to the case of Savita Halappavanar, a 31-year-old woman who died of septic shock in 2012 after providers in Ireland refused to empty her uterus while she was miscarrying at 17 weeks. When she begged for care, a midwife told her, “This is a Catholic country.” The resulting investigation and public outcry galvanized the country to change its strict ban on abortion.

And that's the difference between a sane country and America. We don't even blink when children are murdered in schools- we sure as shit aren't going to do anything about dead women.

Well, yeah. Presumably that's why WaPo had a whole editorial devoted to it, and not just one sentence that said "Harris will be a better President than Trump."

Uhh, stating that Kamala Harris would make a better President than Donald Trump is a factual statement, not a biased one.

There is no objective measure to assess the performance of a President where Trump would exceed Harris.

 

A Warhammer 40,000 space marine is not just your usual sci-fi super soldier. They are hulking behemoths, 10 feet tall (and about 10 feet wide too). They don't move like people, they move like freight trains. They have the physical bearing of an industrial freezer unit and the emotional intelligence of a crocodile. They do not retreat and they do not surrender, and their 9-to-5 is fighting the worst things you can possibly imagine over and over in a completely futile forever-war.
