It's depressing how much Republicans want to make a real life Handmaiden's Tale. And what's even more depressing is that they have a sizable number of supporters. Even most Americans support abortion access, but a good chunk of them still either vote for Republicans or stand by and let it happen (ie, don't vote).

Lol, the summaries of quotes are hilarious.

Rudy Further Argued That Legal Filings Themselves Are Really Just Meant to Be Wild Guesses

And

The Panel Did Not Buy the “Dog Ate My Evidence” Claims

Or this one-two punch:

Rudy Thought an Appropriate Punishment Might Be a Slap on the Wrist

...

Because Rudy Refuses to Admit He Did Anything Wrong, the Panel Disagreed About the Slap on the Wrist

It should be illegal to share some kinds of data without a valid purpose. It already is for personal medical information, but taxes and other government correspondence (eg, immigration applications) should be covered as well.

Honestly, it probably should straight up be illegal to sell information about your customers with third parties, period. But starting with the kinda information people most expect not to be shared would be the easiest and sanest to pass.

Would it really be Texas if they weren't constantly being shitty? Texas and being shit goes together like PB&J. And most Texans seem proud of that. They care more about "owning the libs" than being a quality place to live.

But the long run goal isn't to be able to run only in very specific, rich cities that are willing to completely retrofit a massive city to support these cars. Clearly they want to be able to eventually replace all and any car usage with self driving cars.

I think you may also be underestimating just how expensive it would be to install systems like that, especially since it has to be maintained too.

I thought it was fun. Nothing super amazing, but solidly enjoyable. I also liked it a lot better than Clone Wars (which started too slow, felt too predictable, and had pacing issues).

Did you at least try Andor? Because that's the best Star Wars show I've ever seen, and honestly I'd even say I enjoyed it more than most movies.

I've admittedly seen nearly ever Star Wars show, but can't recommend them all. It's often a pretty shallow series, with comically evil villains that have no depth. But Andor is chefs kiss.

I'm not sure how Ahsoka is gonna be. I sure hope it's closer to Andor than the other recent shows (most of which were only middling quality in my book).

And the other one is where Jesus realizes he has a problem with being too nice and that he shouldn't have to "die for their sins", so he and his dad go peace out, leaving humanity to wallow in its own mess.

It does (on the website -- if you're using an app, that's on your app creator). OP simply hasn't replied to any comments in the thread yet. Last I saw, kbin was missing the OP indicator, but that shouldn't affect you on beehaw.

The only way this could go well for consumers is if they could manage to negotiate fewer exclusives from both Microsoft and Sony, and I don't see that happening because they'd likely rather gamble on the chance that their exclusive would be the big new IP that makes them billions. So we're really just gonna see more games become exclusives.

It sucks. Exclusives are just bad for consumers, period. Doesn't matter if it's Nintendo, Sony, or Microsoft. They all just reduce how many options consumers have unless they're willing to shell out hundreds for a new console. Personally, none of my consoles are chosen because of some trait of the console; they're all just to play exclusives. Not even the Switch -- I didn't buy that to play games on the go or have motion controls. I bought it to play Animal Crossing and Zelda. If I could have played my Switch games (legally) elsewhere, I would have.

Who needs to fake tweets when you have Musk saying things that you'd expect to be fake?

The comparison needs to be normalized for distance driven. There's far more human driven cars. But most humans don't spend that long driving (I'm not sure how much of the day is spent driving by these AI cars, but they theoretically could drive all day long).

The quota also does say "involving", which may include accidents where someone else hits an AI driven car. If so, that's highly misleading.
