So I guess X is past the “deny there was antisemitic content” stage.

Also, the hot take from Ken Paxton

Paxton claimed to be "extremely troubled by the allegations that Media Matters, a radical anti-free speech organization, fraudulently manipulated data on X.com."

Freedom to do what, Ken?

This is a weird take to me. One of the groups is not like the other two in your own example. It is obvious that there is a huge wealth gap driven by unregulated capitalism which is contributing to the problem, and multiple studies have shown that homeless people that receive free money (i.e. a universal basic income) use that money to stop being homeless.

Why don't cops take desensitization training so they can control their anger whenever someone insults them? How do you not laugh off being called a dork and a virgin?

Now please create one that’s designed to eat carbon dioxide and methane

Upon re-reading, the threat to bomb a specific public event was most likely where the line was formally crossed. IANAL

This raises serious questions about freedom of speech. Much of rap has a violent history. Are the cops violating his civil rights, or do his lyrics truly constitute actionable threat?

In America the segment for small pickups is larger than you think and cars are overpriced right now which makes a brand new car you can import for less than 15k mind-boggling. Additionally, the barebones nature of the car is appealing for its low-tech nature. Add that it’s a Toyota, known for reliability.

Maybe you don’t see it as a desirable car because it isn’t to your tastes, but the world doesn’t revolve around you.

Have they released footage of Trump's testimony? All I have seen is commentary.

This seems cool and I want to try it out. It would be cool if you had the option to turn it on or off.

Why this is a feature like this important? There are people who feel that EV’s lack the soul and/or personality of ICE cars. There was a recent YouTube video I watched where one of the hosts described a tesla as being designed by “someone who thinks driving is a chore.” This feature would provide him and the people like him with EV’s that have personality.

I can totally see this feature enabling simulation of different power curves like a V8, V6, I4, with and without turbo’s and superchargers. I can also see the car tuner community designing their own torque curves which would be amazing. We can already adjust ICE car torque curves over the internet, why not EV’s?
