That's easy, their real belief is that they need to make as much money as possible. They're only pro-capitalism when it means making more money.

Well, you can't go and ingest the recent internet for AI training. Someone went and filled it with AI slop.

Yeah, everyone thought that Chinese cars would have terrible safety and quality, and then the Chinese cars actually turned up and they didn't. And the auto industry collectively made a whoopsie in their pants.

They're still pushing the narrative that Chinese cars are garbage though, because that and tariffs are all that they've got.

My BYD has a decent mix. It has a volume knob on the steering wheel which you can press to mute, and a previous/next button.

If you want to mess with your playlist though, you use the touchscreen. You're not supposed to do that sort of thing while driving.

"Hey, here's a useful thing that I recommend to people: "

It's basically a compliment

Fucking called it

Only some Pixel 4a phones are affected, apparently.

You know… the stuff they’re doing to some Pixel 4as - reducing charging speed, limiting charge level, etc - those are the same things EV manufacturers do when they’ve got known faulty batteries catching fire and are trying to work around the issue with software.

Doing it to certain devices which you can look up by IMEI, that sounds a lot like something you’d do if you had a certain batch of batteries catching fire and knew which devices had those batteries.

More than a year after end of life, Google suddenly decides “stability of battery performance” is such a big issue that they’re going to pay compensation to people? That isn’t suspicious at all.

No, I mean that if lots of developers are using Denuvo wrong, it's Denuvo's fault for being too difficult to use correctly or not providing enough support to developers.

Even if it's the developers using it wrong, if lots of developers are doing that then it's a fault with Denuvo.

If one car hits something, it's a problem with that car. If lots of cars keep hitting something, it's a problem with the road.

Okay, but if lots of games are doing it wrong, it's still Denuvo's fault.

You don't get CEOs and billionaires.

It's not enough to have more money than you could ever spend, you need to have all of the money.

Well, we have preferential voting, so you can vote for whoever you actually want and put both of those further down the ballot.

I mean, where I work we've hired every female applicant we've ever had and we're still at around 98% male. I'm not sure what we could even do about it.
