Nah she’s playing with fire. Maybe she “don’t talk gud “, but this is a favorite talking point of deniers. This is exactly the scenario of dismissing BLM concerns with “all lives matter”. Technically true but offensively misleading

Is she right? Sure, anyone can be racist, no demographic has a monopoly only on that. All lives should matter

But she’s absolutely wrong to bring it up in this scenario, it’s another case of “both sides the same”, or a what aboutism. She’s effectively dismissing their concerns

What protests are you going to? The overwhelming majority of people I know who goto protests are white and no one has had such a complaint (yes I don’t have a diverse acquaintance group). Yes I’m white Middle Aged Christian male, ticking all the boxes except “sociopath”, and I’ve always felt welcome

I especially note the BLM protests from a few years ago, as predominantly darker skin people, but I still never felt anything but welcome

That’s not a typical occurrence.

The reality is that most people have insurance coverage, even if the cost is excessive, paperwork is excessive and there are too many coverage exceptions. And most people never encounter corporate death panels.

This is yet another “us vs them” scenario. Enough voters can say “at least I have better coverage than ….” That there is less pressure to fix it and too many people afraid of losing what they have.

Personally I have decent enough insurance (while I’m employed) that I would likely lose on universal coverage. However I’m aware of the total cost to myself and my employer, which is entirely obscene, and I realize it’s contingent on being employed, in an industry known for regular layoffs. I’m part of the problem since I’m “good enough” to not push for better, but also the solution since I would vote for universal coverage because I’m not a sociopath nor an idiot

We’ve learned to expect a huge range of gibberish, but please tell me this is @[email protected]

Realistically, not only do I not want an 8k tv, but I might not get a tv at all, if I had to do it today. We rarely watch tv anymore. The brainrot is the same but we’re much more likely to use individual screens

I want a dumb tv with the price and and specs of a smart tv. Less is more

If any of them are actual lawyers, the bar association also needs to take action, or be complicit. Lying in public statements , defamation, and abusing the legal system for personal gain should not be actions they condone

If you have a concern different from the thread, please start another post.

Yes the biggest pilot customer used it to haul lightweight snack items but als yes the claimed fully loaded to the legal limit tests

And an ai company with no ai product

I don’t see how. This is just a continuation of what he was already doing, facilitated by a board of his friends and relatives.

Even worse I have to say I’m not totally against it. All too often ceos get excessive pay regardless of their results. While I haven’t looked in detail not at the history, the claim is these are only for Tesla meeting some extremely ambitious milestones and the payment is stock. Certainly his previous ridiculous allay was in stock and Tesla had some extraordinary growth. If the stock doesn’t go up, then he should never receive that wealth

If it’s truly contingent on the company growth and the board doesn’t throw him a life preserver, that’s not entirely bad. Excessive yes. Extremely excessive. Excessively excessive. But more execs need to have their wealth gated on actual results

Probably, but we also need to take every chance to reduce unnecessary plastic in the environment

Seems like the headline and article itself are missing the main point

printer cartridges that can’t be refilled or that don’t have a take-back program offered by the vendor.

It may be barely mentioned but I read this are requiring a program to take back cartridges

A little bit of lube and even the crustiest gaping maw seems warm and inviting?

“All publicity is good publicity”? No one is going to forget his name

It’s even possible that judge is doing what he thinks is right

It’s another crime they’re guilty of. Hopefully a continued buildup of evidence will help some true believers see the light, but more importantly it is yet another thing they can be charged with and is harder to cover up.

The court system will never be immediate or truly dramatic, but as long as the wheels of justice continue to grind forward, however slowly, there is hope

Yeah, I don’t get it, why is Putin telling agent Krasnov to benefit China so much?

To take myself as an example ….

• all smart home stuff is arguably a gimmick. None of it is necessary, but for some of us it can add value or interest.
• the resolution is plenty for many applications
• I always liked the idea of a moving ticker for status or info, like the stock ticker. I assume this could
• I always wanted a clock large enough to read without my glasses, without all the crap on the cheap ones, or maybe configurable to my choice of crap
• I’m gradually putting together a house status alert system, and this is so much more expressive than the colored LEDs I’m looking at so far
• this is so much more interesting, more of a statement than a simple screen
• it’s local. We’re not locked into some god awful vendor portal
• someone was creative, had an idea, packaged it nicely, and offered it to the world. I want to support that, encourage more of it

I’m not sure if I’ll get one but it’s definitely tempting

I saw the video where the “officer” held their “non-lethal” weapon right up to the face of a non-violent protester and fired. This was clearly intentional and should be treated as such. There is no legitimate complaint about qualified immunity (and no, claiming total immunity doesn’t mean that is legal) or that he didn’t know. This was intent to cause major harm for no reason other than someone disagreed. It was horrible and any actual law and order would impose significant jail time and reparations

1. Not getting off the sofa. Video doorbell pops up on my watch, no matter where I happen to be, so I can immediately decide whether it can interrupt what I’m doing.
2. Shut the hell up. Sometimes I turn off the chimes so I’m not bothered by yet another door to door sales drone. But I still have my watch in case whoever is at the door is legitimate
3. Intercom. My kid sometimes want to tell me something without coming inside
4. History. Yes, sometimes I want to scroll back through all motion trigger s in front of my door
5. Wildlife. Minor feature but it is occasionally fascinating to see what animals amble in front of my door. I’m urban so it’s limited but we have turkeys and coyotes
