Is it fixed price or price fixing? I wonder how this would be handled at a dealer level. Because right now, if dealers agree on a set price, the state AG would be drooling at the mouth.

I get there may be some reliability stereotypes floating around out there, but if I’m buying a sedan (or an SUV for that matter), and my choice comes down to Alfa and BMA - I’m buying the Alfa every time. On looks and sounds alone. And honestly - as a new car, with a warranty, how much do I really care about…

In fairness, what else is she supposed to talk about? Do you expect her to have actual ideas about how to address the real problems her constituents face?

Sheesh, I saw the lede image and thought it was the 2-series Sedan. Same basic shape, upsized and with fewer linear surfaces:

Jeez it looks so frumpy and generic. It looks tall, narrow, and bubbly rather than long, wide, low, and sleek. From the front, it looks straight up like a CUV.

I’m on Saxenda which is in this new class of drugs. If you try and ‘eat through it’ you will feel unwell (all kinds of things from heartburn to nausea to general discomfort). But if you take a person with a healthy weight and force feed them an unhealthy amount of food that is the same reaction they will have…

It’s a scary and interesting tool from the designer side of things.

Spraying a chemical with a bunch of effects into your body for just one of them is kind of how medicine works. For instance, a lot of today’s seizure medication started as antipsychotics, and several cancer medications began life as other therapeutics. This isn’t really as bad as it sounds - humans are shockingly hard…

Doctors: Here’s a vaccine to help prevent a deadly virus.
Americans: Fuck you, you’re trying to control us.

It’s not nausea-induced, although folks can get nausea from it as a side-effect.

or we could stop spending hundreds of billions of dollars on these drugs and focus on the root causes of obesity, ie. dogshit western diet, lack of diet education, high stress levels/overwork, lack of access to healthy food/food deserts, etc. but yay for science, i guess

Frankly im surprised it took him this long. Ive had nopped out at 30 people 

He’s got over 15 million subs on YouTube.  Your anecdotal lack of awareness of him does not negate his popularity.  

Kudos to Linus for having the maturity and humility to make this move. This right here is why a ton of game studios and tech companies crash and burn or end up with super toxic work cultures, because the founders were coders or designers or artists—people who don’t necessarily have the skillset, temperament, or actual…

Honstely? That’s the smartest thing he could’ve done.
When your passion develops into a big company like that and you’re still interested in doing what actually IS your passion, let someone else do the paperwork and administrative tasks.

Saw the headline, did a quick “WTF?” in my head and of course clicked immediately. Good stuff. 

And not a damn thing of value was lost this day.

“...but died anyway”

Why you gotta insult AI like that?

Strange antics we’ve seen from Seacrest in his many years on television, but this may take the cake.
