That’s true.  But in this case, I’m going to also assume that Airbnb can afford much better lawyers than a bunch of whiny alt-righters.

“...the entire sphere of public discourse has been consolidated under several giant, opaque and ultimately private companies?”

I don’t think they (the white supremacists) have a case. They’re not the ones operating the hotel, and so the public conveyance laws don’t really apply to them, it would seem. And there is nothing illegal about internet-based platforms kicking people off for being racist or anti-Simetic - Facebook, YouTube, Twitter,…

“What happened to first amendment rights?”

I’ve been using the Rite-Aid “brand” of those tablets, which are the same as Polident (or some brand like that) but cheaper, for about four years now, and never had an issue. My dentist actually recommended it. There are also brands that sell night-guard cleaner, which is specifically for night-guards, and i’ve used…

She very much deserves to win the lawsuit, if the school board is so monumentally ignorant and prejudiced that they don’t immediately re-hire her / undo the firing. It’s a woman’s breasts, for christ sake, close to 100% of us were suckling on them for a year or so after we were born, and as others have pointed out,…

As far as Tesla - no company lasts forever, and most don’t last a half century. In the nearer term, though, I think Tesla will start to appear more “normal” over time, except for the direct sales model. Then again, as more new companies embrace that (Rivian, for example), that too might begin to appear normal…

It's pretty good for some spam, but it doesn't auto-ignore calls that spoof my area code. I love the "screen call" thing, though, it keeps me from ever having to actually listen to the spam.

Long ago, I thought Ivory Liquid dish-washing detergent (in the curvey white bottle) looked just like cum. I haven’t seen it (the Ivory Liquid) in decades though. Found it:

Same for me, because I didn't buy my phone thru Verizon ! it's a Pixel 2 XL, from Google). Very annoying

Wat about a BMW X5? It’s big enough that a (cramped) 3rd row has been an option, it’s taller than a wagon, and fun to drive (for a CUV).

“Obamacare is one of the main causes of the push to automation.”

These sorts of techniques are really cool, and produce useful results, but I’m impatient for the upcoming generation of extremely large optical telescopes that are currently under construction (or in late planning stages) to be built and operational and for the James Webb telescope to finally launch, so we can…

I’m not typically a huge fan of the way Facebook has run their business or allowed false and hateful content to proliferate, and this is not a silver bullet by any means, but credit where credit is due - they didn’t *have* to do this, and yet they did, so this is progress.

If the list is retroactive (like, I did smoke pot in the past, but don't anymore, etc), I'm an 11.  Otherwise, maybe a 6 or 7.

Also, “Trump Lovers” and “The President” is currently a bit redundant...

On the plus side, Trump Supporters, Senators and Scientologists are apparently getting their just deserts.

I think it would be nice to have this as a backup option, in case you somehow lock your keys in the car, or misplace them or something. I agree that, for me at least, it's unlikely to be my primary way of getting into my car.

Hmmm... 330 miles is roughly 515 km, could this have been the author forgetting to convert to miles?

Aren’t there some car touch-screen systems that let you use a knob w/button to navigate the menus, but still have a touchscreen for inputting things like addresses, or for if you’re stopped?
