From what I’ve read they don’t disagree Their pay and benefits are in line with industry standards in that country. The workers are striking over the principle of the thing. They want the collective agreement typical in their country to guarantee those benefits. Depending on where you stand that can seem selflessly…

It would really fuck over our heavy lift to orbit capacity. Take the rest but SpaceX is, at this point, necessary to the US space program.

Let AIs race cars. They have no gender, race or other attributes to argue or insult one another about. There wouldn’t have to be any safety considerations beyond those for spectators. With the proper programming they could be far more competitive than humans as computers do not feel fear or care if they are destroyed.…

Let’s not suck the cocks of the ultra-wealthy too hard, even if those penises are only metaphorical. You have no idea what that lady is like in person and never will. You only know the image her PR team has crafted, an image massively boosted by her having divorced one of the richest men in the world. This makes it…

This is an incredibly ugly reason to be put against the wall and shot when the revolution comes. Seriously, the orange one looks like something The Tiger King would drive if he had ever financially recovered from all that mess. And I imagine I’d rather hang out with that creepy meth-head than whatever pair of assholes…

You get that they solved a software issue, right? They didn’t hire hackers to work on the mechanical elements of the train. A different company performed the actual repairs and hired the hackers, likely to get the computer to recognize those repairs without inputting some type of corporate authenticity certification.…

I apologize for being long winded, I’m a fan of the Socratic method and I often forget that method was so annoying the Athenians eventually poisoned old Socrates to get him to shut up, lol. I also did not realize that you were Black so I understand that this isn’t a thought game or intellectual exercise for you like…

I don’t care if you ever listen to his music. I can name one song of his but only because one of my employees has it on a playlist constantly and I eventually asked who it was. I guess what I’m picking up on is a tone of hostility either about him or the situation generally. But you’re not being hostile to me and I…

So you’re shooting the middle between my “PR ambiguity” and my “too dumb for anything else” ideas. See, this is why it’s necessary to elaborate on and interpret statements like that. Because different people can read them and come to different conclusions and discussion helps us resolve or at least understand those…

Blah, blah, blah, until you post a pic of your license, professional accreditations and a selfie with today’s newspaper you are a liar. Even if your information is correct you gleaned it from the internet and are trying to pass it off as expertise. The duration of this pathetic con only makes your childish attempts at…

3. No, you didn't. You are a liar who is lying to win an argument on the internet. Thus an incredibly petty and small liar. Do not come online and make claims of professional knowledge unless you are prepared to disclose your IRL identity so that your claims can be verified. Especially ones so incredibly convenient to…

The man is the public face of a record deal, I would be very surprised if he goes out and just says whatever’s on his mind at events and interviews. What I’m wondering is whether his PR team thinks the “Aw, shucks” country boy act will let them get away with being ambiguous, if it’s a cynical ploy not to alienate the…

What’s wrong with “accuser”? It’s an accurate description and is essentially what the word “prosecutor” means. Also, what would be a better term? “Victim” by itself seems to presume guilt. “Alleged victim” would be accurate but people already mock “allegedly” so it would get the same treatment. I don’t have a strong…

Yeah, the dude’s not articulate but what I translated it to was “I regret engaging in the bigoted act of using a racial slur and have learned about the harm words can cause regardless of the intent behind them. I would like to point out that my use of the word was ironic and that I do not now nor have I ever supported…

What is a non metal sledgehammer? A polo mallet? Rock on a stick?

Is it just commonly known that Combs orders hits on people or whatever that phrase means? As bad as what he's accused of here is it seems like attempted murder, presumably with an explosive device, is even more serious.

All of the psychoactive chemicals in shrooms can be synthesized cheaper than you can grow shrooms and extract them. This is an attempt to start an organic magic mushroom business, not a scientific endeavor. When these substances come into common medical use you will be given pills, syrups or injections. Not told to…

I wonder what's so special about the steer by wire system? I've never used one but most people seem to complain that they feel dead. I'd guess it's variable for the precision they talked about. Mountain climbing you can feel the rocks just fine through vehicle so the steering wheel is probably not as important. Anyway…

I imagine some brief thought of being called out on Twitter, for complaining about mistreatment at the hands of the police, without acknowledging those who suffer from it much more passed through her head. Which is interesting because she has or pretends to have that level of self-awareness at the same time as she is…

If they actually act anything like they do on camera Hammond is the only one I could spend a few hours with and not get pretty irritated by something they’re doing. Slow and distracted and boorish and egotistical are funny on screen but get old quick IRL.
