...this combination scenario makes me wonder if the stop-gap solution to autonomous vehicles is a secondary aerial input for the system. It’s pretty obvious the methods currently being employed don’t reliably give the AI enough of the right information needed to safely operate. A small drone feeding it overhead data…

And a PoC would have been dragged through the mud by the media, every possible action he’d ever taken since birth spun into any kind of criminal nature imaginable.

Honestly, this sort of thing needs to be made illegal. Either the company is doing well enough for ALL employees to get raises/bonuses, or it isn’t and NOBODY gets raises/bonuses. And if a company is doing so poorly it has do fire people, nobody is getting a bonus or raises.

Exactly the problem. I don’t begrudge the family the settlement, but I *DO* wish it came out of the coffers of the people and organizations protecting the bad officers who cause all these problems in the first place. THEY are the ones who should be feeling this pain, not the average tax payer who, at best, had nothing…

Delusional idiots don’t stop being delusional idiots just because someone slapped their hands. And Dash absolutely qualifies as a delusional idiot. Either she was deluded and idiotic enough to actually believe the garbage she was spewing or deluded and idiotic enough to think she could spew that garbage without consequ…

And now that it’s publicly traded, with those legal obligations, the downward spiral into predatory, destructive (and self-destructive) practices can begin in earnest.

Wake me when being ‘woke’ gains a history of widespread, systemic oppression, a body count measured in the millions, and repeated instances of genocidal attacks on white people....

...civil disorder...

Oh, they believe in democracy. They just don’t believe in equality. It might seem a minor quibble, but it’s the only thing separating many Democrats from Republicans. And they’re both awful, but while the Republicans own and revel in their awfulness, those Democrats still cling to the facade of being ‘better.’

...politicians who try to enact laws that are a blatant violation of the constitution need to be hit with penalties severe enough to apply the appropriate chilling effect to stop this kind of crap.

It’s called ‘accomplices after the fact.’ They aided fugitives by pinning the blame on other innocent individuals. Any way you slice it, they belong behind bars. And given that this is a capital murder case, there is no statue of limitations, so I should expect the criminally corrupt prosecutors to be hauled out of…

Because Police State — all arguments are invalid. And that’s how witless Republicans answer, despite the same people claiming that America ISN’T a police state. So I guess America is in a superposition of being both and neither at the same time...until a POC makes some delicate white snowflakes ‘uncomfortable’ or…

And on what *legitimate* grounds can such a decree be made? Because I wasn’t aware a judge *HAD* the authority to make such decisions.

Definitely. But you have to approach that in such a way that doesn’t simply engender even further hostility and violence, or you just set off a destructive spiral of reprisals.

Oh, believe me, that wasn’t lost on me either....

While I’m not disagreeing, an important lesson we should have learned from our endless battles in the middle east is that making martyrs only *compounds* the problems it was supposed to solve. Having him disappear into a lifeless black hole for the rest of his life, utterly alone, while the rest of the world *KNOWS*…

...god, I SOOOOO want to see that man Gitmo’d for his role in the terrorist attack on the US Capital. Yes, along with everyone who crossed the barricades, but him ESPECIALLY.

As per usual, those things which Republicans fear-monger about loudest are the things *THEY* are doing.

From people who believe in angels, God, and Jesus. Violent white extremists are *MORE* real than any of the other things they ‘believe’ in.

I feel for the people, and hope they find a way to get things done, but *THIS* is what a Republican government looks like in a crisis — completely unprepared. They nickle and dime utilities and services into complete systemic collapse in the name of being ‘fiscally responsible’ even while any savings they might be…
