They in no way ignored that they did anything wrong.

It says the companies won’t roll over, won’t admit liability, and won’t hand out a penny that isn’t mandated by a judge or jury. For the owners of those cars, it paints an even more disappointing picture: The company that sold you your car clearly doesn’t have your best interests in mind.

You want 8-bit games to make a comeback? Because this is how you get 8-bit games to make a comeback.

Take comfort, Tesla engineers. Cybertruck owners are eventually going to get sick of being laughed at and get rid of them, putting an end to this absurd design. We don’t blame you, you were only following (shitty) directions.

Brilliant! Take your star.

Meh. Let em die. Uber is now more expensive than a cab where I live anyway. What used to be a $24 ride to the airport is now roughly $46, while a cab has always been $32. It was nice while it lasted, but worker’s rights are more important to me than bargain basement prices.

It wouldn’t be AV Club if the writing wasn’t uninformative, incorrect, and poorly researched. Can’t wait until they fire the writers and rebrand as “AI Club.”

What did you expect? Gizmodo’s writers are far fewer talented than other publications.

No, Rich, that’s YOUR implication. You lose all credibility at “seems to be”, which is code for “I take this to mean X, therefore FIDE

Wow, that’s actually pretty big news! I hadn’t seen that come across the wire. Good on them for taking a stand! My only hope is that Yasser also cuts ties with the club and continues providing commentary for Chess.com. He’s a riot.

Fair enough! Have at it then!

Attacking people who aren’t as educated on a topic as you are is just as harmful as being a dummy.

I understand your reaction, but chess is a big deal in a lot of countries. Players are celebrities. Prize purses are collectively in the millions. It’s not a huge deal in the US, but these decisions can have a massive ripple effect around the world.

There is no mens division in chess, only an open division (anyone can play) and a womens division. I made a separate comment here on why a womens division exists. It’s not because of mental capability, it’s about overcoming prejudice, sexism, growing the game, encouraging women to play, and backwards, third-world

For those criticizing chess having a women’s division, here is a little bit on why chess has an “Open” and a “Women’s” division.

The Open division is for anyone, meaning men, women, trans, etc.anyone can play in the Open. (Famously, Judit Polgar, arguably the greatest female chess player of all time, only played in
