Refusing to buy from someone because of their expressed morals/politics isn’t pointless.

I didn’t say it was a ringing endorsement. I said refusing to buy because of Musk’s politics is rather pointless. If you want to avoid them because you think the company is headed down the tubes, that’s a different and wholly valid reason not to buy.

He doesn’t care. He doesn’t have to. He’s rich. He literally just told everybody he’s not interested in making cars anymore and his company isn’t about making cars. People who think they are sticking it to Musk by boycotting Tesla cars are just denying themselves a good product. And buying one puts money in a whole…

He’s the CEO of a car company who just said he’s not interested in making cars anymore. Maybe he really IS Tony Stark after all! :)

The personality part is basically what I said. Trump is projecting this strongman image that is undoubtedly swaying people who just assume he’s going to be this tough guy leader.

It’s probably also on brand that he’s engaging in a copyright violation even using that photo on a commercial product since it belongs to the Associated Press, I think.

I am more disappointed and disgusted with people in general than I am with Trump specifically. Trump could be as addled as Biden is at this point, and probably is, and it won’t matter simply because he does it all more energetically than Biden. He projects strength while Biden seems frail. It is 100% appearance over…

Musk and Trump are very similar and their actions even makes sense once you accept that the only thing either of them cares about is themselves. It’s everyone else that has lost their minds trusting either of them. Trump is only interested in being president to the extent it keeps his grift rolling and himself out of…

QA can’t always find every bug because it can’t perfectly replicate the environment the SW may be running in everywhere in the world.  But even so, I am not sure why this outage is so widespread.  Did they really update that many systems all at the same time?  Why do that instead of rolling out gradually.  Or WAS this…

It is significantly more dumb than the current EV tax credit. The US already spends around $800 billion subsidizing the oil and gas industry. EV subsidies are more like $15B.

If four years of “stop the steal” taught GOP operatives anything, it’s that they really CAN say anything they want and their loyal base that craves a dictatorship will buy it, evidence-free.

Right? That list of grievances on the judiciary page is pathetic. Not a one of them is illegal. I especially like the one accusing GARM of “trying to get a Donald Trump campaign video marked ‘misinformation’”.

If Trump’s first (and hopefully only) term did anything, it was highlighting how much of our country has been running all this time on etiquette rather than actual laws. I don’t know how many times I asked, “Can he DO that? I thought that was illegal!” only to find out, nope, it was always just the case that nobody,…

It doesn’t sound like this is even about breach of contract in the first place. If it was that simple, he’d have sued them immediately. It’s not at all clear what crime is actually being alleged here because there’s nothing illegal about privately lobbying corporations to change their ad policies. It would only be…

I think he just loses interest in something pretty much as soon as he’s introduced it into the world.

It will run you $30,

The nurse said they’d pray and when that didn’t work the Doctor said it was up to God.

I did get a kick out of her complaining that her colleagues haven’t shown compassion to women for the past nine months.

Just because you don’t agree with something doesn’t mean you have to draw battle lines.

I don’t even know what embarrasses a GOP politician anymore. I bet he gains points with GQP voters just for fighting “woke” Disney no matter how badly they’ve pulled his pants down in front of the world.
