I love that Tesla has so many IT problems that an “account deactivated” message doesn’t even warrant a second thought. This is the company that Musk claims is more about software than it is about building cars.

“I usually check my emails while on my autopilot commute to work”

From what I’ve heard, pretty much all FAANG company layoffs in California in the past couple years are: turn in your laptop, all company access blocked, you are still officially an employee for 60 days with pay/benefits, and then you are laid off on the last day. This is what the WARN act forces them to do.

“Brutal. That, folks, is why ya need a union.” Yep, but real brutality is not getting severance at all, which is how it is for plenty of US workers. This is high profile though, so none would be big news, but if they thought they could get away with it they would.

I choose not to support her because she seems to go out of her way to cause harm to a vulnerable group of people. I encourage others to boycott her work as well. If what she’s doing isn’t bullying, to you, and what I’m doing IS... not sure what planet you’re on.

No, the manufacturers are run by shortsighted people who chase quarterly profits. The government didn’t have much at all to do with it.

I believe Stephen Hawking pointed out that based on human history, when a more technologically advanced culture meets a less advanced one, things do not work out well for the latter.

But what if some of these things are actually visitors from other planets, or maybe the unexplored depths of our own oceans? What then, federal government, if we aren’t prepared for any eventuality, we could fall victim to our own hubris.

His argument last night was that the only sensors humans have to help them drive are their eyes, so Tesla only using cameras is obviously the correct move. And with logic that sound, who could argue?

He just sort of predicts behavior correctly in many cases by really getting to know the people involved. What do you think?

Exactly. He does not bend the wind to his will. He only studies it.

As a motorcyclist in Tesla-crowded San Francisco, this is a real concern. It’s one thing for paying Tesla customers opting in to kill and injure themselves beta testing Elmo’s half baked BS, but the rest of us who know better also share these roads and absolutely did NOT sign up for that.

Now imagine that, get this, capitalism doesn't imbue it's devotees with rationality. It'll save you a lot of headaches about this show and real life.

Gary! (unless there was also a Ken vault I didn’t discover).

Ron Perlman to play the lead Super Mutant in Season 2. You heard it here first.

In Fallout 4 one settlement is a mansion, where the owners survived in basement. All of them were ghoulefied, and the youngest son who apparently knew to expect this was initially stoked because he figured it meant they would all survive the post-nuclear world. However, while he retained his faculties, his family went…

Unanswered mysteries: what the hell Moldaver is doing in the future

My read was that she wasn’t necessarily feral, but had been basically so burned and half destroyed by the explosion that this was all that was left of her. Ghouls basically run on zombie logic, so if they don’t take care of themselves like Cooper obviously has, they physically degrade into a mess, but the radiation…

and, most pressingly, no Ron Perlman cameo. Really?!

The big difference is that Patrick doesn’t have a personality (this is overly inflammatory given that I like Schitt’s Creek and Patrick but he mostly exists as an object in David’s orbit while Ben has clear wants, needs, and relationships outside of Leslie)

I love Ben & Leslie, but to me the greatest sitcom couple ever is Virginia and Burt on Raising Hope (Martha Plimpton and Garrett Dillahunt)
