Like I said, hope you’re right. But the point was, that’s the way the people who are making it happen are thinking. There are good points to be made on the other side, but nobody is making them.

I see where you’re coming from, I’m not normally given to tinfoil hats, but you should go to cspan.com and watch the hearing. It really was remarkable.

Don’t be silly. Teleportation won’t be widely available until at least 2035.

Someone needs to pop it.

I hope you’re right. Not about the stupid part, but that I don’t live to see it. One of the senators asked a prescient question, albiet in the context of a smaller point, but he asked: “What does this mean for the future of mobility?”

Lyft was only one witness, Google was there spouting the same crap, as was Delphi and several others. The idea works like this, robo-cars are safer than human driven cars (an unproven thesis, by my thinking, but everyone seems to eat it up), to the extent there are human drivers, they present a safety hazard to the…

No, you’re wrong. I’m informing my opinion with the words of the policymakers right this second. I’m trying to warn you, bro, but if you don’t want to listen, that’s alright. You’ll come around when it’s too late, I’m sure.

I don’t believe you. You have no idea what they’ll do. Are you even watching the hearing? A senator from Michigan just droned on about the massive public infrastructure investments that we need to make smart highways and cities to interact with the cars “as the human input and control in vehicles dissapates.”

And Cory Booker, of all people, is pushing against regulation of autonomous car testing.

So C-Span is running a hearing on self-driving cars right now. The Lyft representative is blowing a bunch of smoke up everyone’s butt about technology protecting everyone’s privacy (and turning the hearing into an infomercial for Lyft). The paradigm seems to have shifted from regular cars with self-driving features to…

How has her record been spotty regarding their interests?

Ohh. Another EDSBS fan on Jalop? I wonder how many of us there are here.

That’s not being particularly charitable to Jim.

He flirted. She bit his head off. Sounds familiar.

Ok, dick pics are almost always wrong, wrong, wrong, unless in some kind of relationship where such a thing is at least to close-to-expected, but she sends them to MOMS?!?

Wait! I thought gawker told me that Maklemore sucked on an artistic basis and this piece, specifically, should be ignored as silly tripe.

His comments show that he is ignorant. Criminal? Fuck, we’d have to lock up close to half of the U.S. population.

“The worst part is that for every day that goes by where a clear and plausible strategy is not established, it will be much tougher for the next Commander-in-Chief to do so.”

Didn’t he dodge the second one, too?

I like the flying drop-kick the monkey lays on the dude after he tries to throw dirt in its eyes. It’s just a big cloud of dust with a monkey-shadow flying through it and BAM! He’s on his ass again.
