Exactly this. Which is why they have moved to the soft targets of the pre-security lines where people are the most vulnerable.

More security theater at it’s finest. We’re not any safer than pre-9/11, it’s just that for the most part, terrorists aren’t bothering to hijack planes anymore because that tactic isn’t effective. Pre-9/11, passengers and crew were told to cooperate with hijackers because they usually wanted some material thing or to…

In a round-about way, it will... eventually. If first world nations are a model, hungry people buy food and nothing else, so they make children. Once fed, they instead start climbing maslow’s hierarchy. First they get food shelter, then big screen TVs, then college, then a bigger TV, then eventually try to make the…

I got on fb in 2004. It’s not the ‘olds’ that ‘overtook’ fb that are posting all the baby pics... it’s people my age who were on it from day 1 who are posting all the baby pics. GET OFF MY LAWN.

Can we all agree to work together to not let the word “olds” make it into the lexicon? This is the real story.

I’m a sorta-old (39). I understand what Snapchat does and how it works... but I’m still mystified by Snapchat. More specifically, the fucking point. I already have a way to send people I know photos, via SMS, and I don’t really care if they disappear afterwards because I’m not sending them pictures of my dick... and,…

“Proves” is indeed a strong word, unless you yourself have already made up your mind out of thin air.

You would think after her first three or four articles condemning all forms of automobiles and getting shit on by the commentariat for it that she would rethink writing more articles about them.

or logic...or truth...or common sense.

Alissa does not let facts get in the way of her crusade against cars.

This seems like an article in search of a connection. Tesla has outright said the car didn’t “see” the tractor trailer. How would a fully-autonomous vehicle have fared any better? The only thing that might have happened then is the occupant might have seen the impending collision and had no choice but to wait to…

From the description (and from looking at the site on google street view) I get the opposite impression. This may have been a routine instance of a truck entering the highway where an accident would normally be avoidable.

Fatal Tesla Crash Proves Full Autonomy Is the Only Solution for Self-Driving Cars...

I think it's important to note that this appeared to be an unavoidable accident in any circumstance. What I've read seems to indicate the trucker pulled out in front of the Tesla. Traveling at highway speeds, it may not have been possible for anyone to avoid the crash.

Nail on the head right there.

Counterpoint: OK Go is great and this sucks.

My son had one of those back in 99, he was about 5 at the time. After about a minute of watching him lick that tongue, I paid him $5 to let me throw it away.

He’s Han Solo the White now.

But if he’s dead how is he going to be in it?

I use MacKeeper. I installed it after a web site told me my performance was slow. That was very nice of the web site.
