A rich and powerful person talking crap about other rich and powerful people. Excuse me if I don't pay attention.

It's really not. You don't have to like everything someone does to support them or accept their support. Purity tests are toxic, and it is a large problem on the left side of the aisle.

People ditching Teslas because they don't like Elon is political though. If you want to nut-pick between the two sides, we are going to be here a long time.

Many people use marijuana for sleep. Are you really sure no one has ever fallen asleep at the wheel due to marijuana use? It seems like a bold claim.

I don't think that's what is holding ev back. They need to put more into battery research. They are too heavy, charge too slow, and lose capacity in cold temps. In addition, I can't find a charger within 15 or 20 min of my ho

Id rather pay more and have no Chinese involvement. China is not your friend.

Anyone that says they won't buy a Tesla due to Elon's antics but will buy a Chinese EV is a hypocrite. China is a fascist state and no company does anything without party involvement.

If your stand-ups are a waste of time, consider making it less status-y and more collaborative. We lengthed ours a bit and encouraged more dialog rather than just focusing on the traditional 3 questions (what did you work on since last stan

Probably because they knew they could have it validated or invalidated for a small fee. The article explains this.

You have an extremely inaccurate and flawed understanding of conservativism. It's like you have concocted a view based on stereotypes and MSNBC editorials. Or are you deliberately misrepresenting?

Funny because I only drink coke if it comes from McDonald's. I always thought it tasted a little different but didn't know why.

Corporate users don't generally have control period. Keep your personal stuff away from the work laptop. TLS is useless on a machine you don't control.

The problem isn't hypothetical. It's literally happening in front of your eyes and you cheer it on.

Because there are allegations that he was peddling access to his father while his father was VP which may be backed up by emails on said laptop. Now that it's confirmed as genuine, an investigation needs to be done. We would demand not

Their content is basically advertising their brand to their fans though. Stephen King can announce a book tour or new title and reach millions of fans for a meager 20 bucks a month. On the flip side, I personally don't need to have cel

His long term outlook is very poor though. Judgements will likely be reduced (if Jones co-operates with the court this time) but he'll be lucky to have a home when everything is over.

Misinformation like that the Biden laptop is a Russian conspiracy?

So other high officials, and Putin's likely successor making threats means nothing? You're really splitting hairs here man.

Yeah you definitely missed it. See the link below. Kadyrov is also one of the likely successors to Putin. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-says-its-troops-...

You don't have to have a better plan to recognize a bad one. This is why we elect people to office, to come up with better plans!

Serious question: Do you really think that Russia poses that kind of threat? We've seen how woefully their military has performed. There is no chance that Russia would be able to start rolling through Europe the same way Germany did. E

Public transportation is an option in places that have the population density to support it. That is a huge part of the USA, not "fringe".

It seems like you have a characterized and absurdist view of libertarianism. Libertarianism is primarily about maximizing individual liberty, not the ultra-capitalist, amoral view you seem to have. Libertarians aren't anarchists (ignor

Even in the US, a lot of us didn't think Putin would actually invade since it looked like such a disasterous tactical move. It turns out a lot of people underestimated Russia's suicidal tendencies.

It's not like we're allowed to choose leaders from the population at large. We are generally stuck voting for the people that run for office. Quite often, there are few choices and none of them are very good.

Personally speaking, I stopped sharing opinions around these topics once I saw people losing their livelihoods for carrying the "wrong" opinions. I'll still discuss with close friends and family. My sister and I have some ver

I'm not a fan of comparisons like that because they don't account for cost or standard of living between counties, just raw exchange rates. It would be especially pronounced when including countries like India and Russia.
