The political capital required for such an agenda is immense.

I don’t think you realize the level of Stockholm syndrome created by cars. When you spend more than 50k on a car, of course you don’t want the government to ban it or make it harder for you to justify your purchase.

Better products? What about geopolitical interests? If China doesn’t need oil then they don’t have to care if the strait of Hormuz is open or closed.

It’s a nice added benefit that they are better for the air, quieter and have more cargo space.

The Neo yellow color is awful. The 5C colors were fun because the plastic material made them look good.

You and I both know people, politicians, journalists would just move to Threads before they move to the fedi or Bluesky or any FOSS alternative.

They want an algorithm.

Flock in a few months: “introducing a license plate reader that doesn’t need to see the license plate. The magnet leaf you got on Amazon to get through red light cameras won’t be enough to fool our dystopian surveillance system anymore”

The amount of money that transited through “prediction markets” (I.e gambling platforms) is baffling.

522 million USD, with 25 million worth of bets placed on today, and that’s just one single prediction on one single site.

I can only imagine the Epstein class is making so much money off of these platforms since they literally control the news, meaning the outcome of each bet.

Only if it comes from the genocide region of France

I’d be more in favor of sending them to their favorite place on earth: Epstein’s island. No supplies, no running water, no help. Just a webcam and maybe a drone once in a while.

And your mother’s maiden name

Deport the sofa back to Sweden!

Sysadmin of a flash drive in some diplomat’s drawer?! I’ll take your money to be your sysadmin then.

iPhone users: Hold power and either volume up or down button for two seconds It will lock and ask for your pin, regardless if you shut down the phone or not.

Learn how to do it quickly and blindly, with your phone in your pocket.

Yeah, filthy rich people aren’t allowed to have a little fun anymore?

Bobby Tables grew up and bought a car?!

This isn’t even math, just convention on rules for order of operations.

You forgot that the induction glass top doesn’t get as hot because the heating happens in the pan. It’s safer if you have children and it is much easier to clean than gas or resistive electric.

Also there’s no open flame in your house, your kitchen rag won’t catch on fire by mistake.

Makes me hungry, back to the three basic states of man.

Tired, Horny, Hungry

Pick two.

That’s me at any given time.

They’d be like “I’d rather be autistic than vegan, worth it”
