People talk about Icarus flying too close to the sun. Motherfuckers are recreating it in labs 😂

Uber CEO balks after a reporter tells him the cost of his 2.9-mile Uber ride: 'Oh my God. Wow.'
The fact that a 2.9 mi car ride costs $50 with a tip is fucking insane. This country is absolutely backwards when it comes to transportation. Everything is nearly car centric. Minimal options for alternatives.

Reddit user alleges California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) non-compliance/violation; and finds it difficult to delete posts and content on Reddit
Decided to expand on the original video and include a transcription of the events in the video. Hope this helps our visually impaired folks.
Personally, I find this disgusting. Hope Reddit gets litigated up the ass.

Microsoft accidentally leaks internal tool that can enable hidden Windows 11 features
The bug bash quests can be found in the Windows Feedback Hub, and partaking in the bug bash often concludes with a badge in the Feedback Hub that acknowledges your participation.
Imagine doing free QA for a multibillion dollar corporation. I hate Microsoft so much.

Apple Plans to Stop Providing Customer Support on Twitter and YouTube
Would be nice if companies can spin up their own (lemmy|mastodon|...) instances and push out releases there. No more "blue check marks" to verify authenticity or relying on the platform to be stable. If it comes from @public.apple.com, then it's guaranteed to be authentic.

5X upgrade in bounty from $10K offered by crime stoppers. Investigation must be drying up. Probably be up to 6 figures by end of month

Donald Trump Arrest Time Revealed as Airspace Closed for 'VIP' in Georgia
Given that a conviction does not stop this person from running as a candidate for POTUS. I wish the media would stop giving this guy air time.
It’s all he wants. He didn’t show up to the GOP debate yet somehow still got equal mentions in mainstream media.
Even local news channels airing his prerecorded shit. Like bro, I want the traffic and weather updates. Not this bs

Elon Musk Stormed Into the Tesla Office Furious That Autopilot Tried to Kill Him
Reply in thread
Counter point: If I didn’t hear how badly he runs his businesses, or how bad his company’s products are. I would have easily bought one or more of his products.
I have backed out of Tesla pre-orders because of the bad publicity, many reports of bad build quality, and terrible business decisions.
If this was a puff piece, I honestly wouldn’t have bothered posting it.

Tesla Cybertruck sales collapse, company accepts trade-ins with extreme depreciation
Good thing I plan on driving mine until I die. There’s no point in trading in/upgrading with that low of an offer.
I would be surprised if an incel camino lasts 3-4 years of regular driving.

Minneapolis mayor vetoes minimum wage bill for Lyft, Uber drivers: ‘An inexcusable betrayal of Minneapolis workers’
Wow, he negotiated a contract with Uber only. Lyft drivers fucked. Drivers will probably flee to Uber for higher guarantees. Will Lyft compete to retain their talent or continue to pay the minimum? Or will they drop out of the city entirely and leave Uber as the de facto monopoly in drive sharing?
Mayor pretty much gave a middle finger to its people with the veto. I wonder how much the mayor was wined and dined to ignore 8 months of work by the city and consultants

Google lays off employees working on its voice assistant
Seems like all Fortune 500 companies are laying off 5-10% of their staff every year to pump end of year report.
Have seen cuts across multiple industries. Not just tech.

NYC mayor says suspect identified in UnitedHealth executive's murder, NY Post reports
Sounds like a desperate tactic to get perpetrator to make mistakes (ie, tickets bought hastily to leave country). Sudden plans to leave the country or travel domestically are often flagged by the feds for follow up. The practice was supposedly put on hold [1] but wouldn’t surprise me if it’s used in situations like this.
In my opinion, police wouldn’t bother releasing this statement. If it was real, investigation would continue and the next statement/story would be “we have the person in custody”.
I call bullshit.

Trump drops 6 points in post-debate GOP poll
This guy could be 20 points down in some random poll. I’m showing up to the polls against him.
