This comic was published less than ten years ago, and it's wild how obsolete it is
Computer vision was just popping off five years after that, so I would say that it is prescient.

The only ‘new’ feature that would excite me enough to buy an iPhone 15 is USB-C
Just be aware that they're selling models that are USB 2.0 with the USB-C interface.

who would support a nuclear power plant near their town/city
I would. Hell yeah! I honest-to-god want an SMR in my actual neighborhood just to have direct heat from a radiator water loop during the winter.

Owning land with a livable structure on it, and keeping it to the standards of living in is a job.

This is complete bullshit. The storage is fine, to the point that there isn't a problem. Even as temporary as it is, there is so little of the high-level nuclear waste that we can use our "temporary" storage for thousands of years before it gets to the point where we have to mark off, say, a football stadium to keep it.
You're fear-mongering out of your own ignorance.

DeSantis says as US president he would eliminate IRS, DoE (Energy & Education) & DoC(Commerce)
He would be so assassinated, so quickly. The IRS does not fuck around. Neither does the Department of Education.

Lyft’s new feature lets women and non-binary riders request their driver’s gender

So it's reasonable to think that if your driver is a male, you will be harassed (and that if your driver is a female, you will not)? That doesn't enable misandric bigotry in any way whatsoever. I mean, everybody knows that men are the ones who cause problems and women are the ones who suffer them.

All of its weapons are on the ventral side so it always fires at a subtle downward angle.

Steam Games Made with Unity
Can prospective developers use engines like Id Tech 3 or Unreal 2 commercially without paying?

We don't have the money
They could if any of them made decent products. Out of all of the products that all of those companies offer, the only things worth half a shit are Ford's F-150 and GM's Vortec engine line-up.

Right. And don't forget to address the issue of them all being differently situated as a starting condition. You'll have to kneecap some and put others on wheels.

New Mexico governor issues order suspending the right to carry firearms in public across Albuquerque

The supreme court is wrong about 2A. Laws and regulations are infringements, which the constitution specifically prohibits.

Let me try to explain:
The 2nd Amendment has two clauses, a prefatory clause and an operative clause. The operative clause is the one that secures the right, and the prefatory clause informs it. However, not being the operative clause, it's ultimately not anything from which rights are derived, nor restricted. The bill of rights wasn't written to restrict the rights of the people.
The prefatory clause is, "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State...," which informs the reader as to why the latter exists. So, you can argue until you're blue in the face about how "well regulated militia" was intended, but ultimately, its immaterial as it's not part of the operative clause.
"... the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." This is the operative clause and the only one you really need to be concerned about. The people have the right to keep and bear arms, and it shall not be infringed. That is very easy to understand. It's hard to like if you are a violent criminal and prefer that your violence and violations of the rights of others go uncontested and unprevented, and you don't want to get shot. For everybody else, this is not only perfectly acceptable and necessary, it's intuitive.

It's Official: Autoworkers Are on Strike
This is good news. I hope they never come to an agreement and GM, Ford, and Chrysler are forced to quit dumping their garbage all over American streets, and all the workers get new jobs being paid what they're worth (which is substantially less than what they're being paid now).

Fearing for your safety from relational aggression from women is completely rational. Women are just as aggressive as men — it just takes a different form.
