Elon Musk supports eliminating voting rights for people without children
I support 100% tax over $1 billion. If you can't manage on a billion dollars, the rest would be better spent on others, anyway.

I always thought the whole circles concept was genius, and it annoys me that nobody has tried to replicate it.

A $20k electric truck with manual windows and no screens? Meet Slate Auto

Exactly my two issues.
I was so excited for a split second. I'm tired of every damn EV starting over $50k because they have to cram in every stupid feature dreamed up in the marketing department, but Bezos? Fuck that guy.

Move over, Ford and Chevy: Kei trucks are pulling up as customers opt for smaller, cheaper vehicles

I have one. No crumple zone. No airbags. Slow acceleration. Can't reach highway speeds. No headrest.
But it's my favorite car ever. I just treat it like I'm riding a motorcycle. I'm dead in an accident, so I try to be hyper-aware.

Spotify Publishes AI-Generated Songs From Dead Artists Without Permission

Here too. Went to Tidal (which is problematic in its own way), but it's not using AI and funding genocide, and it pays more to artists, so...🤷♂️

lazy ad block rule

Take a look at "vinegar" in the app store. It's a safari extension that changes the video tag on youtube videos and removes the ads.
I don't explain it well, and it costs money (fyi), but it's working for me.

I've never heard that take on it before (the idea of turning time into space), but it sounds fascinating. Do you have any links I could follow up on?

What's your pet peeve when it comes to tropes? What bothers you when you see it in a show or a movie?
The bad guy that is omniscient and omnipresent. Everywhere you go, oops! There's the bad guy and he totally kicks your ass and ruins your plans.
We call it Neganing. He's the reason I eventually stopped watching the Walking Dead.
Or like Sylar (from Heroes), where the writers find a baddie they just love too much to kill so the whole show becomes about them.

Holy cow, yes. I didn't hate the movie, but it definitely was not what was presented in the trailer.

What was the last movie you watched?
Thelma
Indie movie about a grandma that gets scammed and fights back. Funny and cute. Really good if you like that stuff. Based on a true story.
