Assuming the probability of assholiness based on culture is how you treat cultures unequally. You fight assholiness in the individual level. You can’t change a culture like that. You can only educate people and they will change their own culture.

ITT people missing the point and projecting their own beliefs and values.
This is how people “strawman”. It’s easy to hate on atheists if you just see them all as their asshole members. The truth is that any group has their violent nutjobs and vocal minorities. You can’t just say all Muslims are terrorists just the same as you can’t say feminists are hateful crazies.

How do you know? What car would somebody buy if they cared about those things? There are no choices. There is not enough competition to have enough choices.

Ok mr reviewer
Why don’t you tell us less about WV’s strategy a more about how the car is.
Does it spy on you? What kind of EULA will I need to agree to? Does it have car play/android auto? Does it have a 4G antenna to connect to VW servers even if I don’t enable the feature? Does it have an app? In what ways is VW going to try to get subscription money from me? How much does servicing cost? How much will a set of brake pads cost? Does VW support 3rd party repair shops? Does VW try to lockdown parts and forbid 3rd party repairs? Can it be remotely disabled? By me, by VW, by law enforcement? What happens when the battery needs replacing?

Nice all the work that the lawyers saved will be offset by judges having to verify all the cases cited
- Comment on Judges Are Fed up With Lawyers Using AI That Hallucinate Court Cases 5 weeks ago:
Because AI is better than humans and finding relevant court cases. If you are a lawyer and you cite a court case that you didn’t even verify it exists you deserve that sanction and more.

Looking at the picture, my theory may be wrong. There is a black spot on the torch too far from the hot glass.
My other theory is that the flames where so bright they had to edit the footage. Old film developers had a technique to darken an area called “burning”. It was not so precise to cover over the flame so the are around the bright spots got darkened as well.
Modern HDR can have a similar effect. When an algorithm can’t be sure of how dark an area between a dark and a bright spot must be, it make the transition gradually causing the “HDR Effect” where, for example, the sky gets brighter the closer you get to the horizon, building, subject.

Hot glass emits sodium vapors. Sodium vapors block the wavelength of the light that the film is sensitive to. The torch emits on wider spectrum so the torch flames are leaving an impression on the film.
Glassblowers didymium goggles block the torches spectrum but can’t hide the hot sodium emitting light. The hot gas that you can see when looking though glassblowers goggles is what looks black in your photo.
