She’s anti vax mandate, not anti Vax. She herself is vaccinated.

Shot vs deaths

I heard that line in Bill Wurtz voice
- Comment on After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year 1 month ago:
I hope their platform soon becomes over inundated with AI slop from Udio and Suno to the point it is unusable and collapses.

I want a god damn 25 megaton nuke tyvm.

Are you saying all Europeans stereotype all Americans?
- Comment on Generative AI could soon decimate the call center industry, says CEO 2 months ago:
I think that was probably a conscious decision made to differentiate between agree and non-agree votes.
- Comment on Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving linked to hundreds of crashes, dozens of deaths 2 months ago:
For example, I dont really trust mine and mostly use it in slow bumper to bumper traffic, or so I can adjust my AC on the touchscreen without swerving around in my lane.
- Comment on Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving linked to hundreds of crashes, dozens of deaths 2 months ago:
Well, did you find out?
- Comment on Biden expected to sign the TikTok ban on Wed. 2 months ago:
Young people get a lot of their news and information from TikTok. The US government doesn’t have their hands in TikTok like they do domestic social media platforms.
That’s it. That’s the ban.
- Comment on Tesla Cybertruck turns into world's most expensive brick after car wash 2 months ago:
Which is incredible considering Tesla’s software is typically considered their strong point. This is just a train wreck.
- Comment on Uncle brian... I get you now 2 months ago:
As someone with a great family and many, many friends without, yes, lol

Lost lemmings?

Or people with morbid curiousity like me who hop on to see the dumpster fire occasionally.
- Comment on A 7,000-Pound Car Smashed Through a Guardrail. That’s Bad News for All of Us. 3 months ago:
I do want to see more efficient, smaller EVs, but no one wants an EV that only gets 50 miles per charge.
- Comment on Protesters Gather Outside OpenAI Headquarters after Policy Against Military Use is Quietly Removed 4 months ago:
Drones are already prone to targetted EMF guns, regardless of if they require wireless communication, so I don’t feel that be a significant issue.
- Comment on Protesters Gather Outside OpenAI Headquarters after Policy Against Military Use is Quietly Removed 4 months ago:
The difference between the tech then and today are automated decision making capabilities. 20 years ago a turret could automatically target moving things. Now it can see humans, identify who they are, and decide who to kill without ever consulting a human. Basically, Skynet by next Tuesday.
- Comment on Do you have to be Japanese to be a Kaiju? 4 months ago:
Ah, I see what you mean.
- Comment on Do you have to be Japanese to be a Kaiju? 4 months ago:
Riiiight, we don’t have a word for isekai in English, but my point is isekai does not mean fantasy in Japanese lol.
- Comment on Do you have to be Japanese to be a Kaiju? 4 months ago:
Isekai means other world and is a subgenre of fantasy. For literal fantasy, it’s just ファンタジー or fantoji, lol.

👍
- Comment on Gel and lithium-ion tech could enable 1000-mile EV range on one charge 4 months ago:
Range is basically solved for the vast majority of the population at this point. There are chargers every few hundred kilos along all main interstates. Apart from those living out in extremely rural locations or living situations like apartments where you can’t charge at home, you’d be fine. For those that fall into that category…well, don’t buy an EV, lol.
- Comment on Gel and lithium-ion tech could enable 1000-mile EV range on one charge 4 months ago:
I live in California, so the infrastructure is likely more built up here, but I regularly make trips from the SF Bay Area all the way to San Diego or Las Vegas just fine. On a shorter 2.5 hour trip, I could see it being annoying, but a couple charge stops on an 8 hour trip offer a nice time to take a break to grab a quick bite and carry on. Just my two cents.
- Comment on Just 137 crypto miners use 2.3% of total U.S. power — government now requiring commercial miners to report energy consumption 4 months ago:
That’s my point. Sorry, I should have said “fiat in general”.
- Comment on Just 137 crypto miners use 2.3% of total U.S. power — government now requiring commercial miners to report energy consumption 4 months ago:
I feel like calling bitcoin a grifter scheme is kind of like calling fiat currency a grifter scheme. Which I guess isn’t entirely untrue…
- Comment on FCC bans AI-generated voices in robocalls that can deceive voters 4 months ago:
To be fair, most robocalls these days aren’t domestic in origin

Sorry, I totally misread the comment I replied to, disregard haha
- Comment on Why It Was Almost Impossible to Make the Blue LED 4 months ago:
That’s Japan, baybee. They love their toxic work culture. Thankfully, it is slowly changing with the younger generations, however.
- Comment on Why It Was Almost Impossible to Make the Blue LED 4 months ago:
I typed this on a folding screen, even!
- Comment on Why It Was Almost Impossible to Make the Blue LED 4 months ago:
Well no, but…yeah sure why not lol
