Right? Especially considering the politics of some of the loudest AI evangelists. Do I want my fate decided by technology bankrolled by Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Marc Andreessen, Mark Zuckerberg, or Jeff Bezos?

Hell no.


Someone in another thread unironically called a midsized SUV a "matchbox". The vehicle in question has a size comparable to a Toyota 4Runner.

Was a great example of the ridiculous expectations some of us Americans have on ridiculously huge vehicles.


He's been posting extremely stilted political content lately, in addition to unchecked AI evangelism.

I really, really hate that our future has ended up in the hands of people like him, Andreessen, Thiel, Musk, etc.


"straight up bullshit" would be calling a 4runner-sized vehicle a "matchbox". Really highlights how ridiculous American's unnecessary lust is for massive vehicles.


Not only that, but it sounds like dealerships are still hardcore ripping off people who want to buy a RAV4 Prime. $20k over MSRP, refusing to sell without add-ons / warranty, etc.


Yep, wanted one but it made zero sense at the prices they wanted. Got a fully electric EV and very happy with the choice.

I figure there's a lot more to break on the Prime too.


Sure, in the same way that The Lord of the Rings is a really long trilogy about walking in the woods.


I absolutely adored the first 2 games, especially GTA2. "Damnation! No donation, nooo salvation!"


GTA2 also had a cool cinematic intro:

I remember downloading the RealPlayer version


Donate to causes you care about.

Volunteer your time.

Adopt an animal that otherwise might be euthanized.

Pick up litter.

Be nice to strangers.


Kinda funny, Noem claimed to have arrested the "Leader of Antifa" in Portland a few days ago [1]. Turned out it was just some guy who lived near I.C.E. HQ, who let nearby protesters use his bathroom and clean out mace from their eyes.

The American political situation is best characterized by the image of two deformed, monstrous, and vicious imbeciles wrestling for power. These are creatures that belong in a zoo, not in the political forum.


I guarantee it's just a bunch of heavily edited clips of people like Tim Pool being told they're idiots by college kids.


Conservative speakers are so very sensitive to being called stupid.
