Gonna be real fun to see the crash test rating.

Without crumple zones, all of the kinetic energy goes into the occupants.

He’s always been a shit head like this. He just got rich enough that he thought he could get away with showing his true colors.

The dude comes from a family of slave owners and was born with a silver spoon up his ass.

I can guarantee you can get a pretty nice hotel for less than that without bullshit fees. Anyone still using Airbnb or any of the other short term rentals deserve what they get.

I for one am shocked that a publisher called “Game Mill” is known for pumping out a ton of shitty games in a short time with little care for the developers of the game.

“Almost every company”

You mean like 5-10 major companies?

There are thousands of smaller companies buying ad space and access to consumer data.

And “buying data” isn’t what it sounds like for the most part. Few companies are out there buying and selling raw data tied to individuals. For the most part it is a company buying heavily targeted ads from someone like Google that has ALL of your data. They know, with surgical precision, how to target ads at you. Company B just tells Google “ we want to target a 35 year old, white, dad of three that is lacking in his masculinity and wants to feel rugged, while not making him feel emasculated”.

The you get a Dr Squatch ad.

I don’t know why people expect massive jumps every single year. There’s only so much you can really change year over year at this point.

You don’t need to upgrade every damn year. Apple supports each phone for a minimum of 5-6 years.

Not to mention the massive civilian/contractor force that supports it. That’s a bunch of highly educated people that probably don’t want to live in Alabama either.

Richard Nixon tried to nuke North Korea because he was drunker than a skunk and Kissinger had to tell the joint chiefs of staff to ignore him.

It’s not trans people we need to worry about. It’s putting mentally weak and fragile men in charge of things.

Sealioning is the constant bad faith, feigning ignorance, asking for evidence of everything under the guise of “just asking questions”. Then ignoring any evidence presented and moving on to the next demand. Used to shut down discourse entirely.

Tankies are leftists that defend or deny the atrocities committed by authoritarian communist regimes like the Soviet Union or the CCP. It was first used to describe communists in Great Britain that defended the Soviet Union for using tanks to crush anti-communist revolutions.

Important to note that police only sought the warrant after the women mentioned to them that they had talked on Facebook messenger about it.

Never talk to the police.
