Because a significant fraction of Americans—enough to vote a Nazi into power—agree with Musk’s stupidity.

All these trolley problems are absurdly framed. There is only one correct answer to any trolley problem: 无. In effect you have to unask the question, step back, and look at the framing.

The framing wants you to look at the switch so that you ignore the real question: which asshole is going around and tying people (or cats (or paintings (or trees (or …)))) on the tracks just so they can get their jollies by watching you make moral choices while people get killed? Find that asshole and you stop all trolley problems forever.

Mental note: avoid Southwest Airlines. This is, of course, easy because of my quarter-century old ban of ever setting foot on US soil.

OK, now it makes (some) sense. Thanks.

Which idiots think Warren Buffett is any different from the rest of the billionaires? He still got to where he is by ruthless exploitation.

I … don’t get it? Can someone explain like I’m five?

Canadian inspectors should find “structural problems” on the Ambassador bridge (only on the Canadian side of the border) and close it down for “delicate repairs”.

Leave it closed down.

The United States of Assholes.

Scolding someone for wanting Nazis humiliated is peak Nazi.

Huh. I thought whites would be safer than that in the USA.

My bad. If you’re not an unequivocal citizen, don’t have white skin, and/or don’t have plenty of money, GTFO of the USA. You’re not safe there.

Turning on the “reasoning” display is always hilarious. The proof that it’s just a hallucination machine can be seen when in the “reasoning” it starts making shit up about what it was asked to do.

What are underpants gnomes?

Underpants gnomes are creatures from an episode of Space: 1999 that steal the underthings from the Alphans, causing a laundry crisis.

Did you?

It specifically talks about one form.

And it implicitly talks about the USA.

And with your performance here, I can see why books are dying in the USA. Reading is for lefties, amirite?

Hush! Don’t confuse the issue with facts when someone is going full-tilt racist!

Are you an AI? Because you speak with such confidence while not backing anything up.

Yes. We should contribute further to the culture of rental life.

Here’s a thought. Maybe it’s time for techie shits to die.

Do you want that in minutes?

Better is a whole lot more than “upping the QA”. The cars here are genuinely innovative and, more importantly, the logistical and fabrication techniques are innovative.

One of the major reasons the big name Chinese EVs are cheaper than their roughly equivalent western counterparts is because the companies are vertical, not horizontal, in their supply chain.

Yes. They’re subsidizing so hard that the EVs are dirt-cheap HERE. You know, all those companies running at a loss to sell … domestically … while somehow … innovating.

Compassionate fucking Buddha this endless whining about “subsidies” gets tiresome after a while. Grow the fuck up you idiots and leave the kiddie pool.

Agree 100%. No notes. If we could make our voices heard while being nice, that would be fine. We can’t.

It’s amazing how there’s so many angles from which to attack LLMbeciles—technological, social, moral, and fiscal—and yet the clank fuckers out there remain convinced they’re at the cusp of “Real” AI.
