Except they aren’t trash, they’re better than Teslas that’s for sure.

It’s possible to be trash and also better than Tesla…

In both cases it’s millennials. It’s even called “millennial grey.”

Also known as the Kamala Harris strategy: punch left and hug a war criminal.

Unironically one of the most surprising thing about the current crop of techbros is how anti-intellectual they are. Back in the day Paul Graham published a smarmy essay about how you shouldn’t have possessions except books. Nowadays, I see so many techbros saying “I hate books” and “I never read.”

It’s weird to have your self identity be both I’m smarter than everyone else and also I don’t read. I really am baffled at how they square that circle.

When I was a kid there was a cartoon called Captain Planet.

The bad guys would build these factories that didn’t seem to produce anything but pollution. Like, they would take in trees and sea creatures or whatever, and the only thing that would come out is smog and green water. It was very on-the-nose.

Bitcoin is a pollution factory.

If people are wondering why Google is simping to Trump, they have been convicted of being a monopoly and the antitrust action is now in the penalty phase.

The action started under Trump I, was vigorously pursued by Biden’s Lena Kahn and the conviction secured. Now all that’s left is to decide the penalty, which could range from a strongly written letter to a breakup of the company.

If it’s any consolation, Bomarc was also cancelled.

I’m guessing that hyper-defensiveness is probably a survival tactic at Tesla.

FDIC wasn’t on the hook for much of the SVB deposits because they were over the insurance limit, until they realized that wealthy people were going to lose money and retroactively decided to pony up.

Jesus, will liberals never learn.

I was just amazed that The Donald might actually manage to work his magic and come up with a way for the liberals to win. An astonishingly remarkable performance from the grand master.

This is the entire Adam Curtis documentary on hypernormalization:

Yeah 2015 was a revolutionary year, but the good guys were crushed and the bad guys won. ☹️

Canadians sure haven’t!

And the fact that it was actually British regulars…

That’s exactly how long you can stay in the country under the visa waver program.

If you have to stay longer you can get a B1/B2 visa.

This whole DeepSeek freakout seems like an Op by the AI grifters to get more money. “We have to defeat China at the new AI space race!”

The thing is I don’t drive unless I’m carrying stuff, so a car without cargo space isn’t useful.

Minivans are the best. I own a DGC built in Ottawa. Reliable AF. Huge cargo capacity. Gets 21MPG on the highway. Basically use it as a truck, but it’s way more practical than a truck because the cargo capacity is more and your stuff doesn’t get wet when it rains.

Only real downsize is tow capacity.
