I didn't even think about that. My adaptive cruise doesn't even work in the snow because the sensor gets covered up. And I'm pretty sure that's better tech than what Tesla uses.

That is absolutely how they think. I had to turn off an episode of "Dogs with Jobs" of all things because it pissed me off. There was one with a police dog and his handler talked about "the enemy" and I was like "you mean the community you serve, which may include some people suspected of crimes?"

When I saw the balloon of his stupid face in the video, I immediately wondered how many it would take to just carry him away. Is he still insisting he weights 215 lbs? I would guess more like 280, so that'd be 296 jumbo balloons according to https://www.omnicalculator.com/everyday-life/helium-balloons.

I came here to write "Elise Stefanik is a moron", but then I noticed Chen already called her an idiot. What an embarrassment to NY-21 congressional district (thankfully not mine). I love going up to the Adirondacks, but man is it MAGA country now.

Last summer, I noticed the print on demand t-shirt shop in Old Forge that has been there since at least the 80s is now run by magats. They had a row of anti-LGBTQ shirts and the usual Joe Biden hatred crap on display and I just walked out. I'm so tired of people making everything political and wearing it on their sleeves, sometimes literally.

I'd bet these fan projects lead to more sales of their garbage products, but these corporations don't see that because they want that licensing money now. Or they're just spiteful and vindictive like Nintendo.
