    Elon Musk now owns 9.2% of twitter...update.. will soon be the sole owner as Board of Directors accepts his purchase offer

    On an annual basis they were profitable the last 4 years but it definitely was fits and starts and not a strong growth story like investors wanted. Twitter never seemed to know how to monetize their outsized traffic and mindshare. There really was a great foundation that the right leader could...

    Biden resorts to Trump tactics: flat out lies and misleading claims

    I don't think American democracy is at risk with Biden. Is there some reason you believe Trump won't double down on his attempts in 2020 if he returns to power?

    Russia on brink of ... NOPE! Russia INVADES Ukraine!

    If the victim would just stop struggling and people would stop trying to help him, this could be over quicker and we could have peace. Alternately - she should just accept being raped because he might try to kill her instead. There is one path for peace that doesn't reward aggression - for the...

    News Trump: Mar-a-Lago just raided by FBI

    I hate the bad faith arguments about the timing of the raid. 1. DOJ moves much earlier to recover the classified documents - 'Oh, why didn't the DOJ use less public options and work to resolve this peacefully. They're like the gestapo.' 2. DOJ tried every other way to recover classified docs...

    What's your gasoline costing?

    Having everything you mentioned within a radius of several hours + all the coastal beauty nearby on top of it is why we deal with CA pricing. Being able to go for a beautiful walk something like 330 days out of the year in temperate, low humidity weather makes it almost worth it.

    House Passes 1/6 Commission

    I'd say his loooooooooooooooooooooooong history of dishonest business practices and personal lack of ethics didn't require any sort of 'crystal ball'. No filter and overly crude are very different. I prefer those who embrace it honestly - they got exactly what they were hoping for and would have...

    Audi R8 V10 RWD

    Amazing ride - congrats. It's on a far smaller scale but during the pandemic I picked up a 2014 Boxster S with 16K miles and it's honestly been one of the best purchases I've made for myself and my sanity. I DD it with the California weather and lucked out as I got it before prices went wacko...

    Covidiots thread

    Goes hand in hand with the critical thinking skills where if something doesn't work 100% of the time, then it's worthless and having a 0% alternative is superior.

    Jen Psaki is the worst press secretary in the last 20+ years

    Incomplete - what leadership wants to hear is 'I don't know, I'll find out' which is equivalent to what she is saying. You're hung up on style over substance which is typical of second rate corporate cultures.

    MegaMillions: $970M

    Thanks vivi - looking forward to the ~7.5M per person after taxes. We'd totally need to have a Vegas meet up once we're all vaccinated.

    Republicans in Wayne County Michigan tried to steal the votes of the predominately black district of Detroit by refusing to certify the vote

    I think they forgot to hide their racism when offering to certify a predominantly white district with a higher % of irregularities but not Detroit. You're not supposed to actually come out and say it.

    Why Trump decision to block Biden transition matters

    I agree - we may look back at this event as the start of the eventual loss of confidence in our democratic process. Millions of Americans believe that election was rigged - the gullible and stupid who can't comprehend the cynicism and selfishness of Trump (surely he wouldn't lie about something...

    Postal worker admits fabricating allegations of ballot tampering, officials say

    Because it's not done in good faith. All of Trump's legal challenges have literally been laughed out of the courts. No evidence has been presented that shows measurable fraud much less sufficient fraud to flip the election. This is the equivalent of saying flat earthers deserve an investigation...

    The Official 2020 General Election returns thread CONTAINS NSFW IMAGES IN POST 3,884

    Perhaps it's because there's no injustice to protest regarding the election. I wonder if folks who gleefully repost this understand how tone deaf it is comparing their imagined harm to decades of injustice. Disagree with their methods if you want of BLM, but it's the pinnacle of white privilege...

    The Official 2020 General Election returns thread CONTAINS NSFW IMAGES IN POST 3,884

    Among many things it's so frustrating that the growing economy of the last 4 years prior to covid were wasted. 2X the deficit in 2019 vs 2015 is an utter crime considering the circumstances. Inheriting a growing economy and pissing it all away pre covid with nothing to show for it in...

    Plans for when Biden loses?

    Having a candidate who can speak coherently is a good start. If a candidate who speaks like Trump interviewed at my company, we'd probably refer them to social services.

    Presidential Debate #1

    I didn't vote for Trump in 2016 and obviously was unhappy he won, but I always believed that the strength of our institutions would protect us in the long term, as imperfect as they are. I never thought in my lifetime that cornerstones that this country is built on - such as the peaceful...

    Some examples of where Sanders supporters are coming from:

    If people honestly think that Democratic and Republican status quo is similar, then there's no real dialogue to be had. Will I take 4-8 years more of a Obama-lite administration over another 4 years of a Trump led administration? Hell yes. At a bare minimum I'll take making taxes more...

    US strike kills Iranian Quds Force commander

    This is beyond childish. By your thinking China shouldn't have retaliated with tarrifs since it would only hurt their country. Leaders everywhere are at the mercy of their citizens public opinion. Using ww2 as an example where millions died on one side and hundreds of thousands on the other to...

    US strike kills Iranian Quds Force commander

    They didn't have a choice. The moment Trump took it from a cold war to hot by publicly killing a state figure, their government was now forced by public opinion to respond officially. Shadow games only work when both sides play that game. And now the US likely needs to have a disproportionate...

    US strike kills Iranian Quds Force commander

    My problem is whether the administration did any real risk calculation and had a cohesive plan in place to protect against likely responses. I don't need them to be playing chess, even checkers would be good enough. Instead I feel like they're playing tic-tac-toe and declaring victory after each...

    why is it that android keyboards are so awful?

    The lack of long press for numbers and symbols kills me every time I use my wife's iPhone. On the other hand, sometimes Google Keyboard on my S10+ gets me 100% of the time, and once in a while it endlessly butchers what I'm trying to write. It's almost like the ML models behind it go haywire for...

    Biden hits the nail on the head!!No mincing words---

    I don't care how you vote. It's that you try to portray it as a rational decision like the lesser of two evils when the scale is fundamentally different. In reality it's closer to saying some people don't want yesterday's leftovers so instead will eat sludge from a landfill.

    Navy Seal War Crimes

    How/why is this a partisan issue? If a solider broke our code of justice, then he/she should be court martialed and judged by a jury of peers. I don't think anyone will disagree that we have people non-befitting the uniform in all presidencies and eras. What has caught the attention of...

    The difference between poor Asians and Americans

    As an Asian and child of immigrants, I do wish white Americans with an agenda would stop using us to dehumanize other minorities. It's the classic privileged to non-privileged tactic of saying "look it's not us, it's actually you".

    Democrats - you'd better be careful about how you approach a capital gains tax increase

    Is there any taxable income that shouldn't be treated as regular income? Sure you might need to adjust the tiers a bit, but seems like it would greatly simplify the tax code and make it more fair.

    What will happen to all those restaurant/retail workers when robots take over their jobs?

    But for most quick service places, you're not exactly getting high quality human interaction. I love restaurants I can self-order at the table. I'd have no problem with most places having automated seating, ordering, delivery, and payment with fine dining being an exception. Sure have 1 person...

    Question Why is there no build it yourself?

    Not just that - testing and certification with different regulatory bodies would be a nightmare. Many pre-installed apps also require device certification with groups like payment networks.

    Captain Marvel

    I enjoyed it through it wasn't as fresh as Thor Ragnarok - definitely felt more like a standard Marvel beginning story line. I though the humor was enjoyable, there was actual character development, and the action was decent. Not sure where all the SJW hate is coming from (or the hate on the...

    I installed a Gcam port and have to say - that night mode, even if not as good as on the Pixel, is pretty amazing. The pictures in super low light were almost twice as bright as the auto night mode on the stock camera. The biggest downside is that it doesn't support the wide angle camera yet...

    Nice - mine comes in today. Annoying that Fedex doesn't provide real time location updates so you're basically hoping someone is home whenever they show up between 8 and 8. Doesn't feel very 2019.
