The Elon Musk Twitter shitshow

This would seem like billions in campaign contributions not being properly documented...



NEW:
@X is pushing partisan content, most of it supporting Trump & sowing election doubt.
@WSJ reporters created new accounts with interests in things like crafts, then observed what content the accounts got recommended.

Their "for you" feeds showed pro-Trump content at double the rate of pro-Harris content.

Of course Musk is ok with collapsing the economy. Think of it from a strategic standpoint: If you're starving, you'll obey and do anything to get food. That's the plan.

Kicking 11 million people out of the country and pushing heavy tariffs will collapse the US economy rapidly.

The Executive and Judicial branches will negate the Legislative branch (Congress), meaning Trump and Elon will have free reign to do what they want.

America is at a precipice.

We could cut 2 trillion and still have a deficit.

The last time we had a surplus (during Clinton) we had federal receipts that were >20% GDP

Now, we're floating at receipts that are 16-17% GDP, due to Bush and Trump tax cuts on the wealthiest Americans.
If we want to close the deficits gap, we need to go ABOVE the 20% receipts of GDP to make up that gap over the past 15-20 years. That is simply how "math averages" work. Then, once we've closed the gap, receipts can drop back down to 18-20% and probably stay there.

The damage to the US budget deficits is largely all the gifts to the wealthiest Americans, at the expense of Main St. As another poster whined about in another thread - his property taxes are up, because municipalities are taking on more liabilities they used to get assistance from federal sources. Due to all those tax cuts, those sources have dried up.

Very much like how state taxes used to be higher to assist public universities and subsidize tuition costs for students. The Boomers today do not want to subsidize tuitions like they got in the 1960s and 1970s. They refuse to recognize they got "handouts" back then, that they simply refuse to "pay forward" today.

Imagine trying to convince someone that the Rockefellers tried to influence policy in the U.S.?!?

Straight to the looney bin!

Yup

Dude was relying 100% on his FSD and not watching the road at all.
He could have minimized the impact if he'd braked; deer was easily visible before impact.

I had an incident this past weekend with FSD. I was in a single express lane on the interstate. The lane itself broke off into two lanes when the express lane ended. The car had to choose which lane to be in and at first, chose the right lane of the two which is the one I would have chosen but suddenly changed it's "mind" and turned into the left lane which the SUV behind me was speeding into. It was very close to being in an accident. Thankfully the SUV saw the lane change and braked. Otherwise, I would have been screwed.

With that said, I have been happy with the car so far and love the technology.

The little icon on the left indicates that was your prior search.

Here's a more interesting test, explain how the best search engine in the world can't match a substring, or complete string.

If you're written a query in SQL you know you have to take deliberate extra steps to exclude a match:

Ron never heard of the MIC? His ignorance must be colossal. I wonder who would let him guide their opinion?

The government gave twice as much to Boeing for a spaceship and got nothing in return, but these idiots want to pretend the key to success is their handouts. If that were true, Boeing wouldn't be the failure everyone sees it as today.

Boeing is struggling due to massive QA cutbacks to their engineering staff, coupled with massive stock buybacks and a shift away from what they did well, to short-term gains over long-term viability.
