I'm going to refuse to agree to the TOU when they try to force it on me. If they block me from using FF without the TOU then I will switch to something else. I think everyone should consider waiting until they try to force a TOU and then rejecting it, if you want to send a strong message.

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...

Don't worry. I'm sure he'll get a pardon.

In both cases it's millennials. It's even called "millennial grey."

Don't worry Tesla diamond hands: Trump will announce a "Strategic TSLA reserve buying scheme."

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

Too many villains in our society, not enough heros.

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.

I think pulling the openly trans storyline is bad.

It would have been cringe and counterproductive

I think having the “openly” Christian character is totally fair and reasonable.

It will be cringe and counterproductive.

Disney isn't a company capable of creating good art anymore. No matter who they try to pander to, it will be shallow, tired, and insufferable.
