  • Lars? Lars Ulrich of Metallica fame? Why would he get mad over fans liking music? When did this happen? The Napster case, while bullshit, at least had something of a leg to stand on but this is just absurd.

  • Crusaders: Is Deus Vult not the way of our Lord, your holiness?

  • Well, time to whip out the old Red Ring machine.

  • You should base your response on the basis of civil liberties: a trans persons' preferred identity should accepted because they're within their right to do so. We, in return, should respect their decision.

  • The luckiest greybeard in the whole world.

  • Thanks for the reassurance!

  • Didn't realize the grammatical mistake. Fixed it.

  • Fires that entrap passengers are a well-documented and recurring problem with every model in Tesla’s lineup of vehicles, but Cybertrucks appear to have a disproportionate number of known deaths. Safety experts have told the Guardian that the truck’s unique design amplifies the deadly issue. The vehicles come with high-density laminated windows that are harder to break than regular car windows, making escape and rescue difficult when doors won’t unlock. And the trucks are built with materials not commonly used in the industry, like stainless steel, which can complicate the work of emergency responders. The Cybertruck is also the first Tesla model to entirely eliminate door handles on the outside of the vehicle.

    First, "unique" design? It's an ugly callback to the wedge-shaped cars of the 80s. It looks like a DeLorean model that refused to render properly, and the dev just went with it.

    Second, the decision to exclude door handles is fucking mental. It's a mundane feature that cars have had since the Model T. If they wanted to make a pickup, its handles should resemble those found on a typical pickup. If it's "aesthetics" they're after (which shouldn't matter when it comes to a pickup), some of the best looking cars have had no problem including door handles into its design.

  • Alcohol is haram but the Pride flag is too much? Pal, when you're five shots in your sexuality is the least of your worries.

  • America: Doing everything but addressing the cause of the issue.

  • Good to know that light pollution is getting more attention. Now, if only we can somehow merge the urbanist movement and the "Dark Sky" movement, we'll be a tad closer to a utopia. Imagine having walkable cities where you can see the Milky Way at night.

  • Speaking as a cishet man, the only time any two people can have unprotected sex is when both parties know the STD status of each other. He has to understand that IUDs are for pregnancy prevention, not STD prevention. If you wish to continue with this guy and at some point you want to start having unprotected sex with him, go get STD tested together. In the meantime, he has to wear the condom. If that bothers him, dump him. Don't put your body and your life at risk.

  • Not to mention that would drastically reduce dirty ocean water and countries can begin to clean up their coastlines.

  • In October, in an unrelated case, her 40-year-old brother, Brandon Lee Roberts, pleaded guilty to raping two people: an underage girl and a young woman. He subsequently received a 42-year prison.

    I was going to joke how it's "all in the family" but this goes to show how the law treats female offenders different than their male counterparts. In much of the western/anglophone world, we've come to associate sex abuse with men engaging in sexually predatory behavior; little thought is given about women committing sexual offenses since many are (sadly) the victim of such offenses. We've also come to see unbalanced age dynamics (younger man-older woman) as something of a rite of passage for men. If a guy loses his virginity with an older woman, he "scored" or got "lucky." If the roles were gender-swapped, it would rightly be considered assault but the assailant would receive a much higher sentence than the woman.

    We have stop treating sexual assault as one-sided.

  • If they were really serious, they would shut down their energy intensive datacenters and pledge far more (like 25%) of their annual profit.
