We can, but we have to work for it. When any group is no longer being systemically discriminated and have equal rights, then they're also valid comedy targets.
Like with racist jokes. They're fine in very confined groups where everyone agrees that the absurdity of the premise is part of the joke and where nobody will be made to feel unsafe by it. But to a wider audience where people might misunderstand where the joke came from, in what spirit it was told in, it's nok OK. Not only can it make people from the group being targeted feel unsafe, but it'll also embolden actual racists who'll mistake the joke as support of their beliefs.
It's a trust thing I guess. As soon as trans people can see someone crack a joke about them online and rest assured in the fact that the person telling that joke isn't voting for or otherwise enabling people who wants to take away their rights or straight up hurt them, then it'll be fine.
This protection, however, should not apply to people who make it their business to hurt or oppress other people, which is why it's always open season on nazis.
Read the whole website.
Radar. Only a small handful of cars have LIDAR. But your point still stands. Outside of Elon being a humongous douche and completely unpredictable, the lack of sensors is the major reason for not wanting a Tesla.
There's been talk multiple times of turning the Matthew Corbett series by Robert R. McCammon into a series.
I could see every book being turned into a maybe 10 episode season.
A microwave already freezes when you set the time to a negative number.
And it would have a great collaboration, but also a friendly rivalry, going with my robot butler.
I think even using decimals like that seems un-American, because I've always been told that fractions are what makes imperial so easy. Everyone loves calculating fractions after all, so perhaps a cent should be 1/37th of a dollar.
It's actually kinda weird that they use dollars and cents and not pounds, shillings, pennies and farthings, because that feels much more compatible with the imperial way of thinking.
The Chinese are more frugal in their methods of genocide, but the disregard for human life is about the same.
It's an ereggtion.
It's a grown up Noogler.
