Can you enlighten us? From what I recall, the extent of that “controversy” was that Obama’s tan suit wasn’t solemn enough to wear to a conference about war.

This is definitely not true. Teslas can absolutely go through a car wash. They do recommend touchless ones, but pretty much every manufacturer does.

Yeah man. People love to bash Elon and rightfully so. I live in Southern California, I drive a Tesla and a lot of my friends do also. I used to travel a lot for work, and would regularly rent nice cars for weeks on end. My Tesla is the car I’ve enjoyed most ever, and it’s not really even close.

Yeah it has problems. But what car doesn’t? Nothing is perfect. But for me, the features that Teslas have check all the boxes in a really novel and enjoyable way.

It’s called voir dire, and it’s more complicated than that. For a case this size the counsels will likely have done focus groups to see what traits, etc. tend to test well against the client. So yes, they are theoretically screening for biases, but the selection is ultimately up to both councils, so it’s a balancing act of stacking the jury in your favor.

When you describe it like that… I feel like it makes more sense. Like, of course the penguin is gonna want his safety stones. I buy that.

If looking to keep the general spaghetti form, bucatini can’t be beat.

Is this real? I know nothing about cruises, that seems so insane and yet so… Practical.

I see this a lot and I really don’t understand it. Here I am on lemmy.world, replying to you on sh.itjust.works, on a post from lemmy.ml. Clearly neither of us are browsing just our local instance, and indeed I imagine most people are not. So what does it matter what instance anyone is on, beyond instance-specific defederations?

But that’s a noun…

What the fuck are you talking about

Excellent contribution

Unless they arbitrarily defederate. Which you wouldn’t be aware of unless you’re following specific communities, which you may or may not be able to follow without making separate accounts.

And like, I understand the intention. The fediverse is a good idea. But let’s not pretend it’s “easy”. Average users are subject to the whims of admins as much or more than on Reddit, because here, admins can effectively hide /r/piracy, and you’ll never have known it even existed. Understanding the mechanics that allow that process is more complicated than learning reddit. I’m not prepared to say it’s worse, but it’s different.

I mean yes, that’s certainly possible. But there are business processes to handle performance improvement. There is no excuse to be nasty. Not to mention the sexual harassment, if true, is absolutely illegal.

This is fantastic and if I heard you say that in person you’d ironically be my go-to
