They were forced to sell to a us based group.

Or the fully electric small truck Ford is working on.

As proof of concept, Slate is cool. Up against a vehicle from an actual truck manufacturer, it’s probably a hard sell.

Thank you for that context.

I stand by my points that his comments were vile and inexcusable, and that he’s spend the better part of twenty years also feeling that they were vile and inexcusable.

And I’m not trying to excuse the words or his behavior on stage. Only trying to acknowledge his behavior since the day after the incident and for the last 20 years as steadfastly apologetic. His words were wrong, and importantly he thinks so too.

It looks to me like what they’re referring to is Michael Richards tirade being uncomparable to Jerry’s comments that were supporting the genocide. That’s how I read it, anyway.

That’s what I’m saying too. Seinfeld’s comments were made in a more calm matter, but were way way way worse than Richards’.

But I mean he (Richards) was talking about lynching the guy at the Laugh Factory, so even as far as racism goes, that’s pretty fucking up there.

I don’t recall the lynching comments, only the several utterances of the n word, but I could be wrong. In either case it was vile and cannot be excused. What’s more telling to me is his behavior since; he was immediately apologetic and he has remained so for 20 years

Is it [Seinfeld’s comments] even close to publicly supporting a genocide? Hell no.

So you excuse Seinfeld here, but still hold Richards 100% accountable?

I’ve posted this elsewhere, I don’t think Richards is a piece of shit like Seinfeld.

The Michael Richards incident was a literal one time event, albeit a terrible one. There were zero instances before and zero instances after that suggest Richards is racist. Everything since then Michaels has done suggests he’s exceedingly remorseful over it.

I am not excusing it in the least, but I don’t think it’s even close to fair to compare him to someone currently supporting the genocide in Palestine.

May I ask how you use RSS? In an app? (If so, what one). Something else?

I find it funny that I have those examples in my “huge library of physical media.”

And I guess what I’m saying is it’s not a trap, it’s explicitly not even convenience. Yes, it’s full of dopamine producing trinkets that make you want to stay on the site, but don’t mistake it for convenience. Convenience is the wrong word.

Ya, I disagree that it makes things more convenient, and I disagree it brings “everything” under one umbrella.

It makes some communication easier. That’s about how far I’m willing to go to describe its positives.

“Everything”

What is explicitly convenient about social media?

Delisted from Google ≠ ruined internet

Ignoring the fact that iOS is an option, I bet you’re mostly mistaken and there is a web based or non app option for everything, even if it’s not obvious.

If you’re waiting for government to save us, you’re going to be waiting a long time.

What is the bank?

Well boys, pack it in. Our Google overlords give us no choice. All hail Google.

What I’ll say in Apples defense is they largely are what they say they are. You may not like what Apple provides, which is fair, but at least you know what you’re getting.
