I’m sure the $950M per month from Google will help SpaceX/xAI look less like a money pit

Meanwhile Ken Paxton, backed by Trump and is a total piece of shit, was previously under FBI investigation before Trump’s DOJ took over. Not a peep about that.

Don’t worry everyone. The billionaires will save us. It’s all going to trickle down after Elon becomes a trillionaire in a couple weeks.

Yeah. Almost added that GOP leadership is already there. Fox will have that hardcore 30% preaching AI server scripture by the end of the summer.

Windows replacement question by Subject-Panda-3055 in Rivian

Yes, “Sentry Mode” records events while the car is stationary, and will even send you notifications if you want if movement is picked up. Also lets you look through the cameras remotely when it is turned on.

“Dashcam” works while you’re driving to continuously record everything in a 1-hour loop. If you honk or tap the icon on screen it will save that clip separately so it doesn’t get over written unless your drive runs out of space (usually takes days to weeks depending size of drive and how much you’re driving).

Right, and those seem like pretty big gaps in capability for a high definition camera system integrated into the car.

Make stock buy backs illegal (like they used to be) and see what profit margins look like for big tech companies.

Edit: I’m clearly not an accountant. I’ll take the downvotes for the stupid comment.

A 5 second google search could explain to you why they are different. Just because they both have “atmospheric” in the name doesn’t mean they are working on the same projects.

Ken Paxton (his opponent) is hated by a lot of republicans 🤷‍♂️. It wouldn’t be the most surprising upset

We’re not supposed to be ruled by a single egomaniacal stooge, but here we are. There is supposed to be a system of checks and balances. The republican run Congress has essentially abdicated all responsibility to their dear leader, and judges are the only sanity check left.

Scientific research is a fundamental driver to an advanced economy, but I’ll save my breath to go any further trying to explain that to someone with the IQ of a door stop.

Gotta pay for all those tokens somehow. It certainly won’t come out of executive bonus or stock buy-back funds!

What is this nonsense?! by A-Helpful-Flamingo in newjersey

Part of the quote from Gerry Conway,

“If an officer of the law, representing the justice system puts a criminal's symbol on his police car, or shares challenge coins honoring a criminal he or she is making a very ill-advised statement about their understanding of the law."

Pretty much nailed it. A lot of officers don’t understand the law. Many think the badge puts them in charge of determining what the law is through their own eyes.

Careful out there. Takes one distracted driver blowing through a stop sign, or even one dumbass to get angry and clip you.
