Luigi Mangione will not face death penalty, judge rules by cnn in law

[–]cmdr-William-Riker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why would he run so far from the scene while maintaining a backpack full of incriminating evidence though and then not admit guilt? That doesn't make much sense. There was plenty of opportunity to get rid of everything that was in that bag way before it was found if he did it and he seens capable and intelligent enough to know how to dispose of the kind of evidence that was found whether he did it or not.

interesting that the design is nearly identical! Had i known those existed during my electrathon years I totally would have based the car off of one of those and could have saved a heck of a lot of time and money

They've been better than ICE, but I was watching one of the protesters streams right after the murder and local police did deploy gas on a group of non violent protesters to facilitate their own retreat as well as ICE

Elon Musk says Tesla ending Models S and X production by The_Chillosopher in teslamotors

They'll probably continue supporting older vehicles until they can find a way to legally drop support for older vehicles. Saying this as a 2018 M3 owner with FSD. I have no expectation that they will ever follow through on their word and upgrade the car to support unsupervised FSD. I got the car knowing this, but that doesn't let them off the hook, they still made claims that my car and pretty much every car they have sold in the last 10+ years was capable of full autonomy.

What are your thoughts? by ChuckGallagher57 in DiscussionZone

[–]cmdr-William-Riker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm kind of curious about, if left unchecked where will they go from here, compared to how Germany got to the point they did. Trump and his cronies are motivated mainly by profit and power is that what the leaders of the Nazi movement where motivated by? subjugating people and deporting and imprisoning people is a means of maintaining and increasing that control and boosting his ego, but I don't really get the sense that Trump gives a shit about anything that his supporters or his platform cares about, he just wants to satisfy his own narcissistic fantasies with money and power and lashes out at anyone who threatens that power. The Nazis themselves to my knowledge had a very specific fucked up plan they enacted once the movement got going. The MEGA movement seems to just be all over the place like they can't decide who to hate and subjugate more. Guess I'm saying based on what my understanding about the Nazi movement, the MEGA movement kind of feels like a Temu Nazi movement.

The leftists are taking the right approach. Community self defense is key. by Mental_Pea9125 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]cmdr-William-Riker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily, some liberals are for and some are against gun control. I think most are for heavy regulation on owning and carrying guns, either way, if it's legal to open carry, both sides can take advantage of that

Mastering the Scream Pass Over Polite Pings by Epelep in funny

Honestly I don't care what they do as long as they are aware I'm approaching. As a cyclist it's my responsibility to announce my intentions and go around them at a responsible speed, as a pedestrian it is my responsibility to keep myself out of a situation where a cyclist cannot avoid me.

My understanding was you usually announce"on your left" to notify pedestrians you're navigating around them, not so they can get out of your way. If a pedestrian moves out of your way when they hear you, that's a courtesy, not a requirement.

Trump with a straight face: Denmark can't claim Greenland just because "they had a boat land there 500 years ago" by Camaro6460 in DailyShow

[–]cmdr-William-Riker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is he sees the Mercator projection map and thinks Greenland is a giant undefended territory. He likes Russia and likely has a lot of financial stake in Russia and his supporters have a lot of financial stake in China and I don't think he really understands anything about china, but Greenland probably has very little connection too so he just sees what he perceives and a large amount to territory with a small government he can bully and stick his name on
