Yeah. I think my car has a pretty decent build overall but the (I shit you not) 14 recalls ive had to bring it in for ranging from door handle replacements, firmware updates, back hatch issues makes me raise an eyebrow to it. I let a few stack up before I bring it in because I never notice any issue before or after, but better to get the free service than not.

Evidence strongly counters my own feelings on the matter.

Sounds like a good reason to skip buying any car warranty going forward since I’ll be attempting to void that shit almost immediately.

Bad business decisions all around.

The art of the deal!

Yes, he is her senior by quite a bit. He would be compelled to pay under these circumstances.

I’m American and we dont have such strict cultural roles, but at 37, I would have absolutely treated my much younger friends or coworkers in any 1 on 1 situation that I initiated.

We thought this was a reward, but maybe its actually the 1st step in her planned death. Sex offenders are typically separated from general pop for their protection from the other inmates. The public announcement may have just been the proverbial ringing of the dinner bell.

I think they should be taken down or taken over by another entity. They were launched under the premise they were a utility and it turns out they’re being used military.

I dont mean the internet access itself but the giving and striping of access to suit a military agenda goes beyond the pervue of an organization claiming to be an ISP or commercial utility.

Actually I respect it. Its easy to view this comment from her to be about Epstein when the article mentions him specifically, but a person’s career is more than the 1 bullet point people become known for. I didn’t follow his career so I dont really know.

I think everyone deserves representation in court, no matter how heinous they are. If they have a multi million dollar defense and still go to prision… that fucker is guilty. When they are stuck with some overworked public defender, it starts to raise doubts even when it would otherwise be an obvious case.

I was gonna say that it would only be unfortunate due to giving them a reason to attack Iran, but history has shown us that doesn’t matter. We’ll do that regardless. If we dont have a reason we’ve been happy to just make one up.

At this point its really just a matter of not wanting to actually fight America on the battlefield.

Uh… they’re still people. They like doing good rewarding things and they like learning real skills.

In this case they aren’t ever in neighborhoods spraying down homes. These are the guys in hills cutting fire breaks to stop the fires from ever reaching homes.

None of these fire fighters are forced. Its a job that they earn privileges for doing. They’re probably not as gung-ho about it as someone who’s made a career of it but they aren’t slaves like you’re imagining.

I wrote my congresswoman and told her she lost my vote over this.

They were invaded by 1 of the 2 nations that agreed to protect them if they disarmed. The US did not uphold its obligations 3 times in a row through multiple administration’s. The latest conflict in Ukraine is a result of actions taken by the USA, followed by inaction on our part.

If we didn’t request their disarmament, lie about protecting them, it would be a very different landscape there right now.

It isn’t solely the fault of the US, but we are major contributors.

You keep writing like they have them and thats why they are being attacked. Its specifically because they dont yet have them that they are being attacked. If they already had them like North Korea, their situation would be more similar. I doubt people would be bombing them, in the same way people aren’t bombing North Korea despite it acting very hostile and making direct threats.

North Korea has nukes and it never gets invaded and gets aid sent to it. Iran doesn’t have nukes and it is regularly attacked.

I’d say their presence adds very clear value to the example country that actually has them.

I actually no longer trust that to be true with how many systems and programs were gutted. I suspect we probably dismantled our early warning systems.

If thats not the case, I still question whether or not this administration would let a blue state get hit when they could prevent it just out of spite.

All this also doesn’t take into account how creators gets paid.

It’s a big system, with enough moving parts that I understand the ad/pay model existing. I just wish they weren’t such prices about how they choose to operate it sometimes.

If there’s another president after him, they should just seize the plane since it belongs to the American people anyways. I think the value of a gift that is automatically seized is ludicrously low. I recall nintendo gifting a switch and it was made property of the American People, which usually means it goes to the Smithsonian.

This guy gets it.

They need to stop calling him a Democrat. He’s not one.

I agree. Everything being advertised on YouTube is sketch. Same with all the repeated podcast adverts honestly.

The fact that youtube hits me with an ad for a game that says everyone thinks its fake, with the most bullshit sounding voice over, tells me they are happy to take money for obvious scam products.

I feel like the only way it would work is if they got to keep the money of whoever they killed as long as that person had over a billion dollars… and I would almost be OK with that.

I like to imagine it would reduce the collateral damage the rest of society faces when these people have a dick waving contest.

Roided out billionaires with their hearts exploding out their chests from experimental steroids would really mix things up in a good way. He’ll maybe we’d get some truly sick cybernetic out of it too.
