So people on the internet can get mad that you didn’t vote how they wanted instead of getting mad at you for not voting.

If they want people to keep shopping there and providing the income necessary to maintain that charitable work, they should probably try to maintain the perception that they price things cheaply enough to make it worth digging through racks of second hand goods.

Through various stages of my life I have used torrents, streaming, Usenet, Napster, limewire, aol/IRC chat rooms, discord, and even google searches. You must adapt to whatever works.

As funny as it is to picture in your head I don’t think it’s appropriate to wear a costume and do a funny bit when you may be deciding if someone gets to keep their children or lose their house. The other person involved sounds like an uptight liar, but I i think maybe all of these people kinda suck.

I feel like “capitalists aren’t left wing” is a lesson people keep having to relearn.

An Obama-shaped shadow looming in their garden would do the same. Training these people that these actions have no consequences is far more dangerous than listening to them whine about the government, which they were going to do anyway.

People will still fall for it by treating it like a demonstration of what Elon wants to make, and just an early prototype. The abilities these “robots” displayed are on par with technology that has been available for over 20 years. They don’t realize the parts missing, filled in by human intervention, are the most difficult parts to create and literally cannot be done without a major, generational breakthrough in AI.

Yeah, it was a guy they had come out on stage and do a dance in a morph suit and a helmet.

They’ll mobilize the national guard for college campus protests but we have armed militias preventing domestic government aid and not a single boot on the ground or dissident hauled away. Pathetic.

You don’t really need to visualize yourself on the rim, either. Just turn left in any context and you will trace the path of an anticlockwise circle. It’s really more about establishing why there’s a link between left and anticlockwise. Picture and remember whatever works best for you, I’m just annoyed by the people stubbornly insisting the link between them doesn’t make perfect sense.

You have to have a convention about Up to usefully describe a rotational direction at all. I don’t see how that’s relevant. Left implies an Up.

i know you can make the wheel work the opposite way, jesus christ. the circle motion the path of the car makes when you turn left is the same as when you turn the wheel to the conventional left. imagine, instead you steered “left” by a joystick. the car would still draw the same circular path the same fucking way, because turning left makes an anticlockwise circle, every time, in every situation.

No im trying to illustrate the parallels between how you turn the wheel, how the car turns in response to that , and how they are all related. You turn left you will make the exact same rotational movement, with both the vehicle, and the steering wheel.

It’s as simple as, “What direction do you turn the wheel to make the car go left?” I just stacked on top “and also it makes the car itself do that same exact circular movement” so you don’t just dismiss this as some kind of arbitrary convention.

how’s your day goin, man?

At least until the next bend in the road where the sign indicating a left turn ahead is more than you can handle.

If I ask you to turn the car left and you give me this speech I would eject from the car.

If a steering wheel has you this perplexed then I beg you to never ever drive a vehicle.

They don’t. They are not competitors. This is not a product that exists as a real purchasable item. Those little robot dog toys are closer to BD than what Elon has done here.

Imagine it as if it were a track you were driving around, which way would you turn the wheel?
