psychothumbs OP ,

What do you mean the results of the election won't matter? They'll determine whether a deranged and vengeance minded Trump becomes president...

psychothumbs OP ,

Trump may try to lie and cheat his way to the presidency in the face of an electoral loss, but he'd have even less luck with that in 2024 as a challenger than he did in 2020 as the incumbent president.

psychothumbs OP ,

Like you want the guest list in the title?

psychothumbs OP ,

Yeah it was a pretty dumb business move by Elon to become such a loud right-wing shithead when his core demographic of customers are people who are concerned about climate change.

psychothumbs OP ,

The problem is they've mostly now been negatively polarized against non-polluting energy.

psychothumbs OP ,

Funny how this comment agreeing with the thesis of the piece is upvoted while the article itself is downvoted. I guess because this emphasizes the need to vote for Biden part while the article spends more time on his failings?

psychothumbs OP ,

I obviously disagree with him there, but in a sense that just makes him having the integrity to acknowledge that anti-Zionism does not equal antisemitism more impressive.

psychothumbs OP ,

I'm a huge fan of both his novels and his blogging.

This is one of many reasons you should use a password of some kind that you keep inside of your head to unlock your phone rather than a biometric that people can use to unlock it against your will.

How is that different from the usual way of having a password as your way of accessing your phone?

If I were the Iranian leadership I'd want to develop a nuclear arsenal yesterday. It's the only way to really deter Israeli or American aggression. As an American myself I'd appreciate the resulting reduction in the likelihood of our going to war against Iran.

psychothumbs OP ,

Yeah exactly - the proposal here is to have a driver-owned worker cooperative run the app.

psychothumbs OP ,

It has already been done, that's what the article is about: https://drivers.coop/

Currently based in NYC, but getting ready for a big launch in Minneapolis in response to the incumbent rideshare companies pulling out of the city in protest of increased rideshare regulation. Big opportunity to seize some marketshare without needing that much startup capital if your better financed competitors are removing themselves from that part of the market.

psychothumbs OP ,

Yeah I think it's pretty much just in NYC for now, with a big launch in Minneapolis in progress. Hopefully they get to Denver soon!
