  • Alameda County Superior Court Judge Noël Wise said Wednesday the workers should be allowed to proceed with class action status because Tesla’s alleged “pattern or practice” of failing to take reasonable steps to prevent discrimination was a common issue for all the Black workers at the Fremont plant.

    Sounds pretty fucked up and newsworthy but should probably be it's own post. Not sure what this has to do with the loan.

  • They didn't give it they lent it, along with billions of dollars to other automakers:

    The Obama Administration will lend Tesla Motors $465 million to build an electric sedan and the battery packs needed to propel it

    ...

    Energy Secretary Steven Chu announced that the Department of Energy is also lending $5.9 billion to Ford to retool factories in five states. Nissan will receive $1.6 billion to refurbish a factory in Tennessee to produce electric cars.

    The loan was paid back 9 years early in 2013.

  • Hi, I've noticed you used the term "straight armed salute". This phrase assumes intention behind the act that we can't know as it depends on the internal thoughts of the person. Please change it to the more journalistic "gesture" instead.

  • No no guys you don't understand, he's on the spectrum. You know how you always see those people on the spectrum always doing the na- uhhh ... Roman salute, right? No? Oh right because that's FUCKING BULLSHIT. On behalf of this person on the spectrum kindly fuck right the hell off with that fucked up shit.

  • I remember reading about the implications of overlapping fire seasons a while ago. Pretty terrifying stuff honestly. I think it was back when Bill Shorten was proposing a big investment in firefighting.

    I'm really sorry you had to experience those fires up close, that would have been horrifying to the point of being life altering. Tasmania is a beautiful part of Australia at least.

  • Not sure if they are on sale or not but a few staple RTS games that are definitely worth checking out imo:

    • Command and Conquer series
    • Age of Empires specifically 2 and 4
    • Supreme Commander (with the Forged Alliance expansion)

    Probably way more, RTS isn't a major staple of what I play but these titles are pretty diverse and will give a good taste of some of the genres best IMO. Of course Starcraft as well but I don't think that's on steam.
