Since the government can theoretically access the location of everyone's phone, wouldn't it be unsafe for an undocumented immigrant to have a phone?

    LMAO!!

    • If you're right through manipulation (propaganda, marketing, etc), are you really right?

    Jump

  • Your question makes no sense if you put yourself at the receiving end of the manipulation.

    In other words:

    The one who tells thing can be right (or wrong). The one who is told things does not have that question.

    • If you're right through manipulation (propaganda, marketing, etc), are you really right?

    Jump

  • So you manipulate people so that they should believe you. And if it works, they think you are right. Now you ask if you are really right?

    No, you are not. You are laughable.

    • Optimus robot is less off putting than Elon 😂

    Jump

  • Everything that Elon designs is made for ONE purpose ONLY: for him being able to sell it.

    If you are asking isn't that the same with all products?

    Well, most normal products are made to be useful. Regarding sale, they are meant to sell themselves because they are useful.

    Then there are some kinds of products that need professional sellers (industrial machines, 'special' brands of kitchenware...). But here it is restricted to the person Elon, yes, he himself. If he believes in it, he makes it, and everything else does not count.

    • Am I overreacting regarding leaving a friend alone on Christmas?

    Jump

  • My wife asked her brother if we could invite her

    She did the right thing. Congratulations!

    Am I overreacting?

    Overreacting is a term that describes the emotional side of things. We do not know if you overreacted.

    On the practical side, it is truly an option to do what you suggested.

    BUT: you need to talk to your wife about it first.

    The current plan happens on her side of the family, and so you should never try to cancel that plan without her full agreement.

    • Your partner is accused of corruption, would you ever be able to see them the same way again?

    Jump

  • Every defendant deserves NOT to get prejudged.

    Your own husband deserves that, too, and hopefully so much more.

  • Overuse of the word 'unforgivable' is unforgivable.

  • Oh, come on... it's everywhere in the news for several months now, because all of the Big Techs suddenly (!) want to do that.

    • What's the most legally grey situation you've ever been in?

    Jump

  • Can't tell, because I am very good at forgetting such things.

    • why is my whisky evaporating?

    Jump

  • The water condensates after evaporating, the alcohol doesn't.

    • In a more complex future world where media is tailored to you, how are you entertained differently?

    Jump

  • something you had no idea you liked.

    What a great description of creativity!

  • Not sure if I get all the ideas from your question right, but I would guess it comes down to some feature rich physical/robotic toys of the NSFW category.

    • What are the best anti-work movies?

    Jump

  • They Live is about manipulating the masses to consume and be silent. Work is just a small side topic.

    Fight Club is about personal power over people. Domination.

    Big Lebowski is your typical loser story. A fairy tale.

    • Do you use the popcorn button?

    Jump

  • These are 2 turning knobs. One for the strength (nearly always full on), one for the time.

    • Do you use the popcorn button?

    Jump

  • Mine has only 1 button, to open the door.

    And I like it this way.

    • Should "Bad People" deserve a respectful burial?

    Jump

  • I personally don't even know how to answer this question myself. Like the funeral isn't even for the dead. Its for the living.

    You are exactly on the right track.

    It is only for the living. The dead one is not affected in any way anymore, whatever you do.

    So to me, the question seems like, should the relatives of a bad person be allowed to see the corpse treated respectfully.

    Turn the question around and it becomes easy:

    Should the relatives of a bad person get punished along with him? Obviously not. They deserve the full, normal respect. So let them have the burial as they wish it.

  • If there's too much power the car will start driving you.

    I have learned this from my mother.

    When she was young and already married, it was the time when women could not drive cars very good. At least not as good as all the men. At least that was what the tradition and every man said, and they had many such stories to tell.

    So my dad got a BMW 5 series then.

    People in the village started to warn my mother, for serious! Be careful. Maybe better don't drive it at all. This thing could easily run away with you.

    My mother stayed super cool and told them nothing is going to happen, it needs me first to press down the pedal. And although she really did not drive it as often as my dad did, she was a good and safe driver.

  • they have insane amounts of horsepower and instant torque

    No, no. The car is not driving you. You are driving the car. It must do what you want.

    If you let the car drive you, then no wonder you are dead quite soon. So, maybe these numbers are indeed telling something about Tesla drivers...?
