Active cooling.
It is! Until you try to secure it. Then it isn't.
And 1/3 the price. If you bought it because it was on sale, doesn't that mean you're at least somewhat price sensitive? I don't think you should feel bad about your purchase.
It says in the article.
And if enough incarcerated people and non-incarcerated people collectively believe a thing, what makes the beliefs of the non-incarcerated special given that the beliefs are the same?
By what we can assume is your reasoning based on your dismissal, if two thirds of the entire population believed that a thing should be legal but half of them were incarcerated for doing that very thing, the final third should be able to hold the incarcerated third hostage despite being significantly in the minority on the issue. That's highly irrational.
Is this Poe's law in action?
We can further reconcile them by saying that the entire mechanism for extracting money from the ransom victim is by making them afraid. In this case, afraid of losing their computer systems.

In the section titled "Capabilities and Performance".
CR's idea of goodness is that autopiloting should only ever be allowed on pre-mapped divided highways with restricted access. Since Cadillac's only works on pre-mapped divided highways with restricted access, they get high marks. But that's not better performance. That's worse performance with a geofence to hide the details.
> “Active driving assistance systems should only be able to be activated in low-risk driving environments, void of pedestrians and tricky situations, such as intersections and complicated traffic patterns,” Funkhouser says.
But this ignores the fact that most traffic fatalities happen from human negligence in the places where Cadillac's Supercruise explicitly disables itself, rural roads + intersections. If Cadillac's system only ever activated while parked in your garage they could give it a 10/10 for safety, and it would not make the world safer.
This is basically false and fear mongering.
Herpes has zero consequence for the vast majority of people who have it. Most of the rest just get mild discomfort once a year or every few years. It's so common and harmless that doctors won't even bother testing for it unless you make them.
The connection between HPV and cancer is real but reporting on it overstates its significance. Your risk of developing HPV-related cancer is less than your risk of getting murdered (very low). Also there's an effective vaccine against the most oncogenic strains. If you're worried, get vaccinated.
HIV still sucks, try not to get it, but transmission isn't that easy and, while treatment used to be very expensive, we have cheap and effective post-exposure prophylaxis and the price now for the generic form of standard treatment is less than $100 per year, and life expectancy with HIV is now nearly normal.
Chlamydia and gonorrhea are cured by a single dose of oral antibiotics. Syphilis is also cured by antibiotics.
Not-for-profit manufacturing would have to be done by the government itself, wouldn't it? Otherwise, what other entity would and could actually pay to set that up?
> It is not about not liking someone because he is not manly enough with a cat in his hands...It is about a multitude of unconscious factors
Unconscious factors like thinking that a man with a cat isn't manly or "best".
So, I see truth in their assessment, but I strongly question their conclusion.
> if heterosexual men are looking to get a match, it’s probably a good idea if they save showing off their photos with their favorite felines for the first or second date
Or you might not want to build a relationship with someone who thinks that owning a cat isn't "manly", and this becomes a good filter.
It looks like all of this user's past submissions are too?
Assuming for the moment that this is true...
Even something that is secretly lawful can be entirely immoral and only doable if kept hidden from the public who would otherwise object. The whistleblower's responsibility is to the public, not just their organizational superiors.
It's unhealthy to believe that the law dictates ethics.
The marketing brand for Hummers is girth and power, male sexual machismo in car form, and that isn't changing at all. Nobody evaluates their proxy phallus in terms of fuel consumption. They do it in terms of manly things like horsepower, towing capacity, and taking up a lot of space so that the whole world notices you. Electric vehicle marketing has been all over the "MOAR POWAR!" angle from the very beginning. There's zero reason for a car to accelerate to 60MPH in 3 seconds, but here we are with every electric tank advertising that it flies like a bullet.

This is not good.
