Linkedin is a fucking cesspool. I refuse to participate.

Apparently my background is impressive enough that someone stole it and made a profile of me. To what end I do not know.

Yet you participate in a society.

Stop saying accident when you really mean crash. Especially in the context of drunk driving.

Drunk driving is a conscious decision, not an accident.

... is it?

There's no obligation to purchase such cars.

Would they be on the hook for same?

Is that not covered on contingency?

The author has published on the topic and engaged in conversations on HN about the topic.

They're clearly ok with the topic being discussed and shared.

Moments notice!? Nothing?

It's already out there. You don't need to ask.

You understand expected value right?

I'm not mathemagician, but a tiny fraction of a billion with a b dollars is worth filing.

If nothing else it gives us all an exciting news cycle.

Equitable tolling??

Might as well sue.

Most people will continue to be useful idiots borrowing money they don't have to buy cars to impress people they don't like.

Same. Was just discussing modern safety features and over reliance on the same with my son and telling him he will learn and test in a manual transmission.

New cars are a want not a need. Well designed properly maintained cars can last a long long time. I ran into an old guy at my local coffee shop who has 550k on his 240 DL. Had to double take to make sure it wasn't klicks instead of miles. Chatted to him a bit, engine and transmission are all original and he gets notes on his car regularly with phone numbers of people who want to buy it.

In our house we have two Saturn SLs at 100 and 130k, a Saturn SW at 200k and a Sienna at 270k. Rounding it out a 2006 and 2016 DL650 V Strom w 66k and 16k.

I cringe at so much new car bullshit. Death of distraction free tactile interfaces with knobs and buttons, and where the fuck is the fucking parking brake?

My vehicles save one of my motor bikes are all over 20 years old.

My cars are all older than this.

None of them have turned into pumpkins.

Why do you own such a vehicle then?

You must not fear it that much.

In a sane world this would be a 1A violation on its face and thrown out by any sensible judge.

We live in interesting times, truly.

What are you doing in VR for fitness?

Why do you feel he is a clown?

It's about goddamn time.

Excited to use this feature in 2-5 years when I can get one cheap.

> UK government insane demands for mandatory OS level client side scanning malware on every device to block all nudity.

The fuck?

My gripe with iPhone is hunting white balance. Always happening when I'm shooting video.

I wonder if newer phones / camera apps are better.

That assertion is not true at all and your comment overall just reeks of Apple apologism.

The average user may not understand the technical details of bokeh but they will certainly have an opinion on what is pleasing to the eye.

"IP-encumbered seeds" is a wild phrase.

There is a strong push in many sectors to stop using the word accident, so your assertion that this is a point no one agrees with is false.

> Will there be meatballs?

> Maybe.

They died from car crashes.

Not accidents.

Fixing this broken language and attitude is a step towards ending these deaths.

Really? What's the reasoning there?

Reality distortion field, yea. Haven't heard that one for awhile.

We can't mention that?

> There is no crease at all!

Put down the kool aid mate.
