  1. In the movie "American Sniper" Bradley Cooper as Chris Kyle gives a speech about how there are three types of people in the world: sheep, wolves, and sheepdogs. Sheepdogs protect the sheep from the wolves. I don't disagree with the aspiration to be a defender of those who are weaker, but a generation of military and faux-military meatheads latched on to this and made it their entire identity. They carry everywhere and brag about being constantly on alert, scoping out every room they enter. They make a big deal of never sitting with their back to a door and assessing the threat level of every person they encounter. It's bullshit posturing.
  2. I say this as a military veteran who retired after a 20-year career on active duty… I can’t stand Chris Kyle “sheepdog” bros. They are only slightly more annoying than “Mama Bears.”
  3. Waymo’s not going to fuck you, dude. J/K… good info. Thanks for sharing.
  4. Apparently they can recognize more than “STOP” to opt-out.
  5. Jamie will not be a regular due to scheduling issues. Coach Beard and Roy Kent are in as EPs for the show, but not confirmed as cast members. I'm all in on keeping Hannah Waddingham employed and on my TV screen.
  6. To be fair, it doesn’t say which way he bet.
  7. Feels like our normal supply of aggy misery has been spiked with some of that Chinese fentanyl over the past four months.
  8. Go for it. That shot of Rosie will only remind me of how hot Dana Delany was in that movie.
  9. The two fatality number comes from the Forbes article that Pig quoted above. Other sources report the same. 3 Billion + miles driven comes from Tesla letter to shareholders in January.
  10. It's piss.
  11. Auto-pilot ≠ FSD. Two fatalities have occurred with FSD engaged. Over three billion miles have been driven with FSD. Waymo has had nearly 700 accidents and one fatality with somewhere around 25 million miles driven.
  12. I stand corrected on the freeway issue. Waymo has been testing on freeways in Phoenix since January 2024 and just moved onto LA freeways this January. I'm curious as to the measure used to state that Waymo is "WAY ahead" of Tesla. For the bolded, this is continuously referenced as some horrible unchecked danger to the public. The data do not bear out this argument.
  13. Yes - minus the doom scrolling. The system still requires supervision, so the interior camera monitors the driver’s eyes to ensure they are watching the road. I no longer have to keep my hands on the wheel, though.
  14. You'll all be shocked to hear that I disagree slightly with Jeff's answer. The question is too general. Waymo and Tesla are taking two different approaches. At the moment, Waymo is focused on an approach that is trying to solve for autonomous driving limited to surface streets in urban areas. Their solution is only applicable in geo-fenced areas that have been meticulously mapped by LIDAR. Tesla is aiming to build a more generally applicable autonomous driving solution that is not limited to pre-mapped areas. Waymo is more advanced on the path towards a limited level 4/5 certification. It's arguable that Waymo is more advanced in its commercial application of its chosen solution. One could argue that from a revenue standpoint, Tesla is on par with their FSD package purchases and monthly subscriptions. It's also arguable that Waymo is more advanced in it's practical application. There are significantly more Tesla FSD vehicles on the road than Waymo vehicles. And finally, it's arguable that Waymo has a more advanced technical solution at this point. My FSD Tesla does low speed, non-highway driving right now. It can also drive on the highway, which Waymo does not. All that said... Musk is running the company into the ground and Tesla's FSD could likely be a casualty of this shitshow.
  15. WU is best now when they use Jost as a punching bag and Lord Gaga nailed it this week. Wickline may have a fanbase, but she has to pivot more to the mainstream to stick. Sarah Sherman has done this masterfully. She had a very narrow niche with her comedy prior to SNL, but she has adjusted to more conventional comedy while still working in her weird shit from time to time. And now she's my favorite cast member.
  16. Heavy metals in Samoas you say?
  17. An age-old debate.
  18. For "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" fans: Before Charlie's Mom There was Miss Yvonne RIP Lynne Marie Stewart
  19. My wife and I really like our local Regal cinema. It's $23/mo for unlimited movies and they have several 21+ theaters upstairs with recliners and seat service for food and concessions. No loud kids. Smaller crowd in smaller theater, so chances for a random asshole ruining the experience are lower. Plus, ticket prices for the 21+ theaters are more expensive which weeds out a bunch of people who are more interested in their phones than the experience. We average two movies a month.
