Kansas Supreme Court strikes down anti-abortion law
Coreece replied to ryoder's topic in Speakers Corner
You may or may not be being deliberately obtuse, but you are clearly being obtuse. I did not say that. I said that the " millions of women against abortion at the front of the pro life movement" are doing nothing to show that they feel this is important and are doing nothing to indicate they want it to happen. I simply said they would agree with it, why wouldn't they? There's no reason to do anything because it's not really an issue. It's just another ineffective internet meme that doesn't sound so clever once you actually think about it. -

Uhhhh......That has very little to do with what you said. Just to remind you.... "I'm sure the millions of women against abortion at the front of the pro life movement would agree." is what you typed. Ok, so why do you think they would disagree with the concept of a father supporting their baby/baby's mother during their pregnancy? -

You seem to be sure of a lot of things about women. I don't see any of them speaking up in agreement. Ok, maybe they don't want the support of their baby's father during their pregnancy. -

I'm sure the millions of men against abortion would not. Ya, if they're deadbeats like I already said. Their stance on abortion really wouldn't matter. It seems most men don't have a problem supporting their wife/girlfriend through their pregnancy and beyond, but maybe I'm wrong. -
I guess people got bored waiting for the nuclear war with NK that we were supposed to have. Now it's Iran.

Or maybe she just makes an easy target to attack democrats and liberal ideology, much like Trump makes an easy target to attack republicans and conservative ideology.

first they compare a fetus to a cancerous tumor, now they compare it to a cake. I guess that's an improvement. -

I'm sure the millions of women against abortion at the front of the pro life movement would agree. The only ones that probably would disagree are deadbeats that don't really give a shit about anything, including abortion. -
She really shouldn't talk about her constituents that way. At least more intelligent than a sea sponge, apparently. Saying whatever dumb shit you want just to get attention and then calling people idiots for taking it the wrong way doesn't sound like a new idea, it's sounds like Trump. . . .So, to borrow your quote about Candice Owen: "She may well have some good ideas. But if this is representative of her thought process, she's a loon."

Collective Bargaining - Lyft - Uber and a coming strike.
Coreece replied to turtlespeed's topic in Speakers Corner
Yep, a company with a negative public perception and a revolving door of pissed off employees. Next! -
I live at 9 and Harper right behind South Lake. Trying to bail out of here within the next year to find warmer climate. Hopefully Charleston. I know it's your own personal business, and I don't mean to pry, but why build a garage then? Seems like you'd be taking a pretty sizable loss. Either way, good luck.

Ya, if 60% means almost everyone. . .

Looks like out of a team of 40 players, 6 minorities went and 9 didn't. Nobody has reported on the whites that didn't show up. Newsworthy stuff right there. . .
-
Ya, never mind that traitor J.D Martinez in the front and that big black uncle tom in the back. I think I see several Asians and Hispanics as well. Maybe those guys are just minority props that AOC was talking about.

I'm just amusing myself. Apologies.

Well, there is the "Social Security" thread where he admits similar feels. Well, then there is the "Social Security" thread. . .

A couple weeks ago my regular unwashed and mutated dirty x-men celery jumped from $1.99 to 4.99, so ya, I bought the organic for $3.99. I don't particularly feel good about that. But the chicken noddle soup was good.

That went away a long time before that. Well, you have to understand that society's collective memory only goes back so far and keeps getting shorter, much like it's attention span, which I believe is now at 8 seconds.

I always felt that in today's society, driving was more important to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness than many of the top 10 rights in the constitution. If you had to, I'm sure many here would easily choose the ability to drive to work everyday over the right to a speedy trial or owning a gun. Hopefully in the future, AVs will take the power away from the government to holds one's licensing privileges and therefore one's life at ransom.
-
I don't doubt that will happen. The reason that keeps coming to mind is that people who switch back and forth between self driving and manually controlled vehicles will simply forget that they're not in a self driving car. I'd also add that the unpredictable variability of real intelligence is a nuisance and poses a threat to the safety, reliability and harmony of superior artificial intelligence.

That is until manually driving a killing machine is deemed too dangerous and outlawed!

Only if your market is exclusively incurious money-is-king luddites. 361,000 EV's sold in the US in 2018 (up 81%) And within 6 years or so GM is expected to sell a million EVs per year, which is still a very small part of the market, but even entry into that low level of mass market success/profitability will be due to reasons other than to "save the planet," and will need to be marketed as such. Yeah, that market is also into essential oils, aromatherapy, himalayan salt lamps, detox foot pads, colon cleansing and refraining from eating anything labeled with ingredients they can't pronounce, like Dihydrogenmonoxide. And while that represents a strong niche of susceptible people willing to overpay for placebo, it's still makes up a very small part of the market. To my original point, I think we'd be further along if it was not for the divisive politicizing of AGW that IMO has turned green tech marketing into a liability, so why take the chance? Better off to just market it as some cool new shit that will make your life better, since those already sold on green tech will buy it anyway. I think the real motivation into the EV market for companies like GM is the promising opportunities for AVs that offer unparalleled benefits for consumers while increasing profitability tenfold. Ride-sharing AVs are expected to bring in $300K per vehicle over it's lifetime which is why PAVE was created by practically every key player in the industry to educate the public. I honestly believe that in the not so distant future, we honestly won't have a need to own a car with the abundance of on-demand AVs ready to pick us up anytime, anywhere - or hell, why not just have it drive thru the "AV Loading Lane" to pick up your groceries, prescriptions, fast food, etc. and deliver it to your house for you?

Markets largely are incurious, which is why it's typically more difficult to find investors that are willing to put up the extra cash to educate the public about products that need to be explained rather extensively, especially those that solve a problem you're not trying to fix or even knew you had.

Nah, you just have to know how to market it. "NASCAR GREEN SERIES - RACE AGAINST TIME" - Sponsored by Tampax? or "NASCAR THUNDER BOLT SERIES - RIDE THE LIGHTNING!" - Sponsored by Voltage IPA? The worst thing for green technology is to market it as green technology.
