Your dumbfuckery is self debunking, stalking McCarthyite cocksucker. All fresh corpses, found next to donated Russian rations or with their hands tied behind their backs with white armbands used to signify non-aggression to Russian forces. You're only highlighting your shit for brains when the CIA adjacent WaPo has told you of Nazi death squads and Bucha fits their MO. Nazis who are collapsing on all fronts and your cope is Russia lost a plane.

You might be thinking of Coma? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0...

It's similar only instead of growing the bodies, some patients are intentionally put into comas when having surgery. A company charged with caring for the coma patients then harvests the organs for other people for fun and profit. I remember it being a pretty good 70's investigation thriller movie.

Sorry but it's 2026 and this just means embarrassed conservative.

True.

Biden constantly reached out to conservatives

Because Biden could out-conservative any five Republicans combined.

He appointed a very moderate AG

"Moderate" also just means "embarrassed conservative."

even with the very obviously illegal Mar-A-Lago documents

Bzzt! Sitting presidents have total declassification powers. Trump could take and unilaterally declassify anything he wanted, period. And Trump did work with the Feds to secure them in a locked room in a residence with around the clock secret service protection. Now do VP Biden storing classified documents all over unsecured places, and Hillary with her illegal email server. Which she set up just two years after savaging the Bush Administration for using private email.

Echoing this, the timeline they are proposing allows for Alan Tudyk's "Wash" to be a part of the storytelling. That character was a fan favorite, which is why his arc on Serenity was so impactful.

RIP Ron Glass.

His absence would obviously not be addressed in this very early announcement. I'm not totally sure how I'd feel about it, but using AI to recreate his voice either as a character (for the sake of continuity) or as a narrator is something I think I'd be okay with. If it was with his family's blessing, of course. But there are many that are vehemently opposed to such a thing, and I understand that too.

You've over simplifying some very complicated things.

Nothing about this is remotely complicated. At all.

I have zero love for America or Israel, but Iran has been a globally very dangerous shithole since its move to a theocracy in 1979 and it's rule by a single supreme leader.

Which is still all your fault for overthrowing their secular democracy in 1953. Go yell at a mirror.

The threat it posed goes far beyond Israel

Iran hasn't attacked another country for centuries.

which is why largely most of the world banded together to prevent those lunatics from developing their nuclear program.

Iran has no nuclear weapons program. YOU are the lunatic necon.

again, false statement.

the remote ops do NOT 'drive' the car 100% of the time. what percentage? we dont know but I'd guess its less than 10%, probably even lower.

nothing is level 5 yet. get that in your head. no one claims level 5, either.

what I'd like to know is how often waymo needs 'help' remotely vs tesla vs any other.

I suspect that tesla that is sensor-poor needs 10x as much help as waymo.

Poland pays daily fine to the EU for refusing to accept "refugees". Poland took more than 2 million from Ukraine; they have plenty other immigrant diasporas. They just refuse to take people who's obvious idea is to parasitise, leach and hate on the society that accepts them!

The EU has trade and manufacturing quotas (yay, free market!). These quotas are used as political blackmail. If a state does not conform to the EU's policies of self destruction, they are punished financially via that mechanism. And other mechanisms, including election interference.

Poland is major victim of all these games. Not only they are not on profit by being in EU anymore; it is a loss. And despite that, they are moving ahead. Several years from now the GDP per capita of theirs will exceed that oft he UK. Poland has the lowest crime rate in the whole of the EU. As a woman in Poland you have orders of magnitude less risk of being molested than Londonistan, for example. Or Frankfurtsan, Berlinstan, Parisstan and Amsterdamstan.

The only time you hear in the "mainstream media" of Western Europe about Easter Europe in general and Poland in particular are regular "two minutes of hate" regarding, for example, the abominable idea of Poland (and others) of....gasp...making more babies! What?! Or the Bulgarians summarily rejecting the cancellation of women and the sexualisation of children in the so-called Istanbul convention. And so on...

So, screw you, arrogant westerner! We, in Eastern Europe, are the ones keeping the liberal values of Europe alive. After all, we experienced in the 20th century the pleasures of both systems that sought to replace classical liberalism - the commies and the fascist. And we want neither of them. And that is why your wokistany authoritarian brainwashed mind hates us.

Not really. Our kids are bailing out of it too.

Just the other day I was at Christmas party by friends with two boys - 17 and 15. We spent the afternoon playing Teken 3 on a PS1 simulator, playing music and discussing Minecraft visual enhancement mods. The last thing these kids saw and greatly enjoyed was Shingeki-no Kyojin.

They quit on cinema after seeing the old Indiana Jones films with dad, and then seeing the last abomination of that franchise.

Myself, I just celebrated the 10th anniversary of my boycott, which began on 25th December 2015. Having just seen the Force awakens, I walked out of the cinema and said "never again". And that is from someone with almost 1000 DVD's and Blue-ray's in my collection! I have spent many thousands on these people over the years. I have tracked rare movies and paid 30-40 euros 20 years ago for a single film! I can watch and enjoy the masterpieces of cinema from Fritz Lang to David Fincher (the last quality director, IMO, and he is in his 60-ies).

So what about "you are not the target audience" remark? How can I listen to music that is 400 years old and enjoy movies made decades before I was born? Are all modern people degenerated mentally so the "creators" are following suit? Of course not! Oh, the fun I had introducing Millennials and Zoomers to old movies! They love them!

And you all know what is the real reason behind that downfall. Politics, propaganda, and social engineering. They try to change the culture, morality and history of the Western world ala 1984. And people rejected it, slowly at first, and masse now. Speaking of 1984, you don't need to look any further than the "re-make" of Animal farm, just recently shat out by the abominable morons that are left in that industry (everyone else has been cancelled) to see my point.

his followers often hurt and do worse things, when sent in a direction from their leader.

d's dont do that, but r's do. that's the whole reason why congress is frozen solid. they all want to LIVE and not have to pay 10x for security when the leader says 'this person should be taught a lesson'. in so many words.

its not that they have or dont have backbone; but when thugs are sent to kill you, the notion of free speech is meaningless.

this is the key. his followers are killers. his ice gang are losers who cant get any other job and just love to bash heads.

its ALL about violence. I understand them being afraid.

but its their fucking fault for empowering him in the first place!

batt swap is a great idea and its been done well. tesla tried it for a very short while and gave up. too bad.

one use case not always mentioned: you run out of juice and you are too far from a charging station or maybe you are in a hurry or just dont mind paying the convenience fee for a local drive-up swap. yes, they can do that. you can be on your way with a 'full tank' in very short order. no idea how common it is; usually you drive to one of the swap garages and it guides you in, you stay in your car the whole time, robots lower the old batt and raise up the new one.

the kinks are worked out.

dont bash on this cause its china. it IS and will continue to be a good idea.

china pulled it off since it was NOT adverse to ev's. in fact, they see ev's as their future, so the gov was eager to install all the infra they could.

during the very early T days, we still, as a country (usa) were going full speed ahead. car companies were doing well and we, the workers, did well.

then, the presidency changed and all went to hell after that. he picked his gas buddies over ev tech and the country is now suffering for it.

I'm 99% batt swap will never hit consumer cars in the US. monied interests dont want it. they know its their demise. their argument of '30 minute fillups' goes away with this. and you buy the car sans batt and so you always have a rental batt. you get used to it. upside: you never have a long-term battery that gets bad and bad. all swap batts are maintained so that no one gets a truly bad batt.

when you read the comments, you can see who has an open mind and who is a paid shill for a certain viewpoint.
