He has a rule set on incoming emails to replace "human capital" with "human cattle". Gives him a little thrill every time he sees it.

That's just unamerican. Industry should be publicly subsidised and privately profitable. How else do you expect to keep the middle class in check?

Ahh, the Mystique. I also had one. No texture filtering, no mipmapping, no alpha blending, no fog. 3D looked almost identical to software rendering and rarely ran much better. It basically achieved similar visuals to the original PlayStation - 2 years after the PlayStation launched - but the number of games the Mystique actually supported was tiny. There were only 12 Matrox Simple Interface API games, and the D3D support was atrocious; most D3D games simply didn't work at all.

Best you can say about it was its 2D acceleration was great - good image quality and really smooth in Windows, so it paired well with a real 3D accelerator like a Voodoo.

Ah yes, the S3 ViRGE, the world's first 3D decelerator.

More than the idiot with the 20000 lumen Denial-of-Eyesight headlights behind you? Feels like the autodimming feature of the screen would help more than hinder.

If the Republicans are suddenly kicking up a fuss about this then there's something else going on that they don't want you to notice (and that is always the case). It's always distraction; just pollute the media with conspiracy nonsense so a credulous public is looking the other way while the Government fucks them over.

Hi Elon, nice of you to join us.

Chinese cars sold in the UK and Europe have to pass EU safety standards, which are significantly more stringent than US standards. I can drive for 30 mins and I'll see loads of Jaecoo, BYD and MG cars on the road here in Scotland. Jaecoo, for example, offers a 7 years/100k miles warranty and 8 years/100,000 miles on the batteries. MG offer 7 years/80,000 miles and BYD offer 6 years/100k miles with options to extend. So, yes, they do safety tests and, yes, they support their cars.

There were problems with local availability of parts initially, which led to sky-high insurance premiums with Chinese models, but those issues seem to have largely been resolved - or at least are no longer regularly reported in the media - so the issues you raise don't appear to be valid in 2026, at least not here in the UK.

You may be (read: are definitely) being flooded with FUD propaganda by the US automotive industry.

Pollute, baby, pollute.

Dear AC, it's not privatized in Mississippi. That's what TFA is about. Mississippi SB 2838 which would have allowed alcohol retailers to purchase from out-of-state got voted through almost unanimously but then died in Senate Conference a couple of weeks ago, hence the State of Mississippi still holds a monopoly on the supply of alcohol in the state.

Did you get your "information" from ChatGPT or do you have a brain injury?

From where, pray tell, did the state get the money to buy the booze?

The submitters copy and paste and the editors add spelling mistakes.

Question: why do they need any of that at all? Why have your employees do this stupid shit? What does it accomplish? Can the bros really not think of a better way to spend $500k? Does this really enhance your product? Does this really help people get their work done and gel as a team? Or... is it really so the CEO can say "hey guys, guess what we did, lol (not me, i was faking E.Coli so i could stay in my room)" to his cadre of other insufferable douchebags at the next conference?

Exactly. WP have had years to sort this shit out, but they were too afraid of cannibalising their existing base. I genuinely hope this gains support from plugin authors and wipes WP out.
