They’re afraid that Tesla’s stock price under a rational CEO will suffer a market correction and drop to where it should be. In other words, they want to keep Musk out of fear and greed.

They have an agenda against tabloids, quackery, and pseudoscience.

So you admit they do have a bias against right-wing sources!

Ooh, there’s a fun question:

Would you rather:

An AI handle customer service, or

An overseas call center handle customer service

?

Come on, man. I’m running out of ideas here.

Buy the entire Supreme Court of the United States.

Dunno what I’d do with the other $6.415 billion though. Maybe start buying Congress members?

At least we’ll get giant nude Ana de Armas holograms, right?

…right?

Did you hurt yourself making that leap of logic there, Sparky?

Running a red light in the middle of nowhere with no traffic is a victimless crime.

Intentionally causing additional monetary damages on someone is not. Even if the cardholders didn’t have to pay for his fraud, somebody has to.

Is it solipsistic in here, or is it just me?

Now you’ve gotten your inventory counts off. There’s also a (marginal) cost difference between the two size cartons. Of course, this needs to be balanced against customer satisfaction- there will be a non-zero number of customers who won’t want the upsell or to buy an alternative item, and so the question is how much business would you lose vs how much money you’d make offset with the extra time and corporate headache of reconciling inventory?

Not that Sonic shouldn’t do this, just throwing out some real-world considerations.

Poe’s Law is real, lol.

The worst part is I sat there reading your comment for fifteen minutes thinking, “He can’t be that stupid, can he?” And then I remembered that Trump supporters exist.

No it doesn’t. Here, let me demonstrate:

I’m accusing you of showing up to my house and kissing my dog (the gay one, not the straight one.)

There. Is that the truth? According to you it must be, because

Accusation = truth

So because it’s true, I demand you restore my dog’s honor by gay marrying him.

And that’s literally how it works in the US. You can make any allegation you want when filing a civil suit and a judge must decide the validity of your claims. Teixiera has given his side of the story when he filed suit; that’s all we can say for certain at this point. He could be 100% right, he could be bending the truth a little bit, or he could be completely lying about the whole thing- we don’t currently have any more information than that.

Yes, yes I did. That doesn’t change anything I said. You’ve only repeated his claims (which his complaint can say literally anything), we don’t have Mozilla’s side, and he shouldn’t be saying a word about this suit to the press.

Any decent lawyer will tell you to shut the fuck up once you’ve filed a suit, so as I see it there are three possible scenarios here:

1. He’s too stupid to listen to his lawyers.
2. His lawyers are too stupid to advise him to shut up.
3. They’re trying a public pressure campaign against Mozilla to get Mozilla to capitulate before their case goes too far. They’re hoping that the headlines of “Mozilla hates cancer patients!” will cause enough bad press that Mozilla will want to get the case over with quicker by settling sooner, especially if Teixiera doesn’t have a very strong case.

Yeah, I’m gonna wait a bit before bringing out the pitchforks.

A plaintiff in a civil suit can allege anything they want, but that doesn’t mean they’re being 100% truthful. Any lawyer will slant the facts as much as possible to make their client look as injured as they can to garner the most sympathy- that’s just lawyering 101. We have his version of events but don’t have Mozilla’s, but the fact that he’s publicly shit-talking the company (rather than let the legal process play out) doesn’t cast him in a good light IMO.

“Dissolution” is the word you’re looking for.

I would have taught Google everything they wanted to know about Reddit and Redditors for only $30 million.

It certainly had more chemical energy added to it, so… yes?

You mean a buttbuttin?

Edit: Boost for Android won’t let me post it either.

Regressives should be silenced. Anyone who says “We need to return to a time when X” really just means “I don’t like that my race/gender/nation/sexual preference/religion doesn’t have as much control as it used to”.
