Where I live you can right now go to Tesla's website and buy a car with "Full Self-Driving Capability" with a small print that includes the disclaimer that it doesn't make the vehicle autonomous, for whatever that's worth...

You're assuming that they're honest about their reasons, which is not the case.
The main message of the film (besides being a 2h ad for Mattel) is gender equality and female empowerment.
This threatens these people more than homosexuality, but I imagine even for them saying "we don't want our women to even imagine a world where they're not subservient to men" would be a tough sell.
Far fewer people are willing to stand up to defend the LGBT community so they're a convenient scapegoat ('conservatives' will always find a group small enough to target in order to push their unpopular policies, it just works).
It's mad!
I bought a laptop, from Amazon, something I do at most every 2-3 years.
For months since Amazon has been spamming me with laptop offers. I don't see what the best case scenario here is, I return the one I bought and get a new one?
Holy cow, is that a thing?!
Some stuff in the US is pretty cool and money is nice and all, but then I have friends in senior positions within big tech who have only 12 days of paid time off which is real shitty.
At least they can work remotely for a few days so they get a couple of decent holidays, but that just means they can never fully disconnect.
And they can just use the healthcare system here when they're back, which is nice for them but I'm sure not everyone has that luxury.
You mean that every American citizen is automatically issued a photocard ID free of charge after they reach a certain age?
Because that's how it works in most of Europe for example. Some countries mandate that you must carry it at all times in case the police requires you to identify yourself. You use this card to vote, and you can also travel freely within the EU with it (loads of people don't even own a passport for this reason).
That's against Google's terms of use, you're not supposed to replace an app with something different.
If you had downloaded an app and all of a sudden it changes into something else, you'd be pretty displeased. Imagine if Facebook the company suddenly changed the Instagram app into an app for Facebook, they can do most of the same things, but it's not the same.
Plus it would be fair for the developer to get new payments for lifetime subscriptions, it's a new app which is significantly more work than just maintaining an existing one.
Having followed SpaceX for a very long time, I think that Elon kinda figured early on how to get engineers excited for a lofty goal and give them sufficient room to fail and innovate, whilst squeezing every drop of work out of them.
So he was a good hype man for things he broadly understood and he was willing to put loads of money into making it successful.
But following a long tradition of people who are actually excellent in a narrow field, he convinced himself that he can translate this into imposing weird and frankly really stupid philosophy onto the world. The Bloombergs and the Carsons of the world have already failed at this, happily it looks like he will too. Not that he'll learn anything from it, just hope he goes away and stops trying.
Yeah, one of the last trophies that are actually works of art worth something in and of themselves.
This one will be an iconic one especially because it's been broken.
When? I've been active there for a long time and don't recall a period when it wasn't allowed.
MotoGP spoilers are currently allowed on the MotoGP subreddit.
"2017 Singapore GP Results Discussion" threads do not rise to 'All'. I'm quite involved into F1 but even then I seldom engage with generic threads.
Be honest, you don't either, you're more likely to interact with a "Hamilton wins 2017 Singapore GP after 1st lap crash between Vettel, Verstappen, and Raikkonen". And that's why it's these threads and not stickied ones make it to All.
Because I'm avoiding work at the moment, I went to the old site, sorted by top 'this week' and there were 137 threads rated higher than the top official discussion (post-quali if you're curious). Most of the top ones included spoilers.
So if we were to not allow spoilers we'd severely restrict discussion, in particular among less hardcore fans.
I have a separate app which has F1, MotoGP communities blocked, and keywords filtered. I use it on race weekends when I can't watch live. If you want to engage with this community, watch the race live, otherwise avoid it, we're here to interact with other F1 fans when the interest is highest - during the race weekends.
That's one of the coolest and most iconic trophies on the calendar.
Silverstone for example had a shitty faux-carbon fibre trophy that survived the fall but it's really nothing special. They probably spent like £500 on it and it's forgettable.
If you have the chance to visit one of the F1 teams the Hungary trophies really stand out as actual works of art.
Ah I see, now that you've been proven wrong you're pretending you asked a different question.
You admit that Tesla advertises a "Full Self-Driving Capability" feature, which is basically what the person you said "source or stfu" to.
Whether or not the feature was used in this instance is not what we're discussing here.
We can have this discussion if you're feeling like you're up for it in good-faith, I think both are true that people are overall terrible at the activity of driving so more driver aids are overall better, but also current driver aids are very limited and drivers are not necessarily great at understanding and working within those limits.
They're not the only ones, but Tesla is really the worst offender at overstating their cars' capabilities and setting people up for failure - like in this case.
