    No reduction in accidents from self-driving cars, insurance institute says

    I sort of have the auto pilot on my ‘22 Bronco Sport. Use it on the more empty 407 toll highway when I take my mom to see my brother and his family. It’s handy but I don’t trust it to drive me from A to B on its own. A few times with the rain the auto assist would briefly disengaged its purpose for 2-3 secs before connecting again. It keeps you in the lane, turns the wheel to follow the lines and with adjustable cruise control. My hands never leave the wheel and if you try for like say 3-5 secs without, it will warn you to put your hands back on the wheel.

    Also, it's BS that the Academy did a little clip show about stunt guys and how they risk their lives and how essential their work is in the same show where they bring up that the first new category in 20 years is "achievement in casting." I think casting is extremely important, and it might be a round about way for blockbusters to get some credit for their amazing casts. I can just imagine the casting director getting an Oscar for Iron Man while the performance goes unrecognized. Still, stunt guys should have been at the top of the list if they're adding categories. Not only that, but they should retroactively give out awards. Back up a dump truck of overdue statues for Buster Keaton and Jackie Chan and Tom Cruise, and all the guys whose names we don't know.


    I’ve been saying this for fucking years and they need one choreography. I wouldn’t that being split in 2 parts but would love to see it for fight/dance. Look at I’m Just Ken there and what they did in the movie. Then you have dance numbers with the slight new revival of musicals in mainstream movies again, but they can also be random funny shit moments in a comedy like Barbie. Plus you are seeing a lot more intense fights on screen like The Raid, Winter Soldier, IP Man, Kingsman and more. These people deserves their respect too, along with stunt people since they already risk their lives for a moment of movie magic.

    Votto signed a minor league deal with the Jays. Going to be a bit weird seeing him playing in anything but a Reds uni.


    I love this pic he released. Don’t worry, they wear Red on July 1st.

    So when Trump wins the election this year, how will 2028 play out? Will he accept that only gets two terms or will he try and hold the WH hostage again? I'm not sold Biden beats him again this year. 


    He’ll have control of the Supreme Court and find some sort of language of no more than 2 “Consecutive” Terms be served. He didn’t win for 4 years and so he didn’t win (shocking all to hear he lost) and thus run for another 4 years come 2028. While still serving his state sentence in Georgia

    "The Future", as you envisioned it as a child = Amazingly enlightened, with a bold emphasis on exploration and discovery from the stars to virtual worlds presently beyond us.

     

    "The Future", when you final arrived at it = A circus largely focused on marketable buzz rather than substantive progress, run by absolutely douchebags, who have many douchebag friends that assure them that others just don't understand their genius!

    Maybe AI doesn’t stand for Artificial but for Alien Intelligence. We’re just slow at progressing through their tech for us to enjoy. . . .or be slowly taken over like a Granny Goodness Headset.
