Yes. That something that I always thought about AVs, they could be very safe if they were programmed to follow defensive driving rules, and there would be a big if there.

Yes. This is basically a leveraged buyout with Qatari and Saudi money. Basically, private equity but with money from governments with awful human rights records.

I fear getting my license suspended if I get something like three tickets in less than a year. This is absurd, regardless of cop or not.

The American club owners that wanted to create that European soccer Superleague because the idea of having to develop players(And having face the consequences for playing badly) was completley alien to them.😅 I think that there is problem of culture there.

BeIn took a hit by buying the TV rights for Ligue 1(National soccer league) in France and fans refusing to pay to watch for it. I'm being cynical here, but it's weird how media reporters haven't been mentioning Qatar lately. Maybe there is a sunken cost falacy there, but I'm being cynical on purpose

For a government some billions here and there are nothing, and maybe media operations and the PSG are basically toys for the Royal Family. I went to check Al Jazeera's media show to see if they mention this deal, the production values there are much better than the average of CBS.

I don't know. My impression is that the Qataris aren't making money with BeIn, and wants to expand their media ambitions and they don't have a lot of opportunities to take over a Hollywood studio. Maybe they'll try to bankroll WBD/Paramount for a time, but yes, we don't know.

We don't know, the Qatari government seems to be interested in having a backdoor to own Hollywood studios, but that'll depends on the war with Iran.

These cheeses occupies a niche between industrialized and specialty cheeses(You'll find them in resort towns and tourist areas) so that's maybe why the bragging.

I think that sex changes everything, specially in a very close relationship. And specially if you aren't one of the four guys that coached the team into a Superbowl.

There is a good argument that until vaccines diseases were one of the main cause of casualties in war and that it allowed the larger mobilizations that lead to the WWI, right?(I did not look into any specific literature, sorry).

In theory there could have been leaks or even manipulation. But that would warrant resignation under very different circumstances than we have. Maybe if there were embarrassing text messages or if said journalist was much younger, I don't know.

I think that under different circumstances it would make sense for the Patriots to have abundance of caution. But, yes, I don't think that warrants that.

There are risks of leaking information. I think that if Vrabel hadn't been one of just four people that lead the Patriots to the Superbowl, if there was more material or even if the said reporter was younger he would have to go.

I think that if Vrabel hadn't been one of four people to coach the Patriots into a Superbowl or if there were more revealing material like text messages he would have to go. Journalists need to keep appearances, but a coach having an affair with a journalist is a leak risk.

Congrats on the new kid!

Exclusive: Meta to start capturing employee mouse movements, keystrokes for AI training data Meta is installing new tracking software on U.S.-based employees’ computers to capture ​mouse movements, clicks and keystrokes for use in training its ‌artificial-intelligence models, part of a broad ...

Meta will begin keystroke logging US employees at work -- complete with mouse movements and periodic screenshots -- to train better AI agents.

This comes after Boz posted about a future in which AI will "primarily do the work" at meta.

It's a new era for tech labor. www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

Considering the weird type of adult content that appears on this site that's far less realistic and detailed than this painting I can't blame them.

That's worked pretty well with Hal Jordan during the 1990's, didn't it?

I think that the four Slams are a bigger villain than the ATP, ITF and WTA. But creating standards for balls, surfaces and even rackets could help, the ideal would be to not have any mandatory tournaments. Even if any fix is very difficult without the four Slams.

I would argue that the point is that we need more interesting men that are good models and can talk about male insecurities and issues more than "experts".

It changed a lot. There wasn't really an Asian Tour in the 1990's, the difference of surfaces meant that players could take time to rest (Sampras did basically that during the European Clay Tour), there weren't mandatory tournaments.

Soccer/football is interesting because you can trace the decline of entire national teams(Germany, Chile, Brazil, Italy) to not having those games on free TV. I think that's one of the reasons why French fans got so mad when they tried to force it into them.

In France the fans got so mad when their national soccer/football league was close to subscribers that they began plastering posters with instructions on how to pirate the games. And most important, everyone refused to pay for it.

I don't know. The proportion and instances of injuries are much bigger than in the past, and players themselves have been complaining and making suggestions.

Mineração é parte relativamente pequena do negócio, terras raras não são tão raras assim. Isso é mais um processo industrial que de mineração(Mas tipo, todo mundo no Brasil é obcecado com commodities, acha que é só questão de ter recursos naturais. Vide a obsessão daquele maluco com niobio).

That's what happened in France with League 1(The fans revolted, pirated the transmissions and refused to pay to watch).

Aliás, gente da minha idade ou mais jovem com esses papos de tiozinho me faz sentir velho, mais do que sinais clássicos tipo quando você nota celebridades com sinais de envelhecimento.
