commiepatrol··on America has lost 200k of jobs in media, film and the arts. How much is AI?
Have you seen media, arts and film that America produces recently? It's garbage.
commiepatrol··on Disney Raising Prices Days After Confirming Ads Will Now Show Up on Every Tier
It boggles my mind that people pay for streaming when there are ample amounts of pirated sites that you can just stream from, you don't even have to download anything anymore.
commiepatrol··on Ousted Savannah police officer gave ICE agent husband access to Flock system
What do you mean ignoring laws aren't ICE agents going after illegals? Wtf are they doing in this country in the first place?

of course, just like the Tesla that's been self driving for 15 years...just give us 10k first.
commiepatrol··on District 9
Not sure what the point of the post is but this is a great film.
commiepatrol··on Secret of Orange Cats Revealed After 60-Year Search
Perhaps in US that's true but I doubt it if you look at the world as a whole. For example, Indian(from India) hate dogs on average. That's 1.5 billion right there.

Holy shit, this is a great answer.
commiepatrol··on Every new car sold in the European Union must include a driver monitoring camera
We were just in Sicily for vacation and got a new BYD for rent. At first I was excited, coming from US I never tried a Chinese car and wanted to check it out. Excitement was quickly replaced with annoyance, that thing would beep for every damn reason. "keep eyes on road", "you are tired, consider taking a break", etc. Then all the damn safety features that a couple of times almost caused me to slam into another car. After a couple of days, I blocked the camera monitoring me and then would spend the first minute after getting in the car turning off all these "helpers", luckily most of them I could still disable. Camera couldn't be disabled in settings but just covering it up worked well. I thought about getting scotch tape but never got around to it.
commiepatrol··on "Call A Republican" San Francisco public phone lets you call a Texas Republican
Last I looked, it was something like 60% of CA is Republican. However, places like SF it's more like 15-20%.

commiepatrol··on US and Iran agree to provisional ceasefire
Came here to say this
commiepatrol··on Austin’s surge of new housing construction drove down rents
Isn't democracy "for the people by the people". Majority = more people. I guess "bad" majority shouldn't get a say?
commiepatrol··on ICE and Palantir: US agents using health data to hunt illegal immigrants
Well, they are illegal so technically they shouldn't be getting medical aid here go back home and get medical help. Otherwise, totally fair game to use that data to catch em.
commiepatrol··on ICE using Palantir tool that feeds on Medicaid data
Even if nobody is telling them nothing is being done about them being here. They need to be arrested and thrown out. This isn't a free candy factory.
commiepatrol··on Eight European countries face 10% tariff for opposing US control of Greenland
Because most European countries are US vassals. They have US bases on their soil. What kind of a sovereign nation will allow another country's military on their ground??

That means at the end of the day they will bitch and moan but eventually they will do what US tells them to do. Otherwise they'll get the same medicine that Libya, Iraq, etc etc has received for disobedience.

commiepatrol··on Video filmed by ICE agent who shot Minneapolis woman emerges

commiepatrol··on What you can get for the price of a Netflix subscription
I get why the general non-tech crowd pays for Netflix but why people who hang out on here do it is beyond me. Most shows/movies on Netflix are garbage, there are plenty of free services that you can stream anything you want from. Why the hell would I pay for Netflix or any other paid service?
commiepatrol··on Nearly 90% of Windows Games Now Run on Linux
But do they work well, that's the question. I don't really care about the subject much but from reading some posts in the past games play like shit on Linux and Mac because they're not optimized for it with ~90% of the market being Windows.
commiepatrol··on Microsoft memo advises H1B employees to return immediately if currently abroad
Amen, in fact to help the best and brightest even more I would encourage to enforce this for even existing visa holders. Let the world be a better place sooner!
commiepatrol··on Existing homes in America are now more expensive than new ones
Exactly what he said. Older houses usually come with a HUGE backyard and in a very nice neighborhood. New houses are essentially stamps with tiny backyards. Yea it's nice to be in a new house but if it comes with 1+ hour commute and feels like you live in a chicken coop(maybe even a HUGE chicken coop) it's not really that great.

commiepatrol··on FCC to Appoint a Babysitter to Make Sure CBS Isn't Anti-Trump
