Sorry, but if the repressed group itself has requested that a name no longer be used, this is simply not a "woke outcry."
If the brand is really this tone-deaf, it's time to move on, with a little more respect for fellow human beings above badges.

reminder to all my trans friends that a man who campaigned with this much support and love for us just destroyed the most machine politician to ever exist in spite of all odds. turns out vocally caring about us is a winning strategy!!
UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera
In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.
As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

The 1994 Mercury Sable AIV used an aluminium body so light, the shell could be carried by two men. Fitted with the SHO’s Yamaha V6, the car was 400lbs lighter than the SHO. It paved the way for aluminium cars at Jaguar, Aston Martin and Land Rover premier marques.Twenty prototypes were built.

A few months ago, I called up this fellow on a tip that he knew a little bit about Olds Aerotech history. "Oh," he said, "Yes, I own those."

Scariest content all day is a house full of U Bodies
I have said for years that people who drive early 2000s GM minivans have nothing to lose.
This house has three of them and an H3. I'm never walking past it again.

can someone calculate how much water and electricity this extravagant and completely unnecessary project will consume? (without using generative!)
Youtube has announced that all low-res videos (i.e. older ones) are to be automatically AI upscaled to HD.
Creators can opt-out on a per video basis (but the channel may be long abandoned).
When researching props or behind the scenes, old videos are useful, but not if upscaling produces artefacts.
