Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating.

This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens.

(Even better: Tesla will hate this)
Cars will need fewer screens and more buttons to earn five-star safety rating in Europe
Euro NCAP will release new testing guidelines in 2026.

looking back, AOL had it right. 30 hours of internet per month was the right amount.

A protester unfurled a combined Palestinian and Sudanese flag on the field during Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl halftime performance. The NFL said in a statement that the person was part of the 400-member field cast. nyti.ms/3CVV6Au

There's gonna be people in bad faith going 'bUt hE diDn'T SaY FuCK TruMP' and its like

He literally said 'The Revolution gonna be televised.' This was an incredibly political piece of performance art, and the brilliant part about it is that the Nazis won't clock 80% of it. That's powerful.

THE SUPER BOWL HALFTIME SHOW IS UNION MADE!

Shout out to Kendrick Lamar, and all the performers and behind the scenes workers that made this go off without a hitch!

Kendrick certainly just made all the worst people in this country mad, so that’s some nice icing on the cake

Fire the tongue and the tongue commercial and set it on fire. Who focus grouped this? Were they all on meth? Get them some help. I don’t even know what that commercial was for. I need extra therapy this week. Haunting body horror hell.

last week, a coworker said they weren't sure about Kendrick at halftime because it would probably be "too urban" (big ick, I know)

Big fan of Uncle Sam calling them out with that "too ghetto" line 🤣🤣

BASH: I remember a time when Republicans were very careful about the government having access to personal data

NOEM: Well, we can't trust the government anymore

BASH: You are the government

NFL doing a "end hate" commercial while also taking the "end racism" decal off the field is very #funny

of all the many terrible things that seem to be afflicting the public, the prevalence of defeatist mindsets with zero capacity for creative problem solving (or indeed the unwillingness to even *imagine* possible solutions to problems) might be the thing which freaks me out most.
Electricity generation has always felt like an impossible engineering problem. Demand has to match supply - yet we managed that with ancient, all-analog equipment for over a century.

Now we have so many more tools at our disposal. Why should this be hard?

It looks like Elon Musk wants your Social Security number and may be coming for your benefits next! Stop the Elon Grift!
DOGE follows longtime Musk pattern — and turns attention to Social Security Administration
There are differing views among those close to the Elon Musk-led group about exactly how far to go with cuts.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

Absolutely. Grind it to a halt.

Let me emphasize: Elon Musk has not been confirmed by Congress. His “department” was never actually enacted. No one other than Trump has given him any authority.

Democrats and any Republicans with a spine need to step in and stop this madness.
