Shhhh, we’re busy jerking off to today’s Musk hate article. The ritual must not be interrupted, even if we have to dig out old news.

VR today is what 3D TV was 10 years ago: the fad has peaked and now the sales are starting to decline.

It will still have it’s niche, but any mainstream audience will be getting over it pretty soon.

It’s almost like people don’t enjoy sharing rides with crackheads that don’t really reach their destination…

Yak McYakFace

Just stay at a hotel.

Similar price, no bullshit cleaning instructions (then cleaning fees on top), no immoral monitoring, consistent experience.

AirBnB was at best a cute gimmick for a few years. Now it’s a measurably worse experience.

It’s this amazing superpower I have which I call “not falling for completely obvious bullshit” some people just call it “common sense” but I don’t think that really drives the point home.

Of course there are idiots like you who will eat up every piece of crap they are fed. But you can safely be ignored. Bye.

It’s not pathetic

Yes it is

these issues deserve to be looked at seriously

No they don’t.

Yep. That’s iVerge for you.

The sales of the Model Y are more than making up for any dud Tesla puts out right now.

The second trial, set for early October in a Florida state court, arose out of a 2019 crash north of Miami where owner Stephen Banner’s Model 3 drove under the trailer of an 18-wheeler big rig truck that had pulled into the road, shearing off the Tesla’s roof and killing Banner. Autopilot failed to brake, steer or do anything to avoid the collision, according to the lawsuit filed by Banner’s wife.

Is this the guy who was literally paying no attention to the road at all and was watching a movie whilst the car was in motion?

I legit can’t find information on it now as every result I can find online is word for word identical to that small snippet. Such is modern journalism.

I know people like to get a hard on with the word “autopilot”, but even real pilots with real autopilot still need to “keep an eye on things” when the system is engaged. This is why we have two humans in the cockpit on those big commercial jets.

My money is on sabotage on the plane itself, not a missile or suchlike. Some kind of bomb or device which caused the wing to break off.

Footage shows the plane falling vertically and seemed to be missing a wing.

If you absolutely want to crash a plane and kill everyone on board, deleting one of the wings is a pretty surefire way to do it.

They have already left.

It was a hit and run thing.

Ehhhh I’m not sold.

From your link: “For the case in which digoxin poisoning was alleged and supposedly detected by independent measurements in two Dutch laboratories, the method used in those laboratories did not exclude that the substance had actually been a related substance that is naturally produced in the human body. The Strasbourg laboratory used a new method, a test of high specificity and sensitivity, which did not support the digoxin overdose hypothesis”

Let’s compare that to “Child F” in the Letby case, who died.

When the body produces insulin, it also produces c-peptide. This is just how it works, even with diabetes.

Blood samples taken from Child F returned an extremely high insulin level of 4,657 and a very low C-peptide level of less than 169, indicating synthetic insulin was in his system.

Insulin was not ordered for any baby present on the ward at the time. So it couldn’t have been a mix up or accidental overdose. The running theory is that insulin was added to the feeding bag.

So that baby was very clearly murdered. We are good at testing these things, there shouldn’t be a problem here.

The only question remains is “who did it”? Whereas in the de Berk case the question is of it being a murder at all.

Also in the de Berk case there were administrative cockups pointing to her being present for some deaths when she was actually on holiday, and it stuns me that was somehow overlooked.

There is, as far as I’m aware, no issue with knowing that Letby was present on the days of the babies dying.

And let us not forget that Letby wrote that she did it in her diary. Admittedly it might be that she felt she wasn’t good enough at her job and she had guilt at not being able to provide adequate care. But when you add that to everything else… Pretty difficult to overlook.

The evidence just keeps piling on and on in the Letby case. She was always there. The babies were always expected to survive. It’s very clear in many cases that the babies were flat out murdered. There are lots of smoking guns here. The more you look (and I’ve not looked that much) the worse it looks for Letby.

Okay, I’m changing my odds to a date with Michelle, and her being very agreeable to a threesome with Zooey Deschanel. Damn, I kinda want her to be innocent now…

Very unlikely here.

The death rate shot up at the hospital where she worked, and in every single suspicious case of death or near death of a baby, she was present. All 25 of them. I think the next closest was a nurse who was present for 7 of them.

When she stopped working there the suspicious deaths stopped. Deaths on that baby ward pretty much stopped completely actually. I think they had like one on that unit in the years following, compared to 3-4 month when Letby was there.

I’m not saying it’s impossible she’s innocent, in the same way it’s not impossible for my ugly ass to get a date with Michelle Ryan. But it’s really, really unlikely.

The driver was responding. If he didn’t respond the car would have stopped.

If this was a normal car he probably would have just crashed earlier.

What if you need to type other words?

iVerge has been on the decline for nearly a decade now.

I’m surprised anyone takes them seriously at this point.
