We shouldn’t invade countries for oil, regardless of who runs the country. Stop defending imperialism.

America is, trump isn’t

I’d vote for Newsom. He’s not my favorite person but he’s a fine politician. I’d prefer a more progressive candidate (and will vote for one in primaries) but I honestly think Newsom would be good for the country.

Because it’s hard enough to get regulation passed, and telemetry is completely unrelated to backup cameras.

Put yourself in the shoes of one of the far-too-many Americans that have accidentally killed a child because they could not see them, regardless of whether they were driving an F-250 or a Fiat 500. This is a safety problem we faced and addressed with regulation. This is a good thing. The second-order effects are not the fault of the regulators trying to make cars safer, that falls squarely on the auto companies who would have done that regardless of regulation.

Mandating backup cameras is not stupid. There’s a legitimate blind spot that has caused numerous child deaths. It’s okay for a car to cost a little more if it means it’s less likely to kill someone.

No comment on backseat alarms.

Make it a teachable moment: “Don’t get caught next time”

I’m not saying it’s good, but it’s not Ma Bell.

There is actual competition though, from Google and Microsoft at a minimum.

At-will employment doesn’t allow you to violate someone’s constitutional rights.

Why do they care about the optics? $$$

No, I don’t think being assessed relative to subpar students is a benefit. You’d get a better letter grade, sure. But likely a worse education due to “lowering the bar”, which is what you paid for. Educators often can’t grade on absolute scales because the pass/fail ratio of the students factors into their own performance assessment.

Lower class participation, impact on grading curves, and distracting behavior all have an effect on others.

Because your enrollment in a class is not without consequence. If you are doing poorly due to being distracted by your phone, you are creating harm for other students and the lecturer/professor. Thinking that you are free to behave however you wish just because you are the customer is an extremely consumer-minded Karen-esque mindset.

“I paid for it” isn’t an excuse to do whatever you want.

Yeah its so annoying when someone uses the wrong one
