It's kind of a nonsensical explanation. As you quoted, the source says it's "not a reconstruction or reparations program" but they go on to say it will be called the Reconstruction and Development Fund and that the program will "include securing loans, establishing credit lines or directly financing the reconstruction of sites damaged in the war ... and, more broadly, infrastructure affected by the conflict."

Wasn't that a UAW summit about EVs? Tesla does not work with UAW, so they wouldn't appear at a UAW event.

The author ran for city council where I live. From what I remember of him, it would be very out of character for him to use AI to write a health article.

That's called a series hybrid: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_vehicle_drivetrain#Seri...

"TIDE TURNS AGAINST HUMAN TERROR-BOTS"

Where did they say "stop driving the vehicle"? I don't think that happened. The instructions were to drive the vehicle to a service center for a drop-in check (or wait for mobile service) which obviously wouldn't be possible if you couldn't drive it.

I don't think that's true. I owned my Rivian at that time. There was a recall but I never received any instructions similar to that. They had everyone drive to the nearest service center to have the bolt torque checked, or you could book a mobile service appointment.

You can see the Oct 6 2022 recall information here, including what they instructed people to do: https://rivian.com/support/article/recall-information

I have a 2022 Rivian and I don't remember any recalls for brake rotors or wheels falling off. There was one about a year after they made the first R1T where they had forgotten to record the torque of a bolt for the upper control arm during assembly, but the recall just involved having the torque checked, they didn't have to replace anything. Is that the recall you're thinking of?

Took me two clicks of the "Stumble" functionality to hit unsavory stuff that someone clearly made on purpose.

Maybe they edited their comment after you saw it, but they included a link to a video from the NYT YouTube channel.

Sauron is the reason the palantiri are dangerous, yes, because his influence causes them to mislead and delude the viewer. That happens even when Sauron is not directly influencing the visions. Essentially, when the forces of evil are present, the seeing stones may show the truth but in such a profoundly misleading way that even those with the best intentions will misinterpret their visions and fall prey to misunderstanding. This even happens to Sauron himself.

It's worth noting that by the War of the Ring (the Lord of the Rings story) Sauron had possessed a palantir for around 1000 years. Anyone who knew what a palantir was should have known that they were not to be trusted.

As for how that relates to Palantir the real-life corporation, I'll leave that up to your interpretation.

Their Composer 2 model is Kimi (an open model) with additional RL fine-tuning, for whatever that information is worth to you: https://techcrunch.com/2026/03/22/cursor-admits-its-new-codi...

Yeah, this comic summarizes the issue pretty well: https://marketoonist.com/2023/03/ai-written-ai-read.html

Their point is that the NYT says it crashed, the cause isn't clear.

These particular ships technically were not attempting to pass through the strait, they were anchored in Iraqi territorial waters. The backlog will extend even further now that it can be considered risky to be anywhere near the strait.

The Iranian military has stated their intention to attack any ship passing through the strait without their permission.

It's nonsense, that's why it's hard to understand.

In this video you can see the agent in the gray coat and baseball cap remove the gun from Pretti's waistband: https://files.catbox.moe/sp296e.mp4

Here is a stabilized version: https://www.reddit.com/r/Minneapolis/comments/1qlyj9h/i_did_...

After that agent takes the gun, the agent standing immediately to the left draws and fires into Pretti's back.

I'm not sure that revision is correct either. What poll shows half the population with a favorable view of ICE? I can't find anything that high. The highest I see from reputable pollsters is 40%, and most show it is decreasing.
