Iranians Who Seized U.S. Embassy Release 4 Women and 6 Black Men (Published 1979)

In 1979 when Iranian students seized the US embassy they eventually let go all of the Black people working there because they understood that the US would only care about white Americans. Iran understands our society far better than we understand theirs or our own.

The cult that wants to give human rights to robots Anthropic’s β€˜Claude Constitution’ reflects the misanthropic, ultra-utilitarian Effective Altruism agenda.

"Anthropic is guilty not only of wildly exaggerating the capabilities of AI, and promoting dystopian fantasies of β€˜AI doom’, but also quietly advocating the deeply misanthropic philosophy on which it was founded.

how did they manage to make an entire brand specifically for China and then fuck up the one thing the Chinese market demands

tbf it's probably SAIC's fault bc I heard the IM L6 the E5 is based on has really bulky rear suspension packaging bc of the rear wheel steering; the L6 has mediocre sales too

the gearbox positioning and especially the casing affects suspension geometry so it makes sense for Silverstone to do it; what doesn't make sense is why Aston didn't do their own gearbox last year as practice? But tbf they may have assumed they could just be competent first try like Audi.

β€œCuba has also arrested a local facilitator sent from the US to receive this armed group. This is a clear, undeniable case of cross-border terrorism planned, financed, and launched from US soil against a sovereign nation.”

Insane. Glad they foiled whatever this was.
