"Dave Limp, the chief executive of one of my companies, Blue Origin, met with former president Donald Trump on the day of our announcement," Bezos wrote. "I sighed when I found out, because I knew it would provide ammunition to those who would like to frame this as anything other than a principled decision. But the fact is, I didn’t know about the meeting beforehand. Even Limp didn’t know about it in advance; the meeting was scheduled quickly that morning. There is no connection between it and our decision on presidential endorsements, and any suggestion otherwise is false."

"Presidential endorsements do nothing to tip the scales of an election. No undecided voters in Pennsylvania are going to say, 'I’m going with Newspaper A’s endorsement.' None. What presidential endorsements actually do is create a perception of bias. A perception of non-independence. Ending them is a principled decision, and it’s the right one," Bezos wrote

"Who are you gonna believe, me or your lying eyes?"

AOC for president.

These the guys that notoriously violated emissions standards and created software to hide the fact from testers? Some pretty spectacular claims you got there. Would be a shame if someone... doubted your reputation.

Welcome to the point, everyone. Just think of all the low-income suppressed-education workers this will generate.

The only engagement you actually get is on super-niche subreddits. Other than that, the "engagement" you get on reddit is largely indistinguishable from bot traffic.

It would be an insanely stupid thing to make precedent. Therefore, the SC can be expected to rule in Trump's favor.

Hey, totally unrelated question: Didn't linus recently take a lot of flak for shady/unfair reviewing practices?

Am I reading this right- they don't have a finished product or a business model? This reads like a press release from the "pump" stage of a "pump'n'dump."

How do I block specific websites?

Quora is somehow always in the first page near the top of results on questions, generally directly adjacent to the hallucinated "people also asked" list.

The company has filed a lawsuit in federal court challenging the decision, stating that the decision could result in millions of dollars in refunds for tenants.

Seems to be a distinct possibility. Posturing prior to the election, rattling sabers, they're spoiling for a full-on shootin' war contingent on losing the election, in my opinion.

edit: I dare say, it might even be strategically advantageous for them to intentionally try lose, claim it was rigged, and use that to go live with the 4th riech.

No, the headline correctly expresses the sentiments of foreign leaders about american stability, regardless of the outcome of our elections.

Nah, if you were ashamed of the shit you wouldn't have done the shit. What you are is embarrassed to have been caught.

Pro choice like a gunman asking "left or right kneecap"

Pro choice like a rapist asking "ass or cunt"

Pro choice like an addict wondering "should I take another hit"

Pro choice like choosing between an impossible child and an illegal abortion

I'm struggling to think of something flippant and cutting enough to capture the irony while also doing justice to and being respectful of the dead and wounded.
