I’ve been all around the country, and ofc there are exceptions but radio in general is ridiculously conservative. If I have to hear another Christmas song I might just lose it…
Have you tried not being a grumpy godless commie? Imagine saying that Christmas is conservative.
You don’t have to be a godless commie to dislike having a religious event be commercialised and shoved down your throat months before the event.
Christmas is the fricking most magical glorious perfect impeccable dazzling time of year, motherlover! How DARE you pitiful grinches not love every single jolly holly jingly bit of it, motherlover! What is fricking wrong with you freaks?! Have you no festive spirit, noPopulated forests of pine trees covered in twinkling rainbow lights that blanket me in cozy, tinsel-y warmth, b-word? No army of nutcracker soldiers marching up the fricking stairs bearing plates of fudgy butter cookies and mugs overflowing with marshmallowy hot cocoa, b-word? No glistening angels fluttering through the fricking alleyways at midnight, telling stories of poor skeletal children whose bones are fricking decomposing in the fricking cemetery because they don’t have proper Christmas dinners to nourish them, b-word? YOU SHOULD, motherlover! Let their blood and marrow splatter all over youuntil you finally understand the fricking true meaning of Christmas, you naughty scrooges, motherlover! Now if you’ll excuse me, I have gingerbread houses to build while I listen to Madonna’s Christmas album on repeat for all eternity.
Honestly that’s not really that bad
Your screen looks really dirty.
It’s not dirt it’s the shit screens Tesla uses. They use a glue that yellows over time. Fucking war crime if you ask me.
EDIT: actually on second glance it’s dirty as shit too. The yellow on the left is the glue I mentioned.
yucky af
There was probably a dog within a 2 mile radius.
Usually about 2 feet radius. I am rarely in the car without him.
Okay, so I need to ask… Who’s a good boy?
Neat, a potential FCC violation. I don’t know if this violates the advertisement disclosure requirement for political ads, but I bet someone at the FCC does.
I’m just going to leave this handy dandy FCC complaint form here. Don’t mind me.
Feeling cute, thought I’d submit a possible violation to the FCC, might submit more later, idk
Bidenomics has been a disaster. Things are not as rosy as they claim.
Just wait until you learn who cranked the interest rates down to nothing and handed a bunch of free money to the rich at a time when supply chains were almost completely shut down during the pandemic…
I feel like that doesn’t get discussed enough. The supplements provided under trump hindered way more than they helped. Might I remind you that those were promised and then delayed because Trump wanted his fucking name printed on the checks. Outside of that, the paycheck protection program was a disaster! So many companies took advantage of that while shitting all over the employees that that was supposed to help. All the while, mom and pop shops and other local places got shafted because the mega corporations tapped the fund. Then it all got forgiven?? You’ve got what is essentially neutered unemployment benefits performed solely to act as a clout grab, and you’ve got hyper inflation into the absolute wrong end of the scale of where it should go. More people focus on the former instead of the latter like the latter never happened.
Everyone knows it was all bullshit but try to remember nearly every day of all four years of Trump’s presidency, and months prior campaigning, were filled to the brim with bullshit. Many people, myself included, just gave up on politics for a while after he lost to Biden just to try and stay mildly sane.
Obviously that was Obama.
Thanks Obama
Wait until you hear that Biden kept the guy that cranked down those interest rates, the same one that now has interest rates for homes in the upper 8%. Then kept those tax cuts for the rich, while pretending the inflation was due to supply chain issues and not capitalist greed.
What is Bidenomics?
Marketing from the Biden team that Democrats use to support their cause and Republicans ironically use to support their cause.
It’s the Republican buzzword for “Cleaning up the mess Trump left”
Also: Creating a Soft Landing Instead of a Recession
This isnt a soft landing, we are in the middle of a silent depression. And we have not hit bottom yet
My cat has a better grasp on economics than you do. Oh and my cats are rescued from Russia.
Healthy economies do not have skyrocketing credit card debt, skyrocketing car repos, less savings, increasing evictions, and people losing their homes because of unaffordable housing. If the exact same conditions were happening under a GOP, WH liberals would be in an uproar, but since BlueMAGA is running the show they went to brunch while the world burns.
Which of those things weren’t happening under Trump?
Yeah, it’s a really big mess that needs to be fixed. Thanks Reagan.
That’s all been happening for decades, dude. Literally wtf are you talking about?
What policies have Republicans presented to address those issues besides cutting taxes for the rich and cutting social programs that support working families?
That’s the official term presented by the WH. The rest is correct.
Economy in freefall, constantly rising inflation, interest rates through the roof and home prices not falling at all
Free fall, meaning? Inflation is going down. Interest rates are a mechanism to control inflation, and historically are not all that high. Housing is a problem, but nobody is going to do much about it because something something free market. Not everything is great, but not dismal either. I don’t really see how this is Biden’s fault, but I am sure people will still blame.
I bet you listen to the other, opposite “they” with a sense of full validity
Yep, you’re definitely “trash”.
That’s very classist of you to say
STFU
And that justifies political ads in the metadata of a pop station because …
Because it was paid for. Plain and simple.
If i want politics I’ll go to a news channel. If I want music I expect the channel to not be politically involved.
So anything is allowed if the ad is paid for? The KKK can pay for an ad that says “Kill the N—s” and that’s ok?
No, things aren’t rosy. What happened under trump was a corporate apologist shitshow though.
Luckily for Americans, Biden is the scourge of corporate America…
What do you want me to say? The choice was between total shit and kinda shit. That’s what’s wrong with the two party entrenchment
No, it’s not parties that are entrenched, it’s laziness and complacency. America could have a viable third party, the status quo could be shaken. But it would require a bit more drastic measures than just canvassing and making YouTube videos. It would require an election boycott campaign to shake the legitimacy of your democracy (and with two parties that serve the same corporate master, just how legitimate is it in the first place?), it would entail a period of instability with perhaps something even worse than Trump emerging for a while…
But by and large, Americans are comfortable. Despite the economic downturns, despite the drug zombies in the streets, most Americans are not ready for the hardcore sacrifices that are necessary to drastically change a political system.
So you trudge along, always choosing between two piles of shit, carefully weighing which pile is a bit smaller and stinks just a bit less. And you say, this is democracy in action!
What happened under trump was a corporate apologist shitshow though.
So, exactly what we have right now?
Lol. Imagine watching Trump during covid and then thinking “exactly what we have right now”. What a trash take.
Oh. I guess your username is accurate! Well!
Then you need to pay closer attention
Given how easy it’s been to prove you wrong with actual events. Pretty clear you’re in an echo chamber of your own.
Much less of one than what happened under Trump. When disaster struck, Trump’s first thought was to bail out big companies over actually helping the people. Infact frequently he put the people dead last. At least Biden has done and tried to do a few things for the common person.
When one of you are willing to offer up an alternative solution that even remotely resembles an inclination that you’re paying attention to the problem at hand- we’ll start taking you seriously.
Until then, you’ll remain the joke that you are to everyone with a functioning brain.

This type of comment that says their side is right… are just hilarious to me. Corporations bought your government through bill riders packed in 1,000 page bills.
Neither side wants to fix this mess, because their millions in campaign funding relies on keeping corporations and fat cats happy.
If you are in the bottom 95%, you aren’t being served by your government anymore.
This Conservative vs Liberal fighting is exactly what they want. Serves as a nice distraction.
bOtH siDeZ tHo, riTe?
This type of comment that says both sides are equally bad are just hilarious to me. People riding the fence is what got us here.
Shit of get off the pot. We’re not in a pace where we can afford to NOT choose sides anymore.
Liberals thinking they were voting for ‘lesser evil’ got us here. This is 100% on the shoulders of shitlibs that cant tell the difference between red fascism and blue fascism.
And what solution are you offering here? Not vote? Vote 3rd party? Vote for Trump?
I’ve already voted for progressives in my local elections.
Their only “solution” is whining and ignorance.
Voters have zero impact on policy or legislation. Keeping the status quo is killing us
You still didn’t answer my question. What solution do you have? “Biden sux” is true, but just yelling it over and over is not gonna further any leftist ideology…
God damn your takes are stupid. “zero impact”. To prove a universal quantification false only a single counterexample is required. That’s it. Nothing more is required and then poof you are an idiot. You sure you want to make that bet? You absolutely sure that voters have zero impact on policy or legislation? Cause, like, votes determine the passage of policy where I live.
Counterexample:: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis_in_Colorado
Oh look. Votes determined the legality of cannabis. Was illegal before then votes then not. That’s a policy change BTW in case you are even more confused than the average stoner.
Done! I’ve proved you wrong! Congrats! No further effort by anybody is required to prove you are stupid. Just one example was required. Nothing more.
My god you’re fucking hilarious!
Soviet flag PFP… That’s all you need to know
Theres no arguing with these people - that would be expecting the most basic level of critical thinking
Supporting genocide Joe and Im the one lacking critical thinking?
Isn’t that the new dog-whistle term being used to disenfranchise younger voters and muddy the waters for democratic or liberal leaning politicians?
No offense, but that really isn’t a great way to show you’re a critical thinker.
The young know exactly who and what the duopoly is, so there is no muddying the water. They rightfully see that there is nearly zero difference between the two in policy or their commitments to Wall Street.

"15% corporate minimum tax
A critical provision applies to most U.S. corporations that earn more than $1 billion in profits. While under current law, these firms are subject to a 21% corporate tax rate, many pay less or no federal tax. Under this change, a new minimum 15% tax would apply based on annual income posted in a corporation’s financial statement, rather than the corporation’s taxable income, effective on January 1, 2023. "
Definitely the same as Trump’s tax cuts. Lol. Fucking ignorant trash.
Talk is cheap, and that’s all it will be. When asked, he said rolling back Trump’s tax cuts for the rich were off the table.
You mean like tax cuts for the rich to fix every problem? Because that’s all they have.
That accelerated with Regan and has been the status quo for every president since. Biden proposed a wealth tax and it got stone walled by a Republican congress. You could argue it’s all for show but laying it at his feet is a little “mask off” with your intent.
Still likely a troll account just don’t want you convincing the less critically inclined of insanity.
Edit: replied to the wrong person, this was meant to be a reply to the parent comment saying that “bidenomics” was the problem oops.
You mean every Republican president. Democrats have not chased trickle down economics.
Sorry I should have been specific. I wasn’t speaking about trickle down economics, I was speaking about the economic policies in general that tax the poor while leaving the rich mostly unaffected and while purposely building in loopholes.
This may not have been strengthened as much during times when Dems were in power but in the past it certainly hasn’t been weakened, My argument is that Joe Biden has actually made moves to try.
As I said….

What’s wrong with radio companies exercising their first amendment rights?
What’s wrong with us dunking on dumb takes like this one?
Nothing, I’m not the one seething about a stupid radio ad.
Ah, yes, here we all are, seething.
HONEY FETCH MY SEETHING COAT, ITS A BAD ONE.
Their little feelings are hurt.
Conservatives: “STOP MAKING EVERYTHING POLITICAL”
Also conservatives:
I went hiking recently. State park, at least a mile from the campground, peaceful and quiet.
Then I noticed something scrawled on one of the trail markers. Some dipshit wrote “Fuck Joe Biden” on it.
Holy shit, how miserable do you have to be to do that? To carry a marker and tag a tree just to express how you can’t stop thinking about the guy, and make it other people’s problem, even in the middle of nowhere when you’re not even around.
I wonder what that mushbrain even thinks “Bidenomics” is, like the government’s been doing anything that isn’t basic capitalist theory.
You can find out pretty easily by looking at the website. It’s a letter-writing campaign.
Nice, tried the link and they couldn’t even set up https. Their target base won’t even be able to type that link out lol.
Wow, that’s funny.
Yeah, it made me laugh out loud.
One random thing that really annoys me is that the site http://shakespeare.mit.edu does not properly forward http requests to https although they have an https version of the site.
Don’t you just need to toss an “.htaccess” file in the root?
No, an .htaccess file is specific to Apache HTTP Server… although some other web servers have integrated the format. However, most browsers now automatically redirect when an HTTPS version exists.
Funniest thing I’ve ever seen is the docs for Nginx do the same, no http to https redirection. I mean, you would hope that the maintainers for the biggest web server in the world would be able to manage that but somehow… No they don’t.
Apache tomcat had a stupid security issue. I recently did a HackTheBox about it. Here’s a write-up of the box https://medium.com/ctf-writeups/hack-the-box-jerry-write-up-6f045601315f
server serves a protocol on a port. I would rather it not include logic like that. turn off the http port of you don’t want to serve http.
If you are using Firefox, enable https everywhere setting and it fixes stuff like that
It will only give an error if there’s no https version that exists

Why does reading Shakespeare need to be over SSL?
SSL (or TLS nowadays) not only protects against surveillance but also guarantees the integrity of the data you send and receive. Without it, someone could spoof the response you receive. In practice this means injecting ads or malware or even worse: fake shakespeare!
According to some, all Shakespeare is fake Shakespeare.
At least because search engines rank TLS enabled sites higher these days. And also, wrapping everything in TLS creates more noise against surveillance and makes surveillance more expensive.
It wasn’t from some stupid commercial?
Yeah. That’s what I’m thinking. I’ve seen websites on my car display that match up with the commercial that’s playing. If that website paid for ad time, then there’s nothing shady going on here. Well, no more shady than any other advertising.
They have different metadata during regular commercials. And doing metadata during songs. This only shows up when the “DJ” is speaking.
You mean the pre recorded “live” entertainment person?

That yellowing of Tesla screens is some bullshit
Teslas are built like shit. What do you expect
A Tesla bro to come in and tell you how you’re wrong.
Its just slowly becoming more mexican
Some Latino guy somewhere is offended by your opinion
Well, they can speak for themselves.
IDK why all you social justice warriors feel the need to defend everyone else. Smh.

When we first talked about the touch-screen, the guys came back and said, ‘There’s nothing like that in the automotive supply chain,’” Musk said. “I said, ‘I know. That’s because it’s never been put in a fucking car before.’” Musk figured that computer manufacturers had tons of experience making seventeen-inch laptop screens and expected them to knock out a screen for the Model S with relative ease. “The laptops are pretty robust,” Musk said. “You can drop them and leave them out in the sun, and they still have to work.” After contacting the laptop suppliers, Tesla’s engineers came back and said that the temperature and vibration loads for the computers did not appear to be up to automotive standards. Tesla’s supplier in Asia also kept pointing the carmaker to its automotive division instead of its computing division. As Musk dug into the situation more, he discovered that the laptop screens simply had not been tested before under tougher automotive conditions, which included large temperature fluctuations. When Tesla performed the tests, the electronics ended up working just fine.

He still applies this attitude today in all matters.
They also continued to put these screens in cars even though they knew about the issue. Definitely would never buy a Tesla again.
