    Trump on car tariffs: “I couldn’t care less if they raise prices”

    Its the same thing that the happened to Washington State, when the activists thought adding a carbon tax to gasoline would result in energy companies "eating the price increase." Wrong, taxes get mostly passed on to consumers. That's why all tax increases are ultimately a drag on the economy.

    DOT must not give Tesla or other automakers a free pass, advocates say

    Must regulate, can't believe anything good can happen without government. Courts are how we ended up with car insurance being required by law. Good to be an insurance company.

    25 arrested so far for sharing AI sex images of minors in largest EU crackdown

    Like others have said. This is typical government propaganda using moral outrage slippery slope style. While we can't prove this has harmed anyone and you can't prove us wrong, we just KNOW! that someone who plays violent video games will become violent. Or in this case it has to be true...

    Harbinger’s electric van drives like a classic, and that’s the point

    That is incorrect, all class 1-8 trucks have pollution controls and are regulated for emissions by the EPA. They all have gasoline/diesel as applicable DOC, DPF filters, SCR (def), EGT, Cats and etc from the date this was required. You maybe confusing that trucks with a GVWR > 8500lbs wich...

    Elon Musk recommends that the International Space Station be deorbited ASAP

    That was Boeing's doing. All the astronauts on board currently have return capability, as there are never more astronauts on board than there are seats on capsuls in order to allow an abandon ship.

    $58 billion Honda-Nissan merger is in deep trouble

    On Nissan, Japan likes to protect workers jobs and the merger may be more about keeping jobs at Nissan instead of letting it fail (as it will). A lot more workers will be let go if Nissan heads into bankruptcy. Musing. When did the American dream become I want to grow up and work for...

    Europe has the worst imaginable idea to counter SpaceX’s launch dominance

    Eric BERGER, I agree, that this endeavor will fail in Europe. As the saying goes, the US innovates, China replicates, and Europe Regulates. Between Europes push for de-industrialization, unsustainable deficits, missing the tech revolution, space and now AI. I'm not sure our European friends...

    Europe has the worst imaginable idea to counter SpaceX’s launch dominance

    Europe doesn't innovate, Europe regulates. I think just like europe missed out and couldn't compete in tech, the same fate is be-faling the continent in space and AI. I like europe and I'd like to see them succeed. But they'd rather spend money on having buracrates develop regulations for...

    The kids are… maybe alright: Teen drug use hits new lows in ongoing decline

    ITs great that drug use is down among young teens! That's the good news. Now for the part that makes everyone uncomfortable... If the drug interventions paid for by the tax payers didn't accomplish what we paid for, a reduction of drug use... Why do we continue to fund programs that...

    Cable ISPs compare data caps to food menus: Don’t make us offer unlimited soup

    I'd be totally fine with cable internet providers charging what ever they would like if the government didn't enforce their monopolies. Our government prevents internet competition and protects cable monopolies... Sounds like the real problem is our government and un-elected bureaucrats...

    Cable companies and Trump’s FCC chair agree: Data caps are good for you

    True, we got data caps under the democrats and now nothing is planned to be changed under the republicans. Was there any difference from the election? Does either balance the budget? Does either fix, well anything. Why do they keep taking our money, and only getting bad service?

    Novo Nordisk sells hit weight-loss drug in China—at fraction of US price

    Trump team puts EV tax credit on the block, Tesla is on board: Report

    a vote for Harris would have been a pro hamas vote. Maybe most Americans don’t see Hamas as the righteous liberators of the Palestinian people. The elected representatives of Palestine has stated their goal is to see the destruction of the Israeli state. Kinda hard to have Peace with A...

    Trump team puts EV tax credit on the block, Tesla is on board: Report

    I cant help but notice the flock cameras that have gone up everywhere, kill switches on cars legisitlation, and initiatIves by the democratic secretary of transportation to track the locations of all vehicles for taxation. Riddle me this if liberals are actually different than conservatives in...

    A year after Broadcom’s VMware buy, customers eye exit strategies

    Brodcomm probably did their homework and saw a pricing opportunity that VMware missed. I'm sure they've run the numbers on what it costs to move to an alternative product and priced their offering just below this cost. So folks will hesitate to move, but revenue will be enhanced. I'm also...

    EU considers calculating X fines by including revenue from Musk’s other firms

    I don't disagree, that rule of law should apply equally to all people. The problem is this is the rulers seeing an opportunity to grab money and aren't applying this law equally. In fact they invented something new to target one person, so they have created a special case that dosen't apply...
