I'm literally one of those people who you say is vanishingly small.

It's not even a "the world is bad and I don't want to subject my child to that" kind of decision. It's more like a series of thoughts over the years: "is this the right time to have a kid?" and it's never a good time.

Toyota really screwed up in deciding that Hydrogen was the energy of the future. Even when everyone else in the world went with electricity they persisted in their failed vision. It's a shame that an otherwise great manufacturer should fall victim to such massive hubris but honestly I think their days are numbered as a major vehicle manufacturer.

There's no chance that hydrogen's going to be a long term success for them and with all their eggs in the one basket it looks like they're dead men walking.

Police weren't happy about gay pride back in the 1970s and it seems they haven't really evolved since then.

I'd call that not so much a victory as a sad indictment of planning that it ever happened in the first place.

Half an hour average to just get out of your estate? What a miserable way to live.

Grimes would have recorded at a studio in the US along with the other English language voice actors.

Maybe not the impeachment but if any of the accusations are based on reports to police (or the FBI) then "making a false report" to police is a crime and that could be prosecuted.

Nice victim blaming. Most motorcyclist deaths are due to them being hit by cars, but it's their fault you're saying?

You only have to watch him interacting with his staff in a few videos and you can see that the bullying comes right from the top. That's not something that's going to change easily.

I've noticed Linus be visibly mean to his employees on camera multiple times and I don't even watch that much. I figure if that's what he's willing to do on camera it's probably a lot worse off camera.

I mean one studio makes a great game and a bunch of other studios make shitty games... then gamers like the game which is better and want more games to be like that. Traditionally that's called market forces, not a weapon.

I'm beginning to think that people may lie on the internet.
