Do you need any real justification to report suspected illegal immigrants to ICE? There is a construction site nearby constantly playing Mexican music while they work, workers all speaking Spanish, but they could be legal.
Is it worth reporting? I'm currently in a non-cooperative blue zone for work and they're near my hotel.
If they're illegal I want them to fuck off and I feel like a report nowadays could actually lead somewhere.

Eh, I'm not sure it's so black and white.

I was in a hotel recently and around 7pm the room next to me filled with 3-4 Messicans talking super loud for a few hours, and again the next night. It was clear they had just got out of work and were having some cervezas before bed.

At first I was annoyed and legit thought about calling ICE. But on the other hand, not every Mexican worker is an illegal, and a lot of them work their asses off and pay taxes. I got no beef with them.

Now maybe these tamales were border jumpers, and yeah, they gotta go back. But I'd say if they're working hard, send them back eventually, and let ICE concentrate first on the cartel guys, MS13s, and non-working welfare wasting beaners.

Negrate me if you must, but I think there's some nuanced perspective to be had here.

Chinese self driving is already mogging Tesla for a few reasons. The Chinese cars have lidar and other sensors while Teslas are reliant only on cameras. China has a more aggressive driving culture so Chinese self driving is more prepared to handle edge cases like being suddenly cut off vs American self driving which can barely handle it.

I recently drove a Tesla with full self driving enabled. It required me to keep my eyes on the road and always have one hand on the wheel. I complied and then halfway through the drive I had a sneezing fit. The Tesla self driving fucking stopped working, gave me a notification that I lost self driving privileges for this trip, and started slowing the car down in the middle of the highway where everyone was going 75. If I had gotten 4 more situations where the car felt I wasn't paying attention, I would be locked out of self driving for a week. Imagine losing access to a feature that cost you 8k because the self driving janny didn't like that you looked away from the road. Meanwhile Chinese self driving cars let you have your hands off the wheel, look around the cabin, and they notify you if they can't handle a situation.

I like Tesla cars, the self driving is shit. Chinese EVs mog Tesla both in quality and in self driving.

I wouldn't trust chink shit in terms of a fucking angle grinder. Why would I trust them to make a functional car? It's based on Chinese "driving culture", I can't wait for my self driving BYD to drive over a toddler then reverse over them to ensure they're dead and I don't have to pay their medical bills. I swear some of you fuckers would have lead to the collapse of Rome sooner by being dumbasses and telling them Rome doesn't actually have silk worms.

Have a source for the Chinese self driving being good? Honestly surprised at that, Chinese software is notoriously bad in my experience. Agree on the lidar, I don't understand Elon's obsession with only using cameras, since that's "how humans drive".

THEY GOT A FUCKING GO FUND ME

We are seeking donations to cover the legal fees for my husband and his brother who were wrongfully arrested in Spokane with excessive use of force by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). On March 10, my husband, brother-in-law, and I were on our way to the Spokane Courthouse for our hearing. As we approached the courthouse, several unmarked cars blocked our way and we were surrounded by ICE agents. Knowing our rights, we asked the agents for proof of a warrant and began recording. The ICE agents did not present a warrant and instead demanded that we exit the vehicle. They then smashed the windows of our car and forcibly removed my husband and brother-in-law. The agents used excessive force, including a stun gun, until my husband was severely injured. He had to be transported to the hospital before being taken to the Tacoma Detention Center. We urgently need financial help to cover legal fees and fight against her deportation order. I am pregnant and my sister-in-law just gave birth to a one-month-old baby. Given our current situation, we are unable to work and we need financial support to cover her legal fees.

Just remember that those taconiggers have been getting benefits, loans, and free meals just for doing "good" (lmao, rofl, lol) work you or another American could've been doing to enrich themselves and their family. Every beaner means a young American doesn't have hard, honest work and is going to be a little faggier doing worthless drivel that doesn't actually do anything useful for anyone besides pencil-pushing for some retarded suit in an office.

Uh, much more specifically I've found @George Lucas to be a huge hypocrite; an anime avatar nigger who tries to bully people with anime avatars. Nigger's probably so poor section 8 gave him two houses. George Lucas so poor, he tries to huff the seasoning packets from food stamp instant ramen to get high.

That’s the joke.

This is a spectacular own goal by Schumer.

This will allow Trump to make all of the cuts he needs without even seeking congressional approval. The administration can decide what programs are essential and what are not and furlough unessential workers and bugetary items.

Schumer backed down already. Called it.

The Jewish holiday of Purim commemorates the story of the Jews' deliverance and Haman's defeat. On that day, the Book of Esther is publicly read and much noise and tumult is raised at every mention of Haman's name. Various noisemakers (graggers) are used to express disdain for Haman by "blotting out" his name during the recitation of Megillah. Pastry known as hamentashen (Yiddish for 'Haman's pockets'; known in Hebrew as אזני המן, ozney Haman, 'Haman's ears') is traditionally eaten on this day.

I want to culturally appropriate thos holiday but make it about Epstein. We can read the Epstein Files (once they're out) and shake noisemakers every time Epstein's name is mentioned. We can eat jelly cookies and hotdogs with ketchup and chocolate drop cookies to symbolize raped children. We could serve dinner on segmented plastic cafeteria trays to symbolize the prison time Epstein's clients will get. We could play "Pin the Moustache on Ghislaine Maxwell". We can make ceremonial nooses out of orange crepe paper and tack them 5 feet high on the walls. We can have pinatas full of condoms, hand sanitizer, and shekels. We can burn candles wrapped in fake money. It would be so much fun, who's down?

The fact covid went from "NOTHING IS WRONG SHUT UP!" to "EVERYTHING IS WRONG SHUT DOWN!" in a time period of only a few days is what sold me that the government, science institutions, and media were both a: absolute retards and b: insane megalomaniacs.

The reaction to coof shots alone gutted abortion arguments. Remember how there was only a right to privacy when it came to yeeting fetuses?

Every single manufacturer sells a trim level that has self adjusting cruise control and lane assist. That is good enough you can set your cruise control to 84mph and it will automatically slow down to match the speed of the car in front of you and keep the car in the lane.

U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said that President Donald Trump wants to eliminate taxes for individuals earning less than $150,000 per year.

What Happened: Lutnick, in a CBS News interview on Tuesday, shared Trump’s tax objective. “I know what his (Trump's) goal is... no tax, for anybody who makes less than $150,000 a year. That's his goal. That's what I'm working for,” Lutnick said.

Trump’s tax strategy also aims to abolish taxes on tips and overtime and implement significant reductions to individual and corporate taxes. Lutnick suggested that the deficit arising from these tax cuts could be compensated by curbing overseas tax frauds, which he believes are causing a loss of revenue to the U.S.

Its not the 90s anymore. Its not even the 2010's anymore.

American software is full of DEI hires. Women, people like Elliot Fong, or jeets. American Universities are having to babysit kids who cant even type on a keyboard because its racist to fail Shaniqua, and its sexist to fail a woman. Meanwhile China is a ruthless "they die they die" dev culture where 60 hours a week is a light workload. Meanwhile American "tech companies" are basically daycares that mass hire shitty contractors to crank out everything, while their pet tranny stresses over if this one tool used only by internal clients of less than 100 people is re written in Rust. Its being held together by the remaining white millennials and gen x'ers.

Chinese have shit out some pretty solid stuff coding wise. Even Chink videogames are actually properly made vs what western dev companies are shitting out. Look at something like Marvel Rivals vs Star Wars Outlaws. Marvel Rivals might be a soul less Overwatch clone, but its competent not bug ridden and works.
