Waymo are DRIVERLESS TAXIS the tech industry set loose in San Francisco with basically no regulations, like you do with robots, but forgot to program them to deal with flashing traffic lights, because why would SAN FRANCISCO, a city that is part ocean and part earthquake fault, ever lose power??
PG&E is having a massive outage in San Francisco. Waymo robots aren't handling the traffic light outages well. Cell service is also out is some places.
No surprise as Waymo robots & cell have repeatedly failed during power outages.
CPUC regulates both Waymo and PG&E (Profit Greed & Explosions).

Yo! If you missed the first two printings, tonight I cranked out 100 more copies of the Public Collectors booklet "Who Shares the Restroom Code with ICE Agents?" Still just $6.00 from the Half Letter Press webstore. Give the gift of FUCK ICE to someone you love. halfletterpress.com/who-shares-w...
Who Shares the Restroom Code with ICE Agents? (3rd printing)
This collection of questions is an invitation to think about situations we may encounter with ICE, a poetic rant against ICE, and a provocation for ICE’s allies.

Beyond policy considerations and electoral politics, Tuesday provided a lot of people with a brief spark of hope that maybe our democracy is not already dead, and Democrats immediately capitulating to anti-democracy forces for no discernible benefit is a great way to extinguish that spark.

Probably worth noting that both Vance and Trump have been “joking” about murdering fishermen in these strikes.
The U.S. military has destroyed five boats it has alleged were ferrying drugs into the U.S., killing 27 people. No authority has publicly released the names of any of the dead. One family is believed to be the first to publicly say they believe a relative is among those who were killed.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

It is impossible—even for those of us who spend a pathological amount of time every day working on CBP, ICE, and DHS—to fully track these agencies’ misdeeds.
