I get to find out if I have ulcerative colitis or Crohns in a few days. This gives me hope that even if I have one of them, I won't have to take meds for the rest of my life, or worse, have parts of me removed.

Oh no, now someone will have to write a bot to scrape the ToS once a day or something, and push it to Github if it has changed.

They're right there, written in big text and placed in a nice 3x3 arrangement below the jumbled mess of random letters.

It's all fun and games until you end up stuck on an ancient spaceship billions of lightyears from home because you accidentally blew up the planet.

Rivian CEO should keep his mouth shut until a few grand gets you a used compact electric hatchback (VW Polo or similar) with a decent battery.

This is tax money funding toys for the parasitic criminal billionaires.

What an idiotic and short-sighted take. Research on supersonic aerodynamics is useful for far more than just toys for billionaires. Military applications, rocketry and astrophysics, for example. And even regular commercial aviation, because supersonic shockwaves are a major source of drag even at the speeds airliners fly at. Airlines would kill to have a fleet of planes that burn a few percent less fuel.

E: Also, much of the noise an airliner makes during takeoff comes from the sonic booms created by the engine fan blades going supersonic.
