The name "Mastodon" sucks as much as "X". I've never had a Twitter account nor do I want to open an account in any of the services, but Mastodon does not sound catchy to who they need to attract.

They really need to fix that. I hate that. Not even 2009 levels, it just straight up sounds like a dial-up modem.
I actually like Webex better because the audio doesn't get choppy where I'm from. For Teams to have good audio, I've had to call from my mobile, and I get charged for that.
Being safer than humans is a decent starting point, but safety should be maximized to the best of a machine's capability, even if it means adding a sensor or two. Keeping screws loose on a Boeing airplane still makes the plane safer than driving, so Boeing should not be made to take responsibility.
That's a low bar when you consider how stringent airline safety is in comparison, and that kills way less people than driving does. If sensors can save people's lives, then knowingly not including them for profit is intentionally malicious.
The tourbillon watches are very rare too. Don't miss out!
On the contrary, this is actually the strategy to win the swing voters. Some of them just need to be haters and they win bigly.
"I'll bet you wouldn't say that joke about Muslims or Jews". The joke they actually have in mind:
Air travel is generally safer than driving too, but every accident is studied thoroughly. Self-driving is fine, but anyone trying to implement it should be held to a high standard. Boeing slacked off and they're facing some backlash.
"10 times safer than human drivers", (except during specific visually difficult conditions which we knowingly can prevent but won't because it's 10 times safer than human drivers). In software, if we have replicable conditions that cause the program to fail, we fix those, even though the bug probably won't kill anyone.
I was hoping after the graphical upgrade with Morrowind that they'd bring back interesting mechanics from Daggerfall, but they went the complete opposite direction for the money.
Wow. How did you know?
