*Elon Musk jabs back at John Oliver for 'Last Week Tonight' story*

Elon Musk was the subject of 'Last Week Tonight' on Sunday, the massively popular show on Max hosted by John Oliver. The multi-time Emmy-awarding show has been around for a decade and has never been afraid to put out scathing deep dives on some of the world's most prominent people, companies, and industries. Some of the shows topics include Donald Trump, International Federation of Association Football (FIFA), and the tobacco industry. In tackling Musk, Oliver and "Last Week Tonight" actually didn't shy away from complementing Musk and the success of his companies. But the main point Oliver was trying to drive was that Musk holds an immense amount of power in the world — including on powerful governments like the U.S. — and it may be dangerous, especially given Musk's track record.Related: Elon Musk gets grilled by Last Week Tonight's John Oliver in must-see segment "Whether we like it or not — and the answer is absolutely not — a huge number of very important things going forward are going to depend on how Elon is feeling, which is a terrifying thing to say about anyone, but especially this guy," Oliver said. The episode on Musk has already surpassed 3.8 million views on YouTube — though this is actually still less than some of Oliver's most popular episodes from its latest season that include the Israel-Hamas War, which has nearly eight million views. Given the show's popularity, it's no surprise that Musk would give his response on X (formerly Twitter).Related: McKinsey called the 'Salt Bae' of consulting firms in scathing 'Last Week Tonight' takedown Musk responded to a tweet on Monday, Dec. 18, attacking the "wokeness" of Oliver. "Oliver was great several years ago, but stopped being funny when he sold his soul to wokeness where humor is basically illegal," Musk tweeted.

*Mercedes-Benz has a clever safety solution for autonomous driving*

Drivers will be seeing some unfamiliar color lights out on the roads very soon. Related: New report finds Tesla drivers are the most accident-prone As Mercedes (DDAIF) - Get Free Report prepares to roll out its first vehicles equipped with its innovative level three self driving system, motorists and traffic enforcement in Nevada and California might be shocked to find that the person "driving" the big S-Class or EQS sedan next to them isn't entirely paying attention to the road. To solve this conundrum, the German luxury brand has come up with a clever solution. Mercedes-Benz has received approval in both Nevada and California to use turquoise-colored indicators to signal to other drivers on the road that that its level three Drive Pilot system is in use. A Mercedes-Benz EQS equipped with Drive Pilot and turquoise lights. Mercedes-Benz The automaker believes that the use of this distinct lighting will help motorists and law enforcement interact with self-driving cars more accordingly. In their scenario, if the teal lights are on in an equipped S-Class or EQS, the drivers around it would know that the car is driving itself. "The inclusion of marker lights is poised to substantially enhance public acceptance of automated driving and contribute to road safety, as the lights clearly visualize the automated driving system's status on the exterior," Mercedes-Benz said in a statement. "This also allows traffic law enforcement and police officers to identify the system's status and determine whether drivers are permitted to engage in secondary activities during the conditionally automated journey." The Society of Automobile Engineers (SAE), the same standards developing organization behind the levels of self-driving, has come up with the idea of using turquoise for level three self-driving (it does not interfere with any other lights on the road, such as traffic lights). Additionally, it will allow other brands besides Mercedes to use this color if they develop similar technology.

*Are Americans THAT religious?*

I live in Australia and recently I’ve seen a whole lot of tv/film/media where religion is the central aspect or motivation for the main character. From my viewpoint (correct me if I’m wrong,) religion just doesn’t filter through to media as blatantly as it does in the U.S. Religious groups are a significant influence on politics in Australia through donations and the like, but, within communities, I don’t feel it has a real significance at all. (Or at least nobody is outspoken) Are we receiving stereotypical visions of the States? Or is it real? Honestly curious. submitted by /u/sneakyfoote to r/NoStupidQuestions [link] [comments]

*AITAH for solving my ex-girlfriend's problem without her consent? We broke up over this*

Basically, my gf (now ex) lives in an apartment building where she shares her floor with just one other tenant, but the dude lets his big dog sleep in the hallway between their front doors. The dog does what dogs do: It thinks the hallway is its territory, so it defends it. It never bit anyone but it'd usually growl and look aggressive whenever my ex or myself walked past it to go to her apartment. My ex just would not shut up about how much she hated that dog being there (she is squeamish around dogs at the best of times) but the dog's owner is a massive-looking tatted-up dude, and she'd keep whining that she didn't dare speak up to him because he scared her. I talked to the dude a couple times here and there and, while he looks dangerous, he seemed to me like a chill guy, so I kept telling her to just talk to him and I was sure he'd understand. But my ex was adamant: ABSOLUTELY NOT, because she was afraid he'd get angry at her and retaliate somehow. Well, three days ago, I was sick of hearing her complaining about the dog again and again, I just got up, walked to the neighbor's door, rang the bell, he answered, I asked if he could avoid leaving the dog in the common area because it makes my gf uncomfortable, and his reaction was "Oh gosh, I didn't realize! My apologies, it will never happen again." Boom, solved. But when I got back in my gf's apartment, she was ENRAGED at me. Said she wanted an apology from me for helping her "without her consent" and that she thought I was "putting her at risk" because she lived next to the guy, and what if he was a secret serial killer and by telling him to keep his dog indoors I made HER his next victim????? I tried to be patient but she was screaming at the top of her lungs and completely freaking out and not listening to me telling her that her neighbor is a normal dude who would have removed his dog earlier if she had politely asked him to. Nooo, she just needed to screech at me about paranoid fears of somehow "making an enemy" out of the neighbor and how I am the one who started the war but she's the one who will be a victim of it. I repeatedly told her that there is no war, no conflict, no nothing and that she should just CALM DOWN, but she screamed at me that she never wants to talk to me again until I sincerely apologize. I believe I have nothing to apologize for, so I guess we'll never talk again. I've heard earlier today from my ex's sister that my ex is waiting for me to call AND APOLOGIZE and that I'm apparently a pig for not doing it yet. I told her that I have nothing to apologize for, and the sister blew up on me saying that I absolutely need to apologize "after all I did to my ex". Never got the chance to even ask her what those horrible things I did supposedly are, she hung up on me. I used to be good friends with my ex's family and I hate to lose not only her but them too. So, am I wrong for believing I did nothing that requires apologizing for and being stubborn about that? AITAH? submitted by /u/ImpressiveRow3924 to r/AITAH [link] [comments]
