Reply to comment by Adrian_Alucard in TIL that in a series of experiments in the 1950s, Solomon Asch asked a group of actors and a single test subject what the longest line was in a "vision test". The actors would intentionally answer incorrectly, causing the subject to also answer incorrectly, despite it being very obvious. by Amateur_Validator
Fifteen hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe

If it's a choice between being right or the sheeple liking me I choose right every time. I generally don't like people so it works for me

If Rivian gets past the recall Europe can join the chat. I suspect they'll have the same issue as Ford.

There's nothing to think about, the electric f150 is proving that the current generation of electric pickups suck at towing. I'm sure it will get better but we're not there yet

I have a friend in New Mexico who I've visited twice on road trips. Both times, I only stayed a single night and by morning I had horrible nausea that took a couple days to go away. There's a constant heavy smell of oil, I'm pretty sure that's what was making me sick. There's got to be some long term health issues for everyone who lives there. There's no way it's healthy.
