Well, if he loves movies, he should do one about the disappearance of Shelly Miscavige - that would be fascinating!

Because he doesn't actually believe any of this, it's all performative. It's all about creating a certain narrative that they can then exploit to keep the grift going.

I mean, a number of people have retrofitted classic Beetles as EVs, and the modern Beetles were bigger. If BMW can make an electric MINI Cooper, pretty sure VW can figure out an electric Beetle.

VW just needs to make an electric Beetle - how hard can that be?

"According to the French bioethics law, DNA testing is only allowed for medical, scientific or judicial purposes. The main concern is that paternity tests and medical DNA tests shouldn’t be done without supervision. But the ban also extends to genealogical DNA tests."

From my own experience, my wife has several lines that I know originated in France (either directly or through early Quebec settlers) from verified records and nothing shows up in her Ancestry results. Also, the ethnicity reports in general might as well be labeled for "entertainment purposes only" - they are not consistent from revision to revision, and are often flat out wrong when matched against hundreds of years of documentation. Theoretically they might get better over time, but I manage four DNA results including my own and the ethnicity results are never accurate.

Black Mirror is too high brow for these folks, I think this is turning more into Swarzenegger's Running Man.

Great photo on the article. Is Trump aging super fast now? He looks significantly older than he did even back in January.

Um, Valve doesn't use 2FA SMS?
