    I thought this was a great article/opinion piece explaining how liberals and conservatives view each other and why neither side seems to want to pay much attention to the other. Being an independent myself, I'm always trying to understand both sides and this helps.

    If you have problems seeing New York Times articles, open it in a Private Window, or Incognito Window, or whatever your browser calls a window with no history and no memory of what you've seen.

    Read a curious article about future of self-driving cars; they say that many people will choose living in self-driving motorhomes one day rather than buy/own overpriced property https://tranio.com/world/spotlight/s...y-market_5354/.

    I hadn't heard of that movie. The description of it seems like it's in the same vein as the article. I'll have to watch it.
