Autonomous rides are arriving on Uber with Waymo
https://www.uber.com/newsroom/waymo-on-uber/
Ready to roll? Your next Uber ride may be in a fully autonomous Waymo vehicle.
Starting today in Phoenix, customers who request a ride on the Uber app may be able to catch a ride with the Waymo Driver, through our partnership with Waymo.
We’re excited to bring another innovation to the Uber experience through today’s launch. When matched with a Waymo vehicle on Uber, riders can experience a fully autonomous ride, with no human driver behind the wheel:
How to ride with an AV: Starting today in Metro Phoenix, riders who request an UberX, Uber Green, Uber Comfort, or Uber Comfort Electric may be matched with a Waymo vehicle if the route is part of Waymo’s newly expanded operating territory—which includes Sky Harbor International Airport’s 24th St and 44th St SkyTrain locations—and a dedicated Waymo vehicle is available.
Update your Ride Preferences: Uber customers in Phoenix who are excited about riding in an autonomous vehicle (AV) can increase their chances of being matched with an AV by opting in via the Ride Preferences section of their Uber app under Settings.
Safety is a top priority: Safety is at the heart of what we do. That’s why we review our partners’ approaches to safety per our Safety Guidelines before they deploy and operate on the Uber network.
Convenience built in: Before a nearby Waymo vehicle is dispatched to a customer, we’ll first give them the option to accept the ride or find another. Once the Waymo vehicle arrives, riders will be able to unlock the vehicle and start the trip—all from the familiar Uber app. If assistance is needed at any time, riders will have access to 24/7 customer support, accessible in both the Uber app and inside the Waymo vehicle.
Make a sustainable choice: We’re committed to becoming a zero-emissions mobility platform by 2040. By helping to match riders with electric vehicles, like Waymo’s all-electric Jaguar I-PACE, we can help cut gas use, emissions per passenger, and make greener transportation options more accessible.
Today is an important step in our journey to bring safe, reliable autonomous driving technology to the Uber platform. Looking ahead, we expect that the number of human drivers and AVs on the Uber platform will continue to grow, side by side, for quite a long time as we continue to scale a hybrid, global network that combines both.
At Uber, we are building the future of transportation, which will be increasingly electric, shared, and autonomous. Welcome, Waymo! 💚
$GOOGL doesn't give guidance. $META does. When asked about the Middle East, META said it was causing Ads to be soft in Oct. That is what tanked it. Big mistake, Big, Huge.
BTW - The State Attorney's suing META for being addictive. But I don't think the States saw the META
VR Virtual Reality yet. When they do, it's going to hit the fan. I don't think the states will win for FB or Instagram, and Reels (version of tiktok) because all of the other social media like TikTok and Snap are worse. But the META is another story. META is creep city. Pedo galore.

Rep. Mike Johnson (LA) Wins Latest Secret Ballot – Is the New GOP Speaker-Designate
(Louisiana's 4th Congressional District.based in Shreveport-Bossier City)
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/10/breaking-mike-johnson-is-new-gop-speaker-designate/
(clips from article)
During the final round, Johnson reportedly received 128 votes, with Rep. Byron Donalds getting 29. He is now the fourth Speaker Designate for the House.
A strong advocate for national security, Johnson backed Trump’s travel ban on countries considered to be hotbeds of terrorism. He also served on Trump’s legal defense team during both the 2019 and 2020 Senate impeachment trials.
On the social front, Johnson is decidedly conservative. In 2022, he introduced the Stop the Sexualization of Children Act, aimed at preventing federally funded institutions from promoting the sexualization and transgenderization of children.
Additionally, Johnson is a personal friend with Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett.

Pershing Square’s Bill Ackman revealed Monday he covered his bet against long-term Treasurys, believing that investors may increasingly buy bonds as a safe haven because of growing geopolitical risks, the latest of which being the Israel-Hamas war.
“There is too much risk in the world to remain short bonds at current long-term rates,” Ackman said in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Monday morning. “The economy is slowing faster than recent data suggests.”
The billionaire hedge fund manager first disclosed his bearish position on 30-year Treasurys in August, betting on elevated yields on the back of “higher levels of long-term inflation.” The 30-year Treasury yield has risen more than 80 basis points since the end of August, making Ackman’s bet profitable. Bond prices move inversely with bond yields.

With all those protests. Demand for rides should be high. Or take the train with the crowds.
ATLANTA (AP) — Lawyer Sidney Powell pleaded guilty to reduced charges Thursday over efforts to overturn Donald Trump’s loss in the 2020 election in Georgia, becoming the second defendant in the sprawling case to reach a deal with prosecutors.
Powell, who was charged alongside Trump and 17 others with violating the state’s anti-racketeering law, entered the plea just a day before jury selection was set to start in her trial. She pleaded guilty to six misdemeanors related to intentionally interfering with the performance of election duties.
As part of the deal, she will serve six years of probation, will be fined $6,000 and will have to write an apology letter to Georgia and its residents. She also agreed to testify truthfully against her co-defendants at future trials.

Pro-Palestinian protesters invade the Capitol: More than 100 demonstrators are arrested after demanding Israeli ceasefire by staging a sit-down in a rotunda in the Congress complex
Pro-Palestinian protestors are taking over the U.S. Capitol as hundreds demand a ceasefire between Hamas terrorists in Gaza and Israel.
The demonstration comes a day after a bombing of a hospital in Gaza killed at least 500 Palestinians.
The protestors, dressed in black shirts that read 'JEWS SAY CEASEFIRE NOW' and 'NOT IN OUR NAME' took over the large rotunda in the Cannon House Office Building.
